totally thing cute thing house.

"Have a think" is a perfectly cromulent UK turn of phrase. Like "have a drink" or "have a wank."

you are still very cute, wrongheadedly cute.

Uh huh. And Jesus hit his head on an eggcorn while riding a dinosaur. Look, I say "I'm-unna go to the store" but I know that what I'm really saying is "I'm going to the store." It's phonetics, yo.

And Hec, don't even front like you are always a populist descriptivist, or I will rehash an old semantic argument and we will ALL REGRET IT.

I've got the OED, Cosby, Word Detective, and books since the 19th century on my side. Y'all have Rob Halford and many people on the internet who also probably say "LOLOLOL" with no trace of irony.

(I'm not really this het up. But I am really going to bed. Swears.)

Kate! House! How fabulous!

I don't know who Halford is, and I don't' care if you tell me, I will still not know.

Hec, feel free to ignore fleas ngram research--I however, do recognise relative authority, and also PEOPLE WHO MADE A MISTAKE THEY REFUSE TO CORRECT. That's not actually a good reason for anything much beyond "apron". I mean, there's still time to get back on course--you don't have to go down with the ship--you can be saved. COME WITH ME IF YOU WANT TO LIVE.

Huh. For some reason that Rolo ad made me think of foreskins. I don't know if that's on me or that's on them.

Adorable, house Kate. I have severe house envy.

I was at an advisory board meeting for the writing project (yay!) and I got a phone call from my dentist's office seeing if I could come in tomorrow at 10:10.

Um. No. I realize I need two more cleaning visits, but just no. Plus I have an ob-gyn appointment. I told J, the woman who does the scheduling that I would rather go see the gynecologist than have my teeth cleaned (true fact, my OB saved my life!)

But my dentist IS coming to my birthday party....

Anyhow, this is the week of unpleasant appointments.

I just realized birthday party is in about a week. What am I thinking? Then again, it will be a smallish affair with lots of white and black (red drinks though!).

I echo smonster and ita ! above.

MONDEGREEEEEEEEEEEEEEN

Skuse me while I kiss this guy. There's a bathroom on the right. Bomb Iran.

Oh, hey, full moon. Pretty.

It's not a play on words; it's a threat! Threats have way more teeth when they're grammatical!

What? It's way more of a threat the wrong way.

Also, why are we still talking about this? Oh right, because there's no rest for the wearywicked.

women still get wooly, right?

Cilantro! CILANTRO!!1!

Think is amusing, I just never heard it before today.

Because he’s Rob Fucking Halford, that’s why.
