To quote the album title of the musical group "The Who", who were a big famous band in the sixties, of one of their LPs,

"A Nudge Is As Good As A Wink".

This has been upgraded, or rather, modernified to keep with the times, to "A nookie is as good as a wonking."

In the interim, between then and now, some different versions had also surfaced to bind time until modernization would have a chance to take place, such as:

"Ted Nudgent is as good as The Wangooses."

"Nitzsche is as good as Wittgenstein."

"A nag is as good as a whack."


Wait a minute here... I think Wittgenstein is second rate, esp. in terms of language development; if you read Vygotsky.

I never get 'em...Of course, if I did I'd probably ignore them unless I knew the person. Then I would spam nudges like no other in hopes that she will marry me one day.

Success...Zero. Mission accomplished.smokin

SHE...???

All along I have always thought you were a woman. I guess I just viewed you in with the eyes of my mind as a delicately beautiful woman, because you always beeeech.

Imagine what my surprise would be if I had ever asked you out. Or yours.

Absolutely. But consider that Wittgensein was 69 years younger than Nietzsche, and age does make a difference in one's developing language skills.

I personally ignore them unless from someone I know. I believe some people send them hoping you will break the ice.


They should send them then to one of the seventeen Russian nuclear ice-breaker steel ships in the arctic.
