shanmonster: (Spasmolytic)

Supper smells so good that I don't know how I'm refraining from yanking it from the oven. I'm making a pot roast in balsamic vinegar. I was going to make double chocolate cranberry brownies, too, but I'm a bit too lazy. So instead, I'm making plain old cranberry sauce. I like it with bread and butter. Mmm-mmm.

I'm getting overwhelming responses on my request for movie/book/music recommendations. It may take me the rest of my life to catch up with it all.

I've just been informed that Greg (of last night's chop sokky movie night) is going to knit me a uterus hat. I am inappropriately pleased!

The most recent thank you correspondance I've received is this oddity. Wee_laura from "glesga" writes,

I don't know if I'm appalled or relieved that this sort of abysmal shorthand has made it to Europe.

And now, while you still have a chance, go to eBay to bid on God sperm.

It was good. I put the roast in an oven bag with 1/4 cup balsamic vinegar, 1/4 cup white wine, and assorted herbs like rosemary, thyme, garlic, and black pepper. Succulent! And the gravy was good, too.

Oh emm eff gee, I am so irked by that outrageous mangling of my mother tongue that I can barely contain my fury long enough to type.

Yeah, I think it's the absolute worst mangling I've yet received.

You just haven't come to the right places for a serious mangling.

Hmm. I did tutor first-year English students. That's got to be close.

Mmmhhhh... may I come round for dinner? ;-) It sounds delicious! But, NO God's sperm, please! (Is there anything you can't buy at eBay??)

Of course you may! But it's one hell of a walk, don't you think?

I think I'm firmly in the "appalled" camp, even though I knew it was only a matter of time.
Is it just me, or did that particular example seem worse than usual? I'm surprised that she didn't add "j0o r teh 1337!!!11!!!!1"

Yeah, this one seemed especially bad to me, too.
