"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

This came up again...

Where did "I'm wearing xxx on my head right now and it's fucking great" come from?

And I'm thinking the answer should be in the FAQ.

You sip / say it's your crazy / straw say it's you're crazy / as you bicycle your soul / with beauty in your basket

I was going to suggest.

If I only had a brain...

Okay. Add this to Jargon:

Q. "I'm wearing X on my head right now and it's fucking great"?

In March of 2002 the inimitable Fayjay said:

See, we just illustrated the glorious affirmative process that is online communities.

Person A: I...I kinda like to wear rubber gloves on my head and pretend to be a chicken. Sometimes. Er. For a laugh, you know?
Person B: I do that every weekend.
Person C: I'm wearing a rubber glove on my head right now and it's fucking great! Those non-rubber-glove-wearers (henceforth to be called NRGW) don't know what they're missing!
Person A: Yeah!
Person B: Let's set up our own forum at World Crossing.

[Rebecca Lizard did the hard work of looking this one up. I just copy-pasted.]

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

From this, Jon.

edit: never mind.

No other candidate is asking the hard questions, like "Did geophysicists assassinate Jim Henson?" or "Why is there hydrogen in America's water supply?" --defective yeti

The question should include "right now" because we've used the thing to say "I'm slaughtering a sheep right now and it's fucking GREAT!!" Oh, we should have a big Internet poll about which words to capitalize and how many exclamation points to use.
