leftovers



Hi! How are you? hey, what a great after-thanksgiving feast!
If you're wondering what I'm talking about, I'm talking about the thing I'm thankful for...leftovers!
Leftovers are really great
Just the prospect of eating all this good food again the next day is the very thing that makes Thanksgiving's Friday so worthwhile.
It is truly gratifying to know there's another day of Grandma's famous gravy (and another pepto-bismo to go with it)

And the greatest thing about leftovers is: you can play with the food
You can saute the potatoes of deep-fry the cranberry sauce
Because nobody cares!
You can put as much margerine on the stuffing you want; "Ah, who cares? They're just leftovers. We don't care."

So preheat that turky
Re-microwave that gravy
And let's all pig out on great, traditional, classically improvised food a second time!

Irony








A lot of people have misconceptions about irony
It's a lost art; using the word for something it actually does mean
It's probably on that list of words nobody uses correctly
Because nobody uses it correctly!
For instance, somebody might say, "hey, I was just talking about you!"
"That's ironic!"
I'd really like to hear somebody correct him, but nobody does
So I have to, "no, that's not irony!"
"Irony is different" They might retort with, "Well, what is irony, then?"
What is irony! I like that question
The answer is:
Irony occurs when something happens that is ironic
Does that help you? No? OK...
Irony is when you're hypoglycemic, but also diabetic
Irony is when you get run over by a bus as you're running to get to school
Irony is when you get shot and killed by a life insurance agent
Irony is a "no food or drink" sign in the cafeteria
Irony is The Gift of the Maji for those of you who have heard of it
Irony is not when you marry a divorce agent, but when you find he cannot support himself in a divorce

You see?
Irony is a simple coincidence when two things go together that don't go together
Please, get it right

nerds are people too

I am a very model of a modern nerdy man
I'm always on my laptop and I program all I can
Star Trek is without doubt my favorite show
Just wait until you listen to all the borg speech that I know
I know 5.50 languages quite fluently indeed
I also happen to get straight A's and never am in school need
My vocabulary collective is the size of Vietnam
And who likes Judas Priest? Because Beetoven is the bomb
I'm very, very able in trivia galore
I, myself could write an episode of Jeapordy and more
Html is a language that is easier to me than some,
If you want proof then go to awesomesite019.com
People are so cruel to me they always call me nerd
But I'm sure I'll be their boss some day and they'll sure feel absurd
But here I am, living on blogging through my strife
I'm sure everyone would be my friend if I could get a life!
