At least 50 MF-ites have claimed a varitaion of this. Come clean - admit that you're lying, that you're simply being clichéd. Maybe I'm getting annoyed erroneously - if so, tell your story, what happened next? Did you ruin your computer? Did you have to call the IT person over? I know this is startlingly trivial but curiosity compels me to find out if I should keep being irritated by this phrase or if in fact there is an epidemic of coffee spluttering affecting the people of Metafilter.

I've been hating (not, I mean hating) that half-wit bullshit shorthand for years now. It is used all over the goddamn intermap, all the goddamn time, not just here.

I've nipple-tweaked a few people about it, here and elsewhere, when I was feeling cranky. I've wearily clambered, over and over again, up to the top of the nearest clocktower, carrying an automatic weapon, a radio-controlled mouse, and a paper cup of delicious instant coffee, just waiting for the moment some idiot used some variation of the hated phrase rather than coming up with something less rote-learned. I've squeezed off a round or two at the moon, because I invariably forgot what I was up there for.

Never felt compelled to start a MeTa thread about it, though.

But did you really reach over and grab someone's nipple and tweak it as you claim? Really?

Well, perhaps I should start a MeTa thread about this obvious falsehood.
posted by Space Coyote at 5:00 AM on September 3, 2003


Yeah I realise this is very tenuous territory but I did have a couple of slight reasons:
1. To see a list of damage done to computers through the alleged spurting. This mundane list would thrill me and hopefully I wouldn't be alone [though I quite see the potential that I may].
2. Or if the spurting was all a big lie others would suggest different phrases that they feel are sliding into the world of cliché.

By the way, I don't think myself above cliché - just pointing out one whose absence would improve the glamourous/glossy world of metafilter.com.

I did, once, in fact, truly and honestly, spray Appletize out of my nose and mouth onto my monitor, while watching Superman 3, at the point when Richard Prior is wearing an enourmous green foam novelty cowboy hat and falling about drunk in some sort of control room.

The damage was, thankfully, minimal, and after pausing to wipe the monitor down with a T-shirt lying on the floor next to my desk, I returned to watching the film, only to find it wasn't as good as I thought it was when I was little, with the notable exception of Prior's amusing headgear.

Is that the sort of thing you're after meech? Perhaps someone could purchase www.truespraystories.org and build a thriving community of nasal beverage expellers...

We use conventional phrases in our dealings with others all the time. We say, "How are you?" to people, and often we don't really want to know how they are. It's just a greeting phrase, not meant to be taken literally. In the text-oriented world that is MetaFilter, I believe conventional phrases are even more important. This one means, "I laughed at your comment and/or post really really hard, much harder than I normally laugh at things I read on MetaFilter." You want people to say THAT over and over again instead?

Well, if you're really sick of the liquid-on-the-computer imagery, I'm sure this crowd can come up with another one. Probably something to do with pancakes. Pancakes that vibrate.

posted by madamjujujive at 6:30 AM on September 3, 2003


Now listen here, spewing (and snorfing, an important variant that we shall discuss later) are time-honored measures of funniness. I choose to believe that at least one person who has told me he spewed coffee on his keyboard at something I wrote really did spew coffee. This means a lot to me and I will not have it taken away by some cranky MeFi nitwit who wants to question the veracity of the entire coffee-spewing trend!

And "snorfing" is the correct term for what jack_mo is refferring to when he says "I did, once, in fact, truly and honestly, spray Appletize out of my nose and mouth onto my monitor..." (dabitch also refers to this phenomenon above.)

When nasal passages become involved, it is a much higher distinction than simple "spewing." Once, at a birthday party in 5th grade, someone (Robbie Brennan?) said something so funny that I snorfed spicy pepperoni (from a pizza) out through my right nostril. The pain was intense, yet I just kept on laughing.

Now if I could only remember what the joke was...
posted by Shane at 6:44 AM on September 3, 2003


Ah, but madamjujive, how many nipple-tweaking monitor spewers do we REALLY have?

I for one have never tweaked a nip. Becuase that's just unkind. And I don't drink coffee ever. I have, however, been surprised to find just how hard I can be laughing while maintaining the ability to type.
posted by orange swan at 6:47 AM on September 3, 2003


If we acted in real life the same way we do on MeFi I could picture a lot of actual physical nipple incidents. You know, between the spewing of coffee in each others' faces.

I was at the Barnes and Noble public library last night, breezing through a copy of Al Franken's new book. I'll cop to the fact that I was drinking a caramal macchiato. There, I said it. Around page 100, Franken lays into this chart that Sean Hannity used in his book, replacing the values in one spurious column with the words, "This column makes no fucking sense." I was not expecting to find humor in a table illustrating congressional budgets and thus I did, in fact, spray a bit of caramel macchiato on the page.

I don't think I've ever sprayed coffee onto my keyboard, though. And I'm not sure if caramel macchiato counts as coffee. But I did do the honorable thing and purchase the book.

<anecdote type="personal/rambling">

Recently, in a wholly unintentional historical reenactment of the vintage FoxTrot strip, I spilled about 300ml of Coke into the keyboard of a computer which a friend had lent me for the summer while he went overseas. I managed to pour most of it out, but enough ended up pooling around the bottom rows to throw in some temporary damaging effects.

Interestingly enough, the Coke ended up crossing a few keyboard wires, metaphorical or otherwise, so that hitting Z would result in a T, X would result in a U, and other exciting reassignments. What made this notable, however, was the fact that this keyboard had Standby and Power buttons at the top, which also ended up conveniently reassigned: now, to put the system on standby, you needed only to press the left Shift key. Poweroff was, appropriately enough, the left-hand Microsoft Windows key. So for a few days while the Coke dried out, the Windows key actually held some practical use for me.

Once, while drinking a gin and tonic (I am not gay) at a bar after work, a friend asked another friend and coworker how he was getting along with his new desk job at the bank. The coworker responded by puffing out his chest and saying proudly, "I've been promoted to President of the United States!" And I spit gin and tonic (again, not gay) on the third party friend who asked the question. And just this past weekend I had to spit water into a glass (alas, not my glass, even) to prevent myself from choking or spraying it all over the livingroom, but for the life of me I cannot remember what was so god damn funny.

I've certainly L-O-Led while reading Mefi, but I've never spit anything out as a result. Nor have I ever rolled on the floor with laughter, online or off, but I did laugh so hard I fell out of a chair while watching "Whose Line Is It Anyway."

Or maybe I was drunk.
posted by jennyb at 7:59 AM on September 3, 2003


I've never spewed anything--and I don't believe I've admitted to doing so--but that's only because we're not allowed beverages at work and because I have no running water at home. In fact, my computer is coal-fired, and made of papyrus.

I can honestly say (well, I can, who can prove otherwise?) that I have spurted tea out my nose reading something online at least once in the past.

More amusing is when a co-worker and I would IM each other and type "LOL" when we could HEAR each other laughing (or not). Computers make you weird.

Shane, I must have gotten it backwards, I thought snorfing meant inwards (as in spaghetti up the nose) whereas splurting was out (as in spaghetti out through the nose). Pepperoni probably hurts a million times worse. Wanna get a pizza and discuss? :)

I nearly sprayed coffee over my iBook this morning. Always make coffee in a cafetiere & for some reason we have espresso-blend coffee at the moment [= finer grounds]. When I pushed down the plunger the pressure under it forced a load of coffee up thru the spout & then horizontally accross a 12" radius. Just missing the computer. Which was shut anyway.

Snorfing sounds like a cousin of "Olympic Jello snorfling," a competitive event tracing it's history back to Bloom County.

I definitely had the impression that snorfling was in, not out.

BTW, Google has one hit for "olympic jello snorfling."

Well, it'll probably have another in a week or so...

I thought snorfing meant inwards (as in spaghetti up the nose) whereas splurting was out (as in spaghetti out through the nose).

Hmm. My tail is between my legs (and this is not easy -- try it yourself sometime.) Snorfing may indeed refer to the uptake, not the, um, outtake, of material through the nasal passages (and onto whatever or whomever is in front of you).

Or maybe it's all a matter of T's and F's? I mean, snorting is definitely in-thru-the-nose. And splurfing may actually be forceful-nasal-ejection of the goods.

I dunno. dabitch, I'll hop a plane to Copenhagen and we can discuss T's and F's and then splurf, snorf, and splorff all over each other (if you're into that sort of fun?)
(Okay, so nobody's spewing or snorfing over this comment. Oh well.)

One of the funniest comedy sketches I've ever, ever seen in my whole life was put on by a troupe at my universtiy. The entire cast came out and pretended they were at a party, all holding drinks. A conversation vignette between two or three of them would be spotlighted. About three to four sentences into said conversation, one of them would say something shocking like "Did you hear Tanya got engaged in three days?" and the other members of the conversation would spew their drinks. This progressed until there were vignettes where nobody was saying anything funny at all, but after a single sentence (or midway through it), the other members of the conversation would spew.

Hilarious. Pure comedy gold. Loses something in translation.

Okay, I totally WIN THIS CONTEST! (And I love this post -- everytime I read that line about spewing coffee I think "LIAR!")

I was in an internet cafe in Miami... last winter? Yeah. Last winter. I finally totally hooked up my G3 mac laptop to their stupid ethernet whatever and commenced browsing, laptop on, surprisingly enough, my actual lap. Whatever, I answered email, I blogged a little, I checking in on MeFi -- I was an obsessive MeFi reader at the time -- and I wish, I WISH, I knew what I was reading, but I started cracking up and the laptop slid off my lap and bounced on its side off the floor.

The laptop remains, but the screen card or the screen itself is fucked: it looks like a Paul Smith bag, with vertical multicolored lines running up and down. When I read white text on gray backgrounds (AHEM!) I have to move the browser window around to read all the words.

Of course, I'm STILL using the fucking thing every day, although I'm frantically saving to buy a new one.

THE END. Pity me.

meech, let me just say this is an EXCELLENT POST, and that I'll bet everyone who was snarking about it up top was just defensive because they'd used the phrase too much themselves. Like RJR I've often thought "yeah, right" when I read that.

And remember, "I just spat coffee all over my computer" is not a figure of speech like "nipple-twisting" or ROFLMAO. It's a statement. Subject, verb, object, prepositional phrase. Just because a statement is cliched doesn't automatically elevate it to figure-of-speech status.

For some reason every time I think of that I start laughing -- even though I should probably be disgusted.

What about a new movement...something is so funny that it makes you drink a liquid of your choice...a G/T for one of those really Greek statements, a frappahinco is show erudite delight at anothers sly wit, Budwiser for when you fell very not gay.

And for the record, as a celibate male, y'all are sex obsessed except WolfDaddy who at least is getting some.

Hmph. I always thought Budweiser was the American redneck repressed-homosexual "I am not gay!" beer of choice. Lousy beer, too. But I get your point.

How does one fall in a "not very gay" way? Is it a bottom-first prat fall?

The Genger Genie says Thomcat is alien. (But it's part of his charm.) clavdivs, too. Where the hell is clav these days, anyway? He's not as ubiquitous as he once was.

Wow. Something tells me that Ben and Jerry are going to have some kind of "drive by" related accident.
