butt cupper...  that's a new phrase for me

Made "butt cupper" up when my girls were teenagers and we were going over modesty rules when shopping. No butt cuppers! Now, Morticia was not held to the same standard. She can get away with it.

I started off with a different user name, taken from the novel Jane Eyre.  It fit me well.  Then, one day, Chestertonian and Der Kopf were "woot woot"-ing over hip-hop.  After I'd had more of it than I could stand (which is very little; I abhor hip-hop), I demanded a name change, in order to highlight the incongruity of hip-hop on a traditional Catholic forum.  I chose "Pon de Replay," which is a Rihanna song.  I once had a co-worker who was obsessed with Rihanna, and played Rihanna music constantly on her iPod.  So I'm pretty conversant with the Rihanna catalogue.  "Pon de Replay" is a particularly annoying selection.  It has an abrasive, "clickety-clack" staccato feel to it.  Rihanna isn't really hip-hop, technically speaking, but it's the same idea.  About the nicest thing I can say of Rihanna is that she's a very attractive (if brazenly immodest) young lady.  I can't post the video because of the immodesty issue.

Obviously it's a disastrous name selection, but I don't dare change it.  I rather like the notion of having to live with one's mistakes.  Albatrosses around necks.


erin is nice

When did kaesderkopf and i "woot woot" over hip hop?

also, i think of you every time "Daniel Tiger's Neighborhood" comes on and i always think about what it would be like if "mr brocklehursts neighborhood were a real show,but with daniel tiger-esque repetitive musical messages...one could be "sufjan stevens...ruins everything"

On this thread.  And I got it wrong; it wasn't "woot woot."  It was "arf arf."

Dear Jaca, please let me know if I am annoying you. I think me don't know when I am annoying. Sometimes I do, sometimes I dont. I enjoy you here. Wouldn't want to be The forum pest. Maybe I already am.

But you didn't need to fix it, Jaca. Any way I love your new avatar! How very militant! You will take up arms when needed. A real inspiration!
