You do realize the man is playing dumb so he can see where you stash your nets and fish.
Teach a man to fish and he will kick your @ss and steal your fishing pole, your fish, your nets as well as your clothes.
CY, you were right =(
You have learned well, grasshopper.

It is literally "the way to drive" to reach the road. Since it is private property, you can park on it as well if you wish.
Parkways, on the other hand, were originally roads that went through parks. But then many of the parks were turned into stores and gas stations and whatnot, but the name stuck.
No, just to be different I Binged it.
That's a lie. I googled it.
You were this close to a free trip to Bing Decontamination, buddy.

We roast everything in Ireland. Roast veg, roast potatoes, roast meats. It's delicious, done right.
Stereotypically, all food in Scotland is deep-fried, and all food in England is boiled.
Neither of those things are true, he says, chowing down on his freshly boiled hamburger & 'fries'

With apologies to Scint, this is precisely why I hate the way Modern English is taught:
NobodysHome: So, Impus Major, how was summer school today?
Impus Major: It did not go well, Father. (And yes, he really enjoys talking like that.)
NH: Why not?
IM: We read a short story, and then we were supposed to explore how we thought each of the characters viewed the theme. So I spent about an hour writing it up. Then once we were done she gave us the answer and I was totally wrong.
NH: Er, interpretation of a fictional character's possible thoughts is a matter of opinion, you can't be wrong. Did she tell you why you were wrong?
IM: No. I was just wrong.
So the whole, "What would Captain Ahab think about Red Lobster restaurant? Oh, THAT'S what you think?!?!? You're wrong wrong WRONG!" is why I (and Impus Major) hate English...

I put the sealant coat on my glow-in-the-dark TARDIS shoes last night.
And the windows actually do glow in the dark.
I now have five-inch high, hand-painted nerd girl shoes that glow in the dark.
Whingey Wizzard just laughed at me.
Aiymi and Zelda just might pay you for a couple pairs of those.

No apologies needed. I agree. If you support your interpretation with sufficient logical evidence, it doesn't matter if I agree with it - you've proven the interpretation valid.

You're right, I've never* been cool! It's hilarious!
* Okay, when I was a newlywed with a hot wife in Hawaii, that was pretty cool. My coolness points almost entirely rely on her, however.
GothBard is definitely there.

After a couple of days of such fare, we were desperate to eat something that wasn't fried, so at our next stop NobodysWife was delighted to see a "veggie bake" on the menu, where they mixed broccoli and cheese into a pie and baked it. Sounded delightful!
So they mixed broccoli and cheese into a pie, baked it, and then deep fried the pie!
When the sad mass arrived at our table, NobodysWife and I just couldn't stop giggling about the whole thing. Though gods, once we crossed the border and restaurants started serving greens again we both had massive salads... and didn't mind at all that they were 90% iceberg lettuce, which hardly counts as "green" in anyone's book, except for cheap chain restaurants.

…And sorry, no, I don't take Cabonara. Aglio Olio, please, or tomato base spaghetti.
*Puts on 'Mario mustache' and gesticulates exaggeratedly*
"Why you no lika tha tomato? or tha garlic?"
*Pulls of his ridiculous mustache, and pats Mort of the back*
Luckily CT's home-made Curry-pasta (TM-pending) is a thing! So I could still feed kitty some faux-Italian food ^^
I'd want elf, but, let's just be honest: I'd be the suckiest half-dwarf/half-troll of all time, with the worst elements of both.
EDIT: Ooh! Ooh! If we're choosing, I go with drow*! I want to sense magiiiiiiiiic~!
(Preferably drow noble, but, hey, I'll take what I can get.)
…
Wwweeelllllll…
There are the Night Ones elf meta-type.
That would make you a furred, dark-skinned elf that's allergic to sun-light...
:p
You all ever have that thing where a song suddenly pops into your head and you have no idea why? Because I've got Sex and Candy running through my head right now.
I suddenly feel almost 20 years younger…
Don't know if I should thank you for making me feel like an awkward teen again…*Gets a clouded look on his face, as if remembering some far off times for better or worse*
Wouldn't you know it...
If a song could be the soundtrack to your youth …then someone manages to age and distort it to a soundtrack for your present self.
Teach a man to fish and he will kick your @ss and steal your fishing pole, your fish, your nets as well as your clothes.CY, you were right =(
*Notices that Mort isn't dressed…*
Cover Turtle used Leer!

O.O
Color me curious, I may have to download the app when I get home. Not sure what to expect tho, the only gamer-ware I've ever used is Roll20.
