You want funny? Guaranteed funny in the improv world is monkeys. Anyone jumps out as a monkey, that's laughs-a-plenty, I'll tell you from experience. Monkeys. Take my word. And as for GNUs, I'd say it pretty funny (albeit geeky funny) that GNU stands for "GNU's Not UNIX". Oh, my sides.

Yeah, and if geese have the laughs, then it's a gaggle of giggles! But why would you want to gag a giggle? On the other hand, a gag can make you giggle. Aw, now I'm all confused and giggly-gaggly!

"Numbers have an aroma?
Obviously missing from your wide array of talents, ledasdottir, is synesthesia." Dear Faldage: Unfair that you should accuse of troy of ignorance of synesthesia. She ; introduced the word to the Board:
kinesthesia reminds me of synestesia-- a somewhat rare condition where people experience things with unexpected senses (ie, food has visual appeal, and aromatic appeal, and can be taste sweet, bitter, salt or sour-- and hot or cold-- but for most of us, it doesn't taste square, or pointed, or rounded, or yellow or purple or like a ringing bell, or a clap of thunder! but for people with synestesia -- it can!
googling synestesia will bring up a host of sites.. there is also a book- The Man Who Tasted Shapes.(author ??) about an inquiry into the subject...
people with the condition are said to have enriched our language-- and defined aged, flavorful cheese as "Sharp"-- cucumbers at "green" and other mixed sensation.
