But thought it best to say so just in case

Show some compassion people.
Or I will curse you with small and random bollards forever.
At first I thought you were saying that this maths teacher was your teacher and I began to worry about my sanity, I am sure this happened to my sister. Imagine my relief to realize you were referring to your cake contretemps. Then my horror at thinking I was making fun of your misfortune. I am many things but not a person who laughs at people falling. Even more so when pastry are involved.

I too feel strong sympathy for you SG. I'm sorry you tripped and fell in the mud and ruined the cake.

But I can't even type that sentence without almost breaking into song.

'Cause it took so long to make it,
and you'll never have that recipe again!
Oh no!

You're still making fun of me.
I am going to write a book about my traumatic experience.
And trust me, even if you are in it, I won't spell your names right.

You wouldn't scoff at James Frey, would you?

Upsetting me today: people who have never tried something because they already know it won't work, and they know this because they have 14 years of experience in never trying it. And the only thing they can think to do with this experience is to yell at people who are on the fence, because apparently it's critical that they lose all hope right here and now, before they do something rash that might accidentally improve the health of their children. Misery truly does love company.

Looks like food to me, that tail ought to yield a few pounds of meat. The skin is worth a fortune to the Italians for hand bags and shoes.

Hand snake didn't do it, but the mighty POWER SNAKE with a paddle tip got it first try.

I know one of these people. Except she doesn't yell, just moans that one might as well save energy because it's not going to work and in fact will probably have the opposite effect of whatever is hoped for.....
