What's Love Got to do With It?

[DevilAlumna]

Love is a many-splendoured thing!

[wilson]

I wanna know what love is...I want you to show me.

[JBDuke]

Love lifts us up! All you need is love!

Ewan McGregor says it pretty well: http://youtube.com/watch?v=DUZ2gI334rY

[aimo]

I can't tell you, but it lasts forever.

It's just something you feel together.

When it's love, that is.

[hurleyfor3]

Love stinks. Yeah, yeah.

[EarlJam]

Man. Love is a battlefield where combatants tend to use sex as a weapon.

-Earl Benetar

[snowdenscold]

The opposite of love is not hate, but selfishness.

[TillyGalore]

Can you feel the love?

[EarlJam]

The opposite of love is not hate, but selfishness.

Agreed. And this line of thinking can be found in the following MeatLoaf lyrics:

1. I want you (selfish)
2. I need you (selfish)
3. But there ain't no way I'm ever going to love you. (He know's he's just being selfish, therefore, cannot love her).

He goes on to say "But don't be sad, 'cause two out of three ain't bad."

Flawed logic, of course for many reasons. Just a few:

1. Love is exponentially more important and of more value than 'want' or 'need'
2. Sometimes two of three IS bad (e.g., you lose two out of three games in baseball. That is bad. Or your doctor tells you, "You have syphilis, gonorrhea, but your cholesterol levels are good.")

But Earljam, we all know Meatloaf promised to love her 'til the end of time. (Of course, now he's also praying for the end of time.)

Wait, does this need to tie to the the Phil Rizzuto thread?

[DevilAlumna]

We also know he would do anything for Love. But not ... that.

[captmojo]

My question is : Why do they call it a Hot Water Heater? Why not simply call it a Water Heater? Why do you need to heat hot water? It's already hot anyway.:confused:

Stupid appliance noun of the day. Any others?

[EarlJam]

GREAT point! What was "that" anyway? Paying for carnal knowledge? Cheating? If any of those, it makes you wonder how Meatloaf defines, "love."

What do you or others think "that" is?

I've heard many things like this (such as driveway - you park on the driveway and drive on the parkway) but I've never heard this with the water heater. Is this your own observation Captmojo? If so, kudos to you! Good one!

I can't think of any others right now..............but I'm working on it.

Totally unrelated to this thread, but Captmojo started the randomness....

Why are they called sports commentators, instead of commentors? They comment, they don't commentate. :confused:

Just like one who gives an orientation doesn't orientate, they orient.

Although most of my shtick is hotter than any Milton Berle ever stole, I do admit this is a Mojo original. Thanks.

I like "common 'taters".:D I didn't intend to steal thr thread,. I just could not select an answer in the poll question.

[EarlJam]

The other day my boss came into my office and asked that I be here at 8:30 a.m. as a vendor was coming in to give a "dog and pony" show.

I like dogs and ponies are okay, so needless to say I was quite excited all night. The next day, I get here at 8:25 all eager to see the show. I even got snacks on the way to work.

To my extreme dissapointment there was no dog, much less a pony show at all. Just some stupid PowerPoint presentation.

I'm still not happy about that one.

These are the questions that baffle mankind. Oh, womankind too.

Is that what Doh! is telling Felton in this photo? Or is he in the act of showing Felton what love is?

The answer to all of this is 34. Or if you're Ozzie - 9F.
