So last night I dialed 911 in my pocket.
My phone has this potentially life saving/stupid feature where the key guard applies to all numbers but 9 and 1 and then 1. So I checked up on my phone, you know, to see how it is; sometimes they need attention. It wasn't so great seeing that I had dialed "emergency" at 10:09 and then "private" called at 10:10 [first of all, 911 should not be private if 911 is calling you this should be made clear!].
I was conflicted: do I call and risk needlessly using an emergency line and getting yelled at by the operator (they must yell) or do nothing and hope that police, paramedics, and fire trucks haven't been sent to my current location?
I realized that an onslaught of emergency personnel could conflict with my contemporaneous activities of questionable legality.
Don't they yell?
them:new hampshire 911 what is your emergency?
me:hi I don't have an emergency but my phone called 911 in my pocket earlier and I think you guys called me back and I just wanted to let you know that there's no problem.
them:that's fine, no emergency, happens all the time have a nice night.
me: you too bye.
also, if you're surprised by this, you might read this.

What are people trying to say when they use more than one question mark???
I understand the multiple exclamation point thing, it conveys augmented enthusiasm for the topic at hand!!!
But question marks??
Can I add multiple periods to convey a certain message?
Oh right, those are ellipses...
What about multiple commas in the middle of a sentence,,,,you know? Like I want to separate the clauses real bad.
Is it: the more question marks, the more the question is being asked?????
Because I am really curious!!!

Drinking beer (environmentally) responsibly:
-TAP! the glasses get washed and reused, the kegs weigh less per ounce, and it tastes way better--if you can afford it.

- bottles are better than cans if made from new materials
- cans are better than bottles if they have recycled content
- cans are better than bottles if they're being shipped over long distances (less than an ounce versus 6 ounces)
- fuck green bottles; a lot of towns don't even recycle them (fuck heineken anyway)
- local brews use less energy for transportation

"Mr. Paterson, 53, is scheduled to become the state’s 55th governor on Monday. He will be the state’s first black governor, and the third black governor of any state since Reconstruction."
NYT
Will he be the country's first legally blind governor as well? Anyway who cares he seems infinitely preferable to the steely eyed white man whose wife hates him so he pays skinny women with disproportionately sized breasts large sums of cash to love him superficially for several hours and then goes and busts others for doing the same thing except for a less inflated price.
Public officials need to chill their corrupt hyprocrisy scene.
