But you're sure not stuffy! Your description of yourself from the other thread as a sharer is perfect! I was going to post that yesterday, but got sidetracked and forgot.
 
Umm... they don't look to 'mini' to me... LOL..
 
The "mini" is just in the thread title to make it a close match to another thread about easy mini muffins. KG's the king of creating parody threads. :)
 
Oh I know... that was my attempt at being facetious... LOLI love parody... and spoof... just the fact that you guys here quote from Mel Brooks movies and such tells me I've found a good place to be in. LOL...

Yeah- you've found some kindred spirits around here. I won't embarrass myself by mentioning that I've been to see Weird Al live twice and have all his albums on CD (and loaded on my iPod). And DH and I have several Mel Brooks films on Laserdisc. And that I completely made a fool of myself one night at choir rehearsal laughing during one song because of it's use in a film. (We were rehearsing for a concert with the Detroit Symphony Orchestra, songs from MGM Musicals. While sight-reading through the music the first time, I just couldn't stop laughing when the accompanist started playing Putting on the Ritz. When I explained what was so funny, the entire tenor section started singing like Peter Boyle. :D )
 
Weird Al!!! Yeah!! I've gotten my 11 yo son to enjoy his stuff too... ah, passing on the gene for appreciating odd humor. His friends don't quite 'get him' but at least they've stopped asking me 'is he like this at home too?' when my answer was 'he's usually worse'... and then when they'd catch me doing something silly I'd shrug and say "yanno.. I just don't know where he gets it from?"... *giggle*But to see Weird Al live... thou art Goddess! LOL... no need to be embarrassed! LOL...

That's like DH's favorite set-up/comeback combo:
Do these pants make my butt look fat?
No, your butt makes your butt look fat.
(only replace "butt" with "@ss")
