I SAID SHANGAAN AND MEDIEVAL ITALIAN.
Clearly, there are languages I've never even heard of.
Home schooling? You know, it's not just for scary religious people anymore.

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risque (and frisque), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Always Anti-fascist!
Jeez. These new-style fathers...my dad wouldn't have had a clue what languages I was deprived of. Except for "asshole" being one of my first words...my real dad is probably Denis Leary.ETA: Watch A. become a linguist and really do that...she could make fun of me in all her languages.

Shit's all sorts of different now.
A-N-N-A-B-E-L.
I apologize for spelling it wrong, and made sure I fixed it.
And we knew people were going to spell her name 20 different ways when we named her Annabel.
Same with Emeline.

Thrive to spite them
I'm trying to decide what to do tonight. My choices are:
A) eat leftovers, go to Dad's and watch hockey. It's Canadiens vs Rangers, this is the same thing I'll be doing tomorrow, except I'll be watching Tampa play Atlanta, and flipping to whatever OLN is showing during the commercials.
or
B) eat leftovers, stay at home with the lights off to avoid trick or treaters (I have no candy) and watch more Starsky and Hutch.

move out and draw fire
"Shangaan" isn't a language, it's a tribal affiliation.
Now I'm really gone. Third time's the charm.

Not so nice is that I'm about to ruin a Friday morning for a bunch of people because of a series of unfortunate events and an upset foreign government. - shrift
A-N-N-A-B-E-L. THERE IS NO "LE" AT THE END OF THE NAME. IF YOU ALL ARE GOING TO GANGTACKLE MY WIFE FOR HER WEEKLY "I WORRY THAT OUR DAUGHTER WON'T BE SPEAKING FLUENT SHANGAAN AND MEDIEVAL ITALIAN BY THE TIME SHE IS FIVE" THEN AT LEAST SPELL MY DAUGHTER'S NAME RIGHT!!!!!!!!!!
dw, there's no need to shout. While the conversation may have been tense and uncomfortable, it was in no way a gangtackle.

Pop Tarts as Breakfast, Lunch, and Pre-Dinner snack are why we stopped buying them two weeks ago. But, dude! Big Lots and Grocery Outlet had huge boxes of them! If you skip the toaster step, they're instafood!
IOW, it beats the handful of chocolate chips I deemed lunchworthy.

Oh, wow! Just went to fill my new asthma medication, and MassHealth ACTUALLY PAID FOR IT! YAYAYAYAYAYAYAYAY!

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
it beats the handful of chocolate chips I deemed lunchworthy.
That's bad. You at least have to have multiple food groups -- like, say, Cheetos from the machine (salty snax group), Candy from the bag that was supposed to be for the students and I wasn't gonna have any (sweet snax group), Last few Altoids in the tin (minty-fresh group).

Swahili? I thought we wanted her to work on Aramaic and Koine Greek
KOINE??
KOINE???????
THERE WILL ONLY BE ATTIC AND IONIAN GREEK SPOKEN IN OUR HOUSE, WOMAN! HOW DARE YOU SUGGEST SHE STOOP SO LOW AS TO SPEAK KOINE! I BET YOU WANT HER LEARNING VULGAR LATIN, TOO!!!!!
I'm trying to decide what to do tonight.
SINCE I'M JUST IN THIS CAPSLOCK DICTATOR MODE I WILL SHAME YOU FOR EVEN THINKING THAT STARSKY AND HUTCH IS AN EQUAL TO A BATTLE BETWEEN TWO ORIGINAL SIX TEAMS WITH WINNING RECORDS. THE RANGERS HAVE CHUNKS OF STARSKY AND HUTCH IN THEIR STOOL. THE CANADIENS DO TOO, BUT I DON'T KNOW THE FRENCH WORD FOR "CHUNKS" OR "STOOL."
