When I tell the Joke with a Hebrew Accent, it's funnier than Schitska.
When Mark Anthony told it many years ago, Cleopatra laughed her Asp off..Neph

Neph, What does schitska? new one on me. Speaking of bears, Handsome Ed said he saw some bare a--s in Childersburg but they had sacks over their heads. I don't think that kind of bear are the ones we're talking about. Course he sees things other people don't. Unc

Lord, forgive me that I am not perfect and make me more appreciative of those who are.

Amen

Lathan, would you explain what kind of climax that is you were talking about in your post...that one got by me somehow...

Ahh-h-h, Favorite Son, Cubby - Climax was a Rock Group in the Sixties that recorded the song "PRECIOUS AND FEW"

Honorable Uncle ES - SCHITSKA was a word that Humble Nephew Made Up to fool Computer since it will kick the word **** off the screen.
Example: People who are constantly trying to put Honorable Nephew Down by trying to make you feel sorry for them are FULL OF SCHITSKA...

Thanks, Lathan. Whew, thought I had missed one...

I always thought SCHITSKA was a Russian slang term.

Russian Example: Tough Schitska...

Southern Russian Example: Tough Schitska, Y'all...

Didn't Climax also do 'Precious and Few?' Wait a minute, I'm finding a connection here with that sentence...

In the wise words of Confucious, The Ancient One , "Ah-h-h-h..."

Just to help out here, Cubby, since Aristupid ain't gonna even attempt to explain it, an "antithetical climax" would be kinda like Ed "gettin' it on" with Maybelle.

HAR! HAR! HAR!

What, me and Maybelle. That never happened. Understand Cubby might have liked her. Didn't he buy lots of peanuts at the ballgames. Me, I was a popcorn guy myself, not peanuts...Handsome Ed

Cubby,
Isn't it good to know that you have someone to point out how ignorant you are by defining words and phrases for you?
Oh, I forgot, you and I went to B.B. Comer... Mrs. Dean, "Where were you when Me and Cubby needed you most?"

True. By the way, who told ya'll 'bout me and Maybelle...

Cubby, I actually knew you'd understand, but I thought I'd help other, less knowledgeable "people" who just parrot "words, words, words" without much comprehension know what "they" actually SAID.

BTW, I went to B.B. Comer, too, but I was fortunate enough to have Mrs. Hare as my English teacher. Mrs. Pierce/Dean taught eighth-grade civics or something like that back then --- although when it came right down to it, she taught everything she knew about every COUSIN she ever had...which must have been about a THOUSAND! Nice lady, though.

I had Mrs. Hare when I was in the 8th grade...uh, maybe I should re-word that. Hmmmm, let's see, uh, I was a student of Mrs. Hare in the 8th grade. And I'm forever grateful to her for teaching me that a preposition is a bad thing to end a sentence with. I'll never forget it.

She had us do a writing project once on the contributions of Europeans to the United States. I wrote an article on Joseph Schlitz (at the time I was buying beer from that black guy in Alpine). The class got a good laugh about it, but I made an A on the paper...
