Iconoclast, n. A breaker of idols, the worshipers whereof are imperfectly gratified by the performance, and most strenuously protest that he unbuildeth but doth not reedify, that he pulleth down but pileth not up. For the poor things would have other idols in place of those he thwacketh upon the mazzard and dispelleth. But the iconoclast saith: "Ye shall have none at all, for ye need them not; and if the rebuilder fooleth round hereabout, behold I will depress the head of him and sit thereon till he squawk it."

ReplyDeleteFor a less synical version of iconoclast...
Today is the 25th anniversary of iconoclast John Lennon's death.
Iconoclast: A new software to help you organize the icons on your desktop.
ReplyDeleteIconoclast? Oh. That must be me when I was chewing Sar's icon on my blog. Woof!
ReplyDeleteI remember him fondly. Cynicism isn't required for membership.
ReplyDeleteIndie, I wish I knew if you were joking.
Bad doggie!
A sect that allows icy to be a member. Didn´t know Sar was particularly religious though. Well, she adored that shoe though!
ReplyDeleteIconoclast,n., Blogger, these last few days.
ReplyDeleteAlso see, or hear, Neil Sedaka's Breaking Up Is Hard to Do. This iconoclast stuff ain't so easy.
Desecrating the very stiletto I tread in is sacriligious!
ReplyDeleteOMG! Icy did what in your shoe??? I thought she just chewed on it. Bad Icy!
ReplyDeleteTrue confession time: I love Neil Sedaka. While's he not an iconoclast, his music makes me happy.
ReplyDeleteBut I am the person who only wanted for her elementary school graduation "Last Dance," or songs about lovers being killed.
Monika, I think you have your answer.
ReplyDeleteBlogger's been a bugger, hasn't it, TLP?
Sar, bless your sole.
TLP, it get's worse.
Pia, sincerity and openness are the first steps on the path to communism. Take a cue from Sar and watch where you tread.

ReplyDeletePoobah, I'd rather add one.
ReplyDeleteThis afternoon, you were first.
That's OK, Dddragon. Your dragon's comb is sufficient.
iconoclast,n.
ReplyDeleteThe person who enters the tent - where the Dalai Lama is apeaking - last.
I\'ll come back later if I come up with something better. I come here first usually on my way to dinner. ;)
I feel bad I forgot John Lennon\'s deathday. :(
He who laughs last is the iconoclast? Makes sense. I think. I'll see you after we eat.
ReplyDeleteI think you can be forgiven. You weren't born yet. I think it was the day before yesterday. :P
Another icon, huh? Forget Iconoclast...you're iconofickle! ;)
ReplyDeleteSar, that was subtle. Well done.
ReplyDeleteDoe this mean if you work for the president you're an iconoclast?
ReplyDeleteAn iconoclast is the guy who always goes against the crowd. If everyone is talking about how much they love Krispy Kreme doughnuts, then this guy will declare his hatred for them and how bad they are for you. If everyone talks about how they are addicted to some show, this guy will lambast everyone for watching the darn thing. Iconoclasts are party poopers!
ReplyDeleteI hate it when I read blogs so late in the day. I feel like I've missed out on something. Shucks!

ReplyDeleteI'm waiting for the bordello story.
Considering the politics of this country...I am not touching this one...I would have something rather tacky to say...
ReplyDeleteHave a great one.
Fred, I think it means about that, yes.
ReplyDeleteJamie Dawn, I'm delighted to see you any old time. For some reason your comment reminded me Che Guevera t-shirts. Another possible definition of Iconoclast: An aspiring icon.
Weirsdo, I think it might be dangerous to talk about an iconoclast Unitarian.
Nice, Gabriel.
I'll leave it at your site.
Spiritdancer, I'm so glad you came over. Something tacky on this site? Heaven forfend!
Doug, I love the new pic.
ReplyDeleteI hate it when real life interferes with my blogging...
does that say anything about me?
Doug: You can download it. It's freeware.
ReplyDeleteI could have been first yesterday. But my brain was fried. Now I am what, 27? My brain is still fried...
ReplyDeleteSo, hi! I have been popping in many a time so I thought I might as well say something... Hmmmm...
Nope, stil fried.
Yes, Ariella. It says you are way too generous with your family. You should think about your needs first. Get the AF a ball of yarn to pet while you're blogging/
ReplyDeleteIndie, I sense a prank but I'll check it out. Kind of a really bad name, though.
Miz B, you are welcome at any time, anywhere in the order, brain-fried or -baked.
Doug: I was just kidding of course. There is no such thing, (that I know of).
ReplyDeleteSee, these definitions ri'chere, this is why I lay low 'round these parts. Good work!
ReplyDeleteNever can be too sure, Indie. That's from saving me from a wasted google,
ReplyDeleteBelinda, it's always a delight to see you here whether you come to play or to praise.
