This, That, and the Other

Di (aka Pensitivity101) and Melanie (Sparks From a Combustible Mind) alternate as hosts for Fibbing Friday, a silly little exercise where we are to write a post with our answers to the ten questions below. But as the title suggests, truth is not an option. The idea is to fib a little, a lot, tell whoppers, be inventive, silly, or even outrageous, in our responses. Since Melanie is still temporarily out of commission, Di is back and she gives us some more words to define.

1. What is a bandana? The name of Roseanne Roseannadanna’s first born child, Bandana Roseannadanna.

2. What is a rum baba? It’s a beverage made with non-alcoholic rum for infants and toddlers. Think of it as a virgin Piña Colada.

3. What is a marinade? It’s a financial aid package for the wealthy residents of Marin County, just across the Golden Gate Bridge from San Francisco.

4. What is an asset? It’s a cosmetic surgical procedure for those who wish to tighten up or improve the contour of their butt cheeks.

5. Who was Apollo? A boxer who fought Rocky Balboa.

6. What is meant by BYOB? “Boy, you outta bathe.”

7. What is a pekingese? A euphemism for a peeping Tom.

8. What is a crockpot? A crackpot who is high on crack cocaine and is using a slow cooker to brew it? (Do people “brew” crack? I have no idea.)

9. What is meant by upbeat? It’s the dyslexic version of “beat up.”

10. What does it mean to recycle? It’s when you ride your bicycle to your destination, and then turn around and recycle back to where you started.
