Day 2: Mashed Potatoes Day and Obama's Dimples

[Writer]

My dentist didn't do a good job judging my bite, so my left jaws are sore from bad chewing. I'm now sitting before my laptop with a large helping of mashed potatoes from my local Boston Market. The dentist and I will see each other again later today.



So now I ask: Will Barack Obama's dimples bring more mashed potatoes to needy American citizens? Will The Dimples bring us better dental care? If I concentrate on The Dimples enough, will it aleve the pain that many Americans feel... in their lower right jaws?

I wonder... WWBODD?

[Adelante]

7. OMG, how very adorable nt

[Guava Jelly]

4. Potatoes are the food of the devil!

Sorry about your teeth my friend.
I truly believe his dimples could bring about whirled Peas.

11. Just don't be casting asparagus on him!

:silly:

[Writer]

15. That would provide more balance. But I wonder...

Is the plural "asparaguses" or "asparagii?"

:shrug:

WWBODD?

[redqueen]

21. Blasphemy!

Potatoes are amazingly versatile and delicious!

[Writer]

23. But they ARE devilish. If I keep eating them, I get more dimples...

where I don't exactly WANT dimples.

[redqueen]

32. Heheheh....

well as long as we don't overindulge, everything should be fine. :)

Besides, I like being chubbilicious. :P

[Guava Jelly]

35. Repent spud sinner!!

Carbs are lil demons hell bent on possessing the waistline. :evilgrin:

[Writer]

38. Actually my lil demons are named chocolate, raspberry, and rum.

:P

Oh... and mean Obama supporters.

[Guava Jelly]

45. You want a piece of me Hil_ot!!!

:mad: :loveya:

[Writer]

46. Well I'd like to see you take a piece you... Obam...

Obam... what are those names again? I'm not very good at that.

[Guava Jelly]

47. I should remember the names

The children here sure pounded them into our skulls enough.
BTW you are my favorite Hillary supporter,and of course one of my dearest buds :pals: :loveya:

[Writer]

49. Thaaaaaaaaanks!

:loveya: :hug:

[redqueen]

39. Ah no... if enjoying potatoes is a sin,

then I'll happily roast in hell, for I am not giving them up!

[Adelante]

6. Does he have dimples?

I never noticed :dunce:

[Writer]

8. He has the dimples that will change America.

;)

[Adelante]

10. If any dimples can, it will be his

I agree.

[Terran]

9. One sees no dimples. n/t

[Writer]

13. I see two long dimples on the side of his cheeks.

They look pinchable.

[Terran]

30. Those are dimples?

I mean, yes, he was an amazing smile. But I thought a dimple was like an indentation...those are more like folds, and almost everyone has those when they smile.

Not important. Hope you feel better.

[FrenchieCat]

17. There aren't any.......

which is why I posted the photo. So that writer would know what dimples look like, since he is obviously more than concerned about Obama's.

In fact, Writer is soooo concerned, he wrote this same OP yesterday....with a slightly different title, something about "drooling" at Obama's dimples. :eyes:
http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=view_all&address=132x5520176

I'm not sure what the motive is, but obviously there is one; perhaps to "objectify" Obama as a sport or something? Maybe we should ask writer about this. I don't recall writer being an Obama supporter....but I may be wrong.

[Writer]

19. First of all "Writer" is a woman.

Or last I checked.

Second, this is a lighthearted post with no other motivation than just to have some fun with the fact that I've been suffering over my teeth for the last couple of days and Obama has an incredible smile.

But if you need to make this into something evil, go right ahead.

[FrenchieCat]

24. I'm a bit on edge these days......

as everything seems game.

I thought after that excellent photo of Prez "O" was posted yesterday, and Michelle's looks being commented on after her appearance last on on the Colbert Report, that this might be this taking it to a different level, and somehow ridiculing those who may admire the Obamas and the fact that they are very nice people to look at.

This photo was pretty popular yesterday.

[Writer]

26. Don't worry about it.

I didn't read that Michelle Obama thread... people had bad things to say about her appearance???

[FrenchieCat]

29. A couple......one Hillary supporter said taht

Michelle didn't look as good as Iman, the Black Somalian model married to David Bowie. And another who implied that the Beautiful women are to be found in Los Angeles, or some dumb shit like that. :eyes:

[Writer]

31. Uhhhh... that's a little weird.

I hate comments on other people's appearances. As if we all walk around like Adonis and Venus.

I saw Michelle Obama on The Colbert Report and I thought she looked lovely.

[DearAbby]

12. Now try:

She sells sea shells by the sea shore.


:::runs away giggling:::

[Writer]

14. Mean! Mean! MEAN!

BTW: It came out: "She shells shee shells by the shee shore."

((sigh))

[DearAbby]

25. I hope you get to feeling better soon

seeing the dentist is no fun, do keep us posted on the dimple situation :hi:

[Writer]

27. Shanks. n/t

[bunnies]

16. This would be funnier if Obama actually had dimples.

Just sayin.

[Writer]

18. What are those things on his cheeks, then?

Those are dimples!!!

[FrenchieCat]

20. They are creases.......many of us have them.

I have them, when I smile. But they are not dimples. My daughter has dimples. Obama does not.

[Writer]

22. Gosh... okay. You're right, you're right.

I'll make sure that I'll call them creases, from here on out. I'll remember that. CREASES, not dimples. Thanks, FrenchieCat!

[FrenchieCat]

28. That's what I'm here for......

to make sure that we don't inavertently invite a Dimplegate or something. :shrug:

[Writer]

36. Dimplegate.

Where good candidates die young...



... very young.

((That's not mine.))

[FrenchieCat]

40. Very Cute....and yes, dimpled.

[Terran]

33. Saddam Hussein

He had a dimple.

http://www.britannica.com/eb/art/print?id=28054&articleTypeId=1

Ergo, dimples are actually evil.

[Writer]

37. No, that's a cleft!

[Terran]

44. Meh...it's borderline cleft, maybe

More of a dimple, to me. But the idea is, a dimple is an indentation that's not caused just by smiling...one has it all the time. These distinctions are important! O.o

[bunnies]

34. imho, they're lines.

Dimples are like this:

[Catherine Vincent]

41. Nice pic of Obama!

You guys remind me of all our Patrick Fitzgerald pic threads!

[futureliveshere]

42. You elitist.. Haven't you heard the food riots? How dare you eat potatoes.

:hi:

get well soon..BTW BO doesn't have dimples.

[Writer]

43. I'd like to still call them dimples, if you don't mind.

Because WWBODD? wouldn't have the same ring as WWBOLD?

[taterguy]

48. I really like that old John Lee Hooker song Dimples

Thanks for reminding me to listen to it
