You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

I think I'd make really good bacon. You should massage me first, to get good marbling if you want steaks.

You are clearly in dire need of a massage if you're willing to pay for it in cannibalism.

I am the fly who dreams of the spider

I get to feel good and then not have to pay my bills. Win/win.

hivemined, especially British and American spellers: orientated?

That's what I want to spell, and then force myself to spell "oriented" instead, but I don't like it. That latter feels too much like "I showed them whites how to be sinophiles!".

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

I remember in Alive they ate livers because they were nutritious. Maybe easier to chew too.

That which does not kill you should RUN

orientated?

Nope nope nope.

t edit My understanding is that it's a back-formation that gets used so often that it's in common use. But I still don't think it's any more correct than "conversate."

We host a server, msbelle. And my kids play on some kid-safe public servers, too. I'll email you the details.

CJ plays, msbelle. He doesn't normally play multi-player though. He said some of the multi-player servers aren't well moderated. How old is he again?
