"Quarter to three." I also find myself using top/bottom of the hour when I'm on calls with people in different time zones.

I don't get "quarter of."

For rifles, why is 30-06 odd?

Anyway, I hail from a wealthy family, and we say two aught four and nineteen aught eight. Shit like that.

the 30-06 is just derivative of the the original aught 3.

Is that a threat?

It's plausibly that it is a threat so lets just say yes.

@Bagels: My ACT math sub-score was a 21....so I will defer to you.

@Drunk Squirrel: Expect to have a week's vaccination courtesy of your threat.

@Denis: I sometimes try to speak like that, but after two minutes, I always forget.

@God: Did You mean for the dinosaurs to be The Guy on earth? You certainly gave them eery opportunity. Guess I'll find out in about 25 years. Anyway, have a good Christmas.
