I say "neesh". But I also say "foi-yer".
Angel: Will you just shut up for once?! Illyria: What? Angel: My God, the speechifying. Has it ever occurred to you that now might not be the best time for when-we-were-muck stories?

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
There's something on Craigslist that I want. I could find the money for it, but I don't have the space. Even if I had less stuff, I wouldn't have the space; my rooms have too many windows and closets (not really a complaint) and not enough free floor space. I think modern houses are designed for IKEA furniture, and the houses I'm used to are designed for wardrobes and huge tables and solid-wood furniture.

Wait, am I secretly Canadian? That's how I pronounce foyer and niche!
Zen, I have heard that about some banks. Suckage.
I've been in this apartment for several years with no ants. Why now? Damn twitter.
Your twitter brings all the ants to the yard?

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."
Beau and I are going to start packing on Friday.
He said, "What about The Avengers?" And I said, "oh, we are going to see the movie too that day."
He said, "it is symbolical!"
I replied, "of what? Which of the Avengers would help us pack? Not hulk, right? He'd be a great mover, but probably not a great packer."
Which of the avengers would be a great packer, I wonder?

I look more rad than Lutheranism
Which of the avengers would be a great packer, I wonder?
Cap. Because of the military training.
Thor would just shove dirty clothes in a duffel bag.
Tony would just buy new stuff when he got where he was going.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Which of the avengers would be a great packer, I wonder?
Iron Man.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
Hulk because he could just SMASH everything into one big box.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
Which of the avengers would be a great packer, I wonder?
He's not in the movie, just the comics, but Ant-Man has a shrink ray.

I always thought it was pronounced "neesh" so I guess my theory that I'm crypto-Canuck isn't entirely without basis.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
Cap would box up everything small and light, Hulk would throw all the items one by one across town to the new place, Thor would catch them, and Tony would use his engineering genius to fit them all into the new space. Natasha and Green Arrow would make out, because there was nothing else to do.
