Oh no, jennarenn, you have me mistaken for stpeter! Someone else made that comment, whereupon I decided that my main list, Chained Bear's Words, had to be broken up. Right now that list is merely a staging point for a Better Place for all those words. :) So till then, pick on someone else's long-ass lists! (But not on their long ass-lists.) *hums "The Hustle"*

The Bartman

also, people have often asked me if I "do any art" or "karate," though I agree it's an awkward construction.

chained_bear, wasn't it your lists that reportedly crashed computers? I think that that's worthy of a little heckling. Besides, I've never seen stpeter make a comment. It's no fun he's not gonna rise to the bait.

That's right. Some of my lists are so darn long I had to break them into sections.

What do I care? I'm having fun!

Hey! Why pick on my list? reesetee's are longer than mine, plus check out stpeter, for stpeter's sake. ;)

Love the list and the comments!

Absolutely forgiven, jennarenn. And by the way, my family's method of getting a maddening song out of one's head is to transfer it to some other poor sod's head by way of singing. Try it--it works. :-)

reesetee, forgive me if I gave any such impression. One can *never* love one's words too much. It's just that some lists should come with warning labels, as should some comments. ;)

Ok, if we're keeping it strictly to titles, then it could be manageable. However, if the witch doctor keeps telling me what to do, I'll throw something. Get it OUT of my HEAD.

Surely, jennarenn, you're not suggesting that one can have *too many* favorite words? ;-)

The Nonsense Titles to Songs list sounds like fun! I respectfully submit "Ooh-eee-ooh-ah-ah" ("The Witch Doctor"). One of my favs.

Clearly, I need to watch Ace Ventura again.

There are a zillion nonsense syllables. That list would be even longer than chained_bear's Favorite Words. :P You go right ahead. I'll just watch.

Great list idea -- da do ron ron, et. al. If anyone fires up, please post a link.

The scene is where Ace comes out of the bathroom (soaking wet, if I recall correctly) at a formal dinner party and shouts "Do NOT go in there! Whooooo!" And all the guests stare at him like the lunatic he is. I don't really remember the specifics, but I seem to remember him swimming with... a shark? An alligator? Something like that. I think he was trying to sneak around the mansion and fell into the pool.

See? This list is already too long. You nominated 13 words, and I've only added 10 of them. I'm vetoing one, so there are two words unaccounted for. By the time I scroll between the comment and the top of the list, my poor little brain has forgotten which words I was supposed to be remembering.

Nice! Yeah, the song is called "Do Wah Diddy". The version we all know is a cover by Manfred Mann, the original is by The Exciters. I have a copy of the original 45, which I'll eventually post with the rest of my collection. I've been totally slack about getting it online, thanks for the reminder :-)

A quick googling says that's the title of the song. Not sure what I was thinking with my first suggestion. Those nonsense-word songs sure used to be popular. Actually that might make for a good list. Anyone?

Comment by jennarenn, over 2 years ago

Mon, 19 Feb 2007 15:21:46 +0000

Really? I don't remember that part. Of course, I haven't watched that movie since I grew up. Oh...wait....

Ok, thanks for the confirmation. We weren't sure. I have such a poor memory for music that my vote counts -1.

But... but... it's from Ace Ventura!! Have some love.

NOT go in there could open a whole 'nother can of worms.

Do...
NOT spit
NOT run
NOT hit
NOT pick your nose
NOT stand on that bookshelf
NOT do ___________

etc. I have said all of these to children at one time or another. This list could go on forever.

Oh you're right. *bonehead*
What was I thinking?
Actually, isn't the song just called "Do Wah Diddy Diddy"?

Comment by jennarenn, over 2 years ago

Mon, 19 Feb 2007 15:16:40 +0000

Uh, I don't think we were thinking of the same song. Roomie says that Brown Eyed Girl is Sha-la-la. We were thinking of the one that goes, "There she was, just-a walkin' down the street...."

Oh come on. You added wah diddy (diddy). And I even gave you the name wrong name of the song. :-P

your father proud? the unthinkable? what feels right? a barrel roll? donuts (in a car)? such a thing? cartwheel? NOT go in there? disservice? everything you can? good deed? what I tell you? some damage?

There is debate in the jennarenn house as to the actual name of the aforementioned song. Anybody know it off the top of their head?

Comment by jennarenn, over 2 years ago

Mon, 19 Feb 2007 15:02:21 +0000

It took me a minute, but wah diddy is most excellent. I took the liberty of adding another diddy. Hope you don't mind.

Comment by chained_bear, over 2 years ago

Mon, 19 Feb 2007 10:40:35 +0000

me, your job, someone in, the dew. But my favorite suggestion so far is wah diddy. Brilliant!

Art? I'm not sure about martial arts either. Fortunately, my roommate is into both of these, so I shall consult an outside expert. But the rest are really good. Thanks :)

There are a lot of stuffies. I don't think I saw one with do, but please feel free to let me know (with fire and brimstone if necessary) if I have erred.
