a South African who happens to be good at running and has a couple of artificial limbs

I feel this way about every attempt to make differently abled athletes "inspiring." No, the fact that a guy who has 100% use of his arms, but not his legs, does wheelchair races, is not "inspiring." His arms work normally, and that's what you use to operate a wheelchair. Same with running with state-of-the-art artificial limbs. No more or less "inspiring" than other athletes. Is it inspiring when a person with glasses reads a book?

Lullaby Land -- Vampire Rodents
is this the Scaruffi equivalent of a fictitious dictionary entry?
― scarlett bohansson (unregistered), Tuesday, 25 August 2015 20:20 (eight years ago) link
edge of the ape oven off Twin Infinitives is a fucking classic! Although I probably haven't heard in over a decade.

No more two-timing, really. You guys never apologize or make up for the way you consistently bring negativity to a scene AND poison relationships. All you contribute is toxic bullshit and we get enough of that in our everyday life.
