I think life is very fair (double checks to see if @ is a vowel or not).

‘Twee’ means “Flirting with 13 year-old girls when you’re an old, old, dirty man.”

I’d give you an example, but I can’t think of any right now. 😉

_Very_ cool. Welcome to the depths, **Giraffe**.

Mind your tongue in this place though. You don’t know where some of these people have been.

Interestingly, I had a font on an older Mac computer that was called “ **Hot Buttered Giraffe** ”.

Coincidence? I think not…

Hey! I remember you!

You’re the one that said that giraffes can swim. What a guy.

Next, you’ll be saying that giraffes can moderate! :eek:

Hey, **Giraffe** , if you can stop obsessing over 13-year-old burnt toast – that’s just gotta be stale by now – how about I fix you up with a [cute little lady?](http://www.ultimateungulate.com/Images/Okapia_johnstoni/O_johnstoni1.html)

Well, I for one am glad to see they chose **Giraffe** for this job. I mean when I first heard about this they apparently were considering a wildebeest or a duiker, and I was like “Naw, that’ll never work”.
