Whoa! Wait a minute! You are implying that a hammer is only good for driving nails. Not true. Also good for removing nails. Is a good paperweight. Can be used as a weapon.
Actually no, you are wrong. There are plenty of superstitious Catholics that believe holy water has near magical properties - for healing etc. Especially if the water comes from a particularly 'holy' spring. Of course it is all superstitious bullshit, but there are millions that believe in the magical powers of holy water even nowadays. And of course it is really a pre-christian foible going back to the stone age where sun, moon, water, earth were venerated and worshiped as if imbued with spirits. The Christian church merely adopted the associated practices as they were unable to stop the 'faithful' going ahead and doing what they always did.
Huh? Are you suggesting he is work shy? What do you base this on? Would you send back the generations of Greeks already living in the US to Greece based on your bigoted preconception?
I don't live in Australia and I have never had any problem understanding Australian English. I'm guessing that you are from the US. I have found that people from the US tend to not have a very good ear for understanding English spoken by non US speakers. I genuinely wonder what is up with that. I live in the US but am not from here and personally have little difficulty understanding English speakers from other parts of the world. I think it is just a matter of exposure to different accents over time. Same as learning other languages. As they become more familiar they become more accessible. Though I must admit to being a very poor and lazy linguist.
You mean cougars like those older women that like to prey on younger men? (I saw it on th'internet). I think you might need more than eyes on the back of your cap...

Did you mean Tolkien? I think it is fair to point out this error since you are discussing spelling!
Here is a link to an mp3. It IS legal because it is mine and I want to share it. So now we do NOT know that linking to an mp3 is illegal. http://acetonestudio.com/bigshiny_plasmarock.html
Whoever it is does the same thing every Friday.
I see you are a bit late today. Held up in traffic?
So it is like homeopathic 'medicine' then?

Why is everyone talking about selling holy water? Last time I paid attention it was free.
Not in recent years, in my experience.
Wish you'd stop referring to ProTools files. Aren't they just .wavs or .aifs? You may as well call them Ableton Live files or Logic Pro files. Pah.
What? Again? Let this be the last time now. OK?
comma key broken?
Why are you conflating the war of independence and the civil war?
I see that you have made 'eyes' rhyme with 'eyes' and that you have also made 'eyes' rhyme with 'eyes'. Clever!
Uh, this was a joke, ok?
This proves it for once and for all. Apple is evil!!! What?
You linked to an article debunking Merkel's statements about Greece. Yes, you are bigoted. Now get off my internet.

A nod's as good as a wink to a blind bat.
Now I understand. Thank you for clearing that up.
I thought you meant something about a man, eating crickets. Man-eating crickets; much more interesting!

Is relevant again. Must be the behind the scenes work of the ex-Google CEO. Stock prices will soar following this announcement!
