--- Quote from: TinPenguin on 28 Jun 2011, 03:48 ---Question: does that fire extinguisher look like it is resting on the floor to you? Because one of my first reactions was that little Jimette Junior has some impressive strength for a chiddler, to be holding a fire extinguisher up in one hand like that.

An empty extinguisher is much lighter than a full one, though.

Allow me to share that my 10-year old self once sprayed a whole kindergarten, including the teachers and their clothes, with a fire extinguisher. It went just fine. :angel:

Some people find gendered pronouns offensive :-P

:-) Well, there is the option to move over here, as the Finnish language does not have gendered pronouns. OTOH we don't have a word for 'please' either. Win some, lose some.

Did anyone else hear Tempest Bledsoe when Jim's daughter says "Okay, I totally have time to clean this up"?
NotAwesomeAnymore:
I just reread and it seems like Jim has primary custody from the way he talks despite his crappy lawyer. NOT THAT THE SYSTEM SHOULD BE UNFAIR THAT WAY, but it makes me wonder if the divorce was because his ex-wife did something crazy. She was also irresponsible enough to let her daughter walk from her house to her dad's house, when she's not supposed to.
Off-topic: I've read philosophy paper/essay things which use the genderless pronouns 'ey', 'em' and 'eir'. I would use those because I find assigning a gender awkward and the singular 'they' is wrong, but I worry about looking like a loser. Finland is so progressive.
