Anyone can do what you are doing
in that pic. Your forearm remains above your bicep. The cartoon chick's forearm is
entirely behind her bicep. You can't do that.
PS: Take another with the camera to the side so we can see your cute face!

That was back wayyyyyyyyyyy earlier in thread (see Hambubba's post).
Some of us weren't satisfied.
Besides, you know if you've got this little niggling, you have to scratch it.
Thanks for the porn info, btw. This has been a not only entertaining but educational
thread.

Wow. This is quite the thread, people. To quote the great WAY: "I never feed trolls,
and I don't read spam." (Spam 'n' cookies excluded, of course.) But in this case...
wow. This thread is like the chia pet of threads. It's growing really fast and crazy in
like no time at all, thanks to all the loverly food and water you're giving it. Not to
mention the wonderful manure that started it all. Such fertile ground for a thread!
Hey, did this thread get longer even faster than that one thread where we all said we were
thread-killers and predicted that our own post would be the one to kill the thread, and it
went on and on, and then snopes got mad and ended it?

As far as the sand in the picture,
I can vouch for it, saying that there are some areas of AZ that look like that, and
particularly near PHX. TO me it kind of looks like the dry washes that only get water when
the monsoons rain and flood. The plant behind her looks like it could be from AZ as well
but I'm no plant expert. And in her hand......That ain't no ciggarete, thats ciga-weed!!!

Sand looks like this pretty much
everywhere. I could recreate the same scene here in Chicago. Same on the East Coast. The
photo was taken on this planet, I think we can agree.
I strongly disagree that girls who look like this aren't in porn. There are thousands that
look quite a bit like this. The Internet is teeming with them.

I’d like to thank you for
this thread. At a trying time for me, it’s been a comfort and a source of strength. I
realise that some of you may find this embarrassing, but I feel called upon to share this
with you.
I have been clueless all my life. My parents were both strictly clueless, and I was raised
the same way. All through childhood I was, with a child’s simplicity, unthinkingly
clueless.
As I entered my rebellious teenage years, of course, I realised that it wasn’t
“cool” to be clueless. But that was all right, because, like most other
teenagers, I was convinced that I knew it all. I denied being clueless, and shunned those
of my friends who admitted that they were. I now realise that I was more clueless then
than ever before. I simply didn’t realise it.
Now, as I grow older, I again find myself feeling more comfortable in admitting my
cluelessness, and spending time with other clueless people. Most of my work colleagues are
aware that I’m clueless – I don’t talk about it much, it’s just part
of who I am. I find it rewarding that – though most of them publicly deny being
clueless – many of them have come to me privately to talk about how they too
haven’t a clue.
This I why I’m happy to admit that until I read this thread this afternoon (well
it’s late evening now, but I started in the afternoon) I had no idea who the
hell Kyoko was. And quite frankly, with all the conspiracy theories flying about, I still
don’t.
Except I’m pretty sure she’s not really God’s sock-puppet.

I want to be in the Church of the
Clueless too! I've already converted quite a few of my friends (are non-snopesters allowed
to be members? If not, I could try to get them to join the snopes message board as well).
It's quite an appealing church--the awareness that I simply don't have a clue is so
freeing, and the flinging up of hands and saying unintelligible gibberish is something
I've already mastered. I could bring cookie monsters and monster cookies. Monster cookies
have diameters of about 10 cm and are made with oatmeal, peanut butter, chocolate chips,
M&Ms, and much other scrumptious stuff. Cookie monsters are soft chocolate chip
cookies with diameters of around 15 cm. They're baked in a skillet and served warm, with a
scoop of ice cream and some whipped cream on top, and drizzled with hot fudge sauce.
Mmmmm...
I made a stained-glass window (not a real one, though) for the church (the idea
was taken from here, but I did the editing. I thought about making it a cookie, but
somehow it just didn't work as well), and have a suggestion for another hymn.
Both, of course, are subject to hambubba's approval. I'm sorry I don't have anything
entirely original to offer to the church, but perhaps I will be inspired by the
Spirit/Being/Entity/er, Something of Cluelessness at some later date.
And I'm immensely curious as to what whipped shortbread is like. And what happened with
the supplies Brad from Georgia brought...then again, perhaps it'd be better if I didn't
know.

Yeah, I agree. The girls I have
seen in porn (and that's not very many) are the girl-next-door type.
Maybe the first thing I thought of was "porn" because I remember one of my
favorite series of uh...a different kind of porn and the person was posing on a beach like
that.
Yeah, that's my age in my profile. Sue me.

Add yourself to the SLC
BIRTHDAY LIST! (1/28/04)
I'm just trying to work out why
anyone would pose squatting in the sand. From the shadow in the pic it must be early
morning/late afternoon but the light feel wrong making me think it was artifically lit
(adding evidence to the porn theory IMO). It just seems a little to *artistically"
done compared to most peoples pic of themselves (in RL not just here). But then maybe she
had an arty friend- who knows...

I'm sorry...I just can't see why
anyone would think this is something other than a simple unstaged photo taken of some girl
with a cig (or joint) in her hand. I take pics of friends like this all the time. She's
probably at the beach. What are people trying to "get at" by making comments
about this photo?? Why would anyone think this is the real Kyoko??
If she is reading this thread she is laughing her ass off, no matter who she is!

Although I don't believe Kyoko's
claim about the audience she's played for (I have no reason to believe anything she said),
I'd just like to state that I really have played for that many people. It's on video
somewhere, although the camera never catches the entire crowd properly, really. I just
thought I'd say this because the idea that she must be lying because she's played to that
many people is wrong. However, I disbelieve her because she's a confabulist, and she said
it in response to my original post, and it seems more knee-jerk than anything else.
Oh and, for the record, the most nerve-racking gig I've ever done was my first club gig to
about 30 people. I'm very suspicious about her comment about "breaking 3,000".
There really is little difference between 2,000 and 3,000. And there's little difference
between 3,000 and 6,000.
As for porn...I can easily believe that that photo could be of a porn star (not that I'm
saying that it's likely, or there's anything to make me think it, just responding to
Cynestra's post). I've encountered all sorts on the net, from the heavily made-up
boob-jobbed types to the really skanky, tripped out-looking girls and everything in
between. She doesn't look like she'd be out of place on a site like Cum fiesta,
for example. Link definately not worksafe, definately NFBSK. Don't blame me if you open it
at work and get fired.
But, in other words, she looks like a normal, average, everyday, reasonably pretty girl.
With the advent of the internet, anyone can be a porn star, and there seems to be a
fair market for girls who look...like real people.

Man. People always trying to blame me for porn.

Thank you so much everyone! I
thought this thread was starting to play out, but I'm still laughing as hard as I did in
the early pages
Alas, I will shortly be suffering acute snopes deprivation syndrome (starting my new job
and I'll be away at the head office for the next week -- somehow I don't think ULMB will
be on the induction agenda )
I'll just have a slice of manacled shortbread before I go (thanks Brad! :whips ... um wipes

This is really quite amazing. I
was looking through my sock drawer and what do you think I found?
Well of course snakes -- but nestled among them was an undiscovered musical
manuscript by P.D.Q Bach which had been written on an ancient parchment. This parchment
actually reveals the secret origins of the Church of the Clueless.
Needless to say, I snatched it out immediately and have transcribed it for the
more-or-less faithful. (Not easy when your hands are swollen to twice their normal size.)
In those days the prophet Hambubba did live in the land of Shiurity in the city of
Lewinsky, so named because it did suck big time. And on the first day of month of Gotscha,
during the reign of Tiberius Toblerone, God came to Hambubba and said, "Come up from
the city of Lewinsky, leave the land of Shiruity and follow me and I will reveal to you
all the mysteries of life, the events of the future, and the secret confection by which I
will bring about the apocalypse."
So Hambubba did follow God high into the mountains until they reached the great waterfall
called by some "God's Thunder" and by others "The Great Waterfall,"
which roared with the sound of a thousand caravans.
Then did God sit Hambubba down and spoke to him and God did talk for 40 days and 39
nights, because he wanted to knock off a bit early to catch the Super Bowl.
And when God had finished, Hambubba spoke saying, "Could you repeat that because I
couldn't hear over the falls which roar with the sound of a thousand caravans."
And God was annoyed.
So God took Hambubba into the bowels of the earth, into the Caverns of Ancient Echoes
which magnify and repeat every sound one thousand times, and there did repeat His lessons
and when He was finished Hambubba did say, "What we have here is a failure to
communicate."
And God was pissed.
So God took Hambubba into the heart of a busy metropolis, into the very centre of a
bustling marketplace in which the merchants did call out their wares in a thousand voices
and before God could speak Hambubba said, "We really have to stop meeting like
this."
And God did fling up His hands and stalk off in a Holy Huff.
