Hey jennarenn, if you let me know what school (johnatwordie.org), I'll contact a sysadmin there and see if they'll lift the blockade. Lots of admins are sympathetic if you ask nice.

You could also try going through a proxy. And you can see specific pages by using Gooble's cache.

Probably because of me and all my fucking bad words.

My guess is that it was blocked because it was engaging, creative, and instructive. Can't have THAT in our schools.

about 1 year ago uselessness said:

What the hey ho? Did they block it as a result of you coming here all the time, or just as a matter of happenstance? Either way, major suckage.

"Todal.com" is for sale--only $24,500! It features "extreme brandability."

I'm sold. Who's in?

On a second Googling now, it seems Wordie links are fourth and fifth in a search for "todal". I'm constantly amazed at how googlipresent this site is. Someday we'll show up first in everything.

And if you haven't read The 13 Clocks yet, go read it - right now! Shoo!

about 1 year ago chained_bear said:

Oh, yes, rabbits scream. It's terrible. Terrible. I hate that sound. I don't ever want to hear it again.

about 1 year ago reesetee said:

Not to worry, uselessness. I'm a Thurber fan. Already got it after trivet's reference. :-)

about 1 year ago uselessness said:

For what it's worth, I didn't write that description. The Todal is a monster in James Thurber's book The 13 Clocks. I've never read it (and had never heard of it), but after trivet listed it I got curious about the "blob of glup" thing and did a little Googling. The description I posted comes from this page, which really just summarizes all the fragmented descriptions that Thurber scattered throughout the book. Apparently. I'm not that imaginative. ;-)

*Shiver* - it todally gave me nightmares when I was little.

That is the ugliest--no, the fugliest--lip I've ever seen. Ever.

And I had no idea that rabbits can scream.

about 1 year ago kewpid said:

Absolutely. We should distinguish by pronouncing it with emphasis on the second syllable. to-DAHL.

about 1 year ago chained_bear said:

This word should not be confused with toadal, of or pertaining to toads.

If it were Grug Maria, maybe!

about 1 year ago kewpid said:

If it's not available you could elope with Grug.

Uselessness's imagination is a dangerous thing.

about 1 year ago chained_bear said:

If you love it so much, why don't you marry it?!
(say in snarky middle-school voice)

( :) Sorry, I couldn't resist. Today's been a day for getting my snark on.)

Actually, it's just... it's made of lips for god's sake!! Just like... like... hot dogs! Gross!

I actually think that blobfish is kind of cute.

That's it. This is a Conversation for the Ages.

If you stare long enough you can see a grumpy man face.

That. Is. Disgusting.

It looks something like this.

I think we need a medic in here.

about 1 year ago uselessness said: Dis word iss todally cool!

A Todal is a creature that looks like a blob of glup that makes a sound like rabbits screaming and smells like an old unopened room. It is made of lip and feels as if it has been dead for a dozen days. It moves about like monkeys and shadows and cannot be killed. It was created as an agent of the devil to smite those who do evil but not to their fullest extent.
