Beat this... Every other letter is an "A"!

Aww, don’t feel so bad Lectricity, we all know you meant to say “DAB” instead of “BAD”. And hey, that’s still a word. Don’t fret! We’ll just forget this little incident…

Aha! Ana eat a man (dad). A Canabal!

(I’m taking some artistic license with spelling.)

Alternating a’s. An acceptable, albeit alien, artistic accomplishment. Almost as attainable, afterwards, as allitteration.

Ahem. Absent alliteration, assonance.

I admit that I can’t spell letter but every 3rd letter in
BAD BAD BAD BAD BAD BAD BAD BAD!!!
ia a D.

How do you get ‘a’?

d (the d is not part of the response, just how I sign these things.)

Sure, rub it in.

Every 6th letter is a ‘k’. Beat that.

And now, Nikolai Volkoff will sing the Russian national anthem…

I hardly think that’s necessary.

It’s truly amazing, the amount of time and effort I can spend procrastinating sometimes. Now I’ll get back to work.

Ooh, wait-I forgot “sax” and…oh, never mind.

I hope this post isn’t a threadkiller.

I don’t know what’s wrong with me sometimes. I swear…

With much thanks to Dr_Paprika and Scribble…

Nana Rabat AKA Tamara saw an Alabama banana man at a Canada cabana. Yay!!!

Now I would sure like to meet this Alabama banana man. He sure seems to get around.

I remember the time my Grandmother, Tamara Rabat, told me about how her friend Asa Smith, who was an tropical fruit expert vacationing on the Gulf Coast, became annoyed at their waitress Sara Jones, a Caribbean immigrant, who refused to reheat his appetizers in the microwave.

In other words:

Nana Rabat aka Tamara saw a Bahama Mama, Sara, zap a banana data man, Asa, nada tapas at an Alabama cabana bar.

Little Nimo, I’m speechless.

Alana: Gah!

Ava: Alana saw a fat rat?
Sara: Alaska.
