Pearl of Wisdom from the Birthday Girl

iPayTooMuchForMyHair, as she turns 23:
So this is what it feels like to turn 16 for the 9th time...

No, wait, 7th.

Ezzie (counting on his fingers just to check): 8th.

iPay: Oh.

  5. Ouch? No, no ouch! There was no ouch!
    That, that was a compliment...yeah, that's what it was, a compliment.

    You see at first your nature is to over estimate payment in favor of another at your own expense, this is truly the mark of a giving person.
    However, when it is pointed out that the original calculation (which was only made in the first place for the benefit of the party of the second part) was in error you again miscalculate so as to provide the other person the opportunity to confirm the proper calculation thereby promoting a feeling of positive self worth in that person (the party of the second part, for those following at home). You do this all so that those who may not come by these opportunities to flex their mathematical prowess all that often (y'know, the kind of people who do "counting on his fingers") may be afforded this chance.

    --also there was a smiley face :-)

  7. I should note that your new "G" is in lower-case. You may want to fix that. :)

  9. I will now note, to answer the questioning... um, questions of people such as The Apple and G and iPay, that I counted on my fingers to further mock iPay in front of her. Mean? Yes. Even funnier? Hell yeah.

  10. Apologies, it was certainly not intentional to give your name a yeridah. I was merely typing what I saw.

    I thank you for attempting to pull your foot out from alll the way down your throat. I think you may have saved it just in time.

    We can call it even somewhere in the middle of me being nice and trying to boost Ezzie's ego (yeah right!!!) and my sheer and utter exhaustion on this birthday that has not been one of the greatest yet. But thank G-d there are many more years (iy"H) to improve on that.

    Yeah, well...two older sisters will make a guy quick on his foot.

  12. LOL especially *those* two... not to mention your brothers, your father, your brother-in-law, and your next-door neighbors. (Well, your old next-door neighbors.)

  13. Aren't you all accountants? Counting on your fingers? Stay away from my taxes...

  14. Happy Birthday! It might be simpler to change to 21b. Why would you still want to be 16- what a terrible age:P

  15. LOL especially *those* two...

    Hey, are we mocking the sisters? Neither of them even know what a blog is so I guess I'll have to defend their honor ;)
