In order that we might all raise the level of discourse and expand our language abilities, here is the daily post of “word for the day”. Rules: Everyone must leave a post using the “word of the day”; in a sentence. The sentence must, in some way, relate to the news of the day.
Subbie Slip has her whip, handcuffs and legcuffs today.
The rest of the stuff is locked up in my drawer. I’m just letting all the new students know that we behave as if we were ladies and gentlemen in here. Those two words “as if” can get you an A if you make the subbie laugh.
Noun
Pronunciation: Thaw/my/turd . Oh, excuse me. Thaw/my/turj.
Etymology: [Greek thaumatourgos : thauma, thaumat-, wonder + ergon, work; see werg- in Indo-European Roots.]
1) A performer of miracles or magic feats.
Thank you, Arghie!!!
Hey, I laid in the MRI yesterday for 50, count them, 50 minutes. The skinny little mattress is only an inch thick. Nothing for my neck, which they were MRIing, except the piece that goes over your head to keep you from moving.
When I got home, I think rigor mortis had set in. But today, my neck is being held up by strings. That's why I can't be in here much today. My back is fine, though. LOL!
You forgot to put in Texas is the only state in the contiguous US with their own electric grid. Or would that be electricity grid?
No, I'M not debilitated. But it's proper to refer to the French as weak women.
And yeah, the MRI is KILLER on your back--especially when your back is what's hurting. And then they find out I've got an extra vertabrae below the waist and have to start over.
Sorry to hear about your pain in the neck. Shall I have a word with Argh about his behavior?
A++++ for you, sionnsar!
Yuppers.
On another thread they posted to, Admin Mod asked them "How do you feel about trolls being nuked on sight?"
How you know you have Alzheimer's Disease: If you are leaving a mall or whatever and forget you drove a car. It doesn't count if you can't remember where you parked the car or if you can't find your keys. That's just CRS.
CRS?
You know what I've wanted to do for some time? Be the first poster on one of JimRob's threads. Here's what I'd say: "Welcome to Zotland, troll!" I don't suppose it would go over much better than a lead balloon.
Crazy Raving Silliness?
OMG, that is awful. Louie, Louie was played at my Catholic high school for dances and stuff. Of course, the words had to be changed a *little* bit.
Oh, xs, the original words to Louie Louie were raunchy. But they were easily changed to accommodate everyone.
CRS: Can't Remember Sh*t
HAH! I've got something similar.
You're too kind, Miss Jan!
With your memory?
Here in AZ we have the Hohocums (the ancient ones), but, of course, they are Indians.
We have been targeted many a time. Before JimRob got his moderators, we had to have "elder" (pre-1998) FReepers come in to get rid of the trolls. They always hit us first.
