It was around -27 when I left the house this morning. It is now 0. I don't know wind-chill. I put a new battery in my son's car today. Tomorrow will be up to 12, so I'll finally try the van and see if it needs a battery as well. We lost power for an hour today in a rolling blackout. We have suffered...

YES!!

Wait... Is it Kyle you're looking for?

Classic!

I love that video. The moment he hears it is priceless. But to be fair, even as the rest of his friends all say it, it's clear that they are using different vowels in each word, and I'm sure the difference is obvious to them, especially in context, but to an outsider who is unaccustomed to making th...

I think I posted this somewhere else on the boards already, but it belongs here.

Thumbs up!

"Say say".

Good evening!

I got my second shot on Friday. My reaction to it was the same as the first: tired and spacy the day after, and then just fine.

Solid!

Forgot that one too. Good song!

What if I only have one red shoe?

Never one of my favorites, but not bad.

Seth Meyers showed a clip last night as part of his Closer Look segment, and in it is a speech from Marco Rubio four and a half years ago in which he very eloquently and accurately predicts that electing Trump would be a threat to democracy and would lead to a day when people settle political disput...

Swing and a miss!

I'm in. This is a great idea.

Forgot that song existed. It's nice. Not adding it to my playlist or nothing, but I liked hearing it. Surprised I knew most of the words. Thank you, Tahlvin.

Good morning!

Can a pet peeve be an anti-pet peeve, like say double negatives are perfectly fine in speech. Intonation and context should be enough to clue you into the intent, and plus double negatives never sounded bad. Agreed. A double negative is just an intensifier. When "never" isn't strong enoug...

First rated R movie!

I saw him post elsewhere that he's glad he took a day off work. My Magic 8 Ball says, "Outlook not so good."

And good morning!

Good night!

I'm telling everyone to watch that. Very powerful. Effective to see events played out in order.

Nothing more than feelings?

So far so good

Good morning!

It's a day! A wonderful wonderful day!

The original cougar.

I didn't realize that was potentially on the menu, but I am still very glad it didn't happen.

Yeah. Much of my musical awakening started here. This was summers at the public pool with these songs blaring over the PA.

Good morning!!

Omigod. So we're in a hotel and more than a little toasted, and my wife gets a text from a wrong number saying, "sorry I couldn't make it in today, but I'll be there tomorrow... blah blah blah." So Lisa texts back and says, "YOU'RE FIRED!" But then she explains they got a wrong n...

You. Are. Welcome!

You may only post here if you are drunk. Seriously, respect the thread. If you post here and you aren't drunk, I'll be forced to delete it. But Kyle set the precedent that I can't even delete your posts unless I'M drunk too, so who knows when THAT'LL happen. I mean, seriously, I barely drink at all,...

That's awesome, Kyle! Good on you, man.

Shaping up to be amazing!

Oh yeah.

Yeah... why don't we?

We also missed posting in this thread:

Oh no! How did I miss you?

How much does proper pronunciation matter? For example, suppose one person pronounces a word "pillow" like the vitamin pill you take at breakfast, and another pronounces it the same way but is informed by her family that in fact she is saying the word "pellow" even though she ca...

And mash!

Nice way to do it then.

Damn straight, Kale!

Whoa! Not cool! Koile shouldn't have to put up with this crap.

I think you mean "pillow".
