This actually fits, because today I taught a lesson on misleading word problems. For example:

@JenniferS has 24 copies of Sharknado. She was jealous because she had 6 fewer copies than PUSH. How many copies does PUSH have?

3rd graders see the word fewer and assume you must subtract: 24-6=18 copies of Sharknado.

When in reality you must add: 24+6=30 copies of Sharknado.

When you're the leader, you don't have to follow.

@PUSH has 30?

Golly, that must be every copy ever sold!

Man, am I glad you spelled that out. I might have believed that PUSH only had 18 copies of Sharknado and then subsequently felt that he was a loser. I guess we dodged that bullet.

DW came home last night and discovered our garage smelling of gasoline. I searched for the issue everywhere, cars and all the lawn equipment. I discovered there was the smallest leak on my weed whacker that was causing quite the smell. I put it out back as it was late at night and couldn't really determine the source. Going to look at it sometime today so see if I can find the issue. Bottom line, I hope it doesn't cause a fortune if it needs maintenance.
If a weed whacker costs a fortune to fix, then it's time for a new weed whacker.,

Why is it that we can say whack but we can't say k nob?

That would be because you can whack a body part, but, it can't be a body part. Besides, it's British... who knows what they are saying anyway. ;)

Just heard that someone found a bullet of an AK-47 sitting outside the building in question from yesterday. Some think it was just a planted bullet, but I don't like it.

Hubby and I were fooling around on the stairs (in a goofing off sense, not a making out sense) and he zigged when I zagged.

This is what happens when a 250-lb oaf steps on a Princess' foot:

On the plus side, he turned his bad ankle; so we're both limping.

Just bruised or potentially worse?

And when you call him an "oaf" I picture Wandering Oaken.

Just bruised.
As you can see further up on my foot (and on every picture of my ugly hands), I am very veiny, and said veins are very close to the surface.

I often break a blood vessel in my finger just making the bed.

I don't want to intentionally insult you, but, I really would never have associated that foot with that of a princess. But, whatever works for you. ;)
