02/17 - Wonderful and Salivating Wednesday!

[Kerek]

I decided to spur my usual antics of derailing the thread today with a positive derailment

 

[Lepi]

I've noticed that we're "gently used" a lot of things. Is there something you want to tell us? Are you planning on returning us to the store in 30 days to get your money back? I thought you loved us. But maybe this has all been a lie.

I always feel like the "Gently used" thing kind of softens the blow.

Sure, you're discarded plastic tubes used for jamming cotton wads up a bleeding meat tunnel... but you're not completely ruined, just gently used.

I can tell I've become pretty entitled, because every time a survey asks what country I'm from and I have to scroll all the way down through Albania and Tanzania to get to United States, I get kind of annoyed.

Can just type "U" on most to speed it up.

on a description of someone, it's asking me to describe his eyebrows...the options are 'round' or 'flat'. What the hell does a round eyebrow look like?

No it was always garbage.

Don't think so

Rounded ones are the ones that look like they've been kind of sculpted in to arches, flat ones are like Burt from Burt and Ernie.

 

[loki3404]

I'm actually a fan of the UVa batch so feel free to leave them for me.
