Drunk as a skunk, Entertaining babble Options

[D-Man]

Has anyone ever heard that saying? "Drunk as a Skunk"

Someone said that to me the other day; and i dont think i've ever seen a drunk skunk. What does that mean? "Drunk as a Skunk" I really dont understand it, Why make analogies that don't work; just because they rhyme?

Although it would be pretty fresh to see a Drunken Skunk crawlin all over the place; walking in little Skunk circles... Wakes up in the morning next to the Ugly Skunk Chick....

What do you guys think of this?

[x_itchy_b_x]

lol. that sounds like it could be a good stand up routine.
and i have no idea why it is as drunk as a skunk. Maybe, skunks like beer?

[DEATH]

Only in tx. That's all I have to say about that.

[Slick]

Maybe its because one is so drunk that they SMELL like a skunk.

[D-Man]

Well so do I, but i'm not a skunk...

And as a matter of fact; Skunks do not like (being sprayed with) Beer, or soda; Nor do they like it when you spray them with water guns; and throw canned goods at them, along with rocks, to make them go away from the little kids (who thought they were "kittys" )

[GriffGirl]

I've heard that expression tons of times... I grew up in Maryland and NYC, maybe it's an east coast saying?

[D-Man]

Maybe its because one is so drunk that they SMELL like a skunk.

But drunks smell like alcohol (and usually cigarettes) Skunks smell like animals... like a cat or a dog... Unless they spray; then they smell like cat p!ss

[thespacepanda]

I think a rant like this can only come from someone that is typing while drunk as a skunk.

[D-Man]

I am not D-Runk... I'm at work! Working Hard! Working Really REALLY Hard!! (on 6gc.net looking for gear for my car)

But i'm not drunk

-yet-

Maby after 5 when i get out of here

[Jeunesse]

This is one funny thread from the get go. I was laughing my ass off on that first entry.

[96bluevert]

I've heard that expression tons of times... I grew up in Maryland and NYC, maybe it's an east coast saying?

No, I think it's just an American thing b/c we like things that rhyme. lol I've heard it alot too and have lived in WA my whole life.

[x_itchy_b_x]

This thread is the Bees Knees

[D-Man]

This thread is the Bees Knees

!! !!

The wha? The "Bees Knees"!?!?

Now what is that supposed to mean? Do bee's even have knees?

See; This is what i'm talking about, "Bee's Knees", "Drunk as a Skunk", What the $#%& is this all about?

Any more?

[jcaron9gt4]

cool beans....i guess beans can be cool?

[D-Man]

"Cool Beans"

Yeah... That one works too (Works because it makes NO Sense whatsoever)

[97lestyousay]

Why do people wear their emotions on there sleeve? Why not a pants leg, or better yet on
the back of their jacket like a biker gang?

[D-Man]

Why do people wear their emotions on there sleeve? Why not a pants leg, or better yet on
the back of their jacket like a biker gang?

Or on their hats... Why would people wear their emotions at all? What if your emotions dont match your cloths... (not that i know anything about matching cloths )

Unless you had Orange emotions... Because Orange is cool...

[x_itchy_b_x]

you think entirely to much lol. pontificated on solving world hunger or something.

[D-Man]

Or not Enough

Orange is cool? idk about that but I think Blue is cool.

[D-Man]

Yeah- Everyone likes blue...

Illuminated blue used to be my FAVORITE color in the whole world.

But i just decited that i'll seperate myself from the herd, because Orange represents fun! I like fun.

[x_itchy_b_x]

blue and orange are complimentary colors

[illneversellmyce...]

my best bet would be cuz drunk and skunk ryhme, is why its used so much

[D-Man]

blue and orange are complimentary colors

Yeah, because that blue is a verry nice guy; and he's always complementing Orange, because Orange is such a Cool Guy. So Orange gives blue compliments even though he don't believe them; he just wants to be nice to his friend blue...

But nobody likes that Smart@ss Yellow.... And Brown is just an @sshole...

[GriffGirl]

cool beans....i guess beans can be cool?

okay, either you were born in the 70s and are showing your age or have an older sibling, because that is a TOTAL 80s expression!

eek I'm showing MY age!

Why do people wear their emotions on there sleeve? Why not a pants leg, or better yet on
the back of their jacket like a biker gang?

I like to stuff my emotions in the crack of my ass... They just dig into you, you're contstantly trying to pull them out without anyone noticing... Emotions, the Thong of Life.

im 20, but i do have 2 years experience in the 80's, so i guess thats where i picked it up from

Well... "The greatest thing sense sliced cheese/bread" works

But sliced cheese and sliced bread are pretty great inventions... IMO
Sliceing bread is harder than it looks; and no one would want you to "Cuting the Cheese" while your making their sandwitch!!

[GriffGirl]

Well fo shizzle my nizzle, skillet, but I'm just fresh out of ideas.

"curiousity killed the cat"

"satisfaction brought it back"

[GriffGirl]

Okay, I'm editing this and taking my original post back because I'm having paranoid thoughts that someone's gonna think I'm racist or something and I truly don't want to offend anyone. (I am SO not racist!) So instead, I present the following:
Snug as a bug in a rug
Happier than a pig in sh*t
Slipperyer/more slippery than snot
In like Flynn
Word to ya Muthah

I know I have more in me but I really am drawing a blank now!
