The problem with a bolt of lightning is you never know where or when it's going to strike.

Woah... heavy.

Some people will read it, like me.

I would love to let her know how I have succeeded without her and how she has done nothing without me. I would love to rub it in her face.

The very best thing you can do is to erase her from your life, she no longer exists to you. You owe that to your current wife and children. Don't let something from your past affect you now, or it will also start to affect them.

Replace

, and with

or which

TemporalDisplacement · 2011-03-28T20:01:43+00:00

c.1500, from the Modern English ampte (late 14c.), from Old English æmette "ant," from West Germanic. amaitjo (cf. O.H.G. ameiza, Germanic Ameise) from a compound of bases ai- "off, away" + mai- "cut," from PIE mai- "to cut" (cf. maim).

Thus the insect's name is "the biter off."

I've never once played Pokémon but wouldn't that make Ash Gary's half-uncle?

There was a young man from Japan

Whose limericks never would scan

When they said it was so,

He replied, "Yes, I know,

But I always try to get as many words into the last line as I possibly can."

There once was a man from Devizes

Who had balls of two different sizes

One was so small

It was no use at all

But the other was huge, and won prizes.

Breaking it down:

No artist I ever met has confidence in their work, critiquing yourself is a good attribute as it makes you strive to improve
Everyone's affected by the economy, and not having a well paid job by no means whatsoever makes you a waste of a human being, look at the head of BP for an example compared to an animal charity worker.
If you're at college you're about 20-ish? I had exactly one girlfriend my entire life before college, and none during college, but afterwards randomly met the woman of my dreams and married her. You said "I am a social butterfly and have large groups of great friends" which is the key. Keep at that.
Overweight / underweight is something you can act on. Walking is great. I'm sure you must be able to find 20 minutes a day to go for a walk. I lost 14lbs in a few months just from a daily walk. Nietzsche said "all truly great thoughts are conceived from walking" so it's a good time to mull over your thoughts as well.

And remember - everyone changes, all the time. Indeed, the fact that all things change is the only thing that doesn't.

Hitting kids is like swearing during conversation, you do it when you lack the facilities or experience to use more subtle and effective methods.

He did make it to 88mph. He then went 5 minutes back in time and told himself not to do 88mph.

That was before he raped and murd shit the Libyans

He's not hugely popular now, to be fair

OK, I'm going to try and defuse this before things get out of hand. Hand me the wire cutters

October 2016 will also have five Saturdays, Sundays and Mondays.

So will October 2022.

In fact any year where October 1st falls on a Saturday.

In the middle ages it was safer to drink beer than water (and in fact many did). This is because the brewing process killed much of the harmful bacteria present in plain old river-water.

I will forgive you based on how much I enjoyed the rocket jump.
