bad day hstencil?

― gaz (gaz), Tuesday, 4 March 2003 21:46 (twenty-three years ago)

Not necessarily. If I tell you more, am I violating the "without thought or argument" piece of the question?

― hstencil, Tuesday, 4 March 2003 21:47 (twenty-three years ago)

Arrrgh!

― gaz (gaz), Tuesday, 4 March 2003 21:50 (twenty-three years ago)

sorry, I was just asking!

Dr. Joyce Brothers may be well-known, but her pychology credentials are highly suspect.

I am very hungry, and have the stomach flu. I haven't eaten for two days, and feel vaguely better -- but is this because I am beating the flu, or is it simply because I haven't eaten? If I eat lunch (which I yearn to do) will I be sick afterwards?

― Colin Meeder (Mert), Wednesday, 5 March 2003 12:23 (twenty-three years ago)

My name comes up as 'Bliz' in predictive text. In the future I would like to be referred to as 'Bliz'

what bliz said

― Alan (Alan), Wednesday, 5 March 2003 13:01 (twenty-three years ago)

lixibell = liziadll. I will address you as this from now on.

― Graham (graham), Wednesday, 5 March 2003 13:03 (twenty-three years ago)

'liziadll' is barely pronounciable. And I *am* better in a scots accent. I suspect I may get blizzed tonight.

― alix (alix), Wednesday, 5 March 2003 13:14 (twenty-three years ago)

erm, that is if it means something similar to faced.

― alix (alix), Wednesday, 5 March 2003 13:14 (twenty-three years ago)

Emphasis on the zi, Welsh ll, something like:
La-zie-a-dulth. You've always wanted to be a sci-fi alien queen, right?

― Graham (graham), Wednesday, 5 March 2003 13:20 (twenty-three years ago)

Well, I still prefer Bliz. And it is now time for me to leave and for reasons of idleness spend the afternoon preparing for an evening which doesn't actually need preparing for. Oh, OK, so I'm going to have lunch and a bath and put on smart clothes, but it's still preparing, innit.

― alix (alix), Wednesday, 5 March 2003 13:23 (twenty-three years ago)

Urgh, the sandwich wasn't worth it.

It might be nearly 30 years after the apex of the civil rights movement but I believe, on the whole, white society does not *understand* the world of those who are not white. Therefore they cannot address, right or assume equality of these conditions.

Race relations have not improved since the civil rights movement. They have only become a more subliminated set of feelings.

God have mercy on our souls.

Yes, you have the right to drive an SUV, but I have the right to call you a selfish moron.

"What the last 10 minutes have taught me:
Bet the hand that your money's on."

I don't understand that last line. Sometimes I'll drop it into casual conversation and people will act like they get it. Maybe they actually do get it. I don't. Unless it's one of those painfully simple things that's so elelmentary it doesn't need to be gotten.

Kate loves Phil Collins! Excellent!

And the correct phrasing, people, is "a propos", much as it is "a capella"; and there's no "of" after "a propos". So there. humph.

I had a salmon salad and I'm sated.

― Lara (Lara), Friday, 7 March 2003 14:17 (twenty-three years ago)

You had a salmon salad? Now that's perverted.

― Matt (Matt), Friday, 7 March 2003 14:34 (twenty-three years ago)

It's actually one word, pronounced 'apROPposs' and the following 'of' is absolutely mandatory.

AFL commentators say so. It is therefore correct.

― Fred Nerk, Sunday, 9 March 2003 11:46 (twenty-three years ago)

The man in Sainsubury's forgot to charge me for the salmon pasta salad and I did realise in time but decided not to point it out cause it was Sainsbury's and I have bought stuff that has been off before and bot got around to taking it back (OK, maybe it was Safeway more) but ANYWAY I thought 'ho ho yum yum greaty lunch bonus' but ACTUALLY is was vile and almost made me be sick.

― N. (nickdastoor), Sunday, 9 March 2003 14:12 (twenty-three years ago)

The salad or your inexcusable lack of self respect?

'I like to be just like the rest I like my sugar sweet But jumpin' queues and makin' haste just ain't my cup o' meat', must be the lamest lyrics ever committed to a recording process.
