[Lyzzibug ~Still Breathing~]

*EDIT*
Aren’t Fridays at work supposed to be calmer?

Sorry Sally

[Lyzzibug ~Still Breathing~]

I'm about to pull my hair out here. My supervisor took the day off, so lucky me I get her headache.

[Sally, la reina]

can't




stop



writhing

[Jim]

Whye cantnot youse stopp?

[Lyzzibug ~Still Breathing~]

Did I do it again?

[Sarah]

Oops I did it again
that apostrophe
is not appropriate
Oh, baby; baby.

Oops! You think it belongs
it fits in this song
but it's not grammatical

[Sarah]

Possessive:


Not possessive:

[Sarah]

OK, I'm done now, Lyzzibug. This probably isn't helping your bad day.

[Lyzzibug ~Still Breathing~]

It is always good to learn from your mistakes. Apostrophe removed. :)

[Sarah]

Whew. Sally! You can stop writhing now!

[Brittomart]

I saw a sign that said "Thank's," and I thought about Sally.

[Mary]

You would go clinically insane if you were to visit a certain fashion website of which I am a member, Sally. Inappropriate apostrophes are rampant. Rampant, I tell ya!

[Sarah]

When Apostrophes Attack. Tonight on Animal Planet.

"The Harris family vacation started out wonderfully. They spent the first day relaxing on the beach. Little did they know the horrors that awaited them."

[Phil]

"The Harris family vacation started out wonderfully. They spen't the first day relaxing on the beach. Little did they know the horror's that awaited them."

[Sarah]

Ooh. The attack started earlier than I anticipated. The poor Harris's's's have no idea's what fate await's them.

[Phil]

At the end of the day, Mr's. Harri's began preparing the evening meal for her kid's. Putting a pot of water on the stove to boil, she moved to the pantry, reached above the empty bags' on the third shelf, and found the package of spaghetti she had purchased last week. But were the empty bags' truly empty?

[Félix]

Comma comma comma comma comma apostrophe, you come and go, you come and go.

::sigh:: You got me there, I've never been edgy.

[Sally, la reina]

Oh, I thought you said not drinking makes you edgy.

Brilliant!

No Sally I said it put me on edge. I have never been edgy, as Jim so kindly pointed out. ::glares at Jim::

[Carol]

Jim! Stop making Gail edgy!

*smooths Gail's hair*

[[deleted user]]

Sitting outside of Starbucks with a cup of coffee, in Hawaii is heavenly.

[Félix]

On edge:

[Jim]

Geez Gail,sorry I made you edgy!

[Brittomart]

I asked my mom for a pad, and she tried to give me some generic Depends...

[Sally, la reina]

I don't really understand the difference between "on the edge" and "feeling edgy" - they're not the same?

[Jonathan]

"Feeling edgy" and "being on edge" both convey a general sense of unease and/or foreboding. But "being edgy" can also mean something else, something positive--hip, cool, transgressive--like Lenny Bruce, etc. I think that's what Gail was talking about in msg. 1471. Maybe. But then again, maybe not...

[Félix]

Edgy:

[Sally, la reina]

Sense of general unease as in the uncanny?

Ha, I was just playing with you for saying I wasn't edgy as in. No 3. rather than No 1.

edgy   
–adjective, edg·i·er, edg·i·est.
1. nervously irritable; impatient and anxious.
2. sharp-edged; sharply defined, as outlines.
3. daringly innovative; on the cutting edge.


Oh never mind, I'll just go and have a stiff drink then I'll be back to normal.

::wanders off to find the key to the board room cupboard::

[Janice]

That cat doesn't look edgy. It looks severely pissed off.

[[deleted user]]

But, the spikey hair is kinda innovative and cutting edge...dontcha think, Jacks?

[Sally, la reina]

See, my number one definition of edgy is The Australian's number 3.

[[deleted user]]

Exactly my point Sally. I assumed Jim was sledging me.

[Félix]

Sledging? Is that like sandbagging?

[[deleted user]]

Sandbagging?

Sledging is a term used (particularly in cricket) to verbally torment someone.

I hope he washed his hands first.

[[deleted user]]

Phil.

[Sally, la reina]

Sledging sounds like those shots one does in college off a giant block of ice.

[Félix]

It has to be in college?

[Sally, la reina]

Or, if you're Esme, at your parents house.

Really after all this time you think that I would do that to you Gail. I'm crushed. :-)

[[deleted user]]

You have a crush on me? How sweet, I won't tell anyone.

[Jim]

Yeah, luckily no one ever reads this, just our secret.

[Kevin]

if you are wondering perk, yes i do

[janine]

pencil skirts and bicycles do not match. i hiked that bitch up and let my jacket cover any possible wardrobe malfunctions.

[Stacia (the 2010 club)]

Sometimes I really want all of the interesting topics to be at the top of the TC page. By the time I'm about halfway down the page, I start to lose interest in posting.

It can be a bit overwhelming coming back after a couple of days hiatus and seeing all that RED!
