Random Thoughts VIII: The Ocho

[Cyclones_R_GR8]

Heard a funny on the way in this morning...funny to me, maybe to Rev & Birdy & Carvers...or you guys with kids.

Stoopid newz...Maxwell, Amy & Pam talking about a guy in China who had "accidental hemorrhoid surgery" and missed the birth of his child (long story). Anyway, they started talking about whether or not that surgery (without anesthesia) was comparable to childbirth. One of the two women said she "knew how it felt to poop out a watermelon"...the other gal said "No idea. One of mine was a search and rescue, the other was an eviction." Never heard forceps & c-sections described that way, but it made me laugh.

Typing it out, it doesn't sound as funny. Maybe you had to be there? But I've already done the work of typing it, so here it stays.

How does one have "accidental hemorrhoid surgery"

Wow, I just noticed another New feature of the new CF. I knew you didn't see somebody's post if you ignored them, but it even scrubs out the post if someone quotes it. It basically kills them off to you. I was really confused in one thread and couldn't figure out would a couple guys were talking about, hit the show the ignored and all these quotes popped up in posts I'd read.

Women have it easy. Do you know how hard it is to count to 4 over and over and over for the breathing exercises?

I had a younger hometown boyfriend when I went off to college. I met hubby before my freshman year started with matching band practice the week before school. About a month in, we were an item. That was 23 years ago, been married 19 years. Big difference between a high school senior boy (who probably was not going to college) and a college junior with a smarty-pants/sugar daddy degree.

In college if a girl one of us were interested in said their boyfriend was in HS back home, we knew that they were easier to break up.

How does one have "accidental hemorrhoid surgery"

He was waiting for his wife to give birth. Nurse came & led him to an operating room, told him to take off his pants and lay down on the table. Clearly this hospital has different surgical prep than the US versions...
Surgical team comes in, snip snip hemorrhoid (he actually did have one) is gone, he misses the birth because his butt hurt too much.
He said he cooperated with the nurse because he thought they were showing him what his wife would be going through. Really?!?! Net result, hospital gave him ~$750 for his pain & suffering (and didn't charge him for his surgery).
That led to Maxwell asking the ladies if hemerrhoid surgery felt like giving birth, and the rest of the conversation.

Like I said - Stoopid newz!

After my time. Lamaze wasn't really in vogue in eastern Washington back when my boys were born.

This is the point where any man should have realized its way off. I would say there was a slim chance he thought he was getting lucky so he laid down on his back. If told to get on his tummy, that's when any man I know would have known something was off and started grabbing clothes.

Public Radios 8:50 Morning Edition feature song today was Weird Al's parody Eat It. Yesterday was Belinda Carlisle and The Go-Go's We Got the Beat. Day before was 50th anniversary of Monkey's Last Train to Clarksville with a nod to the Beatles Paperback Writer as being the melody inspiration. When they talked "inspiration" I was thinking of Erik's posts here on plagiarism.

I think I'd be in trouble now with the plagiarism rules. My son got drilled and got a zero in an English class for this. He had to use this set of notes (not cliff notes but what modern ones are) and rewrite this document. He rewrote it but she said it followed the notes too closely, wanted it more in his own words. So he got nailed for plagiarism. I thought giving credit to your source and changing the wording was good enough. That's what I did in HS and college.

So what movie/ stop animation thing had talking hot dogs?

I think that may be a question better left unasked...

Read an article talking about an attempted murder and sexual assault charge. One piece of evidence is a drawing the accuser made of a sword tattoo the accused has............on his penis.

WHO DOES THAT?!?

Yeah, I don't think she knows what plagiarism is, or the assignment was different. I've always been told that changing the words and citing isn't plagerism.

There was a series of pictures circulating in the early days of file sharing on the net. They were of a guy who had beautiful art all over his body - mostly light blues, greens, aquas, pictures of fantasy beasts and landscapes.. His male parts were also shown - fully tattooed to look like a dragon "in flight"...but kinda sad when not "flying", IYKWIM.

Good question. I'm shuddering just thinking about going through that process on that body part.

Mrs. JCyclonee went to see "Bad Moms" with the neighbor ladies last night. Prior to her leaving our youngest said, "Why are you going to see that movie? You're already doing it."

Nice little burn there youngest JCyclonee.

The idea is usually that you put your own ideas out there. I don't know the assignment, but that's textbook plagiarism from the sounds of it.

Mine are always simpler. Copy and paste from different websites, maybe a word changed, nothing gets cited. It's as cut and dried as can be.

The trick is for people to just do their own work, cite something properly when needed, and move along.
Also, this seems extra important lately, a bibliography is not a citation. That's the new fad, but that has never counted.

Some crappy Oreos apparently

I feel like I'm going to be harshly judged for wanting to try those
