Sir, I have not yet begun to embarrass myself with fire. I may, however, pre-emptively remove all hair from my body to prevent a further 'wicking' effect.

Mister Opinion,

I appreciate your enthusiastic opinion of the similarities of Chicago vs. San Francisco, but I'm quite sure that Chicago was where the concept of 'absolute zero' was first coined and measured. It's true that I am one of those wimps who values his bodily molecular activity, even in the winter. I propose a compromise - why don't all three of us meet half way, and relocate to Laramie, Wyoming. We could start another branch, "LR0", and endorse tasks that involve exploring corn fields, tipping cows and taunting religious fundamentalists with challenging social insights. I think the high score task would probably involve a bug zapper, a bottle of tabasco and a rather wilted looking cheese pizza.

I sincerely hope you have a good selection of recipes for tumbleweed.

Nick

P.S. I agree that Australians are snobbish.

Must perform cat functions (aside from laying on your bed etc.)


Cats do something other than laying around? You must be talking about some genetically enhanced super cat!

You know Waldo, the task itself was really just an excuse for the labeling and immolating of my pants. I've been meaning to do this for years, but haven't managed to find a context where it made sense until now.

I think it is a proverb, though I'm no wordie and have no scrabble credentials. Check it out, I found this on the internet, vindicating my interpretation of this as a proverb:

The Encyclopedia Britannica describes proverbs as "succinct and pithy sayings that are in general use and express commonly held ideas and beliefs."


"It will all come out in the wash" seems equivilent to a concept of Karma or perhaps "What goes around comes around". Which is ironic, because that happens a lot inside the washer as well.

I did learn that my pants were somewhat flame retardant. Good to know.

Damnit, I was walking home from an appointment today and passed this:

FREE ROCKS FREE

Oh, cruel cruel irony.

Wouldn't it be weird if they took off your cast and found that a small family of moles had taken up residence?

Thanks zer0gee - everyone here is so friendly, whereas my roomates only give me condescending looks when they see me gluing glitter and feathers to my next completion. :^)

The tyranny of bucking the trend, eh? Usually when people give me condescending looks, I try to justify their negative attention by crossing my eyes and sticking my tongue out.

You didn't happen to see a black monolith nearby when you were smashing those rocks together did you?
