Wait.... what's your opinion of the translation that was published contemporaneously with the original, in 1860-whatever? Seriously deficient, good enough...?

Aha! I love that episode, but evidently I don't remember it perfectly

You'll never guess under what conditions I found this post....

... I'll bite. Which one?

(If you mean the supposed Flannery O'Connor reference in Homer the vigilante, I've never been convinced by that theory)

I'm late to the comic and was wondering if anyone else had had this comment. Glad I'm not the only one (but we might be the only two....)

BTW, I have heard that the Burmese system is even more idiosyncratic. They use "miles" and "feet" and the like, but they're not always what we think they are

Oh, dang! I just did say it before seeing this!

I know, and I hate myself for what I'm about to do, but:

Dian Fossey's thing was gorillas; Goodall's thing was chimps. (The third of the "Trimates" was Birute Galdikas, and her thing was orangutans.)

Oh, man, don't tell me that! That means there ISN'T a chance I wind up together with Emma Lee Bunton?!

This is evidence of how determined and resolute you are. As for me, my to-do list has:

1. Be Baby Spice's lover
2. Get with her friends

Worst part is the weird calendar quirk that means Orkotberfest is over by the time you remember it. If you were hoping to flirt with green-skinned besnouted bar wenches in leather halters, better luck next year!

Oh god dammit!

Beat me to it!

That's just a regular good girl, with sour cream and tomatoes on top, right?

Either way, expect a difference in the college ranking of about a thousand places between Harvard and this new (cough) totally legitimate and genuine place of higher learning

Love to see my being exhausted snd broken as "restraint." Since my 20s ended, I've found the restraint to keep from drinking and dancing until 4 and challenging my friends to race up mountainsides, too! Such humility, such discretion!
