My grandma likes watching anime. We used to watch Samurai X together. She was about 60 at the time.

I've never quite warmed to anime. I think those big eyes just creep me out.

I always wanted to have spiky hair. Unfortunately, it started to thin before I could try it. Now I just don't have hair.

The LMBer Rockhopper Lad is covered completely with feathers. The real-life Rockhopper Lad shaves his head and has a goatee.

A girl I knew in middle school would often say "I'm ain't dumb." She never convinced me.

Maybe English wasn't her first language tongue (I'm an apologist!) A lot of international beauty pageants have that issue. Some contestants argue that they're just as intelligent as their English-speaking counterparts and shouldn't be penalized for needing an interpreter.

Everyone knows the correct phrase is, "I ain't as dumb as you think I are."

Tsk!

Acording to Wikipedia:
"Ain't was used freely by educated speakers in some geographical areas as late as the turn of the twentieth century. For Victorian English novelists William Makepeace Thackeray and Anthony Trollope the educated and upper classes in 19th century England could use ain't freely, but in familiar speech only. It continues to be in conversational use among well-educated speakers of various English dialects including Southern American English.

So there, durn it! I like it, I'm gonna use it.

It wasn't using "ain't" as such that was the problem. It was the phrase "I'm ain't", which would mean "I am am not".

She also had a crush on me and was rather obvious about it. No wonder I'm gay! wink

I expect I'd still be gay, but would have remembered her more fondly.

The I'm Ain't Girl should have tried plying me with gifts. It wouldn't have gotten her anywhere, but gifts are always nice.
