Part of the idea with that was a "WTF?" response. It was supposed to sort of build in abusrdity as it went along. Just more failed comedy...I did accomplish a few things with it though:

1. I actually fit this sentence into a post on this board:

"Higgledy-piggledy making his way along antediluvian cobblestones he felt more like Erysichthon than Ptolemy, consumed now with procuring his morning demitasse."

I mean come on...I know MessyBear puts together some fun stuff but in all of the thousands of posts here that's gotta rate as one of the most goofball sentences in Baerwald board history!

2. I thought, you know, that perhaps people would pick up on using this when asked a question like "Hey, what are you gonna do today?"

Response: "Oh, I don't know...maybe go on a carnal search for my own Thais of Athens."

There's gotta be plenty of ways to work that into a conversation.

Also you can probably bug coworkers that are ticked off about something by saying "Aha! The wet kiss of kismet has intervened again!"

You could try it at home first or just say it to the girl at the coffee shop if she looks like she's having a bad day.

3. No other post on this board has ever worked ancient Greeks, Dante, raspberry jam, sex with euro-hotties, and Engelbert Humperdinck (the greatest name in the the history of popular music-beats Slim Whitman and Boxcar Willie by a mile) all into a single post! It's always fun to be the first to do something. Somebody had to be the first person to eat a lobster you know.
