Kathy's Scottish radio station has been playing a football (soccer) match all day today. This gives Kathy the perfect opportunity to bring up hockey and how the Ducks are in the playoffs for the Stanley cup. She proceeds to discuss this with herself (since I am not responding) for an hour. Finally, she says "I don't like hockey as much as I like football. By football, I mean "soccer", of course, since that is what Americans call it."
Now she's not American? What the fuck? She spent an hour boring me to death about hockey and she doesn't even like it? What the fuck? She calls "soccer" "football"? WHAT. THE. FUCK?!?!? |

If you say amok (note spelling!) often enough, it loses all meaning. This is my favorite linguistic concept. It's called 'semantic saturation'. Surprisingly, it doesn't work for "fuck." Or I have never hit "often enough".
Well, actually, today's semantic saturation word was "game". I was looking up the rules for baseball (another Wrong!Kathy situation) and I typed in "game" and it gave me back eleventy billion results. After reading the word "game" enough times, it lost total and complete meaning to me and I couldn't figure out what it was. |

On an up note, I went shopping on amazon.com today. Not like I have any money to buy anything, but it was fun to add to my +300 item wish list for when I become rich. I like how Amazon.com specify that you can get "Clean Underwear from Amazon's Target Store". I suppose for dirty underwear, you need to go to Amazon's Fetish Store.
I also bought Buffy Season 7 VCD for $30. Yay! Much cheaper than it sold on ebay. Actually, it didn't sell on ebay because the finale hasn't come out yet and so it was going against copyright laws or something. But the Angel Season 4 VCDs sold for $156. I'm getting those for much cheaper as well. |
