I agree. Pay attention. There is no reason for New Yorkers to throw rocks at Ohioinians.

He was gone when the Deputy arrived.
Sounds like a typical Villager

I'll say nothing. But open wide, I suspect there will be a few that will jump down your throat for that remark

If I remember correctly that's why they migrated from New York in the first place. They were going to settle in Philadelphia but you know how those people are. Philles are even more crazy. They were throwing sticks and stones. Always trying to be the peacemaker that's how Ben Franklin came up with one of his many sayings.

So the settlers kept going west thinking of a good name that will never hurt them.. And sure enough that got clean out to Pittsburgh and said to to the first person they ran into on the outskirts of town "Oh---Hi" and he threw a rock too and disappointed they all mumbled "Oh" and settled even more west.

Which I believe is how the state got named.

Only if you are in a different time zone.

Try some passionflower tea, it's good for anxiety.

To be honesr...he is probably a pimple faced 14 yr old living in some small town on the outskirts. This is what he does for entertainment. Ignore and he'll go away.
