Mermaids!!!1!
They’re all chasing Charro.
They may regret it
They are not dressed for troll wrestling.
There was a mermaid from Tralee
Who met several men by the sea
She said hold your *own* pole
For I have my dear troll!
But they just could not let her be.
*applauds and throws flowers*
*curtsies and hugs VG*
Hmm, sounds dirty. Not that that’s a bad thing.
very dirty, and very, very good – wins to you
Not the limerick, silly, the part about hugging a VG …
hugging charro is good, the limerick sounded dirty, so all together it is good and dirty, and i like that
It can be as dirty as you want it to be! ;P
*hugs*
*lingers*
I am honoured by the poetry in my name. Thank you both.
You’re a muse! A mermaid muse!
A musing mermaid muse who mews over her muesli each morning.
bitter troll is bitter troll, and bitter troll approves this messege
There are strange things said by the long undead
By the trolls who troll for Charro;
Grimm’s fairy tales tell their bitter tales
That would make your brain bizarro;
The stars giving light hold beer in their sights,
But the strangest they ever did see
Was under the bridge, getting beer from the fridge,
bitter troll speaking in tongues to me.
your very good at that
Pittypat is a linguistic genius.
Oh nuts, anyone can spoof The Cremation of Sam McGee.
She is a very cunning linguist.
*blush* How sweet.
It’s an Eastern Orthodox Christian ritual done on January 6 every year. The first person to find the cross that’s being tossed into the water gets the blessing of the church for the new year.
Makes me glad I’m Wiccan! Blessings for everyone! (Seriously, that looks like trouble in the making!)
It’s not that everyone doesn’t get blessed, it’s just that people from Europe seem to have a strange desire to swim in freezing water….
Or people from South Boston (the L street Brownies do it every New Year’s day).
It’s big in my hometown (Tarpon Springs, FL) Greeks from all around the world come here for Epiphany.
Probably because you’re in Florida. I mean, if I had to make a winter swim in order to get blessings I’d choose a warmer climate. How cold can the water be down there, really?
You’d be suprised how cold it gets down here in Florida Jane. Just the other night it was about 45 degrees. That may not seem so bad if you’re from the northeast but keep in mind that the temp is usually about 80-90 degrees nine months out of the year. A drop to 45 sucks for us. Especially in Miami.
ya, im from michigan so it dont seem so bad, but cold ass weather is still cold ass weather. im just glad its going to be going away soon
I saw a robin yesterday! (But it’s probably just lost. It shouldn’t be here for another couple of months.)
was he with batman?
I did not see him. Next time I will ask where he is.
if you see him, tell um that batman totally rocks, and get his autograph for me!
Will do. How is Bitter Troll today?
bitter troll is ok. tired but ok
charro sleepy too. Needs nap time. No sleep last night.
Is this simple correlation or are these two comments related?
Bow chicka bow-wow!
Me and bitter did tryst last night. For 17 hours. But it’s not related.
45? I hate you. Today the temperature when I got up was 5. 5!!!!!
5.5???? Ignore my last post. I have no right to complain.
Not 5.5…I was repeating the 5 degrees…oh well fvck it. Yeah, it was 5.5 this morning. I sat in my car this morning waiting for my boss to show up and unlock the front door of the store. I decided to conserve gas by turning the car off. 30 seconds later I realized that was a bad idea.
Hee.. At these temps Rando, I don’t think .5 degrees either way really makes a difference.
It was around 5 degrees here to…yup…round about 75 degrees. Beautiful day.
I may have to come room with you.
It was okay here. 25 degrees this afternoon.
Indeed, barely 30 degrees here Janie. I think it’s time we got a fire going, and break out the chocolate syrup… and no… not for cocoa.
It’ll be a balmy 8 degrees here overnight!
That’s right about where we are here now. We’re pretty likely to go below 0 at some point later this week.
With windchill it’s exactly 0 degrees right now… Good lawd! Dat’s cold!
I know, I’m so excited. I wish I could call in cold to work.
The schools here are closing tomorrow because it’s so cold.. what the hell? Perhaps tomorrow, Jane, You and I can find a good book, cuddle up and read together?
Can I read too? I promise I won’t be loud with bitter.
Oh well sure! Perhaps we could get a Jackie Collins book and act out the scenes!
I’d prefer to get the Kama Sutra and act out the scenes, but ok.
Mmmmm, sounds… tasty. Shall we use the polar bear skin rug Diss gave us?
HELLZ YEAH!
*coughs*
I mean… sure… if you want.
I’ll get the sauce, you go light the fire.
Oh and Janie Babe, wear the maid outfit I got you, I think it’s time we “broke it in”.
dont worry bitter troll broke it in for you
bitter troll is helpful
Oh great. Now it’s all stretched out from all of BT’s troll boobies.
Good thing I had a spare. *rustles around in lingerie drawer for non-bitter stretched maid’s outfit.
Thank god for that, half the fun is the tight fit!
45???
It was 36 degrees in Orlando last night. And I got o feel every miserable bit of it!
27 in Spring Hill FL tonight.
Oof. Makes me gload I don’t have to work tonight! (I live 40 miles from my job, and all I own is a motorcycle…)
This type of competition is even more important if you cannot spell.
… or understand the purpose of the indefinite article.
A what?
How dare you end a sentence with a pronoun!!1!
Say what??
Remember the scene from Flowers from Algernon where the dude asks him to puncuate the following?
That that is is that that is not is not is that it it is.
that hurts my brain just thinking about it!
liked that book as a kid, and now i use it for a metaphor of my life (used to be smart, now i’m just above functioning…. at least until caffeine )
A-thi-thi-a-thi-thi-a-thi-thi-a-thi-thi-that’s all, folks!!
Very funny, you.
Answer:
That that is, is. That that is not, is not. Is that it? It is.
that is such a great movie and book.
I have given up on hoping for correct grammar and now simply hope for correct spelling.
I would settle for people figuring out the differences amongst: too, to & two; your and you’re; its and it’s. *sigh*
Even better, their, there, and they’re.
effect and affect. *sighs*
hear & here
heel and heal
lose and loose
apples and apple’s
All of the above….and: ‘would of’.
Oh man, “would of”, “could of”…makes me want to climb a water tower with an automatic weapon.
Me too. The IT guy at work always says that and I’ve been letting it slide for about 6 months. Finally one day I said over IM:
“HAVE!!! HAVE HAVE HAVE HAVE HAVE HAVE HAVE!!!!!! SHOULD HAVE!!!!!!!”
And he laughed. Then he tried to say that we are changing the language to use “of” in that instance instead of “have” because of people constantly doing that. I said “no we are not, what you are saying is should’ve (could’ve) in that instance but when you type it out you just look ignorant.”
Sadly, he still does it wrong. I don’t know why it’s so damn hard! Of doesn’t even make sense in that context!!!ELEBENTY!!!!
I notice it! I hate it!!! It makes me insane!
Also, people at my work type “que” instead of “queue” and I keep telling them “‘Que’ is Spanish for ‘what’ while ‘Queue’ is British for ‘waiting in line’”. But they still keep fukcing it up. So I’ve just taken to typing it as “queUE” whenever I talk to those people.
I love the word queue. Sounds so much fancier and more exciting than waiting in line. I wish I could use it without sounding pretentious.
not pretentious, elitist
unless you’re hanging out with wal-mart rejects, it isn’t pretentious, it’s the correct word
i love queue too (and que for that matter)
¿Que?
*calls up Ivan from Mexico with a bud light in his hands*
i¿Que pasaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa?!
Que pasa, pasa,
Whatever will bean, will bean.
The furniture’s not ours, to clean,
Que pasa, pasa.
¿Que pasaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa?
¿Who you tryin’ to get crazy with, ése? ¿Don’t you know I’m loco?
The entire category of plurals made with apostrophes. Argh. Apostrophes are for possessives, not plurals.
I am a rampant apostrophe abuser.
i admit lose and loose are my downfall — i will even reword what i’m trying to say just to avoid using the wrong one.
and i do mix up other words, and misspell so many others – i try to give notice that i know it’s misspelled, and i get how it bugs others. { passes bottles of aspirin & jack to wash them down } so i apologize in perpetuity for all the screaming meemies i’ve caused (will cause) because i’m not getting much better
or should that be 
?
I could never bear to bare . . . but I grew out of that
I’ve never noticed your comments to be particularly bad in this regard.
(And, believe me, when you get paid to find errors, you notice ALL the errors.)
not exceedingly bad i will agree, but i usually get at least one word per comment highlighted. i do like firefox’s spellcheck feature, but if i knew how to spell correctly, i would to start with. and now i’ve been told there is a keyboard shortcut that brings up a list of possible spellings, but dang if i can remember what it is
I think the errors that make most people headdesk are when the same person constantly makes the same mistake (eg misuse of the SAME homonym over and over). Because then it just seems as if they’re too lazy to bother to get it right.
Isn’t it weird that spellcheck doesn’t think spellcheck is a word?
Yes, IT guy has problems with there/their/they’re too. I’ve said, several times (this is how I learned it) “There and here both have the word ‘here’ in them. They both refer to places. ‘They’re is a contraction, so you use it when referring to ‘they are’. If it’s neither of those, it’s ‘their’”.
He still can’t get it right. I hate being the Engrish teacher at work.
You can also say that ‘there’ is the answer to ‘where?’ That sometimes helps. But nothing helps if they don’t want to learn. That’s what aggravates me — they’re not stupid; they’re ignorant. You can’t fix stupid, but they could fix ignorant IF they wanted to!
(Do you like my preposition at the end? That’s why Canadians add ‘eh.’
)
You just propositioned me? Whut?
ok, trying this: deliberately misspelling wrod — and it works! highlight the misspelled (red underlined word) and a list pops up of optional spellings/words! no more misspelled words! yippee.. okay, just fewer
Charro, I believe I prepositioned you.
Cool tip, Bad Fairie.
Way hot.
Also, simply right clicking on the offending word will bring up the list.
Dirty dirty offending words.
Better check the list to make sure none of those word offenders are living in your neighborhood.
i thought so too, but the trick will be if i remember it tomorrow…. y’all feel free to remind me as needed (see how i didn’t use necessary there because i had a little brain f@rt that took that word away for a few seconds?)
Look, some time its hard for people to no the correct spellings. Just because your good at it doesn’t mean everyone else is. Honestly, I’d just try two get over it, their are alot of more important things.
How do you type a raspberry, smartie?
Pbbbtttt!!!
That hurt to read.
every time someone uses an ‘s to pluralize, a kitten loses one of it’s nine lives
And when someone uses “it’s” as a possessive?
I’ll have to confess to still working on its vs it’s. Somehow I missed that one, and it isn’t coming naturally!
Probably because it’s (it is) stupid. In all other possessive forms we use an apostrophe s but for some reason “its” feels it’s (it is) so special it doesn’t have to. Stupid “its”. My problem is my typing. I type so fast that muscle memory takes over and even though I know the difference I’m more likely to type what I use most often. So even when I know I should use “its” I end up typing “it’s” because I use it more.
Um. NO possessive pronouns use apostrophes, only possessive NOUNS have apostrophes. That’s one way to remember.
Well, I suppose you’re right. His book, her book, your book, etc. The problem is, I think, that those forms aren’t spelled the exact same way (except for that accursed apostrophe) as another word. But English is a crazy language that rarely makes sense from one day to the next so as long as spelling mistakes aren’t blatant and repetitive I’m usually willing to cut people some slack.
It’s how I make money…because other people screw it up.
But it does make my head hurt to read some people’s comments, and it’s precisely the repetition of errors that does that! My sympathy is less because I am extremely dyslexic and was taught ‘sight reading’ (the absolutely worst way to learn if you’re dyslexic), but I can get it straight. However, you are certainly right that English is a terrible language to learn, evidenced by the simple fact that only about 50% of our words are spelled phonetically.
You have to memorize so much in English (e.g. the rule I just told you, which I have told MANY, MANY clients). I haz a sad for people who have to learn it as a second language (but more money!
).
it doesn’t help that english is the bastard child of several bastardized languages, and then american english is the idiot grandchild of either inbreeding or else a union with the devil.
I’m going with the inbreeding theory.
When you consider the number of times someone who misuses apostrophes has probably been corrected…from elementary school, through high school….even maybe college ferkrissakes…not to mention casual bystanders pointing out the error…then we must reluctantly conclude there is something wilful happening.
Also it never fails to surprise me that professional signwriters habitually make this error. You would think that the first irate client refusing to pay the bill would be a learning stimulus.
a dog gets one?
Your rite. its horribel. Their all so stuoped.
“Bort, you’re a federal agent of the United States of America! Never end your sentence in a preposition!”
Are you talking to me?
No, my son’s name is also Bort.
We are out of Bort name tags. I repeat, we are out of Bort name tags!
license plates I mean. Dammit. It’s been a while since I’ve seen that Simpsons.
“I mean…That guy off in whose camper they were whacking?”
Best. Movie. Ever.
“Hey Boss! Isn’t that the whackin’ camper?!”
SHRINKAGE!
Of the to pre-puberty variety!
Ouch. That post made more sense back when I wrote it!
Yes, er, simply, um, you were referring to pediatric psychiatry, right?
After hunting for a job for the past few months, I lol’d
Looks like the annual Polar Bear Plunge got off to a blessed start. (Not sure about where you live, but here in Seattle, we do this on Jan 1st, snow or no snow.)
Yeah, this is an Eastern Orthodox Christian ritual, as previously stated, and it translates to something like “Saint Jordan’s day”. And let me tell you that not all of us Orthodox Christians in Eastern Europe are crazy enough to do that
Still, it’s fun to watch and probably fun to participate in, I wouldn’t know, I still have my self-preservation instincts intact and I doubt it’s much weirder than Saint Patrick’s day and the whole “everything’s green” gig. Cultural diversity, people, cultural diversity 
Demonstrate the second part of your name, dear. Come St. Patrick’s Day, you’ll find everyone making fun of that also. On lol sites, cultural diversity usually means everything is made fun of equally.
Watch the fundamentalists play “fetch” ?
Would Jesus jump in that freeze to grab his cross?
clearly he would just walk across it duh, ye of so little fair. then him the tooth fairy and batman would all go out for beer and strippers
“Hey, Jesus, can you turn this Miller Lite into something imported?”
“Sorry, bro, I only do wine.”
then how about you cure the things growing on this stripper
Her boobs? She paid for those.
Cmon Rando, Jesus is the son he’s hip enough to use “bra” instead of “bro”.
If he has that much hip he’d use Spanx.
how to drown 23 religish weirdos in 3..2..1
Religish?
You know, on your hamburger? Ketchigup, mustigard, and pickle religish?
robble robble
Hungigry!!!
*paces up and down in her kitchen waiting for pie to bake*
I prefer mayonigaise.
Do you use Mirigacle W-hip?
Yeah, I used Mirigacle…wait, say “whip.”
-pokes his bitter troll head in- did someone say whip? Charro get your rear over here! we gonna do some spankings with the mirigacle w-hip
I’m here I’m here.
The on the Sunday After the Epiphany the Gospel reading is the Baptism of Christ in the River Jordan in both the Western (Roman Catholic, Anglican, Lutheran) and Eastern (Orthodox, Monophysite, Jacobite, Assyrian, Armenian Apostolic) traditions. In some countries it is customary to throw a cross into a local lake or river, and the young men will show off their swimming prowess by diving in after and retrieving it. The young man who catches it has ‘bragging rights’ for the coming year. It isn’t a matter of the church only blessing the one who catches the cross–that would teach works-righteousness and salvation through our own efforts, which is contrary to the teaching of most Christian communities that salvation comes solely through God’s grace, irrespective of any merit of ours.
In the Western tradition, the feast is used as an occasion to teach about Baptism, why it is important, etc. In the Eastern tradition, because–according to the Gospel–the Spirit descended and the Father’s voice spoke, it is considered a manifestation of the Trinity, and the Trinity will usually be the sermon topic that day.
Unbeknown to them, Igor was ready at the other end of the pond with battery cables… It was going to be a grueling interview process for newest horror display at the carnival.
My my… how… shocking! *snerks*
-_- I see what you did there.
In true Mel Brooks’ fashion of course.
haha.. yeah. but that’s seems so exciting.
How did Igor make them stand still while he attached the electrodes to their balls with alligator clips?
He was lazy and just dipped wires in the water.
The Eastern Orthodox custom of diving for the cross on Epiphany is of course a lot less strenuous for the Greeks in Australia (where early January is the middle of summer) than for those in Europe and North America!
And it is a lot easier on the Greeks and Arabs than it is on the Russians!
This is Epiphany. Not the one held in Tarpon Springs, but somewhere else where there’s actually snow… In Tarpon, the diving ceremony is set for young men between the ages of 16 to 19 (or is it 21?). Meanwhile the young women between the ages of 16 to 19 (or is it 21?) stand on the shore of the bayou singing “Glad it’s not us in the freezing waters”.
*has an epiphany*
a cross for there own grave? cute
*can’t resist*
There own grave? Where own grave?
You just dug it.
OHHH. im going to do that next weekend at OC
Just another one of those stories that begins with, “and then we all started drinking tequella”
This is a traditional russian orthodox celebration.
