    A lady at work just said her son is going to a brony convention this weekend in Baltimore, MD. Now I'm curious to see if her son has a neck beard.

    I hope there was deep, sorrowful shame in her tone while saying that.

    Mama tried. And FAILED.

    He may not have a neck beard, but at least we know for sure that he doesn't have a normal, healthy functioning sex life.

    Not even close. She went on to then EXPLAIN what a brony is..."he's just a really big fan of My Little Pony!" Co-worker then says, "Oh I LOVED My Little Pony growing up!!"

    Kill me now.

    After seeing Scootah's brony post, I went to Amazon and ordered that exact hoodie. Of course, I ordered it for my children, who are 7 and 9. I was very tempted to order one for my giant, tattoed freak Sadist fiance as a gag gift for his birthday, but with shipping it was a bit too expensive just to get a raised eyebrow and a spanking.

    Whirled Peas

    When I was growing up, we called them homonyms. I didn't realize that covered homographs and homophones until I had a conversation with a school teacher a few years ago.

    I think it's odd that all the news articles include the quote about his boss being worried about him going off on tangents in the blog post, but the actual blog post is not included.

    Re: Whirled Peas

    Oh, yes, I'm certain they have, and the article that CB linked stated as much. But two things that I thought were odd:

    - if that Tim dude is shouting from the rooftops about how he got fired, and he's dumbfounded that his innocent homophone article caused so much controversy or his boss thought it might, why didn't he say, "see for yourself" and repost what he wrote?
    - all these "news" organizations picking up the story: surely they have somebody savvy enough to check the Wayback machine or Google cache or whatever to track down the original post

    ETA: Thanks Gawker! Looks pretty harmless to me. I guess I just assumed no one could be as stupid as that boss, and there had to be more to the story.

    Re: Judd Hirsch in a taxi?

    Tara Reid was quoted as saying she thinks it can happen. Don't worry, she thinks it's a small chance, so not completely stupid. There's a reason that girl became an actress I guess.

    That is the style of hiring process I'm used to in the plants down here. (Freeport, Texas) Unfortunately, A LOT of standards have changed in the last say seven years. Wouldn't mind trying out Nola for a change though.

    *still getting the hang of picture posting and quotations on this board.

    SGEDIT: Fixed quote.

    Re: Judd Hirsch in a taxi?

    Actors are such chameleons, it's impossible to decipher whether they're the real thing or just playing their roles. Go ahead, I DARE you to try and tell the difference between Denise Richards and an actual nuclear physicist.

    Re: Judd Hirsch in a taxi?

    I will assume that an actual nuclear physicist is way better in bed then Denise Richards.

    Of course I will now have to test my hypothesis.

    For science.

    Re: Whirled Peas

    I honestly thought exactly the same thing, there had to be something more going on, otherwise the blog would have been posted.

    Nope, just flat out stupidity on the part of the school administrator. And frankly the whole 'these students aren't at that level' explanation is bullshit, I can't imagine anything more confusing to a non English speaker than all these fucking words that sound alike but mean completely different things.

    Like 'Juice' and 'Unable to Imbibe More Than a High School Freshman Girl Without ReBumping Previously Bumped Threads' mean very different things. Right?
