I don’t understand people who don’t find farts amusing. What’s wrong with them? I snickered when I got to post a sequential thread involving the “I’m screwing this cat” thread. ---

> [@TriPolar](#): > > We used to drive a conference representative from Univ. of Regina nuts by pronouncing it as if it was pronounced like vagina. He insisted it wasn’t. Which one is it? As a proud Canadian, I pronounce Regina, the city in Saskatchewan, so it rhymes with vagina. I have never heard it said any other way. And then giggle like a schoolgirl. ---

Nobody better get within squirting distance of me when I’m watering my flowers with the hose. I will also gleefully accept a surprise squirting should one happen my way. And- My postman knows all about this. 😃 ---

I’m 41 and still have young kids - they are an endless supply of hilarity and fart jokes. My 5 year old got a magnifying glass for his birthday, first thing I tried to do with it was go outside and burn something (not ants though - those little guys work hard). The perfect afternoon snack is still a choc biscuit dunked in ice-cold milk. ---

I sometimes feed my cats [pop-rocks](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pop_Rocks). They always forgive me, but its probably because I also give them catnip just to watch them run around. ---

> [@Dr.Girlfriend](#): > > I still eat Pop-Tarts for breakfast. The sweeter the better. Duuuude(ette)! Have you tried the new Peanut Butter Pop Tarts? Mmmmm. I bought them within hours of seeing the commercial for the first time. I haven’t been that excited since I lost my virginity! Try a PB one stacked on a frosted strawberry one - instant PBJ Pop Tart! And now I hear there is a chocolate iced peanut butter variety. Off to the store I go! Who, me? I turn 50 next month, why? ---

I’ve been known to still eat Lik-M-Aid Fun Dip occasionally. With the Lik-a-Stix and everything. ---

It also wasn’t that long ago that I had a cooking moment: “If it takes 2 hours to bake at 150°, it should only take an hour at 300°. Goddamn genius.” No. ☹ ---

I ran to the store and bought the last box on the shelf. And yeah, the PB on strawberry is divine… mmm. Chocolate PB you say? I must check these out! 😃 ---

> [@elfkin477](#): > > When I discovered that one of the airport codes is CLT I also discovered I’m not quite mature enough to make travel arrangements for coworkers. I’ve flown to both Rapid City and Little Rock in the past few months (KRAP and KLIT). I got the giggles both times when talking to the controllers. 🙂 ---

I eat cake batter out of the bowl (the leftover stuff after I’ve used it for the cake.) I also eat icing and cookie dough. ---
