Hey, at least Obama can find Australia on a map....
Let him do his thing, and then you get him out. No messing with him for laughs.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

Hmm. To play fair, I suppose I should practise finding Obama on a map.

Lurching from one disaster to the next.
On a per capita basis, America's commitment of troops is something like six times that of Australia.
Maths has never been my strong point but I do believe I'm getting stupider as I get older.

"Fuck Western ideologically-motivated gender identification!" Sulu gasped, and came.
Holy crap. This is just boggling my mind.
(And I'm trying to find the SMG photo that her image reminds me of - I'm thinking it's a season 2 or possibly 3 photoshoot, although it could be season 1...)

move out and draw fire
Fay, I have to say I wouldn't want her teaching my kids. And it's not because she writes vampire erotica (that, in fact, is a plus)...
The site reads: "Like all good author's she drew on her own knowledge and passions to write it."
um...

Woe to the fucking wicked.
There was something left on the printer here, written by the Kinder teacher to be sent home to parents.
It was about that bad.

Yes, I spotted that too, and had the same reaction. (I'm sort of intense about Saving The Apostrophe - to the point that, I DO fumble in my bag for a pen when I encounter them being abused in books, magazines and menus. In the fullness of time I know I'm going to buy a ladder and a pot of red paint and become an Apostrophe Vigilante...)
Since the site itself wasn't actually available to view, I decided to give the woman the benefit of the doubt and assume that the newspaper couldn't punctuate. But...yeah.

I think Freddy Quimby should walk out of here a free hotel
I scanned directly over the apostraphe about six times and thought the wincing was at the dorkiness of the sentence. Did ye people, like, go to school?
