I tend to ask extremely stupid questions. Yes, they're stupid because the answer is usually right in front of me 99.9% of the time! (Even if I insist, at first, that it isn't!)
One really big peeve I've realized, I dislike it when someone says something is wrong based off of the usage being uncommon. Think outside the box, and a new world of usage may surprise you! (I still haven't the faintest clue if I'm being sarcastic or not with that last bit...? Ah, yes, slightly sarcastic.) I also dislike when people suggest diminishing a nice set of vocabulary just because the words are not used often in today's time. It sickens me when I see this.
- I love to read
- I love to write
- I love music
- I love making [pointless] hobby sites
- And nothing gets between me and raspberries ;)
I've been stuck on writing three different books since I was 17. Keeping that in mind... I know, realistically, I'm probably never going to be an amazing author and will have to die with the dream of being a best-seller still in my head. Thankfully, I have this great interest in web 'design'. I hate using that word, because most people who say 'Oh yeah, I'm totally into web design', are the same people using Dreamweaver or some other WYSIWYG program instead of opening up a trusty notepad-like blank document and getting down and dirty with coding.
(Loved-ones say I'm spectacular with assumptions...)
Along with making pointless hobby sites, writing amateur poetry (out of a collection, I have only maybe about 5 that I am particularly proud of), and being sick with writers' block, I'm a huge sucker for reading and writing fanfiction. (Go figure, no writers' block there--for the most part.)
I tend to make really bad/stupid/careless jokes. (Bad having a multitude of meanings, hence dash word dash... XD)
There is more about me that I'd like to share, but I think I've blabbered long enough. You all have a great one!

What are other ways to say “virtually impossible”? 'not gonna happen'; 'not-so doable' |

Usage of the word “denominator” @J.R. I'd just like it stated that if I were taking jabs at the other answers, I'd have down-voted them. (In fact, I had up-voted Ed's because he listed a source, and left Bob alone because his answer wasn't wrong, it just wasn't all that detailed.) Anyway, again thank you. |

Usage of the word “denominator” @J.R. I said current answers. I was also implying that my answer was a crappy one. I was also implying my answer was iffy. (lame shot at being funny, I suppose) I didn't say the word other because I know that I'm not always the best at explaining things, but I thought I'd give it a shot. But thank you for possibly clearing that up. |

British English phrase “dot and carry one” +1, interesting question. I'm a bit sorry this question hasn't received more answers, preferably complete. :/ |

British English phrase “dot and carry one” While I'm sure OP is grateful for some kind of answer, I'm unsure how this "answer" answers OP's question. It doesn't explain what dot and carry one means in the context given. I find this answer to be incomplete and somewhat unsatisfactory. |

Idiom, word, or expression meaning an easy-to-do task While this is a great question, I don't see how you expect (or expected) to get a solid, definitive answer. There are many idioms that can be used for whatever you're trying to achieve. |

One word to describe the meaning of life? @BillFranke So wish I could mark that as 'best answer'. |

One word to describe the meaning of life? Why not just ask "What do you think of your life?" Destiny is a word more used when talking about the future, either personal or not. Depending on what you mean, it (destiny) might be the right word. |

“My wife and I's seafood collaboration dinner” +1 I thought it would have been incorrect as well. You wouldn't say (alone) "I's seafood" or "I seafood" (unless it was "I see food") but you'd say "My seafood platter". The 'up' was because this posed as an interesting question, regardless of what someone else would have thought as a bad one. (And I happen to like the answer that was nearly deemed unanswerable.) |

Friendlier way to express you paid for a person's drink/dinner and expect it to be paid back @DJClayworth I wish I had your friends because This one's on me implies strings attached. As in, this one is on me until I ask something of you. |
