My class the other night, girl’s mobile rings, call as follows:
“No, he’s not here right now.”
“Ok, where are you?”
“Outside is a good place to be.”
“Where did you smell the gas?”

The confused affect effected by the effective (or ineffective) use of affect and effect.
Or, The elusive *ffect fu.
That is in fact written correctly.
So, how many of you have issues with this. I have a friend who is easily a genius (literally, as per IQ), and he had it wrong. I had it down once. The professor for an english class I took at university made it a point to teach it. If I remember correctly, we had random quizzes on it. I don’t even remember how he taught it to us, but I still had it figured out. That is until the genius told me I had it wrong. My first instinct is to default to his knowledge, and overall, this is the ideal choice. In fact, I’m pretty sure this is the first time I’ve been right about something he was wrong about. Lucky for me, I decided to look it up.

Intel Core 2 Duo. The world’s best acid trip.

What goes down, won't come up.
Every time I use the restroom at my school, or anywhere with the auto-flushing toilets for that matter, I’m always glad when everything that was in my pockets is still in my pockets. I’m watching it flush with the momentary power of a tiny black hole, and thinking, “Wow. It’s a good thing that the car, house, office and mailbox keys with my USB jumpdrive that are hanging precariously from my back pocket stayed hanging precariously from my back pocket.” I’ve stood up a number of times at home and realised my drivers license and credit card were on the floor. Maybe once or twice I’ve dropped my mobile.
