I'm thinking that the conversation surrounding "what up" may be entirely misguided.

Certainly, the phrase was used throughout the country at one time or another, in one variation or another.

I think - and forgive me if I am way too far off base here - the point here is that our dorky little friend is so disassociated from his peer group that he has no idea what is the appropriate pronounciation.

The nanosecond a phrase like that one is co-opted by middle class society it becomes obsolete. Therefore, I would argue, that the entire conversation was obsolete at its inception.

Now about those dreamy green eyes...


I am so reaching out for something to argue about

One of my favorite albums from the early 90s was "What Up, Dog" by Was (Not Was) (who were originally from Detroit.)

LOL "everybody on the floor...somethin' somethin' walk the dinosaur"

Woo Hoo ...Hey suze please check my recollection on that? Perhaps share with those here who were yet to be conceived when you were jazzercising (j/k)

As far as plot discussion...
I mean, I'm not really sure where to post this question/statement.
So, Spencer is Bree's brother? They speak exactly the same way.

Oh, by the way, I'm new.

OK, Taig, you asked for it :twisted: I love it because it sounds like a regular dance/R&B song, but the lyrics are v. strange.

And you're exactly right about when I was listening to it, but it wasn't at Jazzercise, I was walking the floor with mai bebehs trying to get them to shut the &*@!* up and go to sleep :shock:

WALK THE DINOSAUR
Boom boom acka-lacka lacka boom
Boom boom acka-lacka boom boom

It was a night like this forty million years ago
I lit a cigarette, picked up a monkey skull to go
The sun was spitting fire, the sky was blue as ice
I felt a little tired, so I watched Miami Vice
And walked the dinosaur, I walked the dinosaur

CHORUS:

Open the door, get on the floor
Everybody walk the dinosaur
Open the door, get on the floor
Everybody walk the dinosaur
Open the door, get on the floor
Everybody walk the dinosaur
Open the door, get on the floor
Everybody walk the dinosaur

I met you in a cave, you were painting buffalo
I said I'd be your slave, follow wherever you go
That night we split a rattlesnake and danced beneath the stars
You fell asleep, I stayed awake and watched the passing cars
And walked the dinosaur, I walked the dinosaur

CHORUS

[spoken] One night I dreamed of New York
You and I roasting blue pork
In the Statue of Liberty's torch
Elvis landed in a rocket ship
Healed a couple of lepers and disappeared
But where was his beard?

A shadow from the sky much too big to be a bird
A screaming crashing noise louder than I've ever heard
It looked like two big silver trees that somehow learned to soar
Suddenly a summer breeze and a mighty lion's roar
I killed the dinosaur, I killed the dinosaur

CHORUS 2:

Open the door, get on the floor
Everybody kill the dinosaur
Open the door, get on the floor
Everybody kill the dinosaur
Open the door, get on the floor
Everybody kill the dinosaur
Open the door, get on the floor
Everybody kill the dinosaur

Boom boom acka-lacka lacka boom
Boom boom acka-lacka boom boom

i remember people saying "what up holmes" back in the day. whatever "day" that was, i can't remember, but it wasn't recently.

i would like to point out that the juxtaposition of "what up" with "blogosphere" was golden geekiness.

however, i think he kinda misused that term -- which was probably done on purpose. i usually think of the blogosphere as comprising the internet community of text blogs. it doesn't include myspace (except blogs on myspace) or forums like this one, or youtube vloggers (unless they post video blogs on a text blog also). but it was funny to title a blog "what up blogosphere" a few bloggers have used it before, but not very many.
