Craigslist Lost & Found: Suitcase with $78,383 inside
Oh thank goodness - I've been looking everywhere for that!
Gunn: The final score can't be rigged. I don't care how many players you grease, that last shot always comes up a question mark. But here's the thing. You never know when you're taking it. It could be when you're duking it out with the Legion of Doom, or just crossing the street deciding where to have brunch. So you just treat it like it was up to you—the world in balance—'cause you never know when it is.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
∑ - sum, sum, sum, sum, SUM.
Haters.

It's interesting, because in Hebrew, the word for "sum" (as in the Inigo way, in a verb) also has the meaning of "add", on top of the Inigo-meaning, and just like in English, it's allowed to be used in the "We summed 2 and 2 to get 4", but is not the common word for that sentence. Huh.

Because books.
My least favorite misuse (imo) of a word is in the smoking cessation ads. "You'll be quit in a month" or whatever. No, you "will have quit." It's a verb, people.

Our wings are not tired.
"I can't quit you."

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
I just signed up for sailing lessons. They start next week on Saturday. Yay!
It's all part of the plan for Buffista world-domination. My part will be to set up the Buffista Navy.

I haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."
My newest pet peeve (I sure go through a lot of these in the course of a day): people telling me how to do my job. I know how to do it! That's why it's my job!

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

I'm pretty sure they put it that way for a reason. I.e., they can't claim you will be anything more than currently not smoking. Every time I hear that commercial I hear hours of FDA/company counsel negotiation.

Feel better Java. I know K-Bug will be bummed to miss you.
I'm working at home today and baking during my breaks. The cake recipe I have required a 1/2 cup of coffee. I have not coffee in the house, so I had to go to Panera. While I was there I grabbed a sandwich, which I totally forgot to eat. Must nom now.
