I guess it depends on what the author is asking for. If they ask for con-crit, give it to them -you're not being nitpicky, you're helping them out. If they don't...well, if it's something that they do constantly, then I would be inclined to point it out, since they're obviously unaware of the fact that it should be "one and the same" (although, I can kind of see how people would write it out wrong, since they probably tend to say "one 'n the same"). I have the same problem, though, with seeing errors and trying to decide whether to point them out or not. A few typos I understand...a plethora of them sets my teeth on edge. My thing is "then" and "than" Ooooo that just makes me cringe every time someone mixes those up! If I gave into the urge to point out people's mistakes ("all of the sudden" is another one that I see wrong all the time), my reviews would be ridiculous.

Schlong Twat Tits Melons (why compare breasts to fruit? I just don't get it) Those are all I can think of right now without repeating previous lists. That happened to me once and I just stared at the screen for a minute, trying to figure out what was going on, and then said, "OH NO!" and closed the tab on my browser.

Oh, I agree. When I worked at a gas station years ago, we were supposed to card everyone no matter how old they were or looked. The registers force you to enter a birthday before you can ring them out. 'Course, for regulars, or people that were so obviously over 21 it was painful, we would just enter a random b-day. But company policy was that we card everyone, no matter what.

Yeah...my Dachshund, little ankle-biter that she is, can be pretty vicious when new people are around -especially guys...don't know what that's about. Anyway, I really think that she thinks she's this humongous animal that could rip your throat out...if only she could reach it

Nothing against the women in your life, but if this is the response your getting...well...I wouldn't ever tell a guy that having stomach problems, or having food poisoning, is anything like having cramps. I have a pretty high tolerance for pain, but my cramps kick my ass. There's nothing like 'em. The only time I've ever felt anything similar was when I had my appendix removed and I had air bubbles stuck in my intestines -ouchie. Not to get all cu-kid M.D. on you, but if your throwing up a lot, you really should at least try to eat something -crackers, dry toast (no butter! I know it sounds gross, but milk products tend to just make things worse). Having something in your stomach when you do puke will at least keep the stomach acid from eating up your esophagus. And keep hydrated -water, tea...not those energy drinks you're so fond of No juice either since they're acidic and just upset your stomach more. I tend to turn into Florence-freakin-Nightingale when my friends or boyfriend get sick -I can't help it. But, when I'm sick, I just want everyone to leave me alone and let me get my own chicken noodle soup, damn it! Hope you feel better soon!

That's because dogs have no concept of size -big dogs think they're lap dogs, and small dogs thing they're 500 lbs with teeth like lawnmowers, a fact, which, I find hysterical. I just can't find Chihuahuas cute...something about the way their head is shaped, or the way their eyes bug out of their heads...maybe not that, because I love Pugs...I dunno...but Chihuahuas kinda creep me out. I think I had my fill of them with those stupid Taco Bell commercials The high-pitched barking of small dogs -especially when I'm trying to sleep- really annoys me, too. I can't be a cat person, though, because I heard somewhere that, if you die, a dog -being loyal- will starve himself to death, but a cat will eat you...*shudders* Unfortunately, cats seem to know I don't like them and decide to adopt me (yeah...not the other way around...it just doesn't happen like that).

No one is going to like this response, but her asking you for your ID and refusing to sell the alcohol to your stepmom was pretty legit...I've been in her position (not at WalMart *shudders*) and I can understand her reasoning. Technically, I think, they're supposed to ask everyone with the person purchasing whatever for their IDs. I've noticed that some gas stations, even, have signs up that say if you're under 60 they'll card you. Now...the reason for her heckling you, that was bogus. I would agree with her if you looked like you're under 21, but if she was just profiling you, then, yeah, I would have asked for a manager. I had to show my ID when my roommate bought an R rated movie But I get carded for everything...

Bad guys in anime are usually just freakin' cool. They always get the neat outfits and the badass weapons... I think having been a fan means you can have an opinion. I stopped watching the Inuyasha Saga after episode forty or so, just because I got bored. And you're right -it is like Dragon Ball Z for girls...ugh, couldn't stand DBZ

I did laundry tonight and complained the whole time I did it. My trick to folding my clothes -dumping them on my unmade bed so that I have to fold them...or at least put them away (because I refuse to have clean clothes on the floor).

Yeah we had flooding...had to take a detour home tonight and one of my co-workers stayed in town with me because the road leading to her house out in the country became lost beneath a lake. Luckily we just got rain -we were sandwiched between the snowstorms to the north and the tornadoes to the south.

I think we're only supposed to get a few inches of snow tonight. But they keep saying that and all we're getting is this rain! I guess I shouldn't complain since it's staying fairly warm. Last night we had fog that was so dense you couldn't even see six feet in front of you.

Wow. Is this animosity toward Inu just because he never shows his affection for Kags? Or you just don't like him? I actually agree with you, kind of. Inu and Kags both kind of annoy me in the manga and anime. But I love them in fanfics -usually AU/AR ones. I like seeing how far their personalities can be manipulated while still keeping them in character. I think people are attracted to Sess because he's that strong silent type. I won't deny that he's damn sexy, but he's just a little too polished for my tastes. I like 'em kinda rough around the edges

Oh, me too...the whole small town/country thing...not for me. I fall asleep better hearing sirens... Talk about totally off topic

And true. I don't condone D&D, btw...but I know too many hicks to not think that's funny.

Nah, he never did...just threatened. I thought it was funny -the idea, anyways. If he had actually done it, we would have had a whole 'nuther set of issues. He had cats follow him home a few times, too. We even rescued a kitten from the wheel-well of some random car in the parking lot of the movie theater once.

Aw! Don't kick the dogs! They're just lil' guys. On the same note, an ex-boyfriend of mine used to threaten to use my Dachshund as a football because she's about that size...Wonder why we're not dating anymore

I love Malamutes, mostly because they don't have those yippy barks like most dogs. I grew up with Dachshunds, so I have a soft spot for them (not the wire-haired ones, though...they're too scraggly for me), but I mostly like big dogs. I don't like those little white dogs because they get those brown stains around their eyes after awhile and it just looks like they constantly have nasty eye-boogers -ick. I think all new born babies look like old men and aren't really that cute. At least kittens and puppies are cute when they're born...

Oh, hahaha! I didn't even think of that I thought they were made out of paper mache or something.

I'm in my twenties, but I have serious problems with people who don't want to work as hard as I do (and, really, my job just isn't that hard...usually), or do stupid shit while they're at work. I kinda got a girl fired because she decided to leave work (while on the clock!) to go over to the private terminal because a local college basketball player at the time was coming in, and she just had to see him. When I came in, everything was just chaos (she still hadn't come back by the time I got there). I kinda felt bad about telling my boss that it happened, because I just knew it was going to turn into this third grade thing where the girl would accuse me of "telling on her." And sure enough... But it just made me furious. After she was...let go...I had to work 50-60 hour weeks, or work nine days straight -but I was more than happy to do it. That kind of behavior just frustrates me. How do you get fired for being too friendly? I hope you collected unemployment for that, because I'm pretty sure that's not a valid reason to fire someone. Also, I thought employers couldn't let you go for being sick...

I think kids are kinda like cats -they seem to instinctively know that you don't care for them, or like them, and flock to you because they think it's amusing. *sigh* I've been adopted by more cats because of this.

I actually just prefer manuals, period. I get too bored driving, otherwise We used to power brake around corners in the winter (I think that's what we called it...). Anyways, you push in the clutch and pop the E-brake and fishtail around the corner. Probably not the wisest thing in the world...then again, there's not much to hit out here beside frozen cornfields in the winter... Weather update: Freezing rain tonight, at least an inch of snow, and then more rain tomorrow... Looking forward to it.

What I want to know is, what is that thing in the middle of their backs? Maybe I'm looking at the picture too hard, but it seems that there is a...knob or something between the shoulder blades of the first two... Maybe I don't even want to speculate what that's there for...

Bleh...surgery sucks no matter how minor it is. I can't sympathize with having your wisdom teeth out, since I have all four of mine still, but I had to have my appendix removed when I was fourteen or fifteen. That was the most pain I've ever been in *laughs* I get the "nice veins" comment when I donate blood because the ones on the insides of my elbow are really visible -which I'm okay with because I've heard horror stories about people having to just sit there while the nurses or doctors dig for veins *shudders*

I get that with my cousins, who are between the ages of twelve and one. Christmas was a blast this year because all of them (all ten of them ) decided I was the person to have fun with. We shoved presents to the side and used the boxes they came in to make spaceships, race cars, boats, and airplanes. The basement turned into a creepy dungeon with monsters in it, and I think that, at some point, I was a princess stuck in the "tower" upstairs that needed to be rescued. And then I got to go home
