You Ever Speak Gibberish And Get Serious Replies?

  • |
Today, someone I really didn't wish to chat with persistently engaged in conversation with me. I just started replying in nonsensical strings of words, hoping to put it to an end. But that person was actually finding meaning in it and giving serious responses.

I'd say something like, "The refractions of light do suggest a medium high molecular movements of time synthesis."
The reply, "Yeah, it's a hot one today. It's supposed to be sunny tomorrow as well." The conversation went on like that for a bit until I just walked away with a wave of my hand saying, "Boustrophedonic incubations..."

          That depends on whether it's an African or European swallow.

    I am fluent in 4 languages, Australian, English, Rubbish and Gibberish...and yes I talk to myself so that only adds to the confusion (no it doesn't) [yes it does] (if you say so).

          Unless you are a man, then undue sliding will take place!

          But during the week, the elephant goes on vacation, so the dog tends to try to stare down the fluffy pink bunny!

          But bunnies are a crafty bunch, and will stare down its prey before, its prey thinks, "why am a doing this, stomp"/


          I am a master at scientific gibberish as well....

          TIME SPACE PARADOX CASE #1

          You drop your tea, (with milk and sugar) and then go back in time before you even made the tea, to tell yourself don't make the tea, or you will spill it all over you, so you wait a few seconds.

          Then do it again, becuase you were concentrating on your hand crasping the cup you hit the teapot with it!

          Then decide to go back again, and warn yourself the second time about it.

          The third time, no incident, but then a cockroach runs across your cucumber sandwitchs, and you spill it again.

          So you try again, and then when the tea is finally at your lips, you think, l am too hungry now for this, l am going out!


          Hmmm, don't seem to be in a good gibberish mood at present, more of a slash and burn mood!

              I thought that it was the Imor rate?

              During the great confrontation of the slobbersproofs, and the great uprising?

              But it might be me, l always get my slobbersproofs, and lickyslimers mixed up!

    OK, I HATE to be a party pooper, and I am often accused of that here by a certain group, but are you sure you weren't having a conversation with one of those "service bots"?

    BTW yeah, a spoon doesn't look quite the same, does it?

      Claude Whitacre, is a lot older than he looks and as such invented the word Gibberish, derived from the Latin word Gibb, as akin to Gibbon! And berish, derived from going down to the local tavern in England during the 1700, during the black death, and getting sloshed to many times!

      He also established a new state of matter called, Quantum Insanity, whereby no state in the quantum level can exist in either a gas and wave form simultaneously, just because two observers want it as such.

      Doesn't matter how hot that tea is, or how many he downed at the pub before showing up, won't happen.

      But Claude learned through experiments, and several late night office party's, that there was a way around this seemly impossible dilemma!


      Put the research into the too hard basket, and move into more promising theorys, like there will be 500 million of us left by 2100, or why is all the quality bathroom, plain soap, not available anymore, in AU, and only some stronger smelling stuff left?

      Or worse still, why is there so much crap on tv?
      I mean putting a b/w Cary Grant or Jerry Lewis, on during the day, isn't going to cost much? Far better than one English show after another about some seriously dumb couple wanting to build a shateu, in France. Or how to keep your kids on a leash for half an hour!

    I've read posts here, that I swear are just random parts of sentences strung together.

    A test for Schizophrenia (if I remember correctly) is a series of sentences where the beginning doesn't match the end.

    For example; "The young girl walked along the road, drinking a soda and watching TV."

    That's a pretty good example of one there.

      I actually did do that once several years ago. The person asked what I meant so I made up an explanation. They were impressed enough to ask more questions. I threw out some more high-sounding gibberish with just enough sense to it that they didn't seem to catch on to my game.

      The funniest part was, I used several "made up on the spot" words and they never once asked what one of those words meant.

      Yes, that silly thing amuses me every time I see it. I figured it was random silliness, but I will admit I did wonder if it was some odd British slang I'd never heard before.

      That makes too much sense. You're not fitting in well, but it's nice that you try. Keep devolving and soon enough you'll be one of us.

        I googled it awhile back. I think it paraphrases something said on some limey TV show.
