So, I see your trifecta. Is this your roommate or something, or do you just have a hankering for a spankering?

I suspect it's having a hankering for a wankering since it was preemptively posted to MeTa.

Where's ypur song about bad eggs, the project post for your bad eggs website, and the job looking for someone to handle your bad eggs? This stunt is a limper.

Put them all in the one basket, as it were? Bad idea.

Come on! I want Bad Eggs (c) the song! And the job at BadEggCorp! What about the Bad Egg 2.0 mashup at Projects?

Note: meetup threads now stay open for six months

Probably not this one, though.

I believe that all eggs are bad eggs. I hate them. They should all die. Or hatch into chickens, and then I will eat them.

I wouldn't eat a chicken that came from a bad egg.

Will one basket be enough?

It would be an evil chicken.

Shame they weren't thorough enough to make a song out of it.

sitting here by the train tracks
with my banjo on my legs
you and me, we're outlaws baby
nothing better than bad eggs

so light another cigarette
and have some beer- look out for dregs
look out now, a freight train comin'
can't afford to lose your legs

Six o'clock and I wanna rock
but i'm feelin' outta kilter
it's banjo and booze until i die
and drunk-posting on MetaFilter

Aww, cut the guy a break. In a few hours he's going to be waking up to a really bad hangover.

I was just thinking it had been a really long time since I'd seen rampant silliness break out around here.

I'm guessing tellurian's been licking those Australian psychoactive toads, although i can't rule out a quarter of shrooms.

Oh man all the bad eggs in my town got together once and the took over the high school and made the principal play rock and roll on the PA and used the school shop to make bongs and threw the best dance ever and we learned they weren't bad eggs at all but people too with wants and needs and better taste in music.

I'm not going to be hard on you, tellurian, because I'm sure you'll feel like a complete ass when you wake up.

You're looking at the fallout from one of the most awesome, high-rolling MeFi meetups ever. The only reason the mods haven't shown up yet is because they're rolling around on the floors nursing their hangovers.

The thing about the easter bunny is that you really, really don't want to mistake him for any other rabbit or hare, since the little chocolate eggs they leave are not delicious.

Whatever the reason is for three dumb posts, um, they're dumb and I just deleted the others and will be doing the same here.
