I also want one of these.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

Gym dilemma: $16/mo for the one with more stuff, or $7.50/mo for the one that has the stuff I'd actually use, and is less of a howling pain in the ass to get to.
(Huh. Phrased like that, it seems so very obvious.)

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
Wow, Robin, that's so noble of you to take the hit for the dog. I'm afraid I'd be more likely to use mine as an emergency cushion.
It does sound like an ice cream for lunch kind of occasion.

What is even happening?
This actually makes it make more sense to me.
Okay, thanks. Except I feel dumb now.Stop that!
I have a question, on that quiz, I got all the answers correct except for number 7. I figured out number 7 on the second try, only because I knew the first two options couldn't be correct, and neither could the third, because that's what I'd answered, my first time out. Here's the question:
7. If QUIZ is written as UYMD, how do you write HEAD?
MIEH
MJEH
LJEH
LIEH
They want me to answer LIEH
Now, I'm pretty good at cryptograms. It seemed obvious to me that it couldn't be either MIEH or MJEH, because M stands in for the letter "I" in quiz, and there's no "I" in HEAD.
What am I not seeing? Why is LIEH the correct answer. Now I know with cryptograms, it's not usually a one for one substitution, in other words, just because A stands for B doesn't mean B stands for A, and I'm good with that. But because I had no more information, I chose LJEH the first time out, because there didn't seem to be enough information and there's nothing that says there can't be a one for one substitution.
I feel like it's staring me in the face, but I'm not seeing it.

5) Drum (Played by a Child)
This brings back memories of the I Love Lucy episode where Little Ricky got the drum set and played the same 5 notes continuously for days on end. Lucy started doing her housework to the rhythm, and the high point was Ethel yelling "Fred! Fred! FredFredFred!"

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
"If X then Y" is congruent to "If not-Y then not-X" in formal logic. or, because I like symbolic logic, X->Y = ~Y->~X.
Also, ~Y->~X is known as the contrapositive of X->Y. A statement and its contrapositive are always logicaly equivelent.
ION, I now have proof of who I am, so I can fly.

Cindy, the code is skip 4 letters ahead. So "e" goes e-f-g-h-i and you write "i" instead, just like "q" goes q-r-s-t-u and you write "u" instead, and "z" is z-a-b-c-d and you write "d" instead .
