I think that people just get sidetracked and are easily unfocused. I know that I dont always post something relevant, but I do try.

I think that people talk about stuff and it reminds them of other stuff and Oh. My. God. Those fingernail clippers are so shiny. I wonder if there were any shiny dinosaurs...

Shiny dinosaurs? Send that idea to pokémon. They'll do it. They need ideas.

Why call them clippers... Why not.... Spraxels? Spraxels sounds more magical and intense.

Pokemon is so unoriginal anymore... It's like a monkey+a turtle= a murtle. Jeez. They'd probably just call it a shinosaur or something.

O.o Spraxels. I'd use them to see if they're more magical now except I just used them the other day.

You know, I think people trail off topic because they find newer and better things to expand upon that are prompted from the original topic, much in the same way one experiment can create a profound discovery of something COMPLETELY different than the original hypothesis.

Spraxel... that could be a pokémon, too, you know. Spraxel evolved into Spraxaxa!

Say that three times fast. :O

You know, I think you're right. Who wants to talk about being off-topic when you can talk Pokemon?

Spraxaxa evolved into... Spraxalhuactitchtlana! (The x's reminded me of Aztec cities... )

I get off track because that's how I talk. I talk in circles, so I'll eventually get back on topic, but I need some side tracks in the middle.

On the topic of pokemon, I have the theme song on my ipod, it's such an intense song. I only watched the show maybe 5 times as a kid, but jeeze, what an amazing theme song.

"You'll teach me and I'll teach you POKEMON!"

I agree... circles are fascinating. Have you ever looked up the Circles of Life on Wikipedia? It's amazing.

No. But I really do like the song in the Lion King. I love the Lion King. It's my all time favorite movie. I've slept with a stuffed Simba since I was 5 years old.

^ Shit like that happens. ^

Speaking of Circle of Life, at RYLA, my side of the cabin woke up the other half by blasting and obxosiouly singing it. We got death glares and several pillows thrown at us.

I've never seen The Lion King, nor Beauty in the Beast, and I only just saw The Little Mermaid last year.

;_;

This is disturbing. I wanna watch these movies. ;_;

I agree, Sean, you should go see them straightaway.

Incidentally, I happen to think this thread needs bananas

One banana decides he doesn't want to do the traditional PBJT dance so he goes off and does his own thang A little bit like this thread

I have actually done the banana dance in public. It's something everyone has to do at some point.
