Male and Female Imponderables - A Hard Earned Thirst Needs A Big Cold Beer, But I Drink To Get Pissed. by Nicodemus

"No power in the 'verse can stop me!"

Ooooh - Comedy of Errors!!

"It is thyself, mine own self's better part;
Mine eye's clear eye, my dear heart's dearer heart;
My food, my fortune, and my sweet hope's aim;
My sole earth's heaven, and my heaven's claim."
(Act III, Scene II)

What could be funnier than mistaken identity, Shakespearean wit and not one but two pair of twins?? Well - in your favour is the fact that it is the shortest of Willy's plays... Have fun Whitefall - and

another hug for you - you are one in a million!! Your friends are so lucky to have you there for them!! It's so good to see you here again!!

Ah... now, down to business... could a high school Firefly/Serenity club have fan fic/short stories from the 'verse competitions? Maybe a newsletter which has snippets of info gleaned on the internet...? A recruiting offic for the 76th Battalion?? Oooops sorry - I tend to get a little carried away with the 76th I'm afraid!!

Ignoring the logically designed natural state of a domestic toilet seat...

Whenever I'm at a guy's place, if he leaves the seat up, I always put it back up when I'm done; if he leaves it down, so do I. It's his place, afterall, and I see it as a courtesy not to rearrange someone else's living quarters.

Surely, I can't be alone in this behaviour...?

Magda, as fun as that scene is, I'm actually the other antipholus.... the one everyone talks about but practically no one interacts with lol. It's a great part, I just was sorta hoping when i got cast "she's my wife? this'll be interesting" and suchlike. O well, i get to be angry and confused.

And of course I look nothing like my syracusian counterpart, but.. meh.

...ah, yes... yes you are... one of my chief delights is to put the seat down evertime I go to one of my single male friends places - even if I dont use the facilities...

Ah... it was live, raw, uncooked meat... NO! Doesn't help...

Oh dear... but it's still a wonderful play Whitefall - I love the idea that on the other side of the world there are people who love Shakespeare and are living the dream that I did when I was at School myownself!!

Well I'll concede I do love me some shakespeare... my favorite line besides the obvious "I think thou art an ass." line, has gotta be

"A man is well holp up that trusts to you.
I promisEd your presence and the chain,
Neither chain nor goldsmith came to me.
Belike you thought our love would last too long,
were it chained together, and therefore came not."

Its a guy being angry, but I just like how a guy five hundred years back could write a line that basically equates to "Maybe you're afraid of commitment! O_o".

I can see this needs to be a full-fledged ponderance.

Seats up, or down? This one is mostly aimed at the guys, although the girls can answer it as well.

I ask this partly because of Magda and HK's disagreement over how they should leave the seat in a guy's house and also because I happen to put the seat down when I'm finished.

LOL Whitefall... as I read your quote I thought "Isn't it funny that 500 years later one or the other sex is always being accused of fear of commitment???" There you go - thinking the same thing again!!

I have no problem whatsoever with handling or cooking red meat, especially if that cooking involves as little heat applied as I can.

Amen, brother James! While I do admit that it is a nice gesture if I leave the seat down, I don't want to hear about every time I forget. Same goes for ...

Navy, with regard to parents' strictness - My parents were less strict with me, most likely because I was the oldest (of 3). In high school, I was the good son who would call and tell them where I was and how long I would be there, so they trusted me and let me do more, which pissed off my brothers some. As for the effect one me, I think it taught me about being responsible and such, but I also think it led me to "rebel" more once I decided to in college.

For the Record!!:

When I finish using the toilet, I close it. Not just put the seat down, I close the lid, too. It's a habit I've picked up from living in a house full of dogs. I do this even in my own apartment, even though there's nothing resembling a dog anywhere about it.

Still, in the twenty years I've been using the toilet, I've never fallen in. Bear in mind that I'm being serious when I ask this, but do any of you ever fall in? And if so, how could you have neglected to check the status of the seat before lowering yourself? That's akin to sitting down at the table without checking to make sure there's a chair behind you (in my opinion, at least).

---The Toilet Seat Debate: Baffling men for almost fifty years on PEI. Yes, we've only had flush toilets for fifty years. Really---

Morning all..wow did I miss abunch this weekend. On a plus side. our houseguest decided to stay with his new girlfriend instead!! so I am happy ( though coming down with some sort of cold)

Strictness of parents- mine( I'm discovering) were quite strict. I wasn't allowed to go to the corner market without my nanny until I was 12. I wasn't allowed to date until 16. I had a curfew of midnight because my mother always said "bad things happen after midnight" However, as many have noted. These rules got more and more relaxed as each sibling after me came along. We all turned out fine though , but actually I'm glad I got to be a kid for longer. I look at my students and all the energy they put into being adult at the age of 12 and I'm glad I was busily organizing the neighborhood kids into doing plays to perform for the adults at that age.

Toilet seat- down and closed, but NOT because of any female mandate, just think it's far more hygenic and less icky than exposed sewer water.

Going to make some tea and contemplate how I am going to teach reciprocal fractions to half conscious 12 year olds who are busy trying to figure out the mechanics of flirting.

Cakes are pretty easy, well, for powers of two. Apples should be too, but they are a little more unwieldly.

Cut in half, then do it again, then once more (well, twice) and you've got 8 pieces. :)

I have so many emotes that I have nicked from you shiny folks that I don't use nearly enough.

MSG - I didn't eat, so still trying to think of something clever for reciprocals and flirtation-exploring 12 year olds.

Fractions are okay. Your basic fraction are anyway. It's when you start multiplying fractions by fractions that I get all confuzzled.

On strict parents, my own were a weird mix of strict and liberal. I think I mentioned before that when I came of age my Dad gave me a Bible and a packet of condoms and told me to "use both wisely." He was pretty strict about when, where and how late I went out, but since I was a hopeless introvert it didn't really matter much. My sister got the short end of that particular stick.

Girlie? No way am I girly! I'm as tough as they OH MY GOD CHRISMOOREHEAD KILLED BAMBI!!! HE KILLED BAMBI!!! HE KILLED BAMBI AND HE'S WEARING BAMBI'S SKIN!!! *sob*

Maybe Bambi is transgendered...I mean Bambi is a girls name...
HUGS the traumatized DTH, but at least it was quick and Bambi didn't suffer ( which would have happened had she slowly starved) plus Chris does not have a nifty coat ( or pajamas..since he does love them ever so :)

There, there, DTH...it's alright. He did a very good (and incredibly impressive!) thing. See? Look what MSG said...it's alright.
