the annual chile eating contest! (unquote)

Last time I checked, "Chile" was a long stringy country running down Argentina's inner thigh. I never heard tell of no Chile eating contest. Though, yeah, Pinochet probably snarled some such at Allende during their contremps.

Sal baby, you wants yer chile with carne, or with tremps? Auggie, lets just stick to the tremps.

Maybe change the site's name to TBV: the Bashful Voyeurs? That's what y'all just outed yourselves as, mooching the work of more proactive pervs than yourselves.

Me wants to know why they only want prevert photos less than 2 years old.

Crazy

I unabashedly wish a swift and painful death to all of those so-called drivers.

Pleasantry

Waimai drivers are the grooviest, coolest people going. They have to bust their ass all day navigating purblind pedestrians, stumbling about with their cell phone glued to their brains. Waimai and kuaidi drivers rule. They get shit done. I know. I used to be a taxi driver. I drove like a bat out hell.

Yes, second visited in the world and nothing to see. Except the ground floor China history part the rest is meh... African masks and coin collections... wow. In my 5 years here there was one small Picasso exhibition in 798 and that's it. This just proves that its not quantity that matters, but quality.

If you call eating cake "hearty" then ok.

Gawd, boy, you write like a diabetic, HIV-positive, Corona-wracked septuagenarian. Eat healthy and live long; or eat hearty and die happy. Stop fretting over the menu.

Think about it this way: if you went to an interview and they said, “We really can only hire you if you get a degree from the University of Underwater Basket Weaving,” but you already have a degree from Harvard, wouldn’t you think twice? (unquote)

If the job was weaving baskets underwater, I'd think the interviewer wise.

Freshwater or saltwater? These are entirely different sub-disciplines. Inland northern freshwater? Southern swampland fresh water? Not to mention brackish! Please refrain from exclusionism. I happen to be an LBJTQTREHHDDSAD/two spirited andyrogyne, and I take offense at your indistinction between Freshwater (under) Bascketweaving and Saltwater (under) Basketweaving.! Seven Hail Mary's and a bit of lash and you may save your mortal soul, barely.

Good mentions! Will be sure to include them next time around - see you then!

More like by that same token, you should be watching college basketball, which yes, many viewers say is more interesting than pro ball.

Now there's an epidemic of helpfulness? I have a vaccine for that: open belligerence. Remember, "a soft wrath turneth away words."

Ha! Too much of the hard stuff and words do tend to come out in a certain manner.
