The Digression Thread

Discursives of the world unite! (which reminds me of a funny story...)

I really love creating new threads. Coleridge, on the other hand, taught me to dread the sea.

1. Coleridge wrote often under the influence of laudanum
His poem Kublai Kahn is rife with iconography common to opium eaters.

2. That must be why you refer to him as Oleridge.
Which reminds me - must check the terror alert. Wouldn't want to pick a clashing tie.

3. Coleridge is one of my favorites! I love him!
You know he wrote while high. I could never write while I was stoned. I get too giggly. Oh my God, I had the giggles so bad the other night. I couldn't stop. Oh, speaking of not being able to stop, my brakes are making this weird noise.

4. The weird noise could be caused by dust. Dust can be used to enhance pot
so you get even higher. When your as high as possible try to write. Then see if it sounds like Coleridge's peotry.

5. Coffee leaves this bitter aftertaste in my mouth sometimes.
I hope my breath doesn't smell like all of those teachers I had in high school that drank three or four cups each morning.

6. THIS THREAD BORES ME.
My thought exactly. "The Passion of Christ" could never match the passion of "Jesus Christ Superstar," too many ditties, not enough meat. And those godawful costumes.

7. Costume makers can be creepy people, by the way.
Have you ever noticed that? Have you ever noticed that they live in funereal little stuffy rooms which always seem to have cobwebby ceilings? Or that they like to eat animal crackers? Or occasionally steal a glance at your fishnet-stockinged leg peeking out of the side of your skirt? Or that they inevitably have that statue of Buddha, forlorn and neglected - peering out from under a chair in a horrible state of disrepair?

8. I forgot what color of underwear I'm wearing.
It's either black boxer-briefs or gray boxer-briefs. Probably black, since this is a Monday.
