"Man, that's not how I imagined X sounded at all!" This is what I hear when I read, but removed or at a distance if that makes sense. I hear my voice, the way it sounds to me when I'm speaking out loud, but it is not so strong/close. I can't imagine it not being there. I also read tragica...

Petrie

people always just refer to me as brain or josh on here. Josh is right out; Doc is Josh, Zevlag-Josh is Zevlag, you are brain. I guess I could call you Mister but that's a pretty generic male nickname, so how about Underscore? :P I don't have any Pwebber-given nicknames besides dope and gator, but ...

Petrie

Right said, Fred.

Petrie

Worst. Channel. Ever.

Save that for when the programs start airing.

*whacks television* Somebody move the bunny ears to the left a little.

I thought I saw a boob when you did that but then I remembered, this isn't that type of channel. Probably an elbow.

Petrie

no explanation on these ancient nicknames! Someone can correct me on the parts I mess up, because I will here, but some -quite a few of them- of the nicknames you see (Chico - Josh, Fabio - Rei, err...others - others) came from Pweb chat's heyday. People were jokingly given certain roles; chat kill...

Petrie

I feel the exact same way. It doesn't help that all the girl friends that I've had, have been prettier or more eye-catching than me. So, whenever we would go out anywhere, guys look at them and never, ever at me. It's not great for the ego. That was jr high, high school, and part of college for me....

Petrie

Yeah, she's one in a million. (Or something like five million, I think the ophthalmologist said.) Awwww!!! That is so romantic!! Given the current population? That's only moderately romantic in the States and considerably less so in, say, India. The opthamologist gave her better than Syphon did. Ts...

Petrie

I don't like calling/referring to him as Fetus. Eriador or Eri for me.

Petrie

I think you could have been there and still not been amused. Ed and I are special little people.

Yep. That's it.

Petrie

haha, you edited? That's no fun, goob.

Petrie

I used to be one of those weirdos that like Xenocide the best. But right now, it would be Rubber Soul.

Oh, was that the Beatles?

Petrie

he has better luck than me navigating the airport.

I don't think that was you. I had a hard time navigating it, too, and I don't consider myself particularly hopeless in airports anymore.

Petrie

I had what were probably the least painful cramps I've had in ages today and I'm pretty sure I saw some period related discharge, though not my actual period, so I should be bleeding soon. This is good news in that it explains a bit the epic low I felt yesterday at what should have been shake-off ty...

Petrie

I used to jokingly mispronounce Utah as "oooh-tah" (oooh, to rhyme with the proper "you," as in oooh la la). Reading a news article about the state, I found I unintentionally mispronounced it in my head.

Petrie

Kim, I know it won't help much with the fear but my mom had severe enough endometriosis that the doctors told her she wouldn't be able to have kids and just look at what (among others) came out!

Petrie

I'm so low in the fanitude levels, I might be off the charts. Besides Help, I learned about most Beatles songs through pop culture and am still -yes, still- figuring out some songs I've long known about are theirs. Conversation a few years ago: Me: "The Wonder Years Song [something something so...

Petrie

I love opals Same. If I ever get married, I'll be disappointed if I get a ring with anything other than an opal as the main piece. Even if I don't get married, I'll be disappointed if I don't get myself a ring with an opal. I had one I wore all the time but my fingers lost too much weight and it wa...

Petrie

I say the simpler, the better.

This.

Petrie

"Don't quit your day job" is a good place to start.

Petrie

They look like beetle holes to me. Argh. You are probably not far off the mark, which sucks. I've been reading about this since you pointed me in that direction and they say "prevention" is the best defense and that it's difficult to get rid of them once they're there. This poor tree is c...

Petrie

Sorry, in advance. A musical-ish reenactment of the Hill Conversation. http://www.northeaststage.com/images/stage_curtains.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v380/DariaMSSW/Personal/th_AleaPuppet.jpg Jeebs has come out of his hole! Isn't it just so exciting, Ed? You know, Pweb needs its droll. I'...

Petrie

Kind of warm outside. Anyway, I was playing in the yard and remembered about my dad's leaves looking different than mine in the images, so I took more pictures. The first two pictures here show older leaves right next to new growth. I think, lighting aside, the older leaves look the same as my dad's...

Petrie

Chris, didn't you just move into this apartment you're leaving? I could swear it wasn't that long ago that you posted those models on FB.

Petrie

(<-- actual, intended use of Mr. Green)

Make one little insinuation and Ed makes his post count grow overnight, nearly doubling it in size.

Showoff.

Petrie

Love the image, Ali.

Kirsten, do you or D have a family history involving twins?

Petrie

We can get Jason Segel to help!

Oh Em Gee, yes!!

Petrie

"What's so great about Chicago?"
So I was just wondering...

You really should have expected that.

Come visit me and I will show you. According to Josh, I'm a decently enthusiastic tour guide. I took that to mean good things at the time.

Petrie

You've heard my attempts at singing, right?

Though knowing how Ed feels about musicals is almost enough to convince me to give it a shot anyway.

Petrie

I could probably get us back through the hills -> women part but I'll need an Ed and Alea puppet to do it. Reenacting conversations without visual aids just seems silly and pointless.

Petrie

Chaos Walking, by Patrick Ness. Not sure on the technical term but the style of the prose (dialect?) might drive you crazy at first but if you can get past that, it is one of the best trilogies I've ever read, hands down. I can't remember if they say if it's a post-apocalyptic or extinction event bu...

Petrie

Congratulations, Kelly! :)

Petrie

Thanks. *hugs Steph* She's not blind, she just thinks cruelty and honesty are the same and feels like it's necessary to tell me more than once when I heard her the first one hundred times. Honestly, what does she expect me to do? I can't change my face (barring surgery). Bah. Ruined my whole day. I ...

Petrie

Huh. I prefer salads made from iceberg. Romaine is so blegh to me and I don't pay attention enough to know about other kinds.

Petrie

To say reaching the kids at my branch (for reading related purposes) is a challenge is sugar-coating it. The parents who even bother to show up with their kids largely herd them over to the DVDs, grab the max, and then leave. The kids who are there alone (most of them, neighborhood kids typically th...

Petrie

I won't take anything less than tree fiddy.
