Various quotes:
“Zorroastrologism was founded by Zorro. This was a duelist religion.
The history of the Jewish people begins with Abraham, Issac, and their twelve children. Judyism was the first monolithic religion. It had one big God named “Yahoo.”
Moses was told by Jesus Christ to lead the people out of Egypt into the Sahaira Desert. The Book of Exodus describes this trip and the amazing things that happened on it, including the Ten Commandments, various special effects, and the building of the Suez Canal. Forty centuries later they arrived in Canada. This was the promise land of milk and chocolate.
Pythagasaurus fathered the triangle.
Augustus (a.k.a.Octagenarian) founded the Roman Catholic Empire.
When they finally got to Italy, the Australian Goths were tired of plungering and needed to rest. Italy was ruled by the Visible Goths, while France and Spain were ruled by the Invisible Goths.
During the Middle Ages everyone was middle aged. ... Power belonged to a patriarchy empowering all genders except the female. Nuns, for example, were generally women.
In a Romanesque church the stone roof is held up by a system of peers. The usual design was a long knave split by a crosshair. Without the discovery of the flying buttock it would have been an impossible job to build the Gothic cathedral.
Finally, Europe caught the Black Death. The bubonic plague is a social disease in the sense that it can be transmitted by intercourse and other etceteras. It was spread from port to port by inflected rats. ... Victims of the Black Death grew boobs on their necks. ... Death rates exceeded one hundred percent in some towns. ... The plague also helped the emergance of English as the national language of England, France, and Italy.
Ferdinand and Isabella conquered Granola, a part of Spain now known as Mexico and the Gulf States.
Calvin was born a generation after Luther and is seen as one of Luther’s greatest predecessors. He accepted all Luther’s ideas except that of birth. Calvinists were the only ones who believeed in pre-detonation. It is not surprising that their preaching consisted mainly of dogmatic explosions.
The Popes, of course, were usually Catholic.
Henvry VIII survived an assault from the Papal bull.
The Thirty Years War began with the Defecation of Prague. ... Prague was the capitol of Bulemia.
These good times ended when England suffered Civil War between the Musketeers and the Round Ones. Oliver Cromwell solved this and other problems by removing prominent things from people who disagreed with him.
Next time you hear Porter shout, Queen of Hearts-like, “Off with their prominent things!” you will know why.
East of the back of the beyond were the Russians, who knew nothing at all during this period. A factor in this was their use of the Kinetic alphabet. ... Russian nobles wore clothes only to humour Peter the Great. Peter filled his cabinet with accidental people and built a new capital near the European boarder. ... Catherine the Great rose to power only because her husband had been murdered by his clothiers for failure to incubate.
Americans, of course, wanted no involvement in the French and Indian War because they did not want to fight in India. ... The Boston Tea Party was held at Pearl Harbor. The Quebec Act was an Intolerable Act becaude it would have required Americans to learn French in School. ... Benjamin Franklin, already famous as inventor of the light bulb, persuaded French King George III to help the USA.
Another problem was that France was full of French people. Dickens made this point in The Tail of Two Sisters, which he required us to read.
An example of the importance of women during the industrial revolution was the work of Spinning Jenny, a young girl forced to work more than 40 hours a day.
Another man to influence the state and others was Karl Marx, who advanced his theory of dialectical maternalism. ... According to Marx the stages of history are canabalism, slavery, fuedalism, capitalism, and back to canabalism. These are the moods of production.
Nearly everybody breathed a sigh of relief when the Communists were able to restore chaos.
When the Davy Jones Index crashed in 929 many people were left to political incineration. Some, like John Paul Sart, retreated into extraterrestrialism. ... The New Deal was an idea inspired by President Franklin Eleanor Roosavelt.

Warning. Do not read when going to bed. You’ll laugh so hard you’ll keep your spouse awake and have a fight about it. But you will laugh until your eyes bleed and you half choke to death, so remember to breathe!
Why, hanged, of course.
He’s already hung.
"Women" vs. "Woman"
Women is plural. Woman is singular.
Of course, the people who need correction won't even read this thread.
Of course not. But that's what the brain is for. And if that's inadequate, should we really care? This is an online forum, not a HS or college English exam. We all makes mistakes in out typing. We all have those fluky words we sometimes misuse or don't really understand. It happens.
Also, there's the 'editing trap', where you write something, decide to change it before posting, and miss that word, a few before or after the change, that also needed to be changed. It throws the entire sentence or statement off.
That's really what the 'Hugh' and 'Series' jokes are about. I'm for doing an 'LOL' and be done with it...
Encore! Encore!
“Caesar was assassinated on the Yikes of March, when he is reported to have said, “Me too, Brutus.” Rasputin was a pheasant by birth. Victims of the black plague grew boobs on their neck. Judyism had one big God named Yahoo. Marie Curie won the Nobel Prize for inventing the radiator. And “During the Dark Ages, it was mostly dark.”
Oh, I dunno.
I kinda like those myself but wouldna force others to use them.
[and it *should* be “could have/should have/would have”]
Uber alles, Salamander!
LOL
Sorry, but as a very old English teacher, my pet peeve is the trend in almost every forum where people use “the” when they really mean “they.”
Where did that come from? I don’t ever remember seeing that use before. Is it Ebonics that is fracturing normal words?
I’m not dinkin with the grammar. :-)
There’s a spell check? I didn’t know of its Existence. :)
Silly me. There it is is just below the Tagline window. Oh good, now I won’t spend so much time on correcting own spelling when those squiggly lines appear.
I’m afraid we purists have lost the battle against “gage.” 300 million US-sold cars all agree that’s the spelling.
LOL *choke cough choke* LOL

All is well, but I think you speld "suspishus" rong.
Hehehe...
It's "sneak peek", not "sneek peak", "sneak peak" or "sneek peek"; and it's "oops", not "opps".
I never had an idea that Existence should be in caps. What is the rule? Thanks!!
