I also never thought of doing a Britney tie in. I don't think it was as obvious as you think.Everything's got something to do with the Templars
I remember them using the maltese cross for the X in old cartoons... Zoom in on this one, for example.
And for Tune, the comments I quoted related to a long slide from milf to trailer trash, followed by a quote about trying to capitalize on a child's fame. These are both notable aspects of Britney Spears' story. To me, it was amazing to have had the whole conversation without a Britney tie-in. To you, however, I'm sure it's amazing when you manage to put your shoes on the appropriate feet. It's a sliding scale.
Only one thing is certain: the further we discuss a joke the funnier it becomes.The best jokes are surprising at the time and obvious in retrospect. You're both right (or wrong).

You really don't need to read much into this, it's just an "oh man how could you not do a Britney joke with that much ammo" joke. Right now she's in the general news. And no, I certainly don't think the two of you should coordinate your posts, but sometimes I've seen jokes by different people build off each other in a process called "riffing" or more generally, banter. A non-humorous version is called "conversation."OK, well, all that popular culture adventure has gone right over my head. I couldn't even recognize a Britney Spears song (she's a singer, right?) as her. Has she shown a nipple at a Super Bowl halftime that I should recognize?
More to the point, you seem to imply that there should be some form of coordination between @Bill Lee and I on our cultural insight posts. Is there a board feature for that which I'm missing?

When the joke is "there's a link there to exploit," telling a third person the joke possibilities in granular detail self-evidently isn't funny. Nor will it get funnier if you keep asking me to do so. In fact, it just gets less funny. To me, it's just stupid and needy for you to continue to try to fight with me over a simple throwaway observation. Now you need there to be NO similarities! NONE! NO absurdity shall or can arise from the similarities already noted above!!! NONE!!!!!!What planet are you posting from? There is no obvious topical link between Britney Spears and Punky McMilfson's mother. (That's one sentence I never imagined writing; on the Fourth of July no less.) Unless you're dreaming of Hot Mommy and husband taking conservatorship, which never will happen but would be worth its weight in gold to this thread.
That's the stuffDid you hear about the chameleon who couldn't change colors?
He had a reptile dysfunction.

"Change my mind!" (written on sign in front of coffee table on the quad.)
"AND you must construct a literal scenario that is believable without any tint of the absurd for humor to arise!"
Dude, you didn't get it. Give it a rest.
I agree with your conclusion, by the way ... if I missed your humor it's because for some reason there was incoming about the idea of the jokeNo worries. I was continuing the TIC tone of your conversation, failing to be funny. Its the Jets thread on a football board. Seriousness should be considered a mental health problem here.
Went RIGHT over my headIt was Britney's lizard by the way. Haha

The other available guy was Wirfs, who had one of the most impressive rookie campaigns ever. Evaluators and analytic sites are saying, though it’s early, this is what Hall of Fame talent looks like.
Same old Jets.
