I've been catching up on my newsgroup/BB stuff today, and of course there is a lot of disturbing stuff here. So I have a question.
Has anyone actually SEEN UBB sucking purple monkey balls? (If you have, could you please post pictures so the rest of us can see it too?)
If you have not actually seen it, but have only heard of it, or suspect it, could you please modify your comments appropriately, ie, "I have heard that UBB sucks purple monkey balls", or, "I believe that UBB sucks purple monkey balls". To actually state that it is true without proof is slanderous, and should not be tolerated in this gentle forum with which we have been blessed.
I am finally starting to get the hang of this curious game. You know, once you tame out the nose bounce, and get to fly and fight and argue a bit on Ch1, it feels a lot like AW.

You sick fly! :)
Hiya Mosca, good to see ya.

Actually, I have a question of far greater importance.
Are "purple monkey balls" the balls of a purple monkey, or are they purple balls on a normally colored monkey?
This ties into a similar mystery from the song "Papa Was a Rolling Stone. The song says "when he died all he left us was..."
Is that "alone" as in by ourselves? Or is it "a loan" as in a debt needing payment?
I mean, the song says he's a deadbeat, right?
IMHO that song was trouble enough without that tard Rotor mucking up the works further.

Have you thought we might be dealing with a higher concept in both cases ... duality perhaps? UBB might well suck both the balls of a purple monkey as well as the purple balls of a blue monkey. And poppa could have left them alone with a loan. *ShruG*
I'm glad someone is FINALLY taking these subjects seriously, however. :D

Well, I can answer the question about the song. Papa did not leave them "a loan", BECAUSE he was a deadbeat; without credit, he couldn't get a loan to leave them. What is referred to is that he left them "alone", because everything else was repossessed.
However, WHICH Rolling Stone was Papa? Most likely, Brian Jones; all the others are still alive, for one, and for another they are all very rich. This hypothesis is further corroborated by the date of Brian Jones' death, July 3rd; only the month was changed, to September, so as to rhyme with "remember". All other aspects of the date match. So, Papa was Brian Jones.
Then this brings up ANOTHER question; why is a skinny white English kid father to a black Motown vocal group? Even speaking metaphorically, the Temptations owe nothing musically to the Stones; however, the Stones DID cover the Temptations. My conjecture is that "PWARS" authors Whitfield & Strong are referring to the royalties generated by the Stones' covers of various soul classics; it is an oblique reference to the Stones as "sugar daddies".
As to the question of the monkey balls, I have no answer, as no one has come forth with PROOF that UBB does such a thing; for all we know, the phrase means that UBB sucks regular monkey balls until they are purple, then stops. Until I see the proof, I for one am witholding judgement (not the least of which is the obvious implication that there is something WRONG with sucking purple monkey balls; after all, isn't our culture replete with phrases such as "do your own thing", "whatever", "it's all good", "different strokes for different folks", etc? Why are we all looking down on purple-monkey-ball-suckers as if they were BAD?)

In reference to "UBB sucks purple monkey balls", perhaps we're looking at this entirely the wrong way.
(http://www.garrettspecialties.com/assets/images/zoo_animals.JPG)
Garrett Specialties: Purple Monkey Balls and Other Stress Relievers in the Shapes of Zoo Animals (http://www.garrettspecialties.com/html/zoo_animals.htm)
It's not the complete answer but we may be getting closer. If I can find evidence of UBB sucking any of these I will post it forthwith.
(Is it possible that it was a misquote and should read "UBB posters squeeze purple monkey balls" or "UBB posters should squeeze purple monkey balls to relieve stress"?)

What about this? I always thought it was a Ribena Blackcurrant.... but well, it's round and it's purple.... :)

Wish I could delete! LOL.... finally settled on simple URL, so you will have to find and view the pictures yourselves! I think the individual picture URLs were just too long.

Considers the phrases:
"sucks purple monkey balls"
"Hope this finally works! Sorry for quality of the pictures, used my webcam"
And ponders...
-
This is confusing.
All I know is Flossy is the AW centerfold, and Arlo is fighting Roto to take that title from her.
Why? You all seem happy being infatuated by purple monkey balls, why stir the pot? Just join Aces High and be happy. We won’t vote for either.
Look, the AH community doesn’t get the monkey testicular references, see?
Although your stumbling, almost embarrassingly to try and be witty, it’s painfully clear your not entertaining. Don’t blame us for observing the obvious. Just fly and make a name for yourself that way.
Otherwise watching Arlo trying to unseat Flossy as “Miss AW” on our well working BBS will be a bit humiliating to the AW crowd, if not funny as fuk to everyone reading. :)
Carry on.

LOL! It's just a bit of fun, Creamo - y'know... humour? :)
As for me being a centrefold - ROFL!! I am definitely not centrefold material - just ask anyone who's met me! Or see my Profile pic (few years old now though) ;)

Shrug. I was just having fun with the concept, trying to diffuse the anger. Sorry, I won't try again.

I'm very sorry you feel this way, Creamo. I appreciate you don't understand our silly humour, but was it really doing anybody any harm?
Actually, although I posted in this thread, I don't really mind these boards, even though I do prefer NNTP. However, I have had a bit more time to get used to them than the new influx of AWrs coming here now have. I think, in time, they too will get more used to these boards and the fact they are UBB will become less of a big deal.
Meanwhile, please excuse our attempts at injecting a little humour into these boards - no malice is intended... :)

Actually, I think some of yas are a little tooooooooooooooooooooo apologetic. Creamo was just razing yas. I thought the fact that he has been following the beauty contest means it is interesting to him. So Flossy, what are you going to wear for Swimsuit round? I think I might steal Mage's blue speedos.

actually creamo is humorous. Humor that I understand anyway. Some of my best laughs were after reading creamo's post's. I definately don't understand the purple monkey nutts anyway ;)
<S>
-
I believe it's "Purple Monkey Ball" (tm) from Garrett Specialties. Look upthread for the link. It'd make a great xmas gift for creamo. :)
-
In order for Creemo to understand "Purple Monkey Balls(tm" , he needs to understand the "What kind of monkey are you?" post.
Additionally, he needs to understand the concept of purple balls. Too much whacking off, and he'll never get purple ballsto contemplate. :)

OK. Why? I haven't participated in any of the other AW vs AH threads. I have not taken potshots at you, or anyone. I have no sides in the matter. I simply found the idea that someone would say "UBB sucks purple monkey balls" to be absurd (neither true nor untrue, but an odd construction), and followed it a little. And then I did the same with the "Papa was....".
Truth be told, I find you unfriendly. I did nothing but write some slightly whacky lines. If you found them to be not to your liking, then you should have ignored them.
And if you find the accusation of "unfriendly" to be laughably weak, well, sir, I maintain that, in a game based on the strength of its community, that is the strongest accusation of all. I challenge you to prove me wrong.

Oh man! He sure got us all real good. So he MUST be the funniest guy here after all! :D
Want a Purple Monkey Ball (tm) for Xmas?
:p

Sorry, Mako. Here's where it's my turn to be miffed. I don't play troll games, I don't play newsgroup/BB wars. It's not my idea of fun. Obviously this is not the place for me, so I bid you adieu. Perhaps we will see more eye to eye in the game.
Until then,

LOL mosca, for a start, I didn't play the troll games, Creamo got Rotor, Arlo, Ratbo et al going, not me. I just pointed out that with a couple of well chosen sentences he had you all tripping over yourselves. Arlo saw the funny side, it's not impossible to do you know.
You are being a bit thin skinned if you take offense after the post YOU made to start. If that wasn't a troll thread, what was it? It certainly wasn't aimed at a discussion of the game.
Lighten up and enjoy the board, don't join the flame wars if you don't want to but don't take the moral high ground after opening the way you did here. ;)
Oh and I am sure in the game we will see eye to eye but remember, if you're not a rook, there'll be a gunsight between us. :D

Well; the only thing I can think of at the moment sporting purple balls is Boroda's flea infested cat.
(http://www.nnm.ru/pict/kittybath.jpg)
At least, I think thats a cat. Could be a terrorist monkey doing a Depends commercial.

Good Cod man. Is that cat dipped in milk, flour and in the procoess of being lowered into a deep fat fryer??

What's it taste like? :D

From what i could gather 'PAPA' was indeed a rolling stone but quite the horticulturalist with a southern drawl in his accent.
What he in fact left them was a LAWN :)
surely you heard that? :) clear as a bell to me and im way over here in the UK :D

"...there's been talk all around town
Sayin' that Papa had three outside children and another wife ...And that ain't right!"
Damn straight ... let them children inside!

OK, I went away for a few days and came back. Yeah, I was a little out of line. Sorry.
I can be a bit thin-skinned, I admit. Most times, I just wait a while before posting, this time I didn't.
In the arena the two communities have become one rather quickly. I don't intend to stand in the way of that happening here.
A LAWN? Hmmmmmmm. Now, I hadn't considered that possibility. If, like most children, the Temps hated yardwork, that would account for the generally downbeat tone of the song; a sort of suburban Sisyphus myth, eternal lawncare. Just by the time they get done with the edging, the grass needs to be cut again. Nothing else, no home, no car, no WORLD other than that damned yard. Yup, that might be the key.

Go to the screenshots and images forum and look under "Posting sig pics" thread. Good description there of how to work around the BB restrictions.

Thanks. I was looking in the BB Faq, and I kept posting either html coding or photopoint links, that's why all the "edit"s, I was trying to get a "killer sheep" pic.
