I don't have any major objection to "wasn't expecting that," but is it a reference or something? Because it seems a little bland to me.
I liked "Auld Fang Syne."

It really doesn't matter. It's just an opinion. Don't worry about it. Not worth the hassle.
Actually, Wolfram, it referred to the investigation into massive voter fraud in four states, including Oklahoma, where the machines started counting backward after they hit a certain point. Either side can hijack an election. On my mind because I've been involved in the correspondence back and forth with the GAO.
But really, not worth the aggro of arguing over it.

edit: Frank, Tom and I have started househunting in Salem!
Woohoo! Yes, get in before the prices here get beyond the reach of sanity. I'm about to start apartment hunting, and part of me thinks I'll end up staying out here just to keep prices down a little.

2004: Well, I wasn't expecting that.
Seems to have the largest support, so far, with "Oy, Humuag" only a little behind.

Excellent, those are my two favorites. It wasn't a bad year for me at all [knocks wood] what with the getting married, honeymoon in New Orleans, book being published, being on the radio and going to Chicago to name just the obvious highlights.

I think we all like whiskers on kittens. What's not to like?
Gah! What are you, a freak?!
Whiskers? On kittens?!
Why don't you just say you enjoy schnitzel with noodles, you damn Communist!

Mmmmm, schnitzel. Ziguener schnitzel's the best!
I'm all for "I wasn't expecting that." As mentioned, covers a lot of territory. And we pissed on all of it this year.
