I love how funny language can sound.
April 25, 2017 at 6:19 am
I was just watching the morning weather and the lady said, because we had lots of rain last night, said "Standing water"
Yea yea yea, I know, but still, I don't know about anyone else, but I have never seen "standing water". I think if you see "standing water", you need to stop smoking, injecting whatever, and or get your meds adjusted.

Insurance companies sometimes differentiate between "standing water" and "running water". Basically, a flood or accumulation of rain will be deemed "standing water" and a broken main or pipe will be deemed "running water".

It's the humor section silly. Water doesn't have legs so it cannot stand or run.
If you see "running water" you might have the same issues.
Lots of people use metaphor I like semi 4. Not exactly 4 but similar to 4.

You can't fly to crazy, you have to be driven there . . . .
The granting of a pardon is an imputation of guilt, and the acceptance a confession of it.

Lucky for humanity I like shiny objects, and ABBA.

Personification is pretty funny if you stop and think about it I agree.

Also if your signature makes my scrolling mess up "you're tacky and I hate you."
