I've seen honest faces before. They usually come attached to liars.

I don't think I'm intellectual enough to post in a Pynchon-titled thread.

You know in Vineland, his characters talked about TV alot. One of them got off on watching CHiPs.

What is even happening?

Thank you for saving me from asking msbelle what she meant by "pynchon".

I've seriously had a "Shock the Monkey" earworm (talk about a timeline of angst) since Monday, because it came on an internet radio station as the e-mails were flying fast and furious. So Natter 49 is always going to be a "Shock the Monkey" reference for me, even if we call it Natter 49: Shame Us.

If Gus is really dead, he's laughing at all that. If he's really alive, he's laughing at all that, and kicking himself for not being able to chime in.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

Haven't we had prophetical thread titles before?

That was more a summary than a prophecy.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Here are three things that happened in 49 AD:

  • Emperor Claudius marries his niece Agrippina the younger (approximate date).
  • Engagement of Nero and Octavia, daughter of Claudius.
  • Agrippina charges Octavia's first fiancĂ©, Julius Silanus, of incest. He is brought before the Senate and sentenced to death.

WTF?

Also, for P-C, 49 is the atomic number of indium.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I guess Natter 48 Contiguous States of Denial was prophetic, though.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

Nice!

If Gus is really dead, he's laughing at all that. If he's really alive, he's laughing at all that, and kicking himself for not being able to chime in.

I wonder if Gus would like the really, really awful thread title that came into my head. It's so bad I will whitefont it: Natter 49: Gus Who's Not Coming to Dinner.
