Notice

If I can go through the rest of my life without hearing the phrase “sends the wrong message to children” or any variation thereof, that would be dandy.

Henceforth, any piece of writing that contains that phrase or any variation thereof will immediately be disregarded by me.

Thank you.

          1. I would continue this … but I cant get my font size to go bigger.

            I will tell you whenever someone with children says something about “the children” I always add “of the corn” It gives the snetence a whole knew meaning.

            Example

            What kind of message are we sending to the children of the corn.

  1. This message is obviously sending the wrong message to the ch…..errrr young people. I hear they are starting to read BANNED BOOKS. And I hear that they are starting to have Sympathy for the Devil. I think that you are Guilty, Imagine that!

    1. Damn, I forgot to bold certain words in that reply. Curses on LJ for not allowing editing of comments.

      Read that again and mentally bold BANNED BOOKS; Sympathy for the Devil; Guilty and Imagine

  2. Well… can we agree that it’s bad to send the wrong message to adults?

    Or at least bloggers?

    1. I never saw Children of the Corn. I don’t watch scary/suspenseful/creepy movies.

      This, of course, means that you will now start sending me screen captures, YouTube videos, and links to all the scary movies in the world. But really, that won’t bother me. I’ve explained to you before, THIS RIGHT HERE is what you must never, ever, ever send me because I can’t bear the horror:

      But in black.

      1. Children of the Corn isn’t a scary movie … It’s just about farm kids. It’s like Footloose only Amish. Seriously. Rent it, you’ll see. There isa this one scene where they dance in the cornfield, that sets my toe to tappin’!

      2. A friend of mine has that vehicle in black, actually.

        It’s a very VERY nice vehicle. It’s tall enough inside for him (he’s 6’4″, and has short legs and a LONG torso) and has plenty of space for hauling around lots of people comfortably. And it has heated seats, which are HEAVEN when it’s that time of the month and you’re having back cramps.

        However, it does get sad gas mileage (13-14 mpg), and that’s why he also has a tiny little Toyota pickup truck for toddling around town in.

  3. I live in the country and am surrounded by corn….these comments…ARE NOT FUNNY! Those damn kids are creepy, creepy, creepy. Hell, I think I’ve seen a few of them hanging out in front of the local diner. (shivers)

      1. I have nothing against the amish. As long as their creepy kids aren’t shoving someones face into a deep fryer or using a meat slicer to slice up hands. Other wise, it’s all good.

  4. LOL
    Fieldian words to remember … Children should be seen and not heard. Go away kid, you bother me. Why don’t you go out and play in traffic Which probably all sent the wrong message.Notice I didn’t add … Now jump back in bed, roll over, and get up again.

  5. It is really not advisable to read this comment exchange while drinking coffee. Now if you’ll excuse me, I need to clean my keyboard.

  6. Hey, I was just thinking… you know what would be a good sentence?

    “I was going to shoot you a look, but I didn’t, because it would send the wrong message to the children.”

    1. You left a couple of things out:

      “I was going to shoot you a look as I made my way across the room, but I didn’t because it would send the wrong message to the children and the dog would choke on it’s toy.”

      I’m going to ingest a bottle of Vicodin now.
