Agua Perdido Posted May 4, 2001 Share Posted May 4, 2001 <BLOCKQUOTE>quote:</font><HR>Originally posted by Lawyer: I'd bet you work at EPA except you're not clever enough to be a GS-11.[1]<HR></BLOCKQUOTE> That was bafflingly weak, even for you. You could have made a crack about looking for one's daddy at 8th & I [1*], or plying one's trade as a crackwhore at the end of the Green Line [5], or even a "bent page" reference [Q]. Heck, if you're going to go on about GS levels, you could have at least made a gibe about not owning nice enough pens to ever make SES [#]. No clever plays on local knowledge, witty turns on ins-and-outs (Bauhaus!) of government service, or even insults towards Maryland. But, no--instead it's only an obsession with toilet seat covers. Go with what you know, I guess. I suppose I should be thankful we weren't treated to more of your tiresomely-delusional "I am somehow important because of my government job mopping the floor of the cafeteria in the Air & Space musuem" chest-thumping. Agua Perdido Notes (for PawBroon's benefit) [1] GS levels are government job grades. GS-11 is roughly where a fresh college grad would start, so Lawyer's taunt essentially translates as "I would think you worked for the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), but I don't think you graduated from college." A Cesspooligan being accused of working for the EPA has a certain irony, but I'm pretty sure that was unintentional on Lawyer's part. [1*] 8th & I is the address of the Marine Barracks in SE Washington, DC. The implication would be that of either promiscuous homosexuality or bastardy (not that there's anything wrong with either, as Lawyer could certainly testify) and that the Marines were a hotbed of repressed homosexuality and/or irresponsible sexual conduct. Lawyer thereby could have gotten in a dig at Berli and Gyrene, too. Of course, asking him to kill even one bird with two stones would be too difficult, much less the reverse. [5] The Green Line is a subway line whose southern half is in an area of DC that hasn't undergone gentrification, to put it diplomatically. But I'm sure Lawyer's "supervisor" has him plying his avocation on a well-lit street corner, so not to worry. [Q] A reference, of course, to the sex scandal involving Congressional pages from a while back. Ask Lawyer about his "apprenticeship" (did you know that Mace used to be a U.S. Senator before he was deported to Oz?). [#] SES is the Senior Executive Service, which are government executive job grades that start just above the highest GS grades. There is a DC stereotype of the high-level GS who aspires to become SES, and purchases accessories like expensive pens and shirts with french cuffs to "look the part." And I'm sure that Lawyer's Cross matching-pen-and-pencil set looks smashing between the mop and pail of his, er, "mobile work station." It'll probably get him responsibility for an extra "Caution, floor wet" sign in this year's performance review.

PawBroon Posted May 5, 2001 Share Posted May 5, 2001 I usually don't go through the Cut & Paste routine with the mail I receive since my opponents are moronic enough to step in the limelights when Ridicules are awarded. But I must admit a certain fondness for Mensch's epistolary prowess. He just sent me a setup for a scenario he designed or more aptly put, devised. Chances are that it would give him a head start and that he might eventually manage to inflict some casualities on my troops which is something left to be witnessed by me so far when Greg is involved... His OneLiner is the following: You'll may win this one, maybe, but I'll make you bleed like a, well, bleeding person. Don't you love playing the Deported Canuck?

Everything that was ever good on your island left, including John Lennon. You're a loser left-behind hoping some geek like Mace will love you from afar. You're a subject of the Queen (or High Street, for all we know),not a citizen of a real country. You grovel at the feet of the English, which even the Paki's in India threw over 50 years ago. You wear a RED COAT even though it hasn't been in style for half a century. You worship His Royal Highness Chucker most highly. Your taxes pay for his non-stop vacations, ya git. You even LOOK like Chucker wants an English-wannabee dog to look, a bit like the guy Fergie dumped at a Sloan Ranger party. Except not as rich or connected to important people. So, take your Brit Bravery Suck-up Routine to somebody who cares. Like PawBroon... Yes, he loves to play dress up as the Brits.
