Ideally his dismembered corpse would be bagged and in my basement waiting for strategic burial in various parts of the province.Heston wrote:Steven Tyler is lodging at your house, isn't he?Dr. Medulla wrote:I pledge to use the phrase at least once a day in conversation for the next two weeks.Heston wrote:I want to know why the phrase "sweet surrender" is used in about 500 songs.

Shouldn't you just be able to blow air in his general direction and have him decompose instantly to dust and hair particles like the Nazi sympathizers who drank from the wrong grail in Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade?Dr. Medulla wrote:Ideally his dismembered corpse would be bagged and in my basement waiting for strategic burial in various parts of the province.Heston wrote:Steven Tyler is lodging at your house, isn't he?Dr. Medulla wrote:I pledge to use the phrase at least once a day in conversation for the next two weeks.Heston wrote:I want to know why the phrase "sweet surrender" is used in about 500 songs.

If you have to dismember and bag him you're working way too hard.

This new foamy soap sucks, yet seems to be sweeping the nation. Is it better in anyway?
Look, you have to establish context for these things. And I maintain that unless you appreciate the Fall of Constantinople, the Great Fire of London, and Mickey Mantle's fatalist alcoholism, live Freddy makes no sense. If you want to half-ass it, fine, go call Simon Schama to do the appendix.

I agree. We have it at work. Don't see the point, really.

Re: Mimi and Medulla's Thread of Crotchety Complaints
The soap, I can deal with. These hand motion controlled sinks, on the other hand, can eat a bag of dicks. The restroom on my floor at work has three of them. None of them work. At all. In the restroom downstairs, one of the three works. Those things suck enough when they DO work, let alone when they don't.Mimi wrote:I agree. We have it at work.

What about hand dryers? Those things suck.

Re: Mimi and Medulla's Thread of Crotchety Complaints
I'm okay with those. The Accelerator is especially effective. I hate when people take like seven paper towels to dry their hands. At least hand dryers teach people to tolerate having damp hands for a few minutes.eumaas wrote:What about hand dryers? Those things suck.

I'm sure you're more of a hugger, so you probably don't understand my objection.

Re: Mimi and Medulla's Thread of Crotchety Complaints
They're making paperless hand dryers powerful enough these days to effectively dry hands. It just might take an extra, like, 10 seconds than if you had a wad of towels.
Wiggle, wiggle, wiggle like a bowl of soup
Wiggle, wiggle, wiggle like a rolling hoop
Wiggle, wiggle, wiggle like a ton of lead
Wiggle - you can raise the dead

Sure, I've used powerful ones before, but very few places have powerful ones. Usually the air isn't even hot.Flex wrote:They're making paperless hand dryers powerful enough these days to effectively dry hands.
