Title: Rampant Badassery!
Post by: ms. yvon on Sep 09, 2008, 09:20 PM
before the waterfront show i ordered some stickers that i'd planned to pass out at the concert.

they say:  RAMPANT BADASSERY  on them.  they've finally arrived and they are pretty rad!  if you want one, just send me a self-addressed stamped envelope.  the sticker will fit in a letter sized envelope (the ones that are about 9 x 3 in.--i don't have a ruler on me. )

to get my address, PM me.

i've got 100 of these stickers and will pass them out after the upcoming shows (portland, seattle, los angeles)  until they are gone.  for the love of pete, please don't put the stickers on anything at the venues.

**THE STICKERS HAVE NO MMJ LOGOS OR TEXT ON THEM, AND ARE NOT CONNECTED TO THE BAND AT ALL--this is strictly the descriptive line i'm giving this tour.  every tour, really, but let's not quibble.**   [smiley=beer.gif]

I predict that Badassery will be a word in next year's National Spelling Bee.

Imagine this.....

Can you use that in a sentence?

The rampant badassery emanating from Radio City Music Hall during the My Morning Jacket show was at an all time high.

Are there any other pronunciations?

I show just the one.

Can you give me the origin of speech?

It's Old English converted to American English and then developed further on the west coast.

Badassery...........Badassery

B A D A S S A R Y


Oh no, I'm sorry, it's E R Y.   Spend more time on the Jacket forum next year honey.

[/color]
of course, the last one went to weenie-b, who's already gotten her sticker, i'm just behind in updating.

i'm pretty stoked about the number of stickers getting around in the Los Angeles area.  i would love to see one roll by on a bike, or stuck on a notebook.  i got an email from some friends in portland titled, "sticker spotted!" from their description, it sounded like vespachick's truck! ;D

i handed the sticker headed to connecticut to our office intern, bradley as he was leaving on his last day.  forgot to ask him which town in connecticut he's returning to.  so!  this will just be a state listing.  still,
CONNECTICUT IS STATE NUMBER 7!

so, stickers from batch number two arein:
[size=16]14% OF US STATES!! and 3 COUNTRIES![/size]
i'm gonna have to hook up a US graphic in which i can color code the states with and without stickers.  i'll include the stats from the first round, too.

ohh...stand by.  just got a good idea.   :D

here's the skinny.

i found this US map online.
(http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v617/msyvon/Stickermap.jpg)
i'll color in all the states that have gotten stickers.  as new states get added, i'll color them in an post a new pic with the updates.

i'll be using the camera on my laptop to take the pix, so they won't be very clear, but we'll get the idea.
i'll come up with some fun way to indicate the non-US countries.  :)

you may be thinking, "ms. y, it's friday afternoon.  shouldn't you be working?"  *cough*  

editor's note:  this photo looks really dull.  maybe i can mooch some scanning capability somewhere.  [smiley=huh.gif]

My parents old fridge was like that- we loved it, its so cool being able to just look at all the pictures and memories- didn't matter how many times i've seen them, always found myself exploring.

They got a new fridge and the magnets dont work on it :( damn you stainless steel!

I had the pleasure of meeting and hanging by the rail with ms. Y at the Santa Barbara Bowl and now this post resurfaces from long ago that connects the dots for me back to rampant badassery...that's an example of rampant badassery!

ms. Y, I am actually much more charming than I was at the show, but I was too...uh...introspective...to carry on a reasonably coherent conversation...you know, the kind of introspective where you say something out loud and then a minute later, you can't remember if you actually said it out loud or just thought it... ;) ha.  Anyhoo, thanks for holdin down my spot and thanks for being cool when dondante made me spill beer on your feet.  :)
