Oh no! I thought were were supposed to move the clock forward an hour over the weekend. Instead, someone accidentally moved it back....... A thousand years.
Many people should make sure they're talking with an appropriate filter attached between the word-making grey lump in their head and the word-spewing black hole on their face. There are very many attractive models of filters, easily interchangeable. One for polite society, one for not-so-polite society, one for the guys down at the pub, one for the parents, one for the in-laws, on for politicians, etc., etc...
But the saddest, saddest moments happen when someone forgets to put one in at all. Then, "HELLO, Everything you never wanted to know about what I randomly think." If their grey lump is still functioning okay and just missing a filter, they'll usually be nice enough to present their thoughts in paragraph form (mostly). It's when the grey lump's a little, well, in less than optimal condition, you get, "I R tAlKIN liKe, uH, MEEZ. CuZ IM RIGHT, biTchEs. l8r."
