I don't like the "first" thing either though.
In the Fark threads, if someone writes first in the first post, the system automatically changes the word to Boobies. Very mature, I know.

Since Dusty was manager, I sought out and purchased the exact same toothpicks he gnaws on...
...and have seen become addicted to them, they are great. I just got done chewing on one a few minutes ago.

Yeah, but
My mommy told me when I was a kid that toothpicks are gross because they work as advertised: pick food out of your teeth, which is rude where I come from.
Plus, if Dusty does it, I decry it.

Let up already.
We don’t need doubles from Theriot. We need him to get on base- which he does often.

This is why E Pat was expendable
