You're right. He's evil. But you should see him naked. I mean really!

In Hebrew there's a slang expression called "teaspoon state" to describe just that. It's when the sight of a teaspoon or the pronunciation of the word are considered hillarious. Usually it involves late hours of the night and the like, of course.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
At the moment we plan on just treating it well as no other cars thrill me.
I am being good to mine, but pieces of the interior (at 75,000 miles) are falling off in my hands -- front cup holders, latch on the armrest container, thingy that covers the "ashtray" and charger socket, but most importantly, the charger itself is not working. There's one in the boot, but that's not really iPod useful.
It's irritating me.

Nilly, I love that concept.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
I have needed the "teaspoon state" concept for a long time.

If I only had a brain...

Intoxicants also help. GREAT phrase; thank you.

I look more rad than Lutheranism
I am going to incorporate "teaspoon state" into my vocabulary.
Also, can we finish this thread right quick so I stop being earwormed with "I've Been Through the Desert on a Freak With No Name" EVERY SINGLE DAY?
flea is me; I am flea.

msbelle! It's not me, it's the Hebrew. I'm betting the phrase was born in the Israeli army, but I don't have anything to back that up. I'm so glad y'all like it.
isn't this late for you?
It's 8pm. So both yes and no as to the "late", I guess. There's this scholarships ceremony on Thursday. At frst they wanted me to give a "thank you" speech. Then they wanted me to talk a bit about my research. Then they didn't want me to talk at all. Then - earlier this week - they decided they want me to talk about my research after all. And I need to e-mail them the Powerpoint presentation tonight, at the latest, so, here I am, playing on b.org, of course, as the most efficient way to finish that as soon as possible.
And how are you doing?

What is even happening?
In Hebrew there's a slang expression called "teaspoon state" to describe just that. It's when the sight of a teaspoon or the pronunciation of the word are considered hillarious. Usually it involves late hours of the night and the like, of course.I think we need to introduce this expression into the English language. I t heart it.
