It's simple. I slap 'em around a bit, torture 'em, make their lives hell...Sure, the nice guys'll run away,but every now and then you'll find a prince like Spike who gets off on it.

Nana korobi, ya oki. (Fall down seven times, stand up eight.) ~Yuzuru Hanyu/Japanese proverb

Yup, definitely one of those things that is so simple you overthink it way too easily. I used to always get at least one question on any test wrong, because I'd outthink myself into an incorrect distractor. Plus, once I got it in my brain that it was a "math" problem, I kept looking for a pattern that would make something like (n-1)squared . Gah. Also, one clue is that the answer is always an even number. It didn't give me the answer right away, but I new it had to mean something.

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there

Okay, now I'm starting to think it's not so much a test of intelligence as of pedantry. Can you or can you not get past the use of the singular when the answer draws from the plural?

FTR, no.

Hee.

"We have trust issues." Mylar

Y'all West coast people are thinking about dinner at 3:30? My dinner plans usually firm up when I'm standing in front of the fridge trying to figure out what to do with a half a block of cheese, some cold cuts and a bottle of tabasco sauce.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

I am not with you plural folks. Why not Buffy the Vampires Slayer?

"We have trust issues." Mylar

Alas, no tortillas. And dutch country potato bread burritos? Not so much with the appetizing.

I actually do have food because DH and I went grocery shopping this weekend. We also painted, bought a new area rug and went furniture shopping. So all in all, quite the weekend of domestic bliss.

eta: Yet another fabulous, fun number! I'm quitting while I'm ahead.
