14. There is a rule of life that applies here:

16. Ahhh but there's a catch...
I spent a year stuffing those shells. Trust me, you can get sick of it....

Are you an Italian-American too? IF so, are the men or the women better cooks in your family?

10. Heat up an arc welder...
apply to wound until bleeding stops.

Unless you're talking about emotional bleeding, in which case I say, sleep with her sister. That oughta fix it. :D

39. No wonder you were having trouble with the spelling!
It's always tricky when you're making up words. :D

Seriously, though, why the hell is it "philanthropist" but then "misanthrope"? Makes no sense.

Put me in the :dunce: corner too, apparently. :D

17. My roommate hasn't paid his rent yet
He is a nice guy and I am grateful that he is here. But he has been blowing off paying me his share of the rent and he owes me 400.00...I need to pay back some money I owe, I need TP, cat food, kitty litter, and food. What should I do? I don't want to nag him and piss him off, but I am pissed off because I really need the money.

26. Go completely insane.
Really over the top, the crazy eyes, the erratic behavior. Don't mention the money, but keep murmuring things about "manflesh" and "bloodthirst".

Trust me, he'll pay you.

32. Hmm.
I would go to see "The Assasination of Jesse James By The Coward Robert Ford". It's supposed to be a good movie (for you), and Brad Pitt will get her panties in a lather (also for you). It's win-win! :D
