The Because Thread
-
Because I'm watching the episode of Teen Titans where this guy named Nigel takes over the world and there are a lot of Beatles references, I laugh and commend them for including The Beatles. For example...there's a yellow "boat" floating on the streets. Four of them are running through Abbey Road. The taken-over version of the city looks like the beginning of Yellow Submarine. At one point, Nigel transforms into something that looks like a Blue Meanie. Because just about every American show that have British people in it and at least one of them is named Nigel, is that a stereotype or something?
-
Because I agree with angryninja; the name Nigel is seemingly the stereotype of British people in American television shows. And what's with the British butlers? What? Can't us Yanks be butlers too? And Hispanic maids? What's with stereotypes?
-
Because I'm not sure how to answer that question, I don't know how to react to this.
-
Because...angryninja and I are both in the audience, you guys start talking and we'll just listen. -loves irony-
-
-Notices just now- Oh wow, you're right! -Waits in the audience- -Whispers to Crossover: Because we're in the audience, I'm going to the snack stand. You want anything?-
-
-whispers back- No. Unless you see one of those nifty Ipod vending machines like at Dillards. In which case, grab one. I'll pay you back. Other than that, I'm good. -smiles gratefully-
-
All righty then. -Walks to the concession stand- -Sees an iPod vending machine and gets a random-coloured iPod nano with video camera- -Gets popcorn and soda as well- -Returns back to the screening room- All right, I got your iPod. You owe me $150. ;D Because I wonder why there are such machines in airports and places, I'm guessing people want to buy an empty iPod for the long plane ride home. You know, to keep them occupied. Because empty iPods always keep people occupied!
-
Because the words "buying and empty Ipod" reminds me of the article I read about the Yellow Submarine Limited Edition Ipod that's going to be sold at Bloomingdales that's going to be filled with Beatles music. They are only making one hundred. Because...I'm still waiting to gain possession of the John and George replica guitars, I'm going to refrain from asking to have it. Expected to be released just in time for the holidays! -sobs- -gives angryninja $150.- Because I owed her that much for the Ipod. -puts Beatles music on-
-
Because the John and George replica guitars somehow remind me that Nintendo's cutting the prices on Wiis, I should use my "rainy day" money and get it, since mine doesn't work anymore.
-
Because I have to leave the computer now...
-
Because: Ebony, and Ivory... Ok, all right! Here's another one. It should be easier: Another Day Another day? How I wish it were a world away. Now it?s just a song I sing today, Today is just, another day. Miraculously? All this stuff I do mischievously, Crashed around me, now it?s crushing me, Today is just, another day. Some?girl? Came along, and I sang my favorite song. Now?she?s? Bugging me, now I wish, she?d run along. Another day? How I wish that I was flying free. Now this girl is hanging on to me, Oh today, is just, another day.

Because I'll miss Kiriwana and I'll be very excited when she returns. Because...I'm touched by the wonderful writing's of edwardsoul and her story Lost. Even though Twilight sucks (pardon the pun, if you will), it is still an amazing and wonderful story... But it's so long... She should change the names and publish it. It very well could be a story of it's own. Because...it's an amazing story? Oh, I don't know!

because I was so exhasuted & never heard the alarm clock go off & overslept & the little bugger had exactly 7 minutes to get in gear before the school bus came Talk about frazzled!
-
Because... I had a bad day... I will leave before I rant about it all over again. Because...I had a bad day...
-
Because you had a bad day You take it one down You sing a sad song and you turn it around You say you don't know You tell me, don't lie You're working a smile, and you go for a ride You had a bad day. ...Sorry, I just had to do that.

Because, lately I've decided to be paparazzi for Stevie Riks. I'm a very BAD person Joko Nono rips Don Lemmon Rafael Lamao Reports: ?Don is holding our breakup against me,? complains Joko Nono, former wife of the fantastic Doos, singer and guitarist Don Lemmon. Joko Nono claims to have written a poem to Don as a complaint against his insistence of not letting Ca Ching (no autographs) Barr sing the song she claims to have written, Mellow Tubmarine. After Don?s breakup with Joko, he left with Joko?s long time friend, Ping. Joko claims that she was the one who introduced Don to Ping in an effort to keep peace between the two. ?I was worried about Don,? explains Joko. ?I didn?t want him to get lonely and become vulnerable to fans that would ill use him. I knew Ping would be good to him. He?s a very sensitive man.? McHardley fan to Joko: ?YOU LIE!? Belinda Debunk Reports: ?YOU LIE!? says McHardley fan to Joko Nono according to the unverified Doos Watch Daily. Fan rebukes Joko severely after Joko writes letter to Don Lemmon complaining that the Doos were not allowing Ca Ching (no autographs) Barr to sing her song, ?Mellow Tubmarine.? The fan (name withheld for privacy and integrity reasons) told Doos Watch reporter Amy Seeya, ?She did not write that song nor did she even write the poem. Joko has no rhyme nor rhythm abilities. Everybody knows that. She used to sit in the recording room with the Doos and riffle through their works. She could never come up with anything by herself. Saul wrote that song, and Saul wrote that poem.? The fan also claims that long time hero, Saul McHardley is also no longer with the Doos, but for reasons other than previously rumored. ?Saul is dead,? says the fan. ?He died in a car wreck while trying to rhyme spoon with June.? When asked about the current Saul McHardley, the fan said, ?This Saul is a bad guy. He has no soul. I think this Saul is pretending to be Joko to break up the band.? When asked how Saul could be pretending to be Joko, while at the same time stating Joko was lying, the fan said, ?No comment. It?s too complicated.? Radically Read claims Saul McHardley supporting ?Give up peanut butter cups? Day Belinda Debunk Reports: According to the Radically Read quoting unsubstantiated sources, Saul McHardley, one of the members of the fantastic Doos, has been reported as rallying around efforts to curb Global Warming by supporting ?Give up peanut butter cups? Day. He came upon the idea from some boy scouts in the USA when they asked people to give up peanut butter cups to reduce their chances of obtaining tooth decay. ?Sugar use has been increasing to the point that the average person in the UK and the USA eats the equivalent of several pounds per year,? Saul was quoted. ?The growing of food crops amounts to 1/3 of the total agriculture, and even with that amount, already, salinization of soil is occurring in third world countries where poor soil conservation practices are observed. Furthermore, since the 1960?s the Green Revolution has led to the use of fossil fuel based fertilizers, herbicides, and pesticides, that are linked to increases of cancer.? Saul, who is a vegan, argues that the practice of eating cows is also leading to Global Warming, all by itself. ?I?m not going to ask people to go vegetarian,? says Saul, ?but to at least give up peanut butter cups for one day. If everyone gave up peanut butter cups for a day, that could save loads of sugar, thus the need for its production. Therefore, more cow pies could be used instead of petroleum products for fertilizers, saving millions of people from cancer.? Attempts to verify the story by this news paper have resulted in no comments from any of the Doos. However, studies have been found stating statistical evidence that 80% of crimes are committed within 24 hours after the eating of bread. So Saul, you just may be on to something. Saul McHardley in love with girl-friend; turns down Girl Scouts Joe Blow Reports: Saul McHardley, one of the ever illusive fantastic four Doos singer, has apparently become too smitten with present girl-friend, Pansy Shovel to pay attention to an attempt recently to 1000 American Girl Scouts. Upon obtaining information that Saul was expected to dine at the Bunnyfood Restaurant, from unreliable sources, they hastily made reservations at that restaurant in order to obtain autographs and pictures of their fabulous hero. ?I?m just so excited,? screamed Dippy Peeps, one of the anticipating Girl Scouts, just moments before she fainted from the overwhelming expectation of it all. But all their exertion resulted in grave disappointment, as on the day expected, there was no Saul. Perhaps he thought it better not to receive the fawning attention of the girls under the observing eyes of his new girl-friend.
