Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
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.
"rhyme" is also a fun word to spell.
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."

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

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.
t edit ....and this is Buffista Conversation #562, isn't it? Time for the Groundhog Day thread!
It's because you climb with your limbs, although limb rhymes with rim, unlike climb, which rhymes with...well...rhyme.

I wonder why I ever started. Stupid brain.
