I am going to soooo suck on this one.
I am going to soooo suck on this one.
Actually, it’s the other way around. Going for uniqueness is a good way to find yourself in the bottom twenty-five.
(Said the man who used “cubit” as a construction-related measurement.)
by my count, Sparky812 is #50 (I think)
show off
Too late to get in I guess, but in case it isn’t:
I’m pretty sure we have 50, so I’m going to mark this closed. If someone comes up with a less-than-50 count, let me know.
I’ll get this scored this morning.
I’m still working on it - damn work keeps interrupting me!

Crap !
Knocked out of the top ten in my own feud !!!
Guess “a buttload” and a “cubic buttload” are different.
C’mon people, “Dollars” are the most important unit in construction. And hospitals measure their patients temperature in “degrees.”
As are foot, square-foot, and cubic-foot.
On the other hand, a milliliter and a cubic centimeter are the same, in a hospital or anywhere else.
and a pound is a pound the world 'round – AB
Woah! Top 10, y’all! Represent!
(Sorry. It’s my first really nice finish. Celebration is called for.)
I’m just happy that someone else answered with “Smoot”.
