There is one other golden animal...
The Golden Turtle. But he lives far away, in a land unassailable by humans and giraffes. He lives ... in Madagascar.

An old lady gets into a taxi in Boston and asks the driver if he knows a place where she can get scrod. The driver responds: "Jeez, that's the first time I've heard it in the pluperfect subjunctive..."
Shit! Thats like forever away from here. Maybe if we ride a bus we can get there and kill of the Madagascarians and steal their Golden Turtle, hell it worked for the Turks!Quote:

I'm sorry, Stone. I ... think I get it but ... I've never been very good with phrases like "pluperfect subjunctive".Quote:

Yankee!?! Where?! I'LL KILL EM'!
Not to ruin it, but the joke is that the driver thinks she means "screwed", but since she's an old lady (grammar matron-type), she uses the 'correct' form of "screwed", the pluperfect subjunctive, which is "scrod". Doesn't matter what the pluperfect subjunctive is, just funny to think that some taxi driver would recognize it, and think it common enough that some old woman would use it when she was looking for sex. Heheh, not so funny anymore now.
Stone, that sounds like Commie talk!
I got the sexual reference, I just ... didn't know what a "pluperfect subjunctive" was. My English skills stopped at that.
And Clash is right. That's commie talk.
A pluperfect subjunctive is something like saying "I thought he had gone crazy, given his new beliefs on the war."
