"Every day, we would get up, floss the sheep, get undressed, worship Baal, and then beg forgiveness of the nearby villagers, and today was no exception"
"Every day we would go down to the shore to buy lollipops and feel the cool ocean breeze on our facial tentacles, and today was no exception."
Every day Rob's comments crack me up, and yesterday with the soulless eyes comment was no exception.
Every day Professor Geebie would cringe at our sentence construction, and today was no exception.
Every day I commute to work on my bike without injury. Except today.
Humiliatingly, I managed to fall down and hurt myself (not badly, split the skin on my knee) while not actually riding the stupid thing, but walking it up a flight of stairs. Feh.
You just couldn't fit in, could you, LB? Does this thread make you so angry that you had to deliberately crash your bike?
Every day the newest post refused to be ignored, and today was no accept-shun.
Every day was the exception that proved the rule, and today was no exception.
Everyday I thought "Poor LB, that must hurt", and today was the only day it made sense.
Every day of my life until now I've been under forty, and today was no exception. Tomorrow, on the other hand...
I know my system errors, and "today" is no exception.
10: If you go to sleep tonight cradling a bottle of Olde E, you might still be under forty in the morning.
Oooh! Happy birthday! Forty is a lot of spankings.
Spankings end with your thirties, young Megan. The forties signal the beginning of the canings.
"Why you dirty boy I will never cane, and tomorrow will be no exception."
I was sitting in my cubicle today, and I realized, ever since I started working, every single day of my life has been worse than the day before it. So that means that every single day that you see me, that's on the worst day of my life.
-- What about today? Is today the worst day of your life?
Yeah.
-- Wow. That's messed up.
Use of the phrase on the rise (in books).
I think someone switched my desk chair for a shittier desk chair (they all look the same, but this one appears to have no spring to hold the back in place). On the other hand, maybe I'm becoming paranoid.
17: Every day is better than the next.
20: maybe you should set the building on fire.
Dear ajay, just remember the day you were born. On that day, you were naked and screaming. Are you naked and screaming now? No. See how much better things have gotten!
23: I didn't realize that mcmanus had joined forces with the Bobs.
Are you naked and screaming now? No.
More's the pity.
Every in every way I'm getting better and better.
I'm enjoying browsing through Google books results for "and today was no exception". I call this one Btock's Nightmare.
Jesse entered the restroom and sighed with disappointment when he saw the lines for the facilities. The men's bathroom in a busy truck stop always seemed to have the longest lines, and today was no exception.
Every day we say every day we say every day we say today is no exception and today is no exception and today is no exception.
Shouldn't that be:
Every day we say every day we say every day we say today is no exception and today is no exception and today is no exception and today is no exception.
Everyday is a winding road, and "Today" is a good song by the Smashing Pumpkins.
30 and 31 should be read as though spoken by Foghorn Leghorn.
Every day we would recite all the words that can be used to denote the current day and "today" was no exception, and today was no exception.
It seems like every day at work a certain project gets more fucked up, and today was no exception.
I've called it "the doomed project" for months. When I pointed out something annoying about it to a co-worker in June, I ended the e-mail with "This is discouraging", and ever since then she has said it should be our motto. I just took a four-day weekend, and we had to get someone to fill in for me while I was gone. Over that weekend I cleaned my apartment furiously, threw up (and there's no particularly raucous story to explain it), spent half an hour waiting in line in the rain, and still consider myself luckier than my sub. Part of his responsibilities were password-protecting a document, and he suggested "frustrated tears".
There are a lot of posts to catch up with today. Must be some kind of exception.
And yet I was mocked for announcing I would be absent for a spell.
37: Tell me about it. I held off on that bugs one for hours waiting for a moment. And I still feel like a STOMPer.
36 -- I used to have a client in an attractive sounding location, but because of various circumstances that really couldn't be changed, any work for them would lead only to hopelessness and despair. Associates always thought I was joking about this when I got them involved in the various matters. Until they found out I wasn't.
Commenting on the post - yes, sometimes I do that! - I think the "does not a [something] make" construction really drives me crazy for some reason. I think there's another construction I hate even more, but I can't think of it right now, probably as a defense mechanism.
39: Oh, sorry. I'm a terribly impulsive poster. Stomp away.
