A while back I had to give drops and pills to one of my cats, for two weeks straight. At about the 10th day, Ozzie decided he had had enough.
He moved to bite me, then remembered that wasn't allowed.
He moved to scratch me, then remembered that wasn't allowed.
Damn cat bitchslapped me, putting all of his 22 pounds behind it.
Red Bull out the nose is not a pleasant feeling.
Thomash: As I understand it, there is supposedly a Springfield in every state. Can anyone confirm that?
DX: Nope. No Springfield in Rhode Island.

In the Minearverse:
Cashmere:
I love saying Ypsilanti out loud.
shrift:
And isn't it the Ypsilanti water tower that looks like a giant penis?
Cashmere:
How do I have relatives there and NOT know about the penis???
Aimee:
Your current state would say otherwise, Cash.
Cashmere:
Hee. This is true. Everytime I go into a bar and the server asks me if I want a drink I say, "That's what got me into this in the first place." I never get tired of it.
Susan W. in Great Write, on the effects of enforced bedrest due to late pregnancy on her get-up-and-go:
Basically, I've just turned into a remarkably lazy woman--it's like I quit being driven cold turkey.
MiracleMan in Natter
I went through the desert on a horse with no name
It felt good to get out from the rain.
Actually...the horse was named "Irwin", but he would bite
And kick when I called him that and I didn't want to
Be bitten and kicked. But one day I was really thirsty
And there wasn't any frickin' rain so I
Killed Irwin and drank his blood and made horse-meat steaks.
Or something.
DX in The Minearverse (or should we just rename it Natter?):

Sue, the 'Unknown Buffista' was Thomash.
Matt the Bruins fan, explaining about board in-speak "Bob Likes Carrots":
Right, it has applications other than spousal. For example, [Rant-inducing co-worker's daughter] likes carrots, because she cannot say two sentences in a conversation that's not strictly about work details without relating whatever the subject is back to her daughter.
I'm tempted to scour the news for articles about bestiality convictions to spark a conversation and see just how pronounced this effect is.
Hec: What do we call Ohio cities with unfortunate germanic tendencies?
Teppy: Der Zinzinnati, baby. We gots the best of the wurst.
Thanks Nilly!
