Yikes!

Hoping that things stabilize quickly, and heal up well.

BTW, "walk on it as I could stand the pain" probably does not include wind-sprints or cartwheels, prior experience notwithstanding

I'm most curious about Tina's future. Between the comment she dropped about being "one of the five winged beings who...", and her growth towards becoming a fully-integrated single entity "Tina 3.0" rather than a coven on individual demons, there's a lot of potential story-telling...

Whew! As bad problems go... that one apparently wasn't!

Glad it turned out to be a nothingburger!

Oh, that's not good at all. Terribly sorry to hear you've been burned! In cases of identity theft, you should: - Report it as fraud to the financial company involved, and get as much information as you can from them about what happened. - Make a police report, and get a report number from them. - Re...

Anthropologists generally seem to agree that the development of human language was probably spurred by the need to communicate effectively while hunting and gathering. There are those who suspect that the second reason our ancestors learned to speak, was so that they could tell dirty stories and jok...

Unless they shoot first (here insert reference to "Support our right to arm bears" poster)

Opus the Poet wrote: ↑Fri Nov 22, 2024 10:52 pm Is that like polar and nonpolar solvents?

Yes, pretty much. You can tell the difference by the fur.

• Polar bear fur is wet.
• Non-polar bear fur is oily or greasy.

Best of fortune to you, Greg... may it go well, smoothly and easily.

And don't run over any polar bears on the way there or back. In fact, avoid the nonpolar bears as well.

Sarge for the win!

???... how does one stuff a seven-syllable word into a limerick?!? "Grylloideaphobia" troubles our good Sgt. Howard, who bubbles with frustrated rage that this limerick page doesn't yet have his great rhyming couples. (Yes, I'm fully aware that I'm waving a red cloth in front of Gilgamesh...

It's a homage to the master: https://phobia.fandom.com/wiki/Anatidaephobia I'd say that a limerick is called for (and certainly welcome) although there probably is someone, somewhere, who does actually find the sound of crickets to be deeply disturbing. We're an odd species. Those who have truly res...

Grylloideaphobia.

Many of the forum participants have a deep, unsettling fear of the sound of crickets.

Since that's most of what we've been hearing here (and on the main Wapsi site), they've taken cover.

For an ice giant... Sarge should have loaned out his good ones. No way that brass knuckles were going to survive.

When you want the "best defense", only mithril knuckles will do.

Oh, man... I'm terribly sorry to hear about all of this.

"Entropy has us outnumbered"... but the fact that it's inevitable still sucks.

Hoping for improvement in both of your situations!

Kath and family will be concerned... although as far as I can tell, the Minneapolis location is still open during the reorganization.

Ow ow owww! So sorry to hear that. I had no idea that the herd of invisible brontosauri were anywhere near your location

Do get better soon!

One hopes that the cookbook shelf at the grocery does not include "To Serve Man".

This story is also reminding me of an old Sidney Poitier movie... If that's the movie I'm thinking of, it was a real lulu of a tale... ... and it contained a lesson I really should have learned then: never trust an English cook with a jar of mayonnaise.

There are some interesting potentials . . . I love the stapler trick! --FreeFlier THAT was based on an actual event that happened in an inner-city school where the 'rowdy class' was handed to an ex-marine who had an injury put him in a short spica cast. It was too good to ignore. This wonderful inc...
