That over an hour and a half have passed since anyone other than me has posted, and almost an hour of that since my last post, in the evening, on a weekday. Must be nice weather outside.

The word "skank."

I don't know why - maybe it's because it looks like a combination of the word "skunk" and "stank". I think it's a meme of some kind. For some reason, I look for ways to introduce this word into conversations.

"Why yes, that's a lovely new hallway carpet. What skank sold it to you?"

"She didn't do too well in school this quarter. She worked hard, but the homework was just too overwhelming, poor little skank."


And of course, this word can be conjugated and put through all the traces:

Adj:
skank
skankier (comparative)
skankiest (superlative)
skankalicious (hip-hop)

N.
Male (m) - see synonyms under 'horndog', 'man-whore'
She-skank (f) - etc.

V.
(to) skank;

V.T.
beskank, skankify;

My spellchecker wanted to replace "antiboycott" with "ant boycott."

As I'm sure most in the scientific community are aware, I am benefactor for my six year old nephew's ongoing "giant robot" project.

But I am embarassed to confess that I sent the wrong kind of wire the last time I mailed him robot parts, so he's had to busy himself with a few interim projects, including a graveyard for dead insects he finds in his yard; and a big, perfect wad of reusable bubble gum, carefully formulated for bubble blowing capacity and ideal color (dark red colored gum, for example, is too gross looking for the giant wad of ABC gum he keeps in the old dirty toolbox I gave him).

Weird cross-posts in the "I like my wo/men like I like my X" thread.

Busting the cross-post before it gets edited is most definitely amusing. :slide:

Two conversations with the Little Muffin today.

TLM - The Little Muffin
TLMM - The Little Muffin's Mommy (me)

Conversation 1

TLMM: blah blah blah the Captain and Tenille blah blah [I forget why I said Captain and Tenille].
TLM: Wait. What was the Captain's name? It was something totally badass!
TLMM: What? I don't know. Like Dwayne something?
TLM: DARYL DRAGON! Yeah! It's DARYL DRAGON! Bad. Ass.
TLMM: Wait. You're 21 years old. Why do you even know who the Captain and Tenille are?
TLM: Shut up.

Conversation 2

TLM: [About some character actor on TV] He looks like that one guy.
TLMM: Who?
TLM: Gar. He's a pretty famous actor. I think he was in some version of Death of a Salesman. Famous guy. You know him.
TLMM: I don't know.
TLM: Oh, yeah. He was in some Lifetime TV movie about a guy with big ears or something.
TLMM: [Seriously, try to guess this before you look at the spoiler.]

TLM: Yeah.
TLMM: I don't think he was ever in any Lifetime movie about a guy with big ears.

The fact that the Gargle Guy won't ride his motorcycle if there's the slightest chance that a sprinkle might leave a water spot on his bike. :rolls:

A chipmonk ran up on my porch and put his front paws on this strange pink fuzzy thing and whiffled it.
It was one of the slippers I was wearing.
