My Cage "Classics" 01/11 - 12/2009
Added 2023-07-11 11:06:26 +0000 UTCWhat is something you love to rant about? For instance, I love when I'm able to go off on how the saying "nothing rhymes with orange" is false because you only have to rhyme the last syllable. Why do I like it? I don't know.

2023-07-12 12:01:34 +0000 UTCThere's a "word" that rhymes everything...it's called Google. "sporange, the botanical structure that creates spores" " sporange, which is apparently a technical word for a spore sac, and Blorenge, a mountain in Wales." And that's not even including whatever foreign words that might rhyme. Anyway, got me to thinking, one of my favorite Steely Dan songs, My Old School, has one of the more intersting rhyme schemes, rhyming both the first and last words in each verse. "Oleanders growing outside her door Soon they're gonna be in bloom up in Annandale I can't stand her, doing what she did before Living like a gypsy queen in a fairy tale California tumbles into the sea That'll be the day I go back to Annandale Tried to warn you about Chino and Daddy Gee But I can't seem to get to you through the U.S. Mail" Rant: shopping carts. The Giant Stores near me have these cart corrals, each with three slots. The whole thing is about 8 feet wide and has one slot for small carts and two for the larger carts, clearly marked. So, why, as the slots are so close to each other, are people so lazy/stupid/rude that they cannot go that one step further and put the cart in the correct slot?? Even in the corrals that have no actual slots, people just (literally) fling them across the parking lot so that they become a tangled mess, hard to get a cart out, and harder for the cartherders to wrangle them so they can bring them back inside.
