By the time the thread hits 10,000 y'all will be flatlined, passed out drunk from all the bear being passed around - bwahahaha 10,000 shall be mine (or anybody else's who doesn't drink)

I've heard of loaded for bear, but never loaded by bear....

(The drink is "beer", the large, furry, with claws and fangs, animal, is "bear".)

Actually based on this thread I think the most often used words are "urgent" or "start your tests"

LOL

Got looks from coworkers.

I don't think I'd want to hang around people that are passing bears around, especially if they're grizzlies or polar bears.

yeah yeah yeah.

I am surprised that mistake lasted until now.

However, I do like the thought of passing the bear around rather than beer though.

I just had an epiphony - my spelling gaff made it through the weekend due to all the beer. Beer vision must make bare bear and beer all look the same. No wonder so many men waking up from being stone-cold drunk wonder about their decisions the previous evening.;-)

I don't know what you're talking about. I never went to bed with a BEER I didn't like.

That may be true, but I'm pretty sure I've gone to bed because of a Beer that didn't like me...

There is a loose connection between the two.

Well, Roy, I'd have to say, that depends. Get a good cook, the right spices and I'm sure you can come up with a polar bear dish that's pretty spectacular. However, I don't know any recipes and I don't live in Alaska and Polar Bears are on the endangered species list so it's a moot point anyway. At least I think they are still on the endangered species list.

And here I think Barry would like this car
Man, I used to love "Spanky and his gang".
Oh - were you madly in love with Darla, too?
Heh... nah... I always thought she was a gold digger. Alfalfa didn't get it...
Miss Crabtree? Now that was a different story. Of course, I thought the "Shake'n'Bake" lady on TV was pretty hot, as well... when they came out with "Shake'n'Bake" for pork chops, I just knew I was going to marry her someday. 😉

Hmm interesting. I figured that would gum up the works. Or is that considered shrapnel?

And just to readjust your "target", this is the first "and I helped" kid.

To steal from another commercial... Shake'n bake does a body good!

I figure if hanging around with people that are passing bears around, they're big/mean enough to handle it.

Maybe it depends on how well done that bear is and how much beer he had?
