In Stanford Hospital:

Kristen: Hi Eric!
Eric: Hi Kristen! I don't have pants on.
Kristen: Uhh...
Eric: I just thought I should warn you.

Hey now...

Allen: I'm pretty peculiar about who I chapdoze.
Beth: ...
Allen: Particular! I meant particular!

What you read really does affect the way you view life

2:05 PM corycombs: a wise person once said something that I forget

2:07 PM me: Oh Cory

2:11 PM corycombs: but it went something like: that there is nothing else in one's life, save God, that is more important than finding a good partner to share it with. the poorest man could have all the cares in the world but think himself the most blessed of men if he could come home from his toil every day to someone who loved him and was willing to share- for better or for worse, for sickness or for health- it all alongside him.

and vice versa for a woman

I suppose

I mean, not vice versa

the same

lol

2:12 PM me: lol

It's a very wise statement

corycombs: that was almost totally made up word-wise, but came from something I read

oh my gosh

do you know what it was I think

the

2:13 PM "How to woo a woman book"


PS - did you note the time delay as he tried to remember that passage?

What's your favorite fricative?

Beth: Was that a "puzzled" noise?
Katie: No, it was a glottal stop.

corycombs: I am I am

I'm your destiny caaaaaling

Pax

Kristyn: Did you just ask her to stop tormenting you in Latin?
Grace: Yes.

=oD

Eric: i am jealous of allen

but not of you

lol

Beth: So you're saying you wouldn't want to date Allen?

Eric: yes

Beth: Your loss.

Love...

Panayiota: Love keeps no record of wrongs.

Josiah: But it keeps record of rights.

Bon bon ball

(After an "accelerating waltz"...)

Beth: Hello Edwin! [hug]

Edwin: Are you sure you want to do that? I've got accelerating sweat.

Public Service Announcement: Cory Combs is taking a dance class

Discussing said revelation over dinner -

Edwin: What made you do it, Cory? Is it a pretty girl?
Cory: No...no comment.
Allie: Was it several?
Cory: Well, you know us rappers...

South Africa

"Kin cancer."

Panayiota: "When i bought these shoes they were new!"

Simon: "Do you have a girlfriend?"
Eric: "No."
Simon: "Do you have a lifelong prayer partner?"

Simon: "This is a mission trip, man. No laughing!

Simon: "I used to look good."

Eric to Simon: "Have you driven on the autobon?"

David, in talking about the worship song, "I Want to Know You More": "'I want to see your voice'...sounds like a lie."

Carl: "T.I.A...That could mean a lot of things...This is Asia, This is Australia, etc."
ERic: "Context clues!"

Panayiota: "Why did you buy chocolate?"
Simon: "For the hormones."

Simon, mimicking Sunday schoolers: "Gimme my snacks!"

17!!!

"Ambigamous"

"gay pig"


*Since these quotes are from months ago, their context and even speakers is a bit foggy. For some I've even forgotten whey they're funny!

Jin the astute

Jin: I've noticed recently that I'm Asian.*


*(Ok, so she actually said "aging" and I misheard her. But Jin, you're not aging, and besides, I think this is funnier).

No way!

Me: I drove my stick shift here wearing high heels.
Eric: Whoa! No way! That makes you almost as cool as David Scudder!
Amy [of TFA]: David drives a stick shift in high heels?

That's "Camp Director," thanks.

My boss: "I put her in charge of fun and games today. She'll be your...[pause]...well, I guess I shouldn't really say she'll be your playmate...[pause]...Umm...?"

Autocannibalistic appetite

Cory: Stuff getting cauterized right next to your nose smells...really good! It's really appetizing!

Power outage

Beth and Grace are in the bathroom, having adhered to the time-tested feminine preference for safety in numbers.

Grace: Ooh, it is kind of scary in the dark.
Beth: ::sings music from Psycho::
Grace: Gaaah! That is REALLY scary. You just scared up my night.
Beth: Oh. Huh. I've actually never seen it.
Grace: But I have! Augh!

Grace and Panayiota share a sappy, "girl" moment on the couch while listening to Chicago's "Will You Still Love Me"...

Cory: *guffaws* Allow me that.

Oh those Swedish Protestants

Allie: ...the Bible tells me sooooo. [Finishing a demonstration of "Jesus Loves Me" in a minor key]
Several people: That sounds like a dirge.
Julie: That sounds like something Swedish Protestants would sing after the reformation. "Major keys are for Papists."

Every blog should be about Cory

corycombs: No I mean it. If I were half as gangsta as you I would scorn sickness.
corycombs: But alas, I am not. However, I do have aspirations to equal the gangstaness of David scudder + 10 or so
corycombs: you are prolly rocking the french rap scene to its core as we speak
