Suzi, my sister never had fleas in Boulder because of the altitude, or that was her belief as to why. As soon as she moved away all her pets immediately got infested, so there was something it.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

"It didn't taste good. It tasted soooo horrible. It tasted like....a vodka martini." - Matilda
It is wrong to use the superlative when you only have two items. It is more wrong to nitpick conversational writing.

Ah, thank you, Ginger. And, I know, right? Seriously, sis!!

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger
I was just going to say what Ginger did; two things, older. More than 2, oldest. Sorry!
Point up to Ginger's post re: nitpicking. What she said.
But...esp. when that conversation is a reply to a wedding invite. That's wrongest, er...wrong like a wrong thing.

Yeah, yeah, P-C. It's late, dude. Cut me a break. Let me change it to: I don't care.

Trust my rage
I have no idea what the real reason is for the lack of fleas but I have always thought it was the dryness of the climate. But I dont really know

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
Let me change it to: I don't care.
Or, you know, the rules of grammar and logic do not apply to idiomatic phrases. That's what makes them idiomatic.
(Which is to say, "could care less" is a perfectly cromulent saying.)

Our wings are not tired.
I think there's something to that, -t. From what I understand they're also not a problem in Albuquerque? Don't know if that's altidude or roasted chile peppers though.
