I have no idea what your icon is doing, but it amuses me.

Um, thanks. I think.

*can't tell if that's a compliment*

Definitely a compliment (with text, isn't it funny how you can't tell what people mean sometimes?)

*gacks your movie meme and runs away*

Sure, I like making new friends, but I'm warning you now, I'm boring!

I'm a newbie to your wonderful journal. I came here because my friend told me I must read the PoA 15 min which was brilliantly funny. I just wanted to add myself to your thousand long list of admirers and throw myself shamelessly at your feet.
(I'm expecting a CLEO: ... at this point)
But anyway, to sum up: Ally= new and will return, Cleo= is very funny and probably thinks Ally= nutcase. Have a wonderful day!

No, you haven't... but can I say that you rise in my estimation and admiration for knowing the proper spelling of "y'all"?

That is a damn fine rooster story, and beautifully told.

When I first moved to Manhattan I lived on the 9th floor of a building and woke up every morning to the sound of a rooster crowing outside my windows. This, I thought to myself, is surely not usual for New York City. Surely not.

It drove me nuts for weeks (or rather, I was pretty sure that it was a sign that something *else* had already driven me nuts). The cat was freakin out too. Eventually I figured out that the super kept fighting cocks on the roof.

I now realize that what is missing from this story is pomeranians.

Oh, misspellings of "y'all" are a huuuuuge pet peeve with me. People! It's "you'all." It's not "ya'll" or "yal'l" or "y'a'l'l" or anything else pulled out of your ass, thank you muchly.

Amen. I'm a damnyankee and I realize this. But, oh, trying to correct folks on it... hooo doggie.

Hah! My dog (a carin terrier) was attacked by a rooster once. As ferocious as Archie (now, sadly, departed) was, this rooster was mean. Gotta respect the little buggers; they've got balls. Or, whatever roosters have. They have 'em.

Ahhhh! That was hilarious, but that right there has *got* to be one of my favorite lines.

I think that just made my day.

Congrats on knowing how to spell "y'all." I sometimes try to figure out why people are dumb and can't figure it out. Then I give up.

Dear Lord, someone who's like me on this one. I live in KENTUCKY, the birthplace of the freakin word and still people won't get it right.

If, by the time I die, I have helped make the correct spelling more prevalent, I will consider it a life well-lived. ;)
