I do not wish to scare the children, or say, get fired, but thanks for the idea. I will certainly wear less clothing tomorrow.
ita should totally come visit me and work from my office.
and shrift should call in sick tomorrow and Wednesday.
Hey, I've been in a firefight before! Well, I was in a fire. Actually, I was fired from a fry-cook opportunity. I can handle myself.

My friend B couldn't believe anybody could be so horrible at that as I was, if not on purpose. No rhythm.
The word "rhythm" is strange to spell. Whenever I want to put a vowl, there's an "h".

There was a brew pub here to did coffee beer. It tasted fine, but it smelled way better than it tasted.
My bro's brewpub has a coffee stout. I cannot vouch for it, though, since I haven't visited yet. However, maybe Nora or Tom tried it when they were there.

Sure I went over to the Dark Side, but just to pick up a few things.
"rhyme" is also a fun word to spell.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
When I was in first or second grade, I was really annoyed at the way "comb" is spelled.

Also, why is "climb" spelled C-L-I-M-B instead of C-L-I-M-E?

What? No love for the silent "B"?
It allows you to mentally say "Clim-buh" and "com-buh."

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

You start worrying about that now, you'll never be done.

"Mister Spock is on his fanny, sir. Reports heavy damage."
What is really weird is that rhyme and rhythm do not use "rhy" in the same way.
My tempo by myself isn't hot -- I gather that most people, given their druthers, speed up in the middle of a song -- but I can follow someone else's tempo just fine. I think that the general populace believes that enthusiasm trumps actual ability, even in topics so basic as "when to clap".
Sort of like all those people who don't understand that we do not have their headphones and even if we did, we would not care for any sing-along assistance, especially not from the tone-deaf.

Only if you're mentally illiterate.
Of course, I was the annoying friendless pedantic second-grader who RAILED against my classmates' pronunciation of "PUH-sketti" and "crown" (for "crayon").
And I still don't understand people who say "Missour-UH" and "Cincinnat-UH." There's a freaking I on the end of the names, people.
