Anyway... this is the dirtiest I've ever seen kickballs be, besides the obligitory nut shot on America's Funniest Home Videos. And I like it.

Oh, and how did you get the damned cake to stay on the ball?
Chestnuts roasted by Scelestus Unus @ 09/08/2003 02:46 AM EST
Ah, sake. Or should I add an "accent aigue" (ALT 130) to distinguish saké from the English word sake (rhymes with cake)? Anyhow, I'm quite the animé fan (in my case I'm more of a fan of series than the sort of one-shot animé films that critics and Academy voters like) and animé is Japanese, just like saké. So, for a couple of Christmases in a row, since I like one thing that's Japanese, my parents get me some saké to complete the "liking Japanese stuff" circle. Now, I had tried saké once before, at a restaurant, and it's pleasant enough tasting, tasting sort of like rice and sort of like wine (well, duh, it's rice wine). But, it's not the sort of thing I can drink every night, like beer, and it's not the sort of alcohol I can really mix into a drink, like with vodka. So, basically, I had three bottles of the stuff lying around for a couple of years, until I made a remarkable discovery... the stuff is excellent to drink if you wake up an hour or two before you actually want to get up and want to get back to sleep, but you don't want to drink a whole beer or a vodka screwdriver and either knock yourself out for many hours, or wake up in a woozy state. It gets you relaxed enough to get back to sleep if you're a little nervous (like I always am), but the effects are completely gone by the time you wake up. Okay, I'm sure any other not-too-hard liquor would probably work just as well, but saké is actually meant to be drinken warm, so you can keep a bottle of the stuff in your room and not have to walk all the way to the fridge, and, of course, saké is actually fairly cheap compared to most non-malt liquor alcohol. So, I can produly declare, doing my finest Sean Connery impression, that, yes, "I like sacky".

By the way, when I talk about having some saké to get back to sleep, I mean one or two little sips, from one of those little ceramic cups that saké usually comes with (at least at Quebec SAQ locations)... I'm not talking about pouring yourself a whole glass of saké, because, you know, if you drink that amount, then you are drinking something 3 or 4 times stronger than beer, and you will be out like a light for hours.
Chestnuts roasted by Steve Brandon @ 09/08/2003 03:59 AM EST
I'm glad you cleared that up. I had an image of you battering into, like, a whole bottle. That would definately knock you right out. I've never tried the stuff myself, the oppertunity has never presented itself.
Oh, and good job on the continuing kickball tomfoolery, Matt. You truly are a nutcase :)
Chestnuts roasted by Sparky @ 09/08/2003 05:50 AM EST
Against my better judgement, I'm just gonna go ahead and ask this. Why in that top picture of Hulk are his shorts partially opened?
Chestnuts roasted by Hellpop! @ 09/08/2003 06:40 AM EST
Poor Hulk--you've really got to sympathize with the guy. I mean, I think we've all been there at one time or another. I did it without the wine, but that's cuz I'm straight-edge. But poor Hulk. "Oh my sweet pea cake woman"? Lol.

Chestnuts roasted by spazzamatic @ 09/08/2003 09:35 AM EST
"how did you get the damned cake to stay on the ball"
my guess would be gravity.
Chestnuts roasted by mannik @ 09/08/2003 09:48 AM EST
More likely, the cake stays on the ball due to friction and surface tension. Gravity would want to bring the cake down off the ball.
Science!

I'm not too clear on my Shortcake history, but didn't she have fruit-themed friends? Hulk should hook up with one a' dem. cherry's better than strawberry anyway.

Rainbow Bright could Kick Strawberry Shortcake's ass anyday of the week, Hulk should go for her.

the saga continues....will hulk ever get her back or will he be driven to ball-suicide...
o yeah as im reading this i am eating some TGI Friday's potatoe skins from your grocers freezer section. You should try them matt they are...well...interesting...Maybe worthy of a review...when i opened the box i was like "WTF is this!" They looked very unlike what was on the box...there are no microwave directions, so i made up some of my own, since i dont like to wait for the slow ass oven to preheat for an ahour... -_-;
Taste-wise...um...random sized from very large to very small, dry half eaten potatos topped with balls of radioactive cheese product(probably not cheese) and more "bacon" than a double western from carls...what's not to love...but im sure skeletor could devise a plan for world domination with them somehow...anyways later this week im gonna try the chicken qeusodilla wrap thingys of the same brand...we'll see what happens.

The balls have been set in motion. It is now inevitable.
Prepare for Part III!
Also, didn't you say the archives would be up by now?
Chestnuts roasted by "MR. GAME & WATCH" @ 09/08/2003 04:05 PM EST
No no no! That'll take a while, but like the balls, those wheels are in motion. The Halloween theme should be creeping on this week, though. It's nice. :D
Chestnuts roasted by Matt @ 09/08/2003 04:06 PM EST
maybe hulk can get up with strawberry shortcakes bigger sister? Shes freakin' huuuuuge! She would easily dwarf hulk though...but thats not a problem if hulk doesnt have any esteem issues.
Chestnuts roasted by kennef @ 09/08/2003 04:23 PM EST
archives?? i remember those.....ahh yes, the good old days when all of x-e's illustrious history was cronologically laid out for my convienience. but i think they are gone, gone like the quickies and the animalia sections.... it is a dark, dark day. whered i put the sake?

Heeloyd-- Fridays' spinach artichoke dip is scrupmtious and microwaves up like nobody's business. Don't nuke it for as long as they tell you to, though-- if it's still cold in the middle, just stir it up and all will be kosher.
On a side note, that Shortcake sure is a ball-buster, eh? Haha, ball-buster, get it? What is it about this saga that makes me have to type all of these terrible jokes...?
Must be the lack of ANY RESPONSE AT ALL to my cries for a Burple article. >_<
Chestnuts roasted by freakachu @ 09/09/2003 02:44 AM EST
hmm...maybe ill try that dip next week :D
The new chili cheese and sour cream onion varieties of cheez-its are really good too.

Totally innert and innocent objects and you turn them into something dirty and swarmy. Brillant, just brillant Matt. Keep it up. You made my day.

Oh. My. God.
Matt somehow managed to take snack cakes, kickballs, and children's toys and create something so utterly, utterly obscene. I feel like I just got done watching midget porn.

Yet another reason why I would gladly let Matt stab me in the face if he wanted to. He's just that damned cool.

What do you mean my "rice wine commentary" is a tangent? Well, okay, it is, but at least it's on-topic, based on something found in the actual article... well... photo story. And I don't think Matt will ever do an article about any liquid that isn't Hi-C related.
