Why? It's new, and you apparently like those fancy newfangled things, hmm??
Pretty sure my second sentence explained my position. I feel no need to maintain consistency vis-a-vis old vs. new fangledness. Or, as autocorrect woold like me to say, fang lewdness.
Although, in my head, the "pike" referred to is the fish. No, I dont know how that works, but that's my association. "Thing", of course, can be anything, including a thought. Put that in your pipe and smoke it.
Tep, I don't know how I feel about Dora and Tai, but I'm probably more for than against. They've been flirting for forever, and I kind of like Marten without a love interest (although that can't last, can it?).
fang lewdness
This is the entire definition of
True Blood,
I'm pretty sure.
- t, ignore ita. She's trying to fence us in. But she cannot. We are like Honey Badger, we don't give a shit.

Hey now (hey now now), I haven't worn my fangs since last week.
Give me land, lots of land, under starry skies above...

I suppose "another thought coming" is out of the question.
I'm agnostic on pipe/pike. Either one would make sense to me if someone said it.
Down the pole is right out, unless you're referring to a stripper or a fireman.
Thing & Pike! 4evah!
Yep.
First day at the new job. There's going to be a whole lot of me making up tasks for myself. What's a good resource for a Mac person to figure out how to deal a PC/Outlook/etc?
Hubby has a zombie back, though it was officially described as "donor bone."
And I grew up near the Pennsylvania Turnpike, so "Down the pike" makes sense.
I'm honestly surprised at the recentness of the uptick on "down the pike," because that seems a very oldfashioned usage.
My god, I can't believe how many of you are wrong about "another think". I really thought this would be a bastion of sanity in the imbroglio of wrongness that is the Internet.
ita ! is me! I am SHOCKED and APPALLED at the wrongness of so many of you. Repent!
Think is clearly right. "Another thing coming" doesn't even make sense unless you're waiting for the mailman! I am less strongly affected by the pike/pipe ambivalence, therefore either is acceptable.
Shocked, I say.
