Boggle: “acrkbrdiegmlsotl”
me: “Seriously? Are you sure?”
Boggle: “”acrkbrdiegmlsotl”
me: “Wait — all of them? Or is that final s just an accident?”
Boggle: “acrkbrdiegmlsotl”
me: “If you say so. But when I finish killing off all the abes, you’re going to have to tell the cops and the court that it was you who told me to do it, ok?”
Boggle: “Meh. No need. Kennedy and the other four morons will have our backs. There’s precedent now. Trust me!”
Me: “Do we have to bury them with their heads between their knees, though? Without airplane wreckage I don’t think anyone will be fooled.”

We live in strange times. Where Boggle boards may not speak, but certain conservatives make the argument that of course they do! And those who argue otherwise need to be driven off the internet. Because HONOR!
Looks a lot like my conversations with my cat.
“Mrow”
Don’t yell at me, cat.
“Mrow”
I’m not the one who lets stray cats eat your food.
“Mrow”
If you don’t know how to protect what’s yours, don’t expect me to do anything about it.
Weirdly, Boggle boards only say things that advance the prog/statist narrative.
Mind-boggling.
Look, the abes won’t pout peas in their $#@#ing guacamole. Something must be done. No one disprespects the New York Times without consequences. NO ONE.
acrkbrdiegmlsotl = croatoan 2015
That decisis keeps stareing at me. Creepy.
And only when the threat of chaos looms large.
Like they don’t want to let a crisis go to waste or something.
“Not only does Judge So N. So speak Boggle fluently, but she edited the Boggle Law Review, and thus is eminently qualified for a seat on the Supreme Court,” the President said today.
Beatings will continue until morale improves.
heh
no, lets make that a double heh
Reading a novel, you experience the perceptions, values, and quandaries of a person from another epoch, society, religion, social class, culture, gender, or personality type. Those broad categories turn out to be insufficient, precisely because they are general and experienced by each person differently; and we learn not only the general but also what it is to be a different specific person. By practice, we learn what it is like to perceive, experience, and evaluate the world in various ways. This is the very opposite of measuring people in terms of our values.

I simply can’t understand why I force myself to come here and comment, day after day, each comment a new complaint about things no one is forcing me to read, every one some increasingly strained attempt to point out that I disapprove of Jeff’s lifestyle, and that he doesn’t seem to have a job. I simply can’t.
I mean, why doesn’t he collect welfare like our party pets?
If the Boggle board were provided by an enlightened progressive warriorkin, its oracular orthographical concatenations would clearly reveal the intent to regiment society into the final Utopia. On the other hand, if the Boggle board belongs to a reactionary racist white viewer of Fox News, the letters do not form gibberish but in fact the first lines of the Protocols of the Elders of Zion. The messenger is the message.
Hm. I think I can hear the boggle board cry: “pay attention to meeeee….”
No wait, that’s the obsessed troll, waving his tiny little fists with Imperious Intent. How cute.
Bored now.
Tomorrow morning my oldest and I are going to go kayaking on the lake behind our house.
Codfish, at that very moment, will be sitting in a cubicle somewhere, trying to sneak a few minutes to write up some devastatingly hurtful bit about my looming Arby’s future and about his fantasies of me serving him some fries. Bless his li’l fish heart.
Such are the consequences of a road not taken, cod.
And really. Like I wouldn’t hock a juicy phlegm clam into your horsey sauce before I loaded up your buttered bun with shaved meats, anyway? Careful what you wish for.
Y’know who else enjoyed the occasional dollop of horsey sauce?
Catherine the Great. Allegedly.
And the Boggle appealed to a higher authority, who opined:
“Signs point to Yes”
Re: those Seattle preachers
“Bitches had it coming.”
So, she did take neigh for an answer?
Re: those Seattle preachers “Bitches had it coming.”
If those guys are who I think they are, then they kinda did. The Street Preachers are an obnoxious group of malcontents and blowhards who take it upon themselves to protest just about everything. In spirit, they’re just this side of Westboro.
They show up at the LDS General Conference every six months with their signs and bullhorns and nasty attitude. They’ve even waved around some “magic underwear,” which resulted in a bit of a scuffle (pro tip: don’t cheese off a Tongan), but most of the time we ignore them and go our way.
Some other Christian groups, wanting to make clear that they don’t like the street preachers either, will sometimes stand near the preachers and sing hymns.
They’re known to protest Catholics and Muslims and anyone else that doesn’t conform to their narrow view of the Word of God.
So yeah, they’re highly obnoxious.
They also provide an interesting litmus test of the group they’re protesting.
I protest Muslims too. Not because they don’t conform to my view of Gods word, but because they do! False prophets and the wide road to destruction type words.
Mo created a cult of conquest and domination. Jesus invites all to follow Him and have eternal life. Islam says submit, or off with your head.
I protest that.
di
read the literature link … oh wow, SO true
And Common Core has pretty much jettisoned reading stories and novels.
Kill any nascent joy at escaping into another world in a novel in k-12, then completely bury it in college.
People with no imagination are easier to control
Darleen,
Maybe the Commentary article is worht a separate post? Seems to me there’s enough refugees from the Humanities to get a discussion going.
