Fuck dude, it sure is.

(Spotted earlier. It probably wouldn’t be as funny without the repetition, but I had to laugh. ā€œChrist the Eternal High Priestā€ is right on the sign. They’re not hiding the name or anything šŸ¤”)

This one, OTOH, sounds more interesting than the actual name.

OK, make that delivery time ā€œprobably after 10 p.m.ā€ Which is fine by me.

The e-mail notification must have gone our at the same time I got a robocall with exact same message.

Mostly sharing, though, because the way their system stated the adjusted time window struck me as funny. Yes, I imagine the delivery will show up at some point after 6 p.m., considering it was already a couple of hours after that when the message went out šŸ™„

Currently trying to convince myself–not quite successfully so far–that I don’t really need to harass a sick Mr. C with trippy slowed-down ABBA. He’s asleep right now anyway, but I will probably still find it way more amusing than he does to find it waiting whenever he wakes up. 😊

(He very specifically cannot stand ABBA. They got going the year after he did, all in the Stockholm area, and won Eurovision when he was 3. They were apparently truly inescapable the whole time he was growing up. Including getting pushed a lot as this Big Swedish Success Story that young people would do well to learn from.

Yeah, I can see how someone might get completely burned out on ABBA under the circumstances. I still usually cannot resist some ribbing whenever I run across such an opportunity. Maybe not when he’s dealing with a nasty stomach bug, though. Maybe…)

Reminded by the shirt/skirt thing, I still have to giggle some at this that I ran across a while back:
http://books.google.co.uk/books?id=I957OegamHMC&pg=PA141&lpg=PA141&dq=skitters

One that struck me as kind of funny, in a ā€œfamiliar enough word that I never really thought about the etymologyā€ way. Especially since the Scots ā€œskittersā€ coming ultimately from Norse skĆ­ta somehow passes for MUCH more polite back home than saying somebody has the shits. šŸ˜‰ When that is still precisely what you’re saying.

Apparently ā€œskittersā€ is another one that made it into Geordie and Yorkshire dialects, too.

Hadn’t even thought of it in terms of the Anglo-Saxon sk->sh shift before, though I’d noticed other examples especially from Dutch.

I actually wondered about that one after following a link to ā€œInflections and putting spaces where they don’t belongā€ for modern Swedish( http://goo.gl/MpLWIk ), with ā€œSkit gottā€ vs. ā€œSkitgottā€. šŸ™‚

Reminded of this one again. Maybe my favorite borrowing.
