"It's okay, I like to clear drains this way," Tom said succinctly.

Re: oh yeah?

that's bad - that's gross - that's really good!

[rebmommy.livejournal.com]

thanks for explaining what Formicidae are - you are very, very clever

I had to read the comments to understand wtf that was all about.

Well played, sir. Well played.

"You know, I really need to get to the florist's this afternoon," Tom Swift said lackadaisically.

"I refuse to give back the pickup I borrowed from you," Tom said truculently.

[patgreene.livejournal.com]

"Hey! My Schnauzer just won best of show at Westminister!" Tom said doggedly.

Thank you

"I'll decide which car to purchase just by looking at the pictures," said Tom autobiographically.

"Dammit. Dammit!" said Tom recursively.

"The first time, I wrote it with my left hand, but it really was illegible," said Tom recursively.

Yours really sounds like it needs a tune.

[thnidu.livejournal.com]

Oh, ****.

"At the risk of appearing antirationalistic, do you not find it anticlimatic that Ants do not inhabit the Antarctic", ask Uncle Tom of A(u)nt Ennae, anticipatingally?

[rebmommy.livejournal.com]

just showed your post to dad - he looked confused - I said, "do you get it?", pointing to the word Formicidae - his "no" turned into a groan and then a laugh as he left the room, shaking his head - just thought you'd like to know

[vito-excalibur.livejournal.com]

Oh. Oh MAN. I hate you so much right now, you have NO IDEA.

[seventorches.livejournal.com]
