Comment on Important Notice by Steve

An argument could also be made that whoever crafted that notice was in a state of shock, after witnessing the alleged damage - and therefore beyond using comprehensible English. Then again, probably not.

The syntax in that notice actually made my head hurt for a few moments.

I’ve run into things like this quite a bit actually, especially at my past job. Most of the time it was because the author was in a hurry and didn’t bother to check what they were writing, but occasionally it was just because they didn’t know it was wrong. It makes me kind of sad.

I wonder if they were the same Mormons that came by my place before I moved…

Roommates suck, that’s why I don’t usually have one.

I’ve had roommates that seem to lack the sense of “what’s yours is yours”. Really, the only solution I found was to shop, post the receipt (or a copy of it) and make the scavenger pay me back for half. This works in the sense that you won’t be out the MONEY for all of the food he mooches, but not so well as far as arriving home after your classes and finding that all of the needed ingredients that you had planned to use for dinner are no longer available.

In regards to the Mormons, I had a similar experience with some equally enthusiastic Jehovah’s Witnesses. When they asked me if I believed that should the human race launch the Nukes and “try to destroy themselves,” would God sweep down his devine hand and save us from self destruction? [I replied by telling them, “Absolutely not, He doesn’t interfere with Free Will.” After that, I questioned their attempts at recruiting others, since JH’s believe that (some limited #) of people will even be saved. I mean, anyone with a minimal understanding of statistics would be able to analyze that situation and realize that their best chance would be to leave the rest of us alone.

Eurythmics - Adrian (? - may be a guy, lyrics are ambiguous)
Eurythmics - Jennifer
Joan Armatrading - Rosie
Joni Mitchell - Amelia
Laura Branigan - Gloria

…which works out to exactly one more dozen, if you put them in order.

Those kinds of invitations are more intriguing when they’re from Anonymous.

Okay, that anonymous comment was me. My brain’s a little fried…

No suggestions on removing cat smell except to possibly burn everything it touched (not an altogether realistic suggestion, I know). But if you get too overwhelmed by the smell, you can always crash on my couch for a bit.

True Affection is much better, it’s unnecessarily spastic like “Pile.”

This sentence makes very little sense.

To the contrary!
The Mars Volta-Deloused in the Comatorium
Atmosphere-When Life Gives You Lemons, You Paint That Shit Gold
The Beatles-Please Please Me
The Beatles-The White Album Disc 1
Bjork-Medulla
The Clash-London Calling
Eisley-Room Noises
The Flaming Lips-The Soft Bulletin
Foals-Antidotes
Matmos-The Rose Has Teeth in the Mouth of the Beast
MSTRKRFT-The Looks
Radiohead-Kid A
Radiohead-In Rainbows
Radiohead-Hail to the Thief
Sigur Ros-()

You seriously think that “True Affection” is equal with “Pile of Gold”? True Affection is much better, it’s unnecessarily spastic like “Pile.”

Thankee! I guess it’s less of a rule than I supposed. (I suppose there’s nothing people can do to make the bonus tracks go somewhere besides the end…)
