"The problem with defending the purity of the English language is that English is about as pure as a cribhouse whore. We don't just borrow words; on occasion, English has pursued other languages down alleyways to beat them unconscious and riffle their pockets for new vocabulary." -- James Nicholl (the quote author admitted misspelling rifle in subsequent post, but i like riffle)

Correction: Mosquito repellent

On 10 December we published an article headlined “GONE WITH THE WIND Man whose deadly farts ‘can kill mosquitoes hired to create Mosquito Repellent made from his intestinal gas'”.…

It was funny enough but what got me was the two paragraphs:

The odd job man says no one in his home village has ever contracted malaria because his powers knock out insects over a six mile radius.

If true, that would make his fallout zone larger than that of the atomic bomb which destroyed Hiroshima in 1945.


Reminded me of my father-in-law and his ability to absolutely clear aisles at the grocery store.

you can feed me beans and never know it, but add onion rings and garlic then watch out! as Jake (on 2 & 1/2 Men says "I wish i could have saved that one for school!") note, it's not a very nice show in so many ways but Mom watches it all the time and i listen so i pick up bits and pieces of it.
