  1. Good butchers always clean up after themselves. Be sure to stock up on bleach.
  2. It's a know fact that all the photographers know the legend of Don Juan de San Diego. That's why they only bring their 400mm telephoto lens and Night Sun for a flash to his photo shoots.
  3. How could anyone take a report about janitors that inexplicably involves "germ theory" (whatever the hell that is) and creating a draft serious? Well, "caustic soda" would, but anyone else....
  4. Yes, you do lose your ability to speak a language when you don't use it regularly, but you also don't learn a language in a classroom (or a language lab... hated that lab). The thing your story doesn't describe is the process your grandmother used to switch between English, Polish, and Russian. The likelihood is that she would be able to speak Russian again if it was ever a necessity because she had learned early how to compartmentalize.
  5. You probably won't ever speak Mandarin either. Not that Zeni can actually speak any other language, but learning different languages is a valuable exercise in its own right. Learning different languages, even Danish, is valuable in understanding modern English both by comparing the languages to common roots and also in seeing how each language evolves (it's one of the reasons why a word's etymology is more important than its definition). Learning languages with different root structures also is a valuable exercise in learning the ways with which we process spoken and written word and can be immensely valuable to artists like songwriters, poets/prose writers, and even musicians. Additionally, learning any language can be a gateway to learning multiple other languages.
  6. What’s a metronome?
  7. Watcha doin in our fine state?
  8. Packard warned us about his type.
  9. They don't on my phone.
  10. Happy Birthday!
  11. Whatever happened to the Million Plumber March?
  12. *sigh* It's sad that I'm happy with any effort at this point.
  13. Westpark never ever said "too bad." He found a way. Well, not that last time. How'd you get him?
  14. So... are you supposed to be Westpark or Nabs pretending to be Westpark?
  15. They're supposed to be memes, not logic puzzles.
  16. Why is Doomy disappointed by this?
  17. Everyone knows her name now.
  18. I have no idea why she's still here, but it's probably because she disowned you sometime in '80s.
  19. You are so full of shit.
