If that isn't the pot calling the kettle something or another, I don't know what is.

But don't complain that you don't understand; as Kosh says, "Understanding is a three-edged sword."

So this newbie thing.... I'm feeling left out, but I hate to draw the spotlight, so I thought I'd just add a footnote to someone-else's billing......

British expat in Michigan, 3 sprogs, one born here. Been here 5 years, feeling (and sounding) very mid-Atlantic. Professional "involved parent", would call myself a housewife but no time for housework, too busy trying to run the world.

Oh no you don't, monster. Get back over with the regulars. :lol:

regular whats?

Oh, damn, look at the time ... I have to get to Red 3! :3_eyes:

She faked it, and the rooster has no idea.

Experience

You scored 51 Danger, 63 Intrigue, 56 Romance, and 28 Material Gain! You love well, you live well, you fight for what you believe in, and you keep a clear sharp mind. Your quest is to experience all that life has to offer, to travel, to learn, to take every oppurtunity. You are a very free person, and care little for money and physical comfort. Religion might come easily to you, as might philosophy..

Ah, but you're just trying to start a bar fight ...

Between my unodenum and my triodenum.

"Underwear" is singular.

:D

And...welcome Lee.

Not to change the subject......

Then why do we refer to them as pairs?

Ha! Got you! I've run rings around you logically!

Oh....yes.....I'm sorry for the confusion. I meant with the regular contributors not with the normal people. :D

Good answers Nick!

Since I started during the dial-up years, I don't remember where I found out about it. Back then there were no hyperlinks, so the Cellar was either listed on another board or mentioned in a post.

Geez Rich, you old guys can't remember shit. :stickpoke

So that you have the rare chance to make the word oxymoron feel wanted- as in 'I haven't a single pair to wear'... that poor word gets hardly any chances at all to be in the public eye and as might be expected it becomes very depressed as a result - make an oxymoron happy, and string two contradictory words together today - let's make today the official oxymoron day from now on - put it in your diaries to be celebrated every year - SAVE THE OXYMORON! SAVE THE OXYMORON! - and remember 'an oxymoron a day... ....!?' (damn a forgotten memory, who'd have thought....!)

Because their main purpose is to hold in two testicles.

Of course, then the question becomes, how come brassieres aren't sold in pairs.http://www.cellar.org/images/smilies/rolleyes.gif

The sober answer is that
brassière is singular even in the French.
