For me, that would be popsicle sticks, the paper that is wrapped around crayons, and construction paper (the stuff thats kind've ruff and grainy)-- my kindergarten teacher had a difficult time getting me to participate in arts and crafts because i would refuse to touch a lot of the materials that she would make us use xD

The journalist predictably asked, "How did you like Australia?" and instead of platitudes he provoked a meltdown. "I hated it. I hated every minute of it. Whenever I tried to get something done I was told, 'She'll be right, mate!' Well it WON'T be right. I'm going home to have a nervous breakdown."What have you notice about your own work ethic and that of your community? Would you identify with the businessman or with the locals? less

She had really asked him, "How much is it?" but enunciated it so badly that he thought she was giving her name. As a result he wrote a book called "Let Stalk Strine" (Let's talk Australian) and used the pen name Afferbeck Lauder (alphabetical order).How does language get mangled where YOU live? Want to share some examples?

Flame Warriors are a bigger problem and can wreak havoc on a site. A very clever guy named Mike Reed (artist? cartoonist? writer?) put up a site featuring an alphabetical list of flame Warriors beginning with Acne (who constantly whines about how, like, his life really sucks) and ending with Yuk Yuk (who likes to share weak jokes). Take a look at the list (click on Flame Warrior Roster) at this link: http://www.flamewarriorsguide.com/index.htm and share your favourites with us. Or, if you prefer, invent some of your own. (Be kind.)

They STILL HAVE NOTHING and they realize if they take away the AHCA before they have a "better and cheaper" (TRUMP PROMISE) replacement they will never win another election again! No one will trust them. No will believe them! They will be TOAST. Burned toast! :)
It originated in the 18 century B.C. Code of Hammurabi! Multiple CENTURIES before the Bible was written! It does show up in the Bible but it is not advocated.
