Is it bad if I laughed on reading that… and I’m not a lawyer?

Actually to keep an exroomie from using my herbs and spices I labeled the bottles with the botanical name in latin. Not that I wanted to keep her from cooking, but she would use the same spoon to dip out the spices and to stir the pot, and not wash and dry the spoon between dips.

Ah. My Modern Irish isn’t so good. (Old Irish íar, for, and ar all become Mod. Ir. ar.) At any rate, Regaid ar laa.
Ha, I’ll bet you don’t even speak Swiss!
Not just plain Swiss: remember their recruiting slogan:
“Adventure, Danger, Romansch”
Kill him before he summons the prententious beast!
Antediluvian
Unca diluvian
All the little diluvians.
Hey, you just made me shit my pants!
