UNINTELLIGIBLE, that I'm telling you.

It's not easy birthing a child... It's not easy.

What are you going to do with your children? What will you give them?

Where is your husband?

"I'm not emotional about the money. But I am emotional about the fact someone laid their hands on my wife..my wife! No amount of money on God's green earth can pay for that transgression, Matthew, no. For that I want a pound of flesh."

One of the best scenes, I enjoyed this movie

IT’S NOT ‘PEEKED’ MY INTEREST

OR ‘PEAKED’

BUT PIQUED

‘PIQUED MY INTEREST’

THIS HAS BEEN A CAPSLOCK PSA

[owlbearcounter]

THIS IS ACTUALLY REALLY USEFUL THANK YOU

[ranetree]

ADDITIONALLY:

YOU ARE NOT ‘PHASED’. YOU ARE ‘FAZED.’

IF IT HAS BEEN A VERY LONG DAY, YOU ARE ‘WEARY’. IF SOMEONE IS ACTING IN A WAY THAT MAKES YOU SUSPICIOUS, YOU ARE ‘WARY’.

ALL IN ‘DUE’ TIME, NOT ‘DO’ TIME

‘PER SE’ NOT ‘PER SAY’

THANK YOU

[tassiekitty]

BALL- A FUCKING BALL

YOU CANNOT “BALL” YOUR EYES OUT

[soggywarmpockets]

AND FOR FUCK’S SAKE, IT’S NOT “SIKE”; IT’S “PSYCH”. AS IN “I PSYCHED YOU OUT”; BECAUSE YOU MOMENTARILY MADE SOMEONE BELIEVE SOMETHING THAT WASN’T TRUE.

THANK YOU.

Me realising there are some things I didn’t already know:

[inthememetime]

TO- GOING ONE PLACE TOWARDS ANOTHER

TWO- 2, A NUMBER BETWEEN 1 AND 3

[the-haiku-bot]

TOO- A DESCRIPTIVE

WORD, THE MUSIC IS TOO LOUD,

THE SHIRT IS TOO LOOSE.

Beep boop! I look for accidental haiku posts. Sometimes I mess up.

[phanboyo]

I’m gonna add

ROGUE: CRIMINAL/REBEL/VAGRANT/ETC

ROUGE: RED MAKEUP

it’s rogues gallery, guys. Not rouge gallery. You’re making me think batman has an extensive lipstick collection.

[broadminded]

If you’re talking about a weapons CACHE, it’s pronounced cash.

If you say cashay, that’s how CACHET is pronounced which means prestige and does not mean a collection of items stored together in a hidden/inaccessible place.

[therobotmonster]

NO ONE IS ‘PREJUDICE"

PEOPLE ARE “PREJUDICED”

[foreignobjecticus]

If he’s not moving, he’s STATIONARY.

If he’s a fucking space pencil, then carry on with STATIONERY.

[dduane]

If it’s wet precipitation falling out of the sky, it’s RAIN

If it’s someone ruling over people, it’s REIGN

If it’s holding back someone from (or getting someone to stop doing) something, that’s to REIN [them] IN (…as if you were using REINS on a horse)

[dduane]

(and oh yeah)

If you’re telling someone they’re going to have to reconsider an opinion or course of action, then they have ANOTHER THINK COMING

(because “another thing coming” makes no damn sense whatsoever unless they’re in some kind of monster movie, ffs)

It is “TO ALL INTENTS AND PURPOSES” and not “TO ALL INTENSIVE PURPOSES”.

November 19, 2022 - Saturday

After a year and some change I’m almost done reciting the qur’an. Reaching halfway thru the 28th juz feels like when you finally make a turn and start recognizing the roads to your house. There’s ayahs stored in brain pathways that haven’t fired for years now, crackling into life as I recite. I remember 7th grade and my friends and with each verse if I close my eyes it feels like I’m at my desk, hurriedly trying to memorize ayahs as the teacher tests another student. ‘Maybe the class will end before it’s our turn,’ I hear, followed by some stifled giggles. It feels like a different life. Like it’s someone else’s memories. And yet if I close my eyes my lips keep moving, reciting the rest of the ayahs, drawing knowledge and memories with it from deep inside a forgotten well.
