Walking I get. But power walking? Why not just run for a shorter time?

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

My issue with the mall hair is NOT the bigness, it's the untamed frizziness of it all. Plus the hand cropped t-shirts. That never was going to be a good look.

Now tagless for your comfort.

They really need to work with Ben Browder on something.

Ben Browder's brother is a Busch Series stock car racer. They sooooo need to call him!!!

Well, as a faux-Canadian you are a colonial.

Yeah, but things that seem normal to a person don't register as not the usual way until someone points it out. Like, when Nutty complained about how the way Fillion said borrow all Canadian-like in Firefly threw her out of the moment, I was hella confused, because again, that's how the word's SAID, right?

So I made other people say it, and realized that, no. Americans say it WEIRD, like burrow (there is an O in it, people), and I hadn't noticed before, and then I was really self-conscious about saying the word for a while.

ita, it was a printed E that was all curved like a cursive E, rather than blocky like the E on a typewriter. My E is always curvy, printed or cursive. I will note that this probably stems from a lifetime of forging my mother's sig when required (sometimes with her permission), as her name is Esther.

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe

"We are the Goon Squad and we're coming to town...Beep! Beep!" - David Bowie, "Fashion"

I thought it was that I can't describe

It might be, but I could have sworn there was an "I just can't abide" in there somewhere. To the Googlemobile!

eta, nope, no abide line at all. Huh.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

Simon and Nick did Top Gear and were hilarious.

"He sprayed me with his nerd musk and I was in love"!

borrow = BAH-row. How did Nathan say it?

Because books.

I don't think I've ever heard anyone pronounce borrow as "burrow".

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."

That should go on Good Things!

How did Nathan say it?

Bore-ow My grandmother used to pronounce it barrah.

Canadians say more like Daisy said--BOAR-O.
