Funny that the double name comes up

In Reply to: Say what, in the south we have double - Junie
I was going to add that to my original post, as both of her girls have double names. So, for the third girl, she wants to keep it the same. They have kind of given up on that tho, since they haven't been successful at finding anything. Thanks a bunch!!!

A double duh here
I was answering the post above me when they said Merck would benefit off these injections. Yes, I said, that is what most pharmaceutical companies are in the business for. I use medications, my husband does, my whole family does. I really don’t understand what you are trying to say?? This in no way will effect me whether it is mandatory or not.
Double Yea to Andy!
Good for him! Good for you!
I will not tell you what my first thought was when you wrote "detasseling", but I can assure you it had nothing to do with corn!
My son is a college student. He has a job on campus. I pay the college bills he pays for whatever he needs while at school. This is his 2nd year and so far so good - he's never asked me for money. He was home on break a few weeks ago and was so excited to show me this t-shirt he bought at a Goodwill store. It was black with a very large photo of Michael Bolton on it. He thought it was a riot, and so didn't I because we both have a warped sense of humor. He is a very preppy-looking kid, usually wears a white t-shirt with an opened collared shirt over it, nice jeans, clean-cut, short hair. The Michael Bolton t-shirt is SO unlike him. He's now looking for a shirt with David Hasselhoff on it. You will may be entertained by what your son buys.
Enjoy these years, they are THE best!
Thanks. I will be sure to double check this. nm

Say what, in the south we have double
names for males also, since when did you think it stopped at females?
double standard
Men have been doing it for centuries....marrying and/or keeping mistresses about 15-20 years younger and nothing is said about it, other than "You lucky dog."
Why is it so frowned upon in society for women to consider the same option?
Ditto and NEVER again. I'd rather pay double! lol
Amazing what some people will do to save a buck.
Oh no, we're going to H E double L!
Are you even capable of making a point without the scare tactics? And you wonder why bible thumpers like you are laughed at.
It is considered a double negative, sm
and not standardly use. Use "regardless", or "irrespective". It is considered bad grammar.
According to Wikipedia, double-wides just
depreciate more slowly than single-wides:
"Others have strongly limited or forbidden all single-wide models, which tend to depreciate in value more rapidly than modern double-wide models."
And modern double-wides depreciate less quickly than older double-wides:
"Newer manufactured homes, particularly double-wides, tend to be built to much higher standards than their predecessors and meet the building codes applicable to most areas. This has led to a reduction in the rate of value depreciation of most used units."
Unfortunately that's still losing money instead of making it.
I had a mouse get in my double oven many
years ago and get electrocuted on the wiring. Needless to say the kitchen smelled like something dead for DAYS. I tore the room apart and never found it. When we took the front electrical panel off 3 months later to replace a report, there it was! Looked like it was crucifed. All bones and they all fell out all over the stove. Yuk.
I double lock the door and have a
security latch as there's been a lot of break-ins at gun point lately. We live in an apt and since I work overnight I've actually had people that thought my door was their door and tried to unlock it...drunk ones, of course.
I've thought about leaving my keys in the car and the windowns down (1999 car with 137,000 miles on it)....JOKING.
Are we going to h-e-double-hockeysticks in a handbasket or what? NM

You're so funny!!! That's what I wanted - funny redneck stories
Just kinda tired of my house looking like Sanford and Son - LOL!
Please forgive the double post. Wise NM

modular/manufactured (double) are built the same
the modular comes in sections, the manufactured comes in halves. The specifics are the same.
Just chop it and double bag it in the freezer. You'll be

I'm short so I always have to pull my straps double all the way
I get mine at Walmart and Target. but I was thinking maybe if I get a few good bras they would stay. So I went to VS and holy moly...$50 bucks for a bra? I'll stick with my slippin straps!
You can buy a single/double burner at lab supply - sm
or jewerly supply places for about $30. We (jewelers) use it to heat up pickle solution (cleans the metal after soldering). I bought might from a place called Rio Grande, big jeweler supplier. You can probably find one used on ebay or craigs list though.
My company pays double time, so I work
4 hours spread out through the day on those days, maybe a few in the morning and then a few at the end of the day. There is never a shortage of people wanting to make double time on these days. At the places I have previously worked, we did an every-other-year thing for both these holidays unless people didn't want to work them, and nobody was forced to. If you don't want to work a certain day for religious beliefs, you should state this up front, otherwise ask them their policy and whether or not that is something that would work for you. You always have a choice not to take that position.
I remember when Nancy Reagan had a double mastectomy
and if I remember correctly, she was only diagnosed with it in 1 side. Not that you have cancer but I remember thinking and talking about her at that time I thought have a bilateral mastectomy was the way I would do in case of this ever happening, plus as aggressive chemo and whatever. Up to now, no further problem with her and I thought she made the right decision, just to be rid of the concern about the other breast eventually having to go back again. By the way, had hysterectomy, not for tumor but unending bleeding and probably best thing I ever did, vaginal route, really no down time, no pain (unlike before). Good luck with your decision.
Separate bathrooms would definitely be great, or 1 huge one. Nix to the double

I wear Bali double lift bra. I know Penneys SM
has a large selection of all size bras and even have professional fitters come in a couple of times a year.
Looking at holiday pics, I am so disappointed in my double chin. sm
Any ideas how to get rid of this fat bag around my chin/neck area? Do you just have to lose a lot of weight for it to decrease? I am obese at 180 lbs, 5Ɗ". But boy it just looks horrible in pics. It bothers me more than the actual overall weight does. Guess diet is in for my New Years's resolutions........
Oh, and double check which side you are supposed to sleep on (sm)
I think it is your right side. I slept on the opposite side from the correct one but can't remember which is which...one side will help your body filter out toxins and the other side makes it harder.
Doesn't she still live in that trailer? Or has she graduated to a double wide? lol

That is too funny... I'm sure it wasn't funny at the time.

Funny looking Bob with the funny looking wife
I just love girl double names. Hon, my son is Jon Thomas. Not Jon. Not Thomas, so I know. nm

I get frustrated by the double standard they use when judging people. They let certain people go sa
What do you think about the voting process?
Thats funny!! Thanx

too funny !!!
It's funny that you say this...
about "sounding rude". I wonder how much time your in laws and family members actually put into their decision before asking you to care for their mother? I wonder if it has even occurred to them that they are being rude to even consider asking this of you when there are professionals who can do this and should do this for their mother?
Believe me, you have no idea how much of yourself you actually lose when thrown into a situation that's convenient for everyone else. Believe me, everyone else has figured out how to say "no" by passing the responsibility on to you so that they can continue their lives without being inconvenienced.
However, you're right in being polite; however, you can still say "no" and not be rude. Don't feel guilty either for not playing the martyr.
This is so funny!!! LOL!!
I have an 18-year-old son who LOVES to be on the computer doing the instant message thing. He knows all the lingo, codes, blah blah blah. Well, he is not used to the Short Hand being on on my computer, but sometimes he uses my computer when I am not working. Can you see where I am going with this?
Anyway, he (and probably a dozen other of his buddies) were instant messaging each other on line. So my son needs to go do something and he just typed BRB for "be right back." He jumped up and did not see this expand to BRIGHT RED BLOOD.
LOLOL. Frantically, word travelled through cyberspace that something must have happened because he just typed in bright red blood and left. When he finally went back to his screen he had all these worried messages...are you all right? what happened??? are you alive???
I got the best laugh out of that! He had to explain to everyone who had "heard" just what had happened and now he is much more careful.
How funny - if he
had put that in on my computer it would be "bright red blood per rectum" Not a great idea!
Oh, that's funny!
That must be the game system that I have heard talked about and someone laughingly said that this game would actually give you carpal tunnel, pulled muscles, etc.

Funny...

How funny!
Gave me a good laugh, which I needed! Thanks.
Funny too how you can think that you like
they have made here, and then all of the sudden realize they are not as nice as they seem by other posts that they make.
funny
Born and bred Texas, but never heard that before - i'm trying to figure out if it could be a compliment ???
This is funny because.....
I grew up with these sayings and use these all the time in my everyday talking without thinking about it. Hubby comes to me all the time when things he hears at work asking me what does this mean, such as "buying a pig in a poke", "don’t look a gift horse in the mouth", "leaving someone high and dry", so many, so little time.....I throw these around because where I came from everyone knows what they mean and we think nothing about using them. Bless his little short self he doesn’t know and I laugh when he tells me to speak "English."
LOL! Too funny . . .
When I told my son (after a couple of years of him questioning it because peers had already told him), he said, "The thing that made it most believable is that we never have a lot of money, but there is always so much cool stuff on Christmas morning!"
Too funny! >^..^<
My funny
One of my ESL doctors said the patient's lower extremities have disappeared. LOL.
That is too funny!
that was funny!...nm
nm
and that would be me...*how funny*....s/m
 And I'm a woman of my word - I never steer people wrong, rarely give unsolicited advice, and let me state it was fun emailing with you today!! *giggling*......Nice to put the people with their posts...*lol* I never put a name in but you know my name as I do yours now.
*too funny* 
Have a GREAT evening :)
OMG! That's too funny!
She's so adorable though I think I can overlook it!
Funny you should say that (sm)
We were watching the news while eating breakfast this morning and they had bad reviews of Premonition, and I told DH, "Well if they don't like it, I'll probably love it". That's what usually happens.
That is too funny, and just to think my
hubby told me just today he had to give colas up, hmmm..
Funny, my mom too!
And I have used everything else you can think of, now 40-something, and my skin looks like crap :( Gonna get me some of that miracle potion too!
