Thanks.
I just discovered the word of the day thread – very nice.

[xsmommy]

he rolled his eyes.

[xsmommy]

just saw you defend cavuto on the other thread, where someone likened him to ED SHULTZ??? seriously? I don’t know, I think freepers have gone insane.

I love that giant-headed nerd. Obviously they have NEVER watched his show or read his work.

[xsmommy]

and people complaining because they are loud? well I guess they wouldn’t like our family discussions about politics either, bc we can get loud too.

[xsmommy]

and just because this horks me off to no end not because I am a fan....

[secret garden]

If you haven't already seen it, I guarantee you will love the soundtrack. While we liked the movie and Jennifer Lawrence was fantastic, as always, we didn't care for The Grand Budapest Hotel nearly as much as I thought I would.

In the field of dentistry, the proverbial "4 out of 5" would be strident in advising their patients to refrain from using Trident & similar items to primarily keep teeth clean (even though it's trendy) ... Some also claim that instead of whitening, these products actually leave colored tints on the enamel, and that we should ignore all the "dirt" sent out by advertisers to promote them.

My dad’s favorite team was whoever was playing the Redskins that week.

[secret garden]

Colored tints? That post was a thing of beauty. A+ for you.

It is overcast, and distant thunder from the west-maybe we will get a little rain...

Whenever Hillary is lying
It is always loud and clear-
Her voice becomes strident,
A danger to the human ear

Limiting her responsibility
For causing any sort of ill
Goes with her legal training-
But she learned most from Bill

He remade the meaning of “is”
Hillary has a favorite stall-
Her trademark is now becoming
That she just does not recall...

[secret garden]

Very good, A+ for you. In my mind, I always thought strident had more of a positive connotation, as forward-moving, serious, etc. That’s why I chose it today, to remind me it means shrill.

[xsmommy]

we went on Christmas eve as a family to see it. It was good.

[Hegewisch Dupa]

Four out of five dentist recommend strident drill noises for their patients who deserve a good drilling.

[Texan5]

Thank you! The first time I heard that word was when my mom used it to describe an uncle’s wife who pretty much screeched about everything.

[MoochPooch]

I see Hillary is making strident sales (sarcasm):

People are strange.

And nuts

[xsmommy]

we are being tortured by the Obama regime, daily, with tales of flagrant abuse, but no, let’s take time to revisit the ROMNEY issue and rail on someone about that. seriously nuts.

[NeoCaveman]

Oh they spend all their time bitching about the GOP and actively hoping for losses. I guess they want the good old days of 2009 and 2010 back. I’m going to be strident and say f&^# ‘em.

[secret garden]

They are all frightening. A+ for scaring me to death.
