[Zomby Woof]

I do none of that. :P

[Zomby Woof]

30. well, you should

Your outlook on life will improve 100-fold. Ask SarahBelle, she is the leather expert on DU.

20. You bathe in a tub of goldfish crackers

While reading "Famous Yak Poems of the 18th Century" by Laod Ding Poo. That doesn't make you abnormal, except for the part where you caress your rubber duckie with canola oil.

[SarahB]

That reminded me of something I saw once. It's hilarious. Check it out:

[Zomby Woof]

I think if you don't quickly rub oil on SarahBelle's duckie, SOteric will leave yak poop on your lawn. This says nothing about your personality, but it does mean your lawn will be extra green and your bubblebaths more... memorable.

yak - Zomby

traffic - jam

toe - jam

enlightenment - Dalai Lama

peace - freedom

crackers - soda

[Zomby Woof]

53. there is nothing pedestrian

When you choose "Zomby" as an answer. I do worry that you harbor deep-seated anger about having to sit in the back seat of the car when going to the grocery store. No wait, that was me.

You often confused your mother with a jar of pickles. That wouldn't have been so bad except that we now have a woman in the WH with that nickname, and you never send her a Mother's Day card.

[buddhamama]

46. freaky

ZW, i had a dream last night in which i was playing a word association game with someone.

Normal people don't let yaks live in their head for free!! (Sure is nice and cozy in here)

[matcom]

[Zomby Woof]

[Commie Pinko Dirtbag]

64. Wow, that's a relief!

But... if the butcher is delivering the mail... what is the mailman up to??? GAAAAAAAA THEY'RE ALL AFTER ME!!!!

traffic: hell

toe: nail

enlightenment: ignorance

peace: PLEASE

crackers: wheat thins

[Zomby Woof]

70. You have a strange profile!

I think being a liberal in the Phoenix metro area causes much inner turmoil which can only be alleviated by beer.

[blondeatlast]

87. As long as one can find the damn bar!

I did have a lovely Killian's Red at Alice Cooper'stown, along with a delightful Frisco Burger.

[Zomby Woof]

88. fie on Killian's!

They are owned by the evil RW Coors beer people! Joseph Coors's wife sits on the board of Regent University in Virginia Beach, VA, Pat Robertson's school. Their vile liquid will never pass these lips. Coors himself was part of Reagan's "kitchen cabinet" when he was governor of CA. Argh!

Other than that, the burger sounded good, and next time, I will get you into better beer. :beer:

[blondeatlast]

108. I do need eddycated, truly...

I believe the Hotel Monte Vista, up your way, has something like 48 beers on tap!

[Zomby Woof]

109. We had our DK meetups there!

But I never had any of the beer, lol. :hi:

[blondeatlast]

110. Oh, noooooooooo... of course not! nt

[Bundbuster]

75. Analyzing the PYSCHO Zomby

Unable to afford a real shrink, I forwarded this thread to the esteemed Vatican philosopher, Father Guido Sarducci, who responded:

"Mr. Woof appears to have subliminabal herding and abandonment issues with both animals & people, no doubt caused by a chaotic nomadic upbringing on the Tibetan Steppes. I would indulge his obsessive need to round up DUer's into his threads by posting timely, soothing, and submissive (if banal) replies. Mr. Woof also exhibits the classic symptoms of "sudden infant coffee syndrome - 'SICS'," and should at all times be fortified with high-grade DU virtual caffeine."

[Zomby Woof]

76. damn that Guido!

He still owes me for that night of cheap whiskey and cigars.

[bigwillq]

77. Here's my list

mountain-range

pencil-pointy

tea-cup

lamp-light

yak-e-tee-yak (it's one word in my world)

[bigwillq]

79. What is that suppose to mean?

Analyze my answers some more, I want to hear your insight.

[Zomby Woof]

80. Let's just say

If you put your finger anywhere near my yak's orifice again, I will smite you with an oiled rubber duckie.

[bigwillq]

81. What if I put my thumb

near your yak's orifce?

[Zomby Woof]

82. then I expect

You will eat the plum. :-)

[bigwillq]

[Zomby Woof]

85. from what I can tell

You used to have an imaginary friend named Clyde, who got you in trouble for stealing your Mom's egg money. Clyde's in prison now serving a sentence for tax evasion. You have lousy taste in imaginary friends.

[greeneyedpookie]

86. You are

too much, having a huge giggle fit here. I just knew that Clyde was always up to no good, just couldn't keep him away, he was too much fun ;-) !! Thank you Zomby Woof, I will take your assessment seriously!!

lamp/black
yak/butter
traffic/jam
toe/jam
enlightenment/mantra
peace/corps

Not too original with the exception of the whole "tea" thing. I don't see how tea is funny but evidently it makes my subconsious laugh. :)

[Zomby Woof]

97. I think electro-shock is in your future

The cheapest way to do it in this age of unavailable and unaffordable health care is to just stick your finger in the nearest light socket. And don't forget the sock for your mouth.

baseball: God, do the Mariners suck this year. GO REDS!!!

[ComerPerro]

101. Being psychoanalyzed by a Mariners fan is like

going to your dentist for an oil change.

Either way, you are still going to need a haircut.

[Zomby Woof]

102. From soup to nuts

For all the unresolved hostility you have over the Mariners inflicting Ken Griffey Jr. on your sorry team, I just hope to hell you do NOT put ketchup on your hot dog. ;-)

Bow before my Ichiro t-shirt, toe-sucker! :P
