I'll go ahead and link one of the most absurdly grim music videos in existence. It has flies, honey, and Marc Almond.

If I may, I would like to enter into the record of the club, the dictionary definition of the word absurd, to whit:

ab·surd [ab-surd, -zurd] adjective
1.utterly or obviously senseless, illogical, or untrue; contrary to all reason or common sense; laughably foolish or false: an absurd explanation.
Is the frog leg video admissible as absurd, or merely bizarre and yucky? I vote for the latter.

Some Absurd Laws (Alphabetically, by U.S. city)

In Alabama, it's illegal to have an ice cream cone in your back pocket.

In Alaska, it's illegal to view a moose from an airplane.

In Arizona, it's illegal to manufacture imitation cocaine.

In California, no vehicle without a driver may exceed a speed of 60 miles an hour.

In Colorodo, it's legal to challenge a police officer, but only until he or she asks you to stop.

In Connecticut, it's illegal to walk backwards after sunset.

... more later

(By the way, i have no idea if any of these really are laws, but here's the link:

Some Deep Thoughts...

Why do banks charge you a "non-sufficient funds" fee on money they already know you don't have?

If you get cheated by the Better Business Bureau, who do you complain to?

If love is blind, why is lingerie so popular?

How do you throw away a garbage can?

Why is it that you must wait until night to call it a day?

What if the Hokey Pokey really is what it's all about?

When your pet bird sees you reading the newspaper, does he wonder why you're just sitting there, staring at carpeting?

What happened to the first 6 "ups"?

laborloleta, i'm so disappointed in you. You have just broken Rule #3, which forbids any argumentation about the meaning of the word "absurd".

Now, I have to go figure out some straight lines for pam..... or would that be absurd? Actually performing duties as assigned? Yeah, that'd cement (<== 1st opportunity, m'dear, don't miss it) my position both as a member (<== 2nd) and as being absurd.

i thought of another one for "member". Check it out.

I once knew a man, made me frantic
His member was super gigantic
He gave it a flip
(it was named for the ship)

If vodka were water, and i were a duck
I'd swim to the bottom and never come up
But water's not vodka and I'm not a duck
So pass me the bottle, and shut the fuck up.

There once was a plumber from Brie
Who was plumbing a lass by the sea
She cried, "Plumber, stop plumbing
There's somebody coming!"
Said the Plumber, still plumbing, "It's me."

And then there is the classic Kansas law which holds that "When two railroad trains come to a crossing, both shall stop, and neither shall leave until the other has departed."

To the best of my knowledge, this law was repealed. Sad.

More Weird Laws (and, again, i don't know if any of these are real)

In Delaware, it's illegal to serve alcohol in nightclubs if dancing is occuring on the premises at the same time.

In Florida it's illegal to shower naked.

In Georgia, members of the state assembly cannot be ticketed for speeding while the state assembly is in session.

In Hawaii, you may be fined for not owning a boat.

In Idaho, a person may not be seen in public without a smile on their face.

Fnord by Darius ************

How Assiduous is The Gerbil
well it be known
that The Gerbil arose lowly.
All to it be All known how
the love of the location

"Is this common literature"
Her lips as luxuriantly as she is

But then the light shineth upon the Chimes
And the Chimes strucketh unto Three.

" 'Marvelous' says The Gerbil"
Knowing that the gerbil in actuality
speak unto it more marital Marital status this
gerbil was seeking seeking it from the
snake

The chimes sounded,
And the Penguin strucketh unto Four.

"Mercy! Mercy! Mercy!" I called out loud.
"Have you know mercy?"

The Penguin stricketh unto the bear,
The Bear biteth into the man,
The man runneth into the house

The house collapsed.
The Man died,
And his every sensibility strucketh unto Six.

"Misery, you Pesterers!
You have brought that sin upon I
So I petition the Righteousness,
unto it be known
Proclaiming it to all"

And the Proclamation was declared.
"Whosoever stricketh down a Penguin or a Bear,
or a house upon a man, shall be brought
Eight Nine and Ten
And therefore shalt proclaim unto The
Star Witch light shine upon Twelve."

A rather strange dude down in Delaware
Liked to have someone stick an umbrella where
You and I couldn't stand it--
He'd just howl and demand it
Right up his... Oh, surely you're aware.

There was a young man from Cape Horn
Who wished he had never been born.
He wouldn't have been
If his father had seen
That the end of his condom was torn.
