"I'm not even supposed to be here today." I am retired but work part time and all my co-workers and/or their kids keep getting sick and I am the go to guy. I have never missed a day in over a year...I hate when people use their kids as an excuse for their laziness...I understand the legitimacy of a lot of this but some ppl milk it. I see them out and about or they even come by the store...If you are too sick to work you should be home dammit.

I had a rather large mole on my ass, my lady asked me to get it removed. So a few days ago I did, I havnt been able to comfortably sit down for 3 days. Then last night she pulls off the bandage and theres this big bad ass scar. She then unappreciativly says "god that scar is ugly, I preffered the cute mole"

WTF is that ****......

I like to spell colour this way, but I just wasn't sure about the other stuff. Firefox is Americanizing my English, the bastard!

Isn't there a setting somewhere you can change so it doesn't do that? I think a lot of programs have options for more than just American English.

Speaking of that, the frigging lamest thing I have ever heard was that for some books written by British authors, they actually release American editions for the US market with Americanized spelling and words. I know we sometimes look like it, but we're really not a nation of retarded people. Most of us do know what someone means when they say "torch" instead of "flashlight" and still know what "colour" means even with the U in it.

I still chuckle a little every time I run across the word "snog" in British popular literature. It just sounds like a foul Christmas treat.
