When I was but a little kid, I once told my mother what could charitably be called a joke:
“Okay, picture a cowboy riding a horse down the road. Suddenly he hears a bang behind him. Looking back, he sees his horse’s feet. ‘Shoot!’ he says. ‘Flat hoof.’”
I had forgotten about that until I saw this post.
You misspelled “delicious.”
You should make sure to say T. Hanks.
Not a fan of lojban?
From now on, I shall only refer to them as kentauru.
So far, the main way I haven’t seen suggested.
I guess I owe my wife an apology.
Nice.
That’s one of my wife’s answers.
You’re very prompt.
I’m sorry, I know nothing about this critter. I was just trying to make a funny comment about the way it was contorted. Hopefully, my comment will make you at least smirk and someone with applicable knowledge will be able to answer your questions.
You’ve never heard of a pretzel before?
I had the same experience with the ice cream.
I tried to buy an external 20TB drive from Amazon twice. First one that came, I bought refurbished; the drive had been shucked and replaced with a 146GB drive.
Second one I bought was 20TB, but was clicking and grinding from the moment I turned it on. When I tried to initiate a return saying “drive is clicking and grinding, indicating that it’s failing,” their support bot helpful informed me that a clicking and grinding drive usually indicated drive failure.
They did accept the return for the latter. They also accepted a return for the former, but it took literal months and several support interactions where the (seemingly real) agents actively lied to me.
I’ve had okay luck with smaller Amazon drives in the past, but will have trouble recommending them for this kind of purchase in the future.
I’ve also heard that honey helps to confer resistance to allergies to things that were in the area where the honey was made. As such, OP might be missing out on environmental defense by not diversifying.
It’s surprising that Bender has yet to say “I’m 40% plastic!”
I’ve never heard of Seychelles in my life before, now I’ve seen it referenced twice in the past hour.
When I got my dog, I was told he was a “hound mutt.” You can see him in a few of my posts. If he were loose and thought you were an intruder, I’d wager it would be pretty scary. The delivery people just leave stuff on the porch, though, so they’re never in danger from him.
My five year old is pretty small, but I doubt they’d choose to bite any ankles. Probably just try to convince the delivery people to play.
I used to have a similar problem when I lived in a house with a property bordered by a very popular sidewalk. My dog scared so many pedestrians by running right up to the fence barking like hell. He never hurt anyone or anything, but I never got him to stop until we moved to a house where the fenced in area was in the back yard.
Fortunately my current home is pretty remote, so we get basically no pedestrians and definitely none close to where my current (different) dog can go. However, he does take affront to delivery people if they stick around too long; I’ve never heard him bark, but he’ll go to the windows nearest the front porch to huff and puff. Sometimes, when the delivery person has left, I’ll tell the dog he did a good job scaring them off … And as a result, my five year old has taken to huffing and puffing alongside him.
I don’t know if any delivery people have noticed, but it would be interesting to know what they think about it.
edit: Whoops, got it backwards.
That’s an entertaining theory.
I knew what they were because my dad had a horseshoe game set and I had seen something about hanging horseshoes so the luck didn’t fall out, but I didn’t know they were actually used with horses for an embarrassingly long time.
