Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

I have a sore throat. Someone write me a note so I can go home.

Dear Physicists,

Let My Allyson Go.

Signed,

Moses.

Erin, so you basically say "No mas. Sé que dijiste."? Cause that would work for my students, I think.

edited to change the verb. Know is better than think, right?

I think I learned that "¿Que?" was akin to "What? (I didn't hear you)," and "¿Como?" was like, "What? (I heard you, but I don't get your meaning)," or, "Uh, how's that?"

Pretty wedding dresses. Love amych's.

No stand on toe cleavage.

Alton just made macaroni and cheese, and now I want some.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

Heh, I had just started making some mac and cheese when Good Eats came on. It was good.


JenP - Feb 16, 2005 2:41:23 pm PST #8313 of 10002

Yum. I don't have the right ingredients for mac and cheese.

But I think I can make cornbread. And I think I will.

ETA: Damn. No eggs.

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger

I'm basically a parrot with a decent accent at this point.

I guess technically it'd be "Se lo que usted dijo" but "se lo que dijo" is what myfriend said to say.

I could be saying "You smoke monkey crack" for all I know, really.

EXCEPT Babblefish tells me that would be "Usted fuma la grieta de mono."

Is "usted" kinda like formal Spanish? You just drop it when you"re doing informal conversational Spanish? anyone know?

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

You should totally say this to them in Spanish.

Usted is formal you, singular. Ustedes is plural you.

That's what I inferred. So I wouldn't use "usted/usteded" in convo, just use the correct ending on the verb for the 2nd person sing/plural tense?
