I like books. I just don't want to take on too much. Do they have an introduction to the modern blurb?

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Note to self: when farming, do not take Jesse's advice.

Good call.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

So I got the haircut. I can't tell yet if I like it or not, I am going to head to the bathroom soon to take a better look. At least the back is short enough. It was a much faster cut than I normally get and she did not do some things that people usually do, so I do not feel great, but it seem to look ok. It was double what I paid for my last cut, but that was a hack job. I hate finding a new hair person.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

I am painting my living room this weekend! Which means I canput up my new curtains and unpack the living room decorations on Sunday!

That probably is the next step after you make a bong out of a skull...

Or you can the donx-plow to help dig up the skull.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

Or you can the donx-plow to help did up the skull.

Dude, you gotta give me some of whatever you've been skull-smoking.

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"

Accepted practice in the ox-plowing community is that you hitch the smaller, smarter ox on your near side so he can help cue his bigger, dumber buddy on what is desired. So the donkey partner could also be employed this way, though if the ox decides that it's time to go back to the barn, I think the donkey pretty much has to go along.

Only here would someone be able to answer like this...

(There's a near and far side?)

"In the equation E = mc⬧, c⬧ is a pretty big honking number." - Scola

Is the smaller ox ALWAYS smarter, or is this just the kind of sizeist propaganda that's divided the ox community for so long?

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Check this out: Unequally Yoked Marriages

We must approach the subject of the unequally yoked marriage from two perspectives. First, we will deal with the Christian who is considering marrying an unbeliever. Second, we will discuss the Christian who is already married to an unbeliever.

What is an Unequally-Yoked Marriage?

In 2 Cor. 6:14 we are told not to be unequally yoked together with unbelievers. This verse is more clearly understood in light of Deut. 22:10 where it commands to not plow with an ox and a donkey yoked together. Why?

The ox and the donkey are two different kinds of animals.
Because of their different leg lengths, the ox and the donkey walk differently with their strides and paces.
The ox is much stronger than the donkey.
The ox and donkey think, act, and work differently.
The donkey eats a certain weed that makes the ox nauseous if it eats it.
The unequal yoke causes the animals to get wounds where the yoke rubs them wrongly.
The unequal yoke makes the furrow crooked rather than straight, causing the plowman to work extra hard to keep the plow and animals in line.
The apostle Paul uses this example to illustrate why a Christian should not be unequally yoked together with a non-Christian. Why?
