My infallible intuition.

If you said you were going to Memphis, 100% of people would assume you meant Memphis Tennessee.
April 15, 2023 at 06:54
It's always funny to me to see this name in it's proper Spanish context, because there's a city in Ohio, where I'm from, called Toledo. It's not a gre...

The reading comprehension of a 3rd grader. I'm not chortling; everyone else is, and now they're chortling even harder. Hard chortles. I'm done here. W...

A classic resort to senseless ad hominems that make you feel like a big strong man, while everyone reading is chortling. I'm done here.

Dinner: two frozen burritos (not from Mercadona :groan: ) because I've been partying too hard and now I'm broke. :grimace:

Quitting three times without actually quitting doesn't work if you keep doing it. I'm done here.
April 15, 2023 at 05:55
Keep coping. I'm done here.

You're so behind. I'm sick.

Also, in context, I'm quoting a mid-sentence phrase, in which case the lowercase is justified. Check mate, atheists.
April 15, 2023 at 05:45
no; I sometimes begin sentences with lowercase letters to signify that what I'm saying is fairly insignificant; in this case, it's insignificant becau...

Yes - well.

I've already inferred that I'm rat-sympathetic. I can imagine a pet rat craving the same love any other pet might. I'm a new age dude, after all.
April 15, 2023 at 05:17
Tell me more.
April 15, 2023 at 05:13
While no one likes rats, I just let them be. If you encounter them on the street, you might sometimes here them squeal; they detest us as much as we d...

I doubt you knew that, but my mother is mostly Finnish, leaving me slightly less than half Finnish. As a typical melting pot American, it's the herita...

I sense the first sentence in a contest-winning short story.

Much better than the dreaded lutefisk is the cherished Nissua, served only at Christmas time. I have many a fond memory of the special bread.

It's impressive how distinct your literary crit voice is from your everyday voice.
April 14, 2023 at 19:16
I have no idea what this means. Is it an apartment number? A food dye? A section on a tax form? While I enjoyed the warm weather yesterday, thanks in ...

While I can't claim to have a closeness resembling your love of Japanese culture, I do have four adopted Chinese cousins, and so I do find that I have...

You would be too once you'd lived here. And so the cycle repeats. It's like a mystical truth. You can't know it until you've lived it. Until then, it'...

A sweeping statement. This city is as important or unimportant as any other, but it's the people that make this city what it is. Ask anyone who's live...

I'm starting to think Mercadona and I would become fast friends. How are these Chicken dumplings? Looks great. Ironically, the Chinatown in Manhattan ...
April 14, 2023 at 05:19
The weather was unseasonably warm today, so I ended up hopping on the NYC ferry (a must if you visit) and ended up in the Lower East Side of Manhattan...

There is something wrong with you because you're still talking about skin.
April 13, 2023 at 04:25
And suddenly the square pics are rounded. There is ballast to this weighty world.
April 13, 2023 at 03:52
Woah. I like your enthusiasm but that's a bit much for my depressed brain. The chicken sandwich was indeed delivered to my doorstep, and I did indeed ...
April 13, 2023 at 03:50
These profile pics are rather too square, no? Hard lines feel too philosophical. We need some soft lines to add whimsy and ballast.
April 13, 2023 at 02:38
Uh...I have a chicken sandwich on order... to be delivered...hopefully I'll still have an appetite when it arrives...
April 13, 2023 at 02:34
I'm not sure if something was lost in translation, but I was remarking that the broccoli rabe shrank, meaning it got a lot smaller in size after being...
April 11, 2023 at 05:36
This was my first time cooking broccoli rabe, and it turned out quite well indeed. They shrank a lot, though, so i probably could have bought more for...

Yum. Dinner: Homemade chicken picata over orzo seasoned with butter and pasta water, with broccoli rabe and white beans cooked with pancetta on the si...

Yes, that’s the most incredible part. I won’t soon forget this, Clarky. You’ve made my entire year. I was planning on never writing a short story ever...

Beautiful. This analysis is all I could have hoped for and more. Thank you for taking so much time and effort out of your day to thoughtfully respond....

To celebrate her new bob cut, Bobbi ate babka and drank vodka. Thank you. Now please analyze my profound and complex micro story.

Actually, I quite like my sneeze sonata.
April 10, 2023 at 04:43
I'm listening to the EP now. It's pretty bad.
April 10, 2023 at 04:38
The EP does flow rather well, so the error is excusable. A classic, albeit typical mistake.

Yes, light does tend to allow me to sneeze. However, I think there's also a psychological aspect to sneezing. Despite knowing that light helps me to s...

Hmm, this important thread has been neglected. I'm not listening to anything at the moment, however, here's a great record I just listened to at work:...

In sneezing, I define success as when I successfully sneeze. If I need to sneeze and I sneeze, that's a success. If I need to sneeze but I can't, that...
April 10, 2023 at 03:33
My first Kefir experience was a shock. I think my sneeze success rate is about 35%. I thought this was worth sharing solely because of how enraging a ...

An incredible film. It's based off of the novel Roadside Picnic by Arkady and Boris Strugatsky. Similar Hamlet-esque character in the novel, although ...

I agree.
