Octopus Overlords

I always have to think about whether one is supposed to eat baba ganoush, or worship her.

Were there non-Anglo Saxons?

Does Keanu Reeves really take is acting serious? I mean seriously.. at some point he has to be thinking.. Damn Im such a fraud... I hope no one finds out.. Oh wait.. they already know... damnit.. I'm screwed.

If she is hot you could do both.

Then he counts his money and thinks "ha ha ha, the fools."

My (still new to me) car's interior smells like starter fluid.

I'm pretty certain that chewing gum does not help you to not smoke, but rather is designed to drive you insane.

Unfortunately I had to cancel some appointments and reschedule a few people for another day. I call up one of the students and I had to practically listen to a whole song before I can leave a message... Seriously? I have to sit through 3 minutes of crap before I can do anything. I must be in a bad mood today, but man.. thats just really annoying. I wonder when she's applying for jobs what the prospective employer will think about that.

I've got a great idea for the next big thing. The next stick note. The next fannypack. I bandoleer that was fitted with beer coozies that have room for frozen inserts instead of bullet pockets.

I'll make millions I tells ya.

I cannot get over how utterly disgusted I am by this terminology, yet it has become pervasive. Can cozy was fine. It got the point across without the overtone of misogynist sexual slang. Did it metamorphosize because people somehow thought a can cozy was something to keep their beverage warm? FFS

I've never heard of a coozie being a misogynist sexual slang. Cootchie, maybe. Coozie, no.

From cooz or cooze, meaning either cunt or whore. Multipurpose, ftw.

Never heard it. Cootch or cootchie I've heard since I was a kid though. Hootchie Cootchie and all that jazz.

And to LM, I think they already exist. A quick search found this - so ones with the ice in them can't be far behind.

Getting closer.

Bastards.

Well, I've heard of cooz as a reference to vagina, but I'm Canadian so that doesn't clear it up.

Listen to Quentin Terantino in any of his movies. Cooz/cooze is definitely part of his vernacular. Whether he got it from us or not I have no idea.

Wow, the model in that first link is a LOT better looking than the one in the second.

This why I always carry spurs in my car, just in case I see that extra "o" on a sign.

When you catch a mouse in one of those olde fashioned spring load trap they always have this look on the face as if they started to say "OH FU................"

Sometimes I get annoyed that not everybody works seven days a week, because it keeps me from getting certain things done on weekends and tasks pile up for Monday mornings. Other times I'm glad they get weekends off because it gives me a couple of slow days for catch-up and planning. I often put in more hours on Sundays than on any other day.

How did people describe tornadoes before there were freight trains?

if quitters never win, then why is it sometimes best to quit while you're ahead?

Brian wrote:How did people describe tornadoes before there were freight trains?

"Herd of buffalo". Conveniently enough, we lost the buffalo not too long before we brought in the freight trains.

How do people know things taste like shit?

I'm not sure what happened, but I'm at the point in my life where a bagger attachment for my lawn tractor brings me pleasure.

I will never rake leaves again.

Rebuilding servers because of crashes after hours sucks, but for the first time in forever, I've had time to surf OO.

There is nothing like finding out your service pack disk doesn't work when you go to load it... and having a work T1 slower than my home cable modem...

LordMortis, you really need to cool it with the alts.

Why do certain cashiers try and make you feel guilty for paying with a a yuppie food coupon? If I had something smaller, I would have used it. But don't get all huffy because you have to make change. It's your job.

Sometimes, retail panic sets in because you're alone and can't get to the bank and because everyone has paid with twenties or larger, you're running out of change. It happens. I'd usually tell the customer exactly why I was asking if they had a smaller bill though.

I've never had a problem with cashiers getting annoyed at making change. I have had problems with getting people to accept $50 or $100 bills, like gas stations, sometimes where you are spending right about $50 any way. In virtue of this I don't take or carry $50 or $100 bills. If no one else will take them then they are no good to me.
