"Couldn't have helped that I did a little cabbage-patch move for
out-Frenching three people."
Now _that_ is vaguely dirty.
"Driving along on Guess Road in Durham today, I noticed that the rent-all
place was offering slit seeders. While I realize this is a piece of
machinery used to renovate or repair your lawn, I just think that slit
seeder sounds vaguely dirty."
There's nothing vague about that term, if one chooses to use the
dirty interpretation.
I know a lot of people who love those pens. I don't get people who go
crazy about pens. Those two sentences made me very paranoid about making a
typing mistake, as they could easily swing towards a very different
meaning with one extra letter each. Anywho, not really a pen fan. More of
a pencil man myself. I use a Pentel mechanical which appears to be
relatively popular, but almost everyone I've met who uses one (including
me) seems to think they're the only one who uses one, encouraging claims
of theft. Pentel should start putting "you're not the only one who buys
these, jackass" sticker on the packages.
I wish I had a blog... that way, I could compete with your
hairdresser story of January 14th with my conversation in PetSmart
demonstrating my encyclopedic knowledge of cat food, when a woman confused
me with an employee - due to my shuffling of cat food cans to get exactly
the ones I wanted - in which I was able to instantly identify what brand
of cat food she was looking for based upon a description of the
ingredients. I assure you, as dull as that may seem, the full story (both
hearing it and experiencing it), is even duller.
The P'zone (R) is not a hybrid. It's just a stromboli (a
stuffed pizza). The name, entertainingly enough, seems to be based on
calzone, which it is not, as a calzone does not have sauce in it. So the
P'zone does not qualify as a hybrid, and is instead an example of
branding. The enchirito is, of course, a wonderful example, however, just
one of many from the king of hybrids (Mendel would be proud): Taco Bell.
From the Tacorrito (R) to the Fajita Salad Melt (R), if it's an unholy
union of two dishes loosely based on an anecdote about mexican cooking,
you'll find it South Of The Border (R).
I should have known Ankur was involved in all this. That
man is behind more insanity than you would expect.
