A thread for things that don't warrant their own thread

Our alphabet used to have 27 characters. The shape of the character (&) predates the word ampersand by more than 1,500 years. In the first century, Roman scribes wrote in cursive, so when they wrote the Latin word et which means “and” they linked the e and t. Over time the combined letters came to signify the word “and” in English as well. Certain versions of the ampersand, like that in the font Caslon, clearly reveal the origin of the shape.

The word “ampersand” came many years later when “&” was actually part of the English alphabet. In the early 1800s, school children reciting their ABCs concluded the alphabet with the &. It would have been confusing to say “X, Y, Z, and.” Rather, the students said, “and per se and.” “Per se” means “by itself,” so the students were essentially saying, “X, Y, Z, and by itself and.” Over time, “and per se and” was slurred together into the word we use today: ampersand.

I would like to think that a verbose fukker like Van would have said goodbye.

I know he had mentioned that he was going to have surgery. Hopefully he made it through OK.

What isn't infinitely doable when stoned?

I remember when Wendy's came out with that bar, must have been around 1989-90. I'd skip breakfast on a saturday, roll in there around 1 or 2 in the afternoon and proceed to eat my body weight in grub. Mostly from the messican and italian sections. I suspect others did the same so they had to discontinue it.

Wendys and Chick Filet are the GOLD standard when it comes to fast food. And I am not just saying that, I can back it up with FACTS.

Wendys is the only one of the big 3, to use non-frozen beef. Just eat a burger from burger King, and then keep track of your bowel movements over the course of the next week. Chances are that you will be farting constantly, and your feces will have a good amount of blood in them.

Breakfast at Burger King is a filthy greasy hell hole. IN CONTRAST, breakfast at Chick Filet is a lesson in dignity. The eggs at Chick Filet were soft and fluffy, the coffee was superb, as was the 100 percent florida OJ.

One of the main reasons I attribute to Chick Filet being superior to Burger King is simple. Chick Filet is a born-again christian company, with impeccable values and morals, and they are closed on Sundays.

Burger King, on the other hand, caters to the lowest scum of society, Criminals and thugs eat there. SO, quite honestly, I am glad the food is dangerous and bad for you, we dont need criminals and thugs living long lives, do we?

The fact that you found that his dick didn't taste like shit doesn't prove that he isn't gay.

Bro -- if his reply was IKYABWAI he would have posted something about you waxing your pubes as well.

Instead he posted about lift and steam.

Not the same.

How is it that some KC peeps struggle with the whole IKYABWAI concept? You'd think they would have mastered it by now. Sheesh.

Tell me something... in what fucked up world does saying "KC Scott is wrong" have anything to do with saying "Gobbles McTubesteak is right?" I am not defending him. Link me up to where I said he's right and you're wrong. That would be defending him. Put simply, I only said... you're wrong.

He was neither right nor wrong about anything. Follow?

It pisses me off when people use "absolutely" when "yes" would work just fine. I find this is usually done by people that are trying to look smart. The poster boy for this was Mike Tyson.

Also, I believe Sly Stallone used "absolutely" a lot in the rocky movies, as well as in real life. With his thick brooklyn accent, saying, "absolutely paulie", absolutely, Since Sly didnt have much of an education to begin with, being from the mean streets of Brooklyn, using the word, "absolutely" does seem to make him seem a bit smarter. NO, not really.

Maybe I'm just too used to dealing with dimensional tolerances and all. But it just sounds to me as if they're saying that a team is something along the lines of .9998ths of a run from tying the game up. As if the last run scored was actually a run and two tens.

Couldn't they just say "They are a run from tying the game?"

That is quite bothersome, BUT what about the fact that you drive on a PARKWAY, and you PARK on a driveway. WTF??

Or, why does the doc ask you to cough while fondling your ball sack?

The Three Christs Ypsilanti

The Three Christs of Ypsilanti (1964) is a book-length psychiatric case study by Milton Rokeach, concerning his experiment with a group of schizophrenic patients at Ypsilanti State Hospital in Ypsilanti, Michigan.

To study the basis for delusional belief systems, brought together three men who each claimed to be Jesus Christ and confronted them with one another's conflicting claims, while encouraging them to interact personally as a support group. Rokeach also attempted to manipulate other aspects of their delusions by inventing messages from imaginary characters. He did not, as he had hoped, provoke any lessening of the patients' delusions, but did document a number of changes in their beliefs.

While initially the three patients quarreled over who was holier and reached the point of physical altercation, they eventually each explained away the other two as being mental patients in a hospital, or dead and being operated by machines.

Rokeach came to think that his research had been manipulative and unethical: "I really had no right, even in the name of science, to play God and interfere round the clock with their daily lives." He offered an apology in the afterword of the 1984 edition of the book.

Ben and Jerrys Peanut butter cup ice cream should be banned.

Had a small bowl of it last night, putting the last bit back in the freezer. But the fukking shit kept calling my name "C'mon smackie, come finish me off" So, I hopped up, grabbed it from the freezer, walked into the living room and jammed it into cockblock's hand and told him to hurry up and finish it off before I did. Don't have to tell CB to do something like polish off some ben and jerry's twice. Wish that was the case with mowing the lawn or doing his laundry.
