I can't imagine it makes you good fun, that's a bit like saying someone that bathes is good fun
it's just something you do
( Lisette von Falcon, Mon 18 Jul 2011, 16:14, Reply)

Not me
Growing vegetables is the ONLY thing I do. It defines me. It makes me who I am. You should try it too Kristine, without vegetables you life is meaningless and pathetic.

Now that's not true. You also cycle.
I can't grow vegetables, Al. The bear and deer will eat them.

Translation:
Female dogs (derogotary) had better not start behaving aggressively towards me, man who sleeps around.

Because I'm going to physically assault female dogs (derogotary) who've been saying these things, do you know what I mean?

That's how I read her translation in my head.

that's not what fo shizzle means, you're the worst translator ever

Fo shizzle means
"for shit", which in turn means "for sure".
( Kroney, Mon 18 Jul 2011, 16:39, Reply)

Duh!
Then you catch the bears and the deer, whilst they're distracted by your produce, and eat them.
(LongJohnBaldry, Mon 18 Jul 2011, 16:18, Reply)

I mean, deer is okay, but it's not my favorite.
One time we were out smoking and it started snowing and the bear was in the neighbors yard, my roommate tried to get a photo but the snow was fucking up the picture, so I offered to smack it on the ass to get it to come closer. They said no and that I couldn't outrun the bear.
( Lisette von Falcon, Mon 18 Jul 2011, 16:22, Reply)

You wouldn't have to outrun the bear
you only have to outrun your friend.
(Bazongaloid, Mon 18 Jul 2011, 16:25, Reply)

right! they're stupid, I so couldn've ran to the house too, it's not like the bear would've tried to get in
it would've just pawed at the screen door and wondered why his paw didn't go through
( Lisette von Falcon, Mon 18 Jul 2011, 16:26, Reply)

I've heard they can't get up stairs
Or maybe I'm thinking of daleks...
(LongJohnBaldry, Mon 18 Jul 2011, 16:27, Reply)

They totally can't, like how cows can't walk downstairs or whatever

( Lisette von Falcon, Mon 18 Jul 2011, 16:28, Reply)

Ah, well there's your fallback mechanism.
Even if the bear can climb the stairs, park a cow halfway up and prod it to go downstairs - they'll never get past one another! Imagine the hilarity that could ensue!

Edit: Especially if the cow and bear are both British; they'll be too polite to argue about it and spend hours trying to work out how they can get around one another whilst minimising conversation and eye contact.
(LongJohnBaldry, Mon 18 Jul 2011, 16:29, Reply)

or, right, or I could just get bear spray

( Lisette von Falcon, Mon 18 Jul 2011, 16:32, Reply)

I thought that was to stop your bear falling out of place?

(LongJohnBaldry, Mon 18 Jul 2011, 16:33, Reply)

Those women in the 60s who had massive bearhive hairdos used to go through entire cans of that stuff at a time.

(Bazongaloid, Mon 18 Jul 2011, 16:34, Reply)

It's a vaginal deodorant for when they're 'on'

( Labia Majora You keep on talking but it makes no sense at all, Mon 18 Jul 2011, 16:35, Reply)

EXACTLY
if I spray it all over the ground, AND the bear, I could keep him as a lawn ornament. Give him pretty clothes and feed him out of the palm of my hand.
It's a bit like stockholm for bears.

do you mean Stockholm Syndrome?
or actually Stockholm? because if it's the latter I think you need to learn a bit more about Sweden.

Growing vegetables give me a quiet sort of satisfaction.
I wouldn't say it made me fun. Having said that, I wouldn't say that going to bed in the morning, starting work three hours later and getting dumped by a seemingly endless stream of weak-chinned man-children would make me fun, either.
