On the plus side, at least there was no chance of the cable guy falling asleep during the house call.

I think it got changed to where it now runs December-November, so the Decembers don't get lost.

Without the trailer, you'd really have no idea what this movie was about.

Typo. It was supposed to be Bridget Beardot. Bear living in the basement? What's his Fark handle.

Or, in the bear's defense someone had to sit through the 12-hour window 'til the cable guy showed up.

I've heard this story before, but usually it's a cougar in the bedroom, rather then a bear in the basement.

You just don't see the word "ambled" used enough in print. I'm going to try using it more in my daily vocabulary at work.

I used to use it in association with the fatties at Blue Cross when I worked there, when my friends and I would get together for lunch and laugh about all the weirdos at work. Stories man.....stories.

Stories? Don't even get me started about last saturday night when I hosted Scrabble night and nearly came fisticuffs with with some ancient white top bull biatch in a wheelchair over whether or not lallygag was a noun or a verb.

Officials plan to relocate the bear.

Really? So they don't plan to let the drugged bear just lay there in the residential neighborhood until it wakes up?
Thanks for the info, numbnuts...

In the bear's defense, I'd like to point out that after the cable guy didn't show up during the 9-noon window or bother calling, the bear thought it would be cool if he just went to sleep.

Is lallygag idjit for lollygag? Wait, spellcheck is telling me I'm the idjit. Google tells me they are both cromulent words, so carry on.

A: I love Scrabble! I used to have some hardcore marathon matches with a friend of mine, years ago. Just us two, so our scores would be ridiculously high. And our games would last 2-3 hours each!

B: I don't know which side I would take in that debate either. I think I would lean towards verb.

It's a noun. Notice how I'm not even flustered about you pretending to call it a verb (toy boat). The only way someone would consider lollygag a verb,, is if they either lollyed a gag or gaged on a lolly. The balls in your court. I'm ashamed.
