Food amuses me. Pizza and a can of Yoohoo, specifically, are amusing me at the moment.
 
My English teach once dedicated a whole class to roasting those who did not punctuate properly. Over half the class ended up dropping out.

"I don't think he should get the job."
Meaning: Somebody else thinks he should get the job.

"I don't think he should get the job."
Meaning: It's not true that I think he should get the job.

"I don't think he should get that job."
Meaning: That's not really what I mean. OR I'm not sure he'll get that job.

"I don't think he should get that job."
Meaning: Somebody else should get that job.

"I don't think he should get that job."
Meaning: In my opinion it's wrong that he's going to get that job.

"I don't think he should get that job."
Meaning: He should have to earn (be worthy of, work hard for) that job.

"I don't think he should get that job."
Meaning: He should get another job.

"I don't think he should get that job.
Meaning: Maybe he should get something else instead.

Some people do crossword puzzles - I enjoy using my brain to amuse myself privately. Sure some call that introspect fully crazy, I just call it fun. (Notice even how I applied the last words there to over emphasis the fully introspective crazy while playing off of the word itself?) ... :cool: Smile. WAY TOO EASILY AMUSED!

Or the famous :"Let's eat Grandma!" ; vs. "Let's eat, Grandma!" That makes me laugh with no one around...

If anyone ever enters slave's mind be careful reading the signs for directions.

The book of Ruth begins with the simple statements "Now it came to pass, in the days when the judges ruled, that there was a famine in the land. And a certain man of Bethlehem, Judah, went to dwell in the country of Moab, he and his wife and his two sons. And they went to the country of Moab and remained there. That a famine was in the "house of bread," and a man named "God is my King," moved to Moab ("the people of incest") with his wife (named "pleasant") and his two sons, named "Sickly" and "Wasting away" - all of this is Dramatically Ironic. The names make the introduction Dramatic Irony...the meanings are so unexpectedly inappropriate (no bread in the house of bread, a man who is called, "my God is King" going to a neighboring pagan nation for survival) - such events are quite disconnected from what would seem appropriate.

Ok, that may qualify as Bible study tho... :confused: :rolleyes: Smile. But, that doesn't mean I am not still easily amused.

Not to mention when Jesus arose and returned by the shore to where they were fishing ... in His just founded victory I am sure Jesus was excited to tell them of His arrival, but He stands there and asks the simple equation of their fishing success. I bet He was smiling when He asked that, as they yet knew who He was. Dat Dar is funny!

clearly because twice you have talked to yourself in the last few minutes,it can be fun lol!
 
You are alone I'm just alone here too.

Well, since we are both alone do you want to share in our a-lonesomeness? Wait, wouldn't that be a clique? Maybe we should just remain in Christ and share Him together as His body? Wait, that sounds even biblical - why don't we both share that idea to even others besides ourselves, then we both will have even more friends and His will will be done? And no I didn't stutter there. Smile LOL
