The Inconspicuous Off-Topic Thread!

[Pip]

OK, we really need a thread for any soupy thing that pops into our wild minds, so even if it’s not about books *gasp* but about you, your sibs, your life in general, the homework that your dog supposedly ate…this is the place to randomly-wander.

[Owan]

If the thread is about being offtopic then if we’re offtopic it means we’re ontopic. How sad.

Houston We Are Go in three days!

Will you came a-waltzing Matilda with me?

My favorite hairdo on my dad? I don’t think I have one of those.

(Was that random enough?)

[monkeygal693]

nope. You were trying too hard.

Right now my dad and I are watching a show on killer bees..I’m allergic to bees, and I’m getting freaked out! (Yet its strangly entertaining)

My teacher forgot my homework..heheheh I thought that was ironic

[Alassiel]

I have been thinking about making a thread like this for ages! Thanks!

[Owan]

I reject that comment, monkeygal.

*is infatuated (not really) with the song Waltzing Matilda* Billabong is the best name for a body of water. Seriously!

[Sarah]

Now I have that song in my head.

[Pip]

What song? It’s sunny here. I don’t really favor the word billabong, I don’t know why.

A.C. Moore craft store rother rocks. I wish they had a really big bookstore in our mall.

[Sarah]

Waltzing Matilda. But now I’m softly singing Alleluia Canon by Mozart.

[Owan]

This song, Pip:

Once a jolly swagman camped by a billabong,

Under the shade of a coolibah tree,

And he sang as he watched and waited ’til his billy boiled

“Who’ll come a-Waltzing Matilda, with me?”

Waltzing Matilda, Waltzing Matilda

“You’ll come a-Waltzing Matilda, with me”

And he sang as he watched and waited ’til his billy boiled,

“You’ll come a-Waltzing Matilda, with me”.

Down came a jumbuck to drink at the billabong,

Up got the swagman and grabbed him with glee,

And he sang as he stowed that jumbuck in his tucker bag,

“You’ll come a-Waltzing Matilda, with me”.

Waltzing Matilda, Waltzing Matilda

“You’ll come a-Waltzing Matilda, with me”

And he sang as he stowed that jumbuck in his tucker bag,

“You’ll come a-Waltzing Matilda, with me”.

Down came the squatter, mounted on his thoroughbred,

Up came the troopers, one, two, three,

“Who’s that jolly jumbuck you’ve got in your tucker bag?”

“You’ll come a-Waltzing Matilda, with me”.

Waltzing Matilda, Waltzing Matilda

“You’ll come a-Waltzing Matilda, with me”

“Who’s that jolly jumbuck you’ve got in your tucker bag?”,

“You’ll come a-Waltzing Matilda, with me”.

Up got the swagman and jumped into the billabong,

“You’ll never catch me alive”, said he,

And his ghost may be heard as you pass by that billabong,

“Who’ll come a-Waltzing Matilda, with me?”

Waltzing Matilda, Waltzing Matilda

Who’ll come a-Waltzing Matilda, with me

And his ghost may be heard as you pass by that billabong,

“Who’ll come a-Waltzing Matilda, with me?”

And the word “tucker” is best in a Aussie accent, of course.

[Sarah]

Wow. About all I knew was most of the chorus.

[monkeygal693]

I take back my comment. The fact that you wrote out that entire song is pretty impressive!

[Pip]

Quite. I applaud you. :wink:

I’m eating butterfingers and its 10:35 pm…I feel bad to the bone(dadadadaa bu bu buuba baaaad), and not in the sick way

[Alassiel]

My sis and I spent awhile Sunday night decorating our room. We took an old, broken framey thing that my sis got for her birthday years ago, repainted it, gave it a new ribbon, and put a cool picture of a ship in it. Then we found some dusty old frames in the basement, cleaned them, (cutting my finger on the glass while doing this!), and framed some paintings of ours. Finally, we hung my sis’s wooden sword on the wall underneath them, and voila!

Before

After

Cool, huh?

[monkeygal693]

Woah! Very Nice!
