"Jesse Terrill has reason to be angry. His mother has abandoned him, his brother was murdered by a terrorist, and his father is in the state mental hospital—a victim of a muggle’s mugger's assault..."

From the Smacks Forehead thread:

I read Donna's sentence,

"What really astonishes me is when there are stains that don't appear to look like any of the ingredients he has used."

...as

"...don't appear to look like any of the detergents he has used."

This made me wonder why detergents would leave a stain, and if so, how each would leave a different one that you could tell which brand of detergent he was using. (He doesn't make you do all the laundy, does he, Donna?)

Then of course I remembered that fabric softener can leave stains on clothing as it's ruined most of my work shirts. (Apparently we're supposed to wait for water to be in the washing machine before adding laundry detergent or fabric softener...Who has the patience for that.)

116lefty33
Jan 8, 2009, 8:45 am

K, or you can turn on the washer, add the stuff, then add the clothes. Then at least it is mostly dissolved instead of putting it right on top of dry clothes. I don't wait for the washer to fill, but putting the detergents into the water and not onto the clothes does help. ;)

I have not given up caffine, unfortunately I'm far to deep in my addiction to be able to give that up without some severe withdrawl issues. But Coffee is my favorite source of my caffine intake. Coffee in the morning, coffee after lunch and usually a cappacino with dinner dessert. and when i have ice cream i like to sprinkle some coffee grounds on top of it. So all that is gone plus coffee flavored things.

I thought that was an interesting thing to call your sister!

Well she does spend a lot of time in thrift shops!
And I do feel a sisterly love for secondhand stores... :o)

#361 Mandy, LOL! That is great! My brother was reading over my shoulder, he thought it hilarious too. Does make one wonder how many people proofed it incorrectly.

That reminded me of a Japanese restaurant in town -- one where they make the food right in front of you when you order. They have a big banner that says "We grill front of your eyes!"

I was over at Green Dragon and misread "What Smurf are You?" as "What the Smurf are You?"

Which has a completely different feel.

And in case you are wondering, I am Clumsy Smurf.

So as one may tell, I was in chat for the movie tonight. ;)

Another misread.

What jp said:

Good News: Crocuses (crocusi?) are popping up in the yard.

What I read:

Couscous is popping up in the yard.

Which then made me think of llamas. I should explain, one of my sisters named her llama that. (Our aunt kept at her place. She had a pasture.)

In GN/BN Foggi said she had no more meetings today, which was good news. I thought she said she had no more feelings today. What a bad day it must be to be happy not to have feelings!

Thank goodness it didn't say that! We would have to kidnap Foggi and take her on a happy trip. However, it would be fun to kidnap foggi all the same.

Do you have the pretty pastel ones? I was thinking about getting streamers. I want to make sure they match.

386Kerian
Mar 16, 2009, 1:17 pm

But of course! They're so much better than boring white marshmallows. (I've never had one. Do they taste the same?)

Marshmallows. Check.
Streamers. Check.
Fun confetti. *packs that into kirby's car* Check.

Do you think we should kidnap Sophie, too? She can play with Finnegan and Kirby, or even Gregor as well if compski comes and brings him.

387kirbyowns
Mar 16, 2009, 2:08 pm

Oh! They boys would enjoy that. Let's do it!

(The pastel marshmallows have a slight different taste to them. It depends on what brand you get.)

But Mrs. Espy is not feeling well and couldn't come too, and I'd feel bad about just leaving her.

One of my friends on facebook had her status as "me n cameron one month!"
but I read it as "me n cameron one mouth"

I was a little disgusted when I first read it.

K told foggi: "maybe clearing your head will help"

I read "maybe cleaning your head will help"

A variety of questions then ran through my head: Does K want foggi to scrub her brain? Clean the heads of her VHS player? Maybe just take a shower? That's kind of rude...although taking a shower does clear my head sometimes...

MrA asked Kerian:

Can I borrow your accent?

Which I thought was pretty strange, since K doesn't have an accent. :o)

401jugglingpaynes
Edited: Mar 18, 2009, 10:34 am

Linguistically speaking, an accent is a manner of pronunciation of a language. If the pronunciation is different from the "norm" or hard to understand, that would probably give evidence of an accent. I can understand what I say, therefore I must not have an accent for my native language.
Of course, I can also understand both you and MrA.
Does this mean none of us have accents? :o)

Contrariwise, does that mean my younger children have accents since I have a hard time understanding them?

402Mandy2
Edited: Mar 18, 2009, 10:46 am

So since I can never understand MrA. does that mean that he has an accent only when I hear him?

Hmmm...Maybe you aren't crazy enough Mandy. Although if you can hear him...

How long have you been hearing MrA's voice in your head?
