    protractions  when you change 'we will' to 'we'll'  etc

    No that's a contraction    There is a difference between the pros and the cons, they are usually opposites.

     

    contractions is when the babies are comin

    noun

    1.

    an act or instance of contracting.

    2.

    the quality or state of being contracted.

    3.

    a shortened form of a word or group of words, with the omitted letters often replaced in written English by an apostrophe, as e'er for ever, isn't for is not, dep't for department.

    4.

    Physiology. the change in a muscle by which it becomes thickened and shortened.

    5.

    a restriction or withdrawal, as of currency or of funds available as call money.

    Chohole is being pedantic again.

     

    Pedantic? One of my pet peeves is people who use the words psychopath and psychotic interchangeably, depspite the fact that they mean totally different things. Norman Bates, of "Psycho"  fame, is often described as a psychopath when he is in fact one of the least psychopathic characters in the history of popular culture. He is a psychotic.

    Cheers,

    Alex.

    Christmas stuff at the mall already???!!!!!?????!!!!!

    Ha!... There was Christmas stuff out in some stores in September... Seriously, anyone out there who feels they may need holiday decorations, winter gloves or a snow shovel... BUY IT NOW!!! Because come December, all the stores will have is bikinis and pool noodles, but come April you can buy your back to school supplies, even though the kids are still in school and most supply lists don't get mailed out until late August. Nothing ever matches the season, and in the rare event you find something relevant to the season it's an obscure size (petite mouse, or extra Sasquatch), horrible model or hideously weird color. I suspect some interesting percentage of the problem retail stores face is this idiotic belief that people only buy out of season because twenty years ago some equally idiotic idiots did a moronically unscientificly narrow study on the shopping habits of a non-average consumers (people willing to be part of an unpaid study do not constitute "average" people) and were able to market their "findings" to marketing people not willing to think for themselves, thus leading to this being an ingrained practice. Having been friend with a few people who working in the market research field, it's truly sad how many badly conducted studies are done, results skewed to reflect predetermined ideas and generally unscientific methods are used... It's generally more about selling a "new idea" then actually find out what is going on and how things work... Quick and dirty math, we have half the equation, fill in the rest based on a guess.... Like finding a tiny meteorite fragment and concluding it came from a civilized world that blew itself up fighting an alien invasion... Based on what? Well there was a high concentration of iron and some pyrimidine so therefore the planet was covered in cities of steel, and being that pyrimidine which under a narrow bunch of circumstances can be a starting point for DNA, clearly indicates the planet was highly civilized if it blew up...  Wha?? Discovery Channel Bigfoot science...

    Sorry... That was an unwarranted rant based on an innocent observation... I should go outside and shout at some squirrels.

    True... But sometimes it is more fun to misuse words because the misuse actually conveys the intended thought more effectively and humorously.

    I think it is funnier sometimes when people accidentally use the wrong word.  Children are very prone to doing this.  I remember one argument that my Son had with his Stepdaughter (all of 2 years old at the time she was) which ended up with her in floods of tears, because she wasn't being believed, and Daddy having to phone me up to de-mystify the conversation. She had been on a sleepover with Grandma.

    I made my first microwaved eggs and sage sausage today!  Only took 5 minutes and tasted WONDERFUL.  I have proven the tech works! surprise  No more going out for $10 breakfasts.. that was stupid expensive. indecision

     

    FedEx found my lost box of healthy noodle soups, now I have 18 meals I don't have to worry about!  Teriyaki, chicken, and Thai peanut flavor - each with less than 3g of sugar, only 320g of salt, and 25g of carb.  Yes, they DO make healthy cup noodles but you have to look hard.. urgh. indecision

     

    Off to clean up my desk spae, then it's time to start working on "Redder than Blood that Flows"... hee hee hee!

    Complaint... What the hell is it with the new iPad OS and autocorrect!?  I wasn't 100% sure but a few minutes ago I actually saw it change something I wrote, several words after it was written... but it's not one word... It's been adding "the", "as", "in", "an", "at" etc. to other words that it changes... For example I had written  " I really won't go into that right now",  which it changed to "I really won't go in there too right now"... The words "into that" were on the screen "accepted" by autocorrect and I was a sentence forward when I paused to think for second and suddenly the sentence moved several words forward... I'm terrible at typing, but some of the really weird grammatical mistakes I've been seeing have really puzzled the hell out of me, especially since I actually look at what I write as I'm writing. I thought I saw it happen a few times, but this time I was looking right at it when it happened.

    I really wish Apple would stop pissing around with making stuff look cool, and get back to making stuff that works right.

    Looks like they put their iPhone auto-correct into the tablets, too.  For a really good, hard, laugh, check out damnyouautocorrect.com!  Sometimes I hurt from laughing so hard when I visit that site!

    Not just textures, morphs, too!  Pool noodles bend when the kids whack each other with them.

    I use some small glass bowls I found in a dollar store (Dollar Tree, actually), to microwave EggMcGmuffins... Only there is usually no muffins... Mostly Eggo waffles... The bowls come in two sizes, 4 inch and 3.5 inch diameter... I break an egg into the 4 inch bowl and cover it with the 3.5, which fits neatly inside, just enough to not touch the egg... My microwave is the tricky part, it's 1200 watts so without fiddling with the power I just compensate with time, usually four runs of 8 seconds each and it is good to go... You lightly toast the Eggos... I use a toaster oven, so I can lay a slice of extra sharp cheddar on each of the Eggos then I either drop a slice of deli ham or roast turkey on it, drop the nuked egg on that add salt pepper or whatever I feel up to experimenting with (crickets were a bust, too jumpy) and there's breakfast. Well, usually only on weekends... Other than that it's just bananas and a huge soup mug of coffee.   There are plastic egg nukers, but since I have yet to find a ceramic or glass version, the glass bowls are good enough... I don't like cooking, especially nuking with plastic... I prefer to poison myself with other things.

    That's, funny... I didn't realize I wrote that... I read your comment and didn't know what you were talking about until I read DanaTA's comment... Their origin is or was as pipe insulators for industrial freezers... They are a source of great pool related fun... You can float on them, jam them into the return jet and hose off everyone around the pool (I thank my friend Rich for that discovery) or you just plain old beat the stuffing out of your friends and siblings with them as my daughters do.... The also make great vibration isolators and draft blockers... If you cut them up properly.  They come in a variety of sizes and colors, I get mine from dollar stores because the same size ones go for $3 at Walmart and why pay more... You can also fit a 1/2 inch PVC pipe inside of them and make a great training sword out of them if you don't want to buy a Nerf sword... Which, by the way was one of the best Nerf products they've made, and is super fun if you have kids... A great way to train them as your ninja minions.

    If I really want to amuse myself all I have to do is look at almost any texts between me and my wife, she uses the dictation feature to send me texts... Siri is an idiot and messes up everything randomly.

    Long Island isn't really easy for people who don't have a car... If that is your local (convenient) grocery store, I hope they open something else grocery related... Maybe a Shoprite, the others seem unnecessarily expensive... Especially Stop-N-Plop... I know some of the Pathmarks are supposed to change to some other franchise/chain... Hopefully they won't turn it into a Bally's or some Mega-MRI center... Friggin LIers must be really unhealthy or accident prone, every time a big store closes they seem to open an MRI clinic or physical therapy center... But sometimes... rarely they open a Bally's, which eventually closes and turns into a Super-Mega 24 hour MRI and physical therapy center.

    Is that called mal apropo ? malappropriate? There is a famous (well I heard of it) much copied character from an old play that comes out with those
