But some are decent, and some are very cool :-)

Good Quote from Austen
You know the story of Emma, right?
She tried to set up an innocent young friend with a man she thought was admirable, but it turns out Mr. Elton thinks very highly of himself and wants a trophy wife.
When Mr. Elton returns home with an obnoxious new bride, Emma muses:
I like that! I can also think of a person or two whom I wish very well at a distance of twenty miles! Or better, make that 200 miles, to be comparable with today’s sense of distances 🙂

When Mr. Elton returns home with an obnoxious new bride, Emma muses:
She was, in fact, beginning very much to wonder that she had ever thought him pleasing at all; and his sight was so inseparably connected with some very disagreeable feelings, that, except in a moral light, as a penance, a lesson, a source of profitable humiliation to her own mind, she would have been thankful to be assured of never seeing him again. She wished him very well; but he gave her pain, and his welfare twenty miles off would administer most satisfaction.

What an adorable error message

Explanation
It's clever, but not polite! I don't usually say that word.I can't think about "rat" without "patootie" (remember that line in Ratatouille?) so there you go.
"Do I Look Like I Give A Rat's Patootie?"
Of course Dilligara was taken, but I only checked out of curiosity. I really didn't want it.
This is cuter!
Simple Roman Attire
From a homeschool catalog a friend gave me. Why? So we can learn that they wore Spider-Man t-shirts in Roman times, of course. My LOL for the day! Why didn’t the kid just take his t-shirt off? His bare chest under there would have been authentic 😀
