lol just quoting randomness http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=414TmP12WAU the part i was referring to was about 1:46 in
My partner waited until after making out with me while I was sick and had a break out to tell me that he'd never had a break out of it in his life... which could very well mean he was/is(hopehopehope) one of the 20% of humanity that doesn't have Herpes Symplex One.
To his chagrin it also meant no using my mouth for other activities until the break-out goes away. XD Because while there's always the risk, it's much less significant when there isn't an actual sore in your mouth. :D
I hate them... I get them right at the base of my cheek/gums, right behind my molars. "Painless" my ass, they fucking hurt when there's saliva going over them and flesh-covered bone is rubbing against them all day long. D:

XD I didn't mean you were accusing me of lying, I was simply sharing a tale. Possibly a horror story. XD
I just meant that I wish he'd told me beforehand, because if he didn't have it beforehand and does now, I will feel awful... and since we have no way of knowing, well, I'm going to feel awful anyways. Much less chance of spreading it to the nethers if only one partner has it. >.>
Warm salt water. Salt removes bacteria and infections from wounds, helping the body to heal over quicker. The warmth in the water allows the drinker to super-saturate the beverage to a higher degree, putting more salt in the wound to cleanse it more thoroughly. Usually helps pretty darn quickly. Who needs antibiotics when you have knowledge of the world around you on hand? :D
I actually rubbed salt into some scratches my cat left on my feet the other day because I didn't have any antibacterial ointment. Washed them, rinsed them, rubbed salt in, and then patted the salt out with a cold, wet paper towel. Then bandaged them up to avoid further infection (I was wearing sandals that were rubbing up against the wounds and getting dirt in them at the time).
I learned about the useful properties of salt while on an oystering trip in the Chesapeake Bay. My counselor put meat tenderizer on my arms after I was stung by a massive jellyfish to remove the poison. After we ran out of that, we resorted to the salt stores we had on the ship. :) Still had huge red welts up and down the insides of my arms for the next couple weeks, but the salt helped a lot.

Yes, yes it is.
Of course, it amazes me how many people don't realize that there's actually a logical story behind the phrase "rubbing salt in the wound". When I told my parents what I'd done to clean out the cuts on my feet, my mother looked at me as if I were insane. And while yeah, it hurt like hell to have salt in the wounds, they cleared up and healed within the next two days after I did that.
Salt is an amazing thing to the human body. The only problem is that the average human consumes way too much sodium anymore. If we could extract that salt and use it in inexpensive household remedies, I don't think peoples' wounds would get so bad.
Though I doubt salt is strong enough for something like, say, a Black Widow bite. >.<

"So just I make this kinda karate chop gesture with my hand and put it forward. Then I cock my head to the side give you a bit of a googly eyed look that makes it appear like I'm interested and having a conversation and voila! It totally looks like I'm explaining something to you, when in fact I'm just... oh wait, I guess I sort of am."
affect* XD
Simple way to remember: The affect comes before the effect.
The prices of tea in England affect the sales of rice in Asia.
"When prices of tea in England decrease, the effect in Asia is that the sales of rice..."
(Just reading through, feel free to ignore me, NaNoWriMo has raped my brain)

Well it double-shames me because for one, I enjoy writing and find myself rather good at it, and two I used to be in a Journalism course (college) so I really ought to know these things.
Perhaps you can't relate, but there's always a word or two that I just get mixed up. Affect and effect are two of such words.

I took two years of Journalism in High School, along with Mythology, Senior Writing, British Literature, Multicultural Literature, and all the required yearly courses. XD
Nah, I can understand that. What I hate is when you come across words where you're just not sure how to spell them, or grammatical situations that are massively confusing. Ie: When referring to the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles as "Turtles/turtles" which way would you write it? Capital or no? Because if you're referring to the species, then it's lowercase, but if you're referring to the group name/title, then it's a capital... and if you're referring to both?
Yes, I actually had this dilemma when tutoring a student in ELA. XD He wrote a review on a video game as part of his homework one night and that had me incredibly confused.

Did you know...
In rhetoric, litotes is a figure of speech in which understatement is employed for rhetorical effect. It is most often used to describe the expression of an idea by a denial of its opposite, principally via double negatives. For example, rather than saying that something is attractive (or even very attractive), one might merely say it is "not unattractive."
Litotes is a form of understatement, always deliberate and with the intention of emphasis. However, the interpretation of litotes can depend on context, including cultural context. In speech, it may also depend on intonation and emphasis; for example, the phrase "not bad" can be said in such a way as to mean anything from "mediocre" to "excellent."
The use of litotes appeals specifically to certain cultures including the northern Europeans and is popular in English, Russian and French. They are features of Old English poetry and of the Icelandic sagas and are a means of much stoical restraint.
George Orwell complained about overuse of the 'not un...' construction in his essay "Politics and the English Language."

Where would they hold it? Florance is too far away and Gilder can only be accessed though boat.
I heard the Fire Swamps are cheep this time of year... well any time of year...
Oh sorry, I better be back to waging a land war in Asia over in Civ V. Its not going well. It never does for me

Because based off of stereotypical situations that would be what happens?
Problem being:
-He doesn't know where to find you
-He's a very logical guy; he'd be pissed at himself for not being able to keep me if something like that were to happen
-If he DID throw a punch it would simply solidify the desire to poof, and I would advise you to keep defense mechanisms in place. He's only a brown-belt in Karate, and he's waaaaay underweight, but still. XD
Now, if I was still with my ex from a year or so ago... yeah, you'd get the punch. Which is just irrational considering you did nothing to solicit the marriage proposal other than be awesome.

Well, since he's not smiling or giving her sly eyes, I'd say it's something intellectual. Such as talking about thier stripes or "You know, the gym is open late tonight." In which case she could be having that look on her face because she's thinking of "other" types of work outs they could do when most of the others are gone. ;3
