The other day I sent a text message to one of those tv commercials-- the one that sends you daily jokes. Biggest mistake of my life, I don't know what I was thinking and I don't know how to undo it.
Probably. I don't know what to do though.

Now bio is a big eww. I hate bio.
Those jokes things are expensive. See what happens if you send STOP to the same number. That might work.
I loved my senior Bio class.
Thanks, Fiction. I actually just got off the phone with Verizon, and that's what they told me to do and it worked.

I feel the need to share this with someone.
America was originally discovered by Amerigo Vespucci so America should really be called Vespucciland
er, actually America was first discovered by the Vikings
so really we should be named....

Have you guys heard of the Pandora music generator website? Well, my friend reminded me about it, and now I've been playing around on it for 2 hours.

oh lord, jlc...obsessed a bit?
I don't like listening to 10 songs at the same time.
Haha, you didn't do it right!
And if it's brilliant enough to amuse me for two hours, then it has to be good.

Vespucci didn't discover America, he just wrote about it while he was on a ship that sailed in the general area.
The viking who first found our beloved continent was Lief Erickson. However, vikings do not write our history textbooks so that will be continually credited to Mr. Columbus-- or if you want to use his real, non-anglicized name, Cristobal Colon with an accent on the second O.
Or as John Stewart and the Daily Show people once described it on a timeline in their book, "1492: America discovers white people".

Hahaha.
And yes SweetQ, I am special, but I'm okay with that.
ETA: I was walking down the street at like 2 a.m. the other night...and some random guy said "Hey beautfiul. You know what, I built this country so that people could walk around!" So that's the guy who really built America.

Guess what?!?!
I'm more special that you are. So there! *sticks tongue out!*

Should that be "non-anglicized" or "unanglicized"? I trust the grammar geeks of bww.
I'm glad you were amused, jlc.
I'm guessing "non-anglicized," but I'm not a grammar nazi...just a journalism student.
I thougth Vespucci was the cartographer who first mapped America.. and then stuck his name on it?
I thought it was named after him? Amerigo (?) Vespucci?

Non-anglicized it is.
"Un" is typically used with things that are being undone and "non" is for things that never were. Cristobal Colon was never REALLY Christopher Columbus, but everyone acts like it, so the situation is sort of between those two.
Fiction, I think you might be right.
Wow, the dinner theater I'm in for the summer was just cancelled. *cries hysterically*
