if they had put a letter in there so that it made a word, they could at least say they had made a word
but it doesn't make a word, and there's no 'e' in specific

the Priest doing the pre-game prayer
The fucking WHAT!? You have religious people PRAYING at sporting events? I knew america was god-crazy but thats mental. If you did that here you'd be beer-bottled out of the staduim in short order.

actually, there is a specific wrongness which is really only tangentially related which is saying roman fellow mark antony's name with a 'th', this is a thing i have actually heard, entirely rational anger there tho

In the 17th century, the letter "h" was inserted into the spelling on the mistaken belief that the name derived from the Greek word ανθος (anthos), meaning "flower".[4]

I've heard this on TV, and I think I recall Tony Soprano's wife calling him either "Ant-knee" or "An-to-knee."

ime there are the following types of ant(h)onys:
- anthonys who are regularly pronounced wrong and spelled wrong, and spend far too much time time trying to correct everyone
- anthonys who claim to not care ('really it's fine') and are visibly fatigued by anyone who spends more than five seconds discussing it
- antonys who are mispronounced and/or misspelled by the ~1/3 of people who don't pay attention
- tonys who got sick of all that shit a long time ago

My computer keeps rejecting hard drives. Not sure why, maybe i need more memory but it's doing my head in. I transfer material over to a hard drive and then a while later the computer just pops up a ballon saying taht the drive is no longer usable. Something fucked up going on here and I think it has possibly just lost me all he photos I've taken over the last year on a different drive. NOt sure if permanently or if reinstalling Windows would be the answer. If I did need to do that I would need to be able to transfer material off the central drive, but the computer keeps rejecting hard drives after I've set them up and got them running.

There seems to be no good inexpensive water filter product on the market anymore. We went through three Brita pitchers and all (different models) had the same problem with the actual pitcher falling apart, the lid not staying on etc. Then we switched to Pur, and the filters are so slow that after a week it seems to take about an hour for the pitcher to fill.

Hurting: we've had one of these for a couple of years with no issues, I think because it has no complex moving parts. It's hard to find filters but we did the Amazon subscription for them, which is nice bc that is how I remember to change it.
