Dongs and Dong salad

[ysbreker]

Well.. since we're supposed to be talking about this, what's your favorite?

[Roderick]

I... just have no idea. Yufster?

[ysbreker]

what is a dong salad anyway?

And is a dong the same thing as a wang?

And do i dare to do a google image search on dong and still keep my job?

[Roderick]

The word Dong Salad just somehow calls up a disgusting image with pubes. I'm sorry I said that just now, but there you have it. You guys force me. It's out of my hands.

[Salka]

I... just have no idea. Yufster?

Yeah?

[Roderick]

Any ideas?

[Salka]

About your favourite dong?

[ysbreker]

no, about your favorite dong (and what a dong is)

[Roderick]

And of course, your favourite appropriate salad persuasion.

[Salka]

no, about your favorite dong

That's what I said.

A dong, surely, is a type of bell.

[ysbreker]

well then, what is your favorite dong or type of bell, yufster?

[DanJW]

A dong is a flat note produced by a bell. A ding is a sharp note, and a ring is a perfect note.

[Roderick]

With that cleared up, let's investigate the salad conundrum.

[ysbreker]

I find it strange yet interesting that the wikipedia doesn't know what a dong is. It doesn't even know what a bell is for that matter.

You mean it's an onomatopoeia. But how can you have a dong salad then?

[Roderick]

The only negative thing about onomatopoeia is that it's difficult to sneak into everyday conversation. Other than that it nears perfection.

[Salka]

You want to know what my favourite flat note is? And what my favourite salad made of flat notes is?

Why?

[DanJW]

A dong salad is obviously a poetic phrase name for a complicated arrangement of dongs. A piece of experimental music perhaps.

[Roderick]

Yeah, something like the Fluxus movement would make. Wacky stuff. Dong salads. That must be it. It's a Thumb art statement.

[Salka]

So ysbreker, Rodi.., what're your favourite dongs?

[Roderick]

The dong-bolero from Ravèl.

[baconian]

I like the one at the start of hell's bells.

not addressed to me, I know, but this is the internet...

[ysbreker]

I wouldn't know if a flat note hit me over the head, robbed me and left me for dead in the gutter. But otherwise I think I'd have to go with un sandpiper by kyuss. if that's what you mean by flat note?

[lottie]

well colour me traumatised. i am not sure i can discuss donging so openly with people i've only just met...

[MrChlorophyll]

well colour me traumatised.

Well... initiation complete, I guess.

Buddy of mine took an elbow to the eyebrow a few days ago. The sound it made echoed through the room, I swear it. While technically not a dong, it was certainly a fascinating flat sound.

[Dingo Chavez]

My shoes make squeaky sounds when I walk with them and it's driving me crazy, by the way.

That's what you get for buying shoes that don't require shoe-laces.
