New phrase: “I shoot/shot them with my sword”
I’ve used this on Facebook referring to people who claim to blog or have a blog because they use Facebook. Of course, since Facebook is invisible and merely repackages and resells anything I post to it, I decided to coin it on the internet as well: “I will shoot them with my sword.” “I shoot them with my sword.” “I shot them with my sword.” There, I feel much better.

ESL Lesson of the day – Son of of Bitch (i.e., Son of Bitch)
This video of a Korean English teacher explaining choice bits of slang and expletives had me snorting with laughter: My favorite ESL-related clip of all time, though, is Harold Ramis’s opening scene in Stripes (I can’t believe it’s almost 30 years old – I remember watching it at the drive in with my parents): Son of Bitch! Shit! – When you care enough to send the very best.

keriorrhoea
n : gastrointestinal symptoms caused by undigested wax esters (Gempylotoxin) of the oilfish or butterfish (that is contained in their natural diet but remain in their muscle tissue) which may include oily orange diarrhea, discharge, or leakage from the rectum that may smell of mineral oil. The discharge can stain clothing and occur without warning 30 minutes to 36 hours after consuming the fish. The oil may pool in the rectum and cause frequent urges for bowel movements due to its lubricant qualities and may be accidentally discharged by the passing of gas. Symptoms may occur over a period of one or more days. Other symptoms may include stomach cramps,…

response in the dark
Sometimes getting a comment on a post I wrote long ago when I was insane really makes my day: Scalpulation The really puzzling thing is that since I broke my sidebar, there really is no way to get to that post except by stumbling onto it, or perhaps googling for that imaginary word that I made up in a fit of weirdness. That’s really cool. Almost as cool as applicosinox.

“The devil is beating his wife”
Someone at work asked me what this phrase meant the other day. I just got around to looking it up. It refers to the weather condition when it is sunny but raining. I never knew there was a term for it. I always just thought of it as “Hawaii weather.” Apparently, the following phrases also mean the same thing: “foxes are on a marriage parade” “witches are doing their wash” “a tailor is going to hell” (source) To these, I would add another: “The Big Monkey in the Sky Is Peeing on Us, Violently” Mine makes a hell of a lot more sense than that foxes’ marriage parade bullshit.
