Why is it that every woman I see is wearing a wedding ring? Aren't there any single women left in the universe (or at the very least the area that I live in)?

I just realised I have three exams, starting 15 days from now, and I havn't even bought the books I need for studying.

Perhaps that was my role, and now my role is complete. There's a finality to it, and I'm comfortable with that. Such is life.

I'll never be done. I'm a believer in life-long learning. Not necessarily academic, though.
I was actually looking forward to the subject matter. It's about Psychophysics.

Oooooh, i will have to read some more at some point- didnt get to finish. I recognise some of the names thus far, and sound thresholds etc are something we've touched on
good luck hun!As a technical writer, there are some things that annoy the heck out of me. I supppose these things could, conceivably, annoy people who are not technical writers, but I tend to think technical writers notice these types of things more than other people.
For instance, there is a sign in the breakroom of my office that reads, and I quote,
"PLEASE"
CLEAN UP
AFTER
YOURSELF!
Thank you
Do you see what I see? First off, why is "please" in quotation marks? Are they asking please? Are they insinuating sarcastically, "please"? Why not quote the entire sign?
Why are the first four lines capitalized, but the last line not? Is "thank you" less important than the rest? Has courtesy been dropped by the wayside?
And it's written all in red. Red usually denotes danger. If one doesn't clean up after oneself, does the microwave blow up? The building collapse? The refrigerator regurgitate?
And why the exclamation point! What is there to get so excited about! Excessive use of an exclamation point nullifies the importance of an exclamation point when it is truly needed! Do you see what I mean!
Sometimes at night I dream that I am proofing a document. I dream it, as if I don't get enough of proofing during my waking hours. I wish there was a way to shut my brain off.

LIC ME CHANICS FOR FAST SERVICE
I'm still not sure what a chanic is but i was tempted to try and lick it
I dare you to walk into that garage and tell them you're there to lick the chanic.
Maybe there's a surprise at the center! Or maybe, just maybe, we'll finally found out how many licks it takes to get to the center of a ...chanic.

Personally, I'm betting that they would just smack you in the head with a wrench, but it would probablly be entertaining to watch either way.
