COMMENT OF THE DAY

Hooray for prizesWIN OF THE AFTERNOON: We liked this one because it was sciency, and in a post about education, too: “Between the lazy fartsack (larval) stage, and the sneering workaholic (adult) phase, there’s also that stoner, introspective, layabout stage, where the whole of America’s college population pupates.” “dennymcden” is Wonkette’s Weekend Hero for using “pupates” in a sentence.

    For the first time, I concur with the Editors choice of Comment of the Afternoon. I always love a good metamorphosis reference.

    Can I buy some pot from you?

  10. Scrodd says at 5:36 pm, June 12th, 2009

    I did my homework, but my pupate it. How’s that?

    Outstanding. Let this be a lesson to children everywhere. If you pay attention in science class rather, you too can win a Wonkette Post of the Day award and lord it over the rest of your classmates who were doing such things as trying to look up girl’s skirts during recess.

    Pupates (poo-pah-TEHS): verb trans.
    1. Ignores the Tina-Fey glasses.
    2. Idly picks at the dog’s infected pustules.
    3. Shares a condom.

    Encomium.

    I wanna transmogrify with dennymcden.

  16. hockeymom says at 9:06 pm, June 12th, 2009

    Pupate falls into the same category as mucus, stool and phlegm. These are words I do not care to see in print…or in real life.
    Thank you.

  17. Mr Blifil says at 9:11 pm, June 12th, 2009

    Actually I find eating poop to be rather intolerable.

  18. iolanthe says at 10:18 pm, June 12th, 2009

    That was the best comment this afternoon. I was reading it out loud to people.

  19. Cranky Old Batt says at 12:34 am, June 13th, 2009

    You actually read our comments?!?!?!?!? Holy shit.

  20. Wet Work says at 12:58 am, June 13th, 2009

    You mean there’s a stage after stoner?

  21. dennymcden says at 11:45 am, June 13th, 2009

    Woo! Go me! Time to Facebook this shit.

  22. sati demise says at 3:10 pm, June 13th, 2009

    Wet Work: who knew?
    thanks dennymcden, for shattering all illusions.

  23. daisy chain says at 8:43 am, June 15th, 2009

    That’s the second time in 12 hours the word pupate has come up.
