Most strained analogy ever?

Perfect as the wing of a bird may be, it will never enable the bird to fly if unsupported by the air. Facts are the air of science. Without them a man of science can never rise.

What can I say? Woof!

Facts of science: that's why the politics of climate change is so unfortunate.

Eo, I think you're a little ruff!
Maybe you're barking up the wrong tree here. This sounds a bit dogmatix from you. You'd better neuter your tone, no?
Granted, a celebrity like Pavlov is a tough bone to chew.
Doggone it, I'd hate to poop on your party, but maybe we should paws, sit, and think this role over.
You know, take a walk before unleashing the hounds of war. In hopes this tail ends well.
Time to take a bow? Wow, I hadn't realized it was so late! I'd better flea now. I wouldn't want to sound snoopy, or look like I'm bitching.

[Say, Bruce, I think I can make out some classified information on that monitor in your avatar photo.]

I better not ever make a post ending with "moo", you'll be milking that one forever.

BTW, Pascal...I think there's another one: "roll" vs. "role" :-)

Funny koinkidink, yesterday I had to correct a letter for the Domai newsletter, the guy consistent used "role" for "roll of film".

People [drive me crazy by] consistently applying the incorrect usage of the words "their," "there," and "they're," as well as "to," and "too"...also. Thankfully, "too," "two" doesn't get used incorrectly "too" often! lol! ;-)

Oh what to "due"/"dew"/"do"?! English lessons have all become "doo-doo" to our society! lol! :-(

captcha: cilye (looks like a new way of saying...and spelling "silly" to me! ;-)

captcha: ophous (is that British for office?! ;-)

Consistently. Mind yer flamin' language!

"ophous"? Oh, polize! Your jokes will make me uffish, you manxome vixine womgirl! (Read Lewis Carroll: "uffish" IS a proper English word.)
I'd better galoomph back home before I get all mimsy and frumious in this vorpal wabe. ;-)

Woid verif for my scrabblings: "gratifis"

P.S.: "milking that one forever"? No (milky) way! I'm not one to make horny jokes, that's just bull.
Calf-ful there! Hoof would ever believe that rumour you stamped(e) on me? Leather be known it's snout what it sounds like! Ox-kay?
Raah, now I'm sour from your cheesy insinuations. I'll just go ruminating my resentment olé-lone, sitting or rock four.
There's rooooom for company, in case there are TRUE friends around! (snort)
Besides, the grass looks greener over there.

I udder get outta here, myself! lol!
