Some people pronounce the last e as a hard e. Those people would be wrong
How many times did you guys make the "Good things come in small packages" joke about each other?
Because they're Iowa fans and didn't get much book learnin'.
Actually none. Oddly I apparently came across smooth with the ladies, but was totally unaware that I did. If what I knew now........
Don't you mean, "If I knew then what I know now...?
Sorry, this has been a long afternoon for me and it's only 1:30.
I’m getting old plus I hated English class. I still stink with the ladies. Been over 22 years since my last first date.
TIL these past 4 days:
- You don't truly get out of traffic driving between Kansas City and St Louis. I was able to use cruise a total of twice, and each time lasted less than one mile
- I hate bears (both Baylor and Chicago varieties)
- I don't actually dislike tomato soup, I dislike bad tomato soup
- I still know all of the lyrics to every song on Steve Miller Band's Greatest Hits, despite not hearing some songs for years
- glass, though transparent, is still a solid
- I'm capable of owning a fun vehicle
- I can forego food for long periods of time if it means getting out of bed to obtain it

I would do anything to help him. We have been best friends since elementary school. He is not the type to ask for help, and somewhat ashamed to accept it. But I'll be there whenever he needs me.
Also......about 15 or so years ago, he was hooked on meth, and got off it. By himself, cold turkey, no rehab, nothing. Amazing. I don't suspect that to be an option, but you never know.
No, that's the wrong way to pronounce it
Okay, I'm confused. You said earlier that the hard e sound was wrong. Now you're saying that the long e sound is wrong. How the heck do YOU pronounce it? M&Ms???
Very true on the I-70 traffic. Only done it a couple of times but damn that is a busy stretch.
Agree on Baylor. Buzz off on DA CHICAGO BEARS
I don't think I-70 between KC & St Louis is all that bad. Sure it can suck at Columbia, but I always feel I make good time without much hassle. Most time I drive it is on a Saturday morning so that might be part of it.
With my accent it sounds a little more like Reesez Piecez when I say it. Then again, the state south of us is Missouruh to me.
In a minor victory it only took me about a minute to quietly creep through my furnace/utility room and find and dispatch a most noisy and unwelcome cricket.
