The "I Didn't Comment in Another Thread" Thread

This is me not responding to a the kind of response that makes me want to simply ask how they can navigate the forums given that they clearly can't read.

What did I miss before typing this time?

"Pineapple free pizza and other natural laws"

Almost went with "and other comments' but I figured the pun with topics would be better

I'm starting to think some folks want a permission slip for books:

"I'm sorry but in order to check out those books, i'll need a parent to sign this slip"

I was reading books in 4th grade that some would have deemed inappropriate for my age at that time. My mom didn't care what I was reading, she was just happy that I was reading.

If I remember right, I blew through the last book of LOTR and Of Mice and Men about a year or two after the last of my classmates were finishing up the "Sam and Ann" reading workbooks - I'd learned to read before I ever got to school by watching Sesame Street and The Electric Company.
Which made me a real pain in the <bleep> for my teachers...

They used to do book fairs at my elementary school, and even the book fair people knew better than to try to suggest I wasn't old enough to read something - my mother wasn't a small woman, and came from a Sicilian family, lol...
She was just happy I was spending too much time reading books to be out stealing the books.

I'm kind of glad I don't have kids - I'd be that parent that got arrested for punching out a teacher after they tried to turn my kid into a middle-of-the-road mush-brained drone.

"You can't excel. That would make the other kids feel bad." Public school, in most places, is like a real world "Harrison Bergeron."

"Man, I want pizza. Let's go hang out at out at Thin Crust Joe's"

A bit later...

"Dammit, this place would be so much better if it had thick crust!"

"Why is their pasta so mediocre?"

"How hard is it to offer tostadas too!"

Next week...

"Thin Crust Joe's again?"

"Sounds like a plan."

"Like we'd go anywhere else!"
