For what it's worth, my computer's spellchecker says publically is wrong.
Spike's Bitches 34: They're All Slime and Antlers
[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.
When I was in college, people kept snitching the ls from the sign on the Office of Public Information. Very upsetting for the lady in the office.
So, once upon a time publicans took our money and now they serve us beer? What a wonderful transformation.
I think I broke my brain trying to sing "The Lees of Virginia" and getting it confused with the "Sister Mary..." song from Nunsense.
Sometimes anything ending in ly will make me sing that song. Much like anything ending in menon will start a bout of "Mah-nah-mah-nah"
Eeee! I have new pictures of Beau! They're from Mardi Gras! Beau in a tiara! I'm going to have to go home from work ded today!
Will upload and share when I get home.
Word of the day:
This week's theme: There is a word for it.
omphaloskepsis (om-fuh-lo-SKEP-sis) noun
Contemplation of one's navel.
"Readers whose main interest is literary how-to or criticism can look elsewhere, in places specifically dedicated to those matters. Doing too much of it here would smack of omphaloskepsis."
Stanley Schmidt; About Science Fiction; Analog Science Fiction & Fact (New York); Jun 2001.
Doing too much of it here would smack of omphaloskepsis
Fuckin' omphaloskepsis hatas!
I recently switched from "pubically" to "publicly" because my students' dictionaries all spelled it the latter way. It bugs the heck out of me, but I'm trying to get used to it.
Timelies all. I'm up and have brewed coffee (though have not yet consumed said coffee) and am about to being Day One of the Great Grading Caper. (I'm trying to make it sound like a Muppet movie so that there's the possibility of unexpected hijinks or bears in Studebakers.)
I'm omphaloskepsizing right now AIFG!
t /lunch is over, runs away
I hope vw & Nora are having a nice lunch. I want to hug them both, but will have to be satisfied with them hugging each other.
