Obama is officially President Elect

[MarleysGh0st]

Building pyramids is half the fun of their MM thread hijackings, Jeemie!

For those that indulge...

[Jeemie]

I'm still hoping Marley tells me what a PEB-Ho is.

[WheresFanny]

OFF WITH HIS HEAD!!!!!!!!!!!!

No.

It needs to be built up all pink and sparkly and pretty. And, now that you've broken the chain, we have to start all over again!

Pink and sparkly and pretty MY ASS!

Paint it BLACK!

Must you always be a Debbie Downer? That position has already been taken. So cheer up, bitch!

Roberta Flack?

I have no idea what it would be. Daniel is the one who wanted to invent the childish nicknames.

I don't get it. Is there some insulting meaning of PEBO?

[MarleysGh0st]

I don't get it. Is there some insulting meaning of PEBO?

I don't know.

I think Daniel just made it up because it sounded insulting. Childish grade-school behavior.

[Jeemie]

Maybe Marley thinks it's insulting to think of Obama as someone who makes it funky.

OK, I had no idea whose picture that was.

{Googling}

Peabo Bryson, a jazz musician?

If that was part of the original reference, I confess to being clueless.

Isn't it a PEB-HO a small opening that you can look though to see nekkid folks?

Or maybe it's what John Lennon thought needed to be attached to the electrical grid?

(Power to the PEB-HO)

Maybe it was the character that Wally Cox played in the TV show many decades ago?

Don't sweat it, Marley.

I am all about gratitous posts this afternoon!

And quote-chain breaking!

Somehow, Mr. Peb-Hos doesn't roll off the tongue the same way as Mr. Peepers.

(Like Marley on mine, I had to Google- I'm assuming this is what you meant!)

I think Daniel just made it up because it sounded insulting

Or maybe because President Elect Barack Obama works out to PEBO.


You know, sometimes a cigar really is just a cigar.

President Elect Barack Obama or PEBO for short...

OK, why add the "PEBO for short" part? Yes, those are the initials of his new title and his name. So what?

Excuse me if I made a mountain out of a molehill, but I read the original post with Daniel's history of political discussions in mind. My Snark Detector went off and I called him on it.

If he offers an innocent explanation, I'll retract my comments.

[tlynn78]

OK, why add the "PEBO for short" part?

'cause President Elect Barack Obama is a mouthful. That's why we create acronyms.

but I read the original post with Daniel's history of political discussions in mind. My Snark Detector went off

But see, that's not really Daniel's problem.

If he offers an innocent explanation, I'll retract my comments.

I don't think he owes an explanation, and I doubt he needs you to retract your comments. You're as entitled to them as he is to his. I will say this: if you're planning to spring into action each time you read a percieved insult regarding our incoming president, I suspect you're in for a very busy, if not exhausting, (at least) four years.

Ah, well, that's twice I've been chastised today. The first time by PM, from a surprising source.

I could have written every word t-girl did and meant them.

I'm beginning to suspect you like being chastised. I'm wearing black boots, you know.
