  1. I can think of a few exceptions to this rule.
  2. For the record: yes, Berryman was hammered in this recording.
  3. Amazon Prime has "taking away rights one terms and conditions clause at a time" and nobody knows what the hell Crackle has but the noises coming from its basement are concerning.
  4. Not the fucking bampersand!
  5. Fuck yes
  6. Here's a video of John Berryman reading Dream Song 29, which was specifically chosen because, like Dream Song 29, I seldom have any idea what anybody is talking about in Free-For-All.
  7. Spelling isn't grammar. Neither is punctuation, really. Those are mechanics. Grammar refers commonly to the structure of language (which is actually frequently changing because, well, language changes), and how they relate. So typically it's stuff like syntax and morphology, and sometimes semantics and phonology. So things like SVO, OVS, SOV, VOS, and VSO (Subject, Verb, Object and its variations), and what sounds come together to create singular meanings, is grammar.
  8. Other times it simply makes things not sentences. But yours is certainly the former. <3
  9. I'm not sure if you meant to include a comma after wing, but I am quoting it in my signature as I initially read it.
  10. They asked to let that be known.
  11. Aren't the two first sentences in the subject, "Don't say bold things," and "don't try to be bold," rather bold themselves, given the strict tone of imperative phrasing?
  12. If I moved back in with my parents I'd still be a bedroom dweller, which is surely the aristocracy of these groups of people. So, they'd probably be the ones to start the war, send their respective basement or attic dwellers, and be affected by none of it. Attic dwellers for sure. They have to know how to be silent. Basement dwellers walk around on concrete and don't give a goddamn.
  13. 3 Brothers One of them is pretty much my best friend of the three, and my favorite person to talk about books with. I refer to him as Ivan. The other is a bit of a rebel and a troublemaker, so I refer to him as Dmitri. One of them is sort of just a shithead, so he's Smerdyakov. And yes, in this way of talking about my brothers, I am the Alyosha of these goddamned Karamazovs.
  14. Get yourself some normal credit and a real job!
  15. Gotta be real gentle though, else they bite, or kick.
  16. Only got igneous here.
  17. Here's your rifle, here's your coffee, and here's your gloves for disposing of the corpses.
  18. The beasts might. To be honest I've never asked, and the goats are always whispering unholy things in my ear at night while I sleep, but horse whispering was never my strongest suit in the many responsibilities of farming, so I can't go speaking neither ill nor highly of their social inclusiveness.
  19. You can be black, white, christian, jewish, pagan, genderfluid, bisexual and whatever else have you. It takes all types to farm and to farm good.
  20. You better. If you want to be considered for any of FFA's leadership roles, at least one year of playing Stardew Valley is a mandatory part of qualification.
  21. My friend's second child was named Noah, after a strangely long battle with the husband to not name him Maximus, or many of his other suggestions based off Russell Crowe characters. She wasn't pleased when I informed her Crowe played Noah in Aronofsky's film, but at least it was a normal name. It is a great name though.
  22. Feel free to discuss Future Farmers of America and farming matters, such as coyote patrol, harvesting, sheep shearing, basic combine maintenance, artificial insemination, absurd debt-to-asset ratios, the rumored return of the Rocky Mountain Locust, and the social politics of naming or not naming your kids after obscure folks in the Old Testament.
