    Well then that shows the difference between "pure" and "purestrain" gold I was talking about; purestrain can't be gold that doesnt fulfil it's full abilities including to not change over time -

Awesome.
I think it deserves its own thread.

I particularly enjoyed the "shadowy overlord" lady. And now in other news, dogs, apparently, are responsible for all the barking in your neighborhood. This has been another episode of the blatantly obvious, thank you and good night.

I feel really bad right now. I heard a 'crunch' sound when I stopped in front of my building door, looked down, and see that I just stepped on a recently deceased bird that apparently flew itself into the glass. I feel terrible. I know the bird is dead already, but stepping on the body and probably breaking all those little birdy bones just makes it worse.  :cry:

Don't feel bad.  It may have only been unconscious before you stepped on it.

Wait, I guess that doesn't help much.

Dear Mr. Z.

Will you please order some really big spoons, which I will use to spoon feed the material to my students?  Apparently the spoons I have now are WAY TOO SMALL.

Thank you.

Not a good day. Found out I need ear surgery and got into a car accident with a guy who doesn't speak any English and may or may not have legit insurance. Need to wait for my adjuster to call back after checking out the other guy's info. Only reason why I question it is because he was very nervous and the name he gave me wasn't even remotely close to what was on the card he had.

My favourite part of medicinal ads is the side-effects. This one has turrets! Yes! Finally! An excuse for suddenly blurting "cheese-monger" in the middle of a sentence, where no else gets it!  :lol:

It was a joke from college, you had to have been there to get, but it's still funny to me. You say, "Just think..." I say, "Cheese-monger!" Here is the line it is derived from. You say, "Just think of all the possibilities..." I interject, "I don't care if you're my favourite cheese-monger, I'm not buying it." We had a chef/professor who would say the "just think" line all the time, and he had worked as an actual cheese-monger in France. It became a "thing". It's funnier when your drunk, but then, so is randomly shouting, "Soylent Green is people!" Hey, the turrets excuse works there too!  :-D

What? Hey, dude, it's turret's syndrome, I can't help it.
