Common things. Haven't you ever read your baby book?

 

[ActuarialMadness]

No, I haven't read a baby book because I don't have a baby and don't know anyone who does. Not many single mid 20's year old men have.

 

[ActuarialMadness]

Also define "common" Food? Gas? soap? a pencil? video games? beer? cigarettes? You really should narrow that list a bit.

I believe Melissa was referring to the book in which your parents created for you, you ass.

Dude, $7-15 for a movie??? Were do you go? We pay like $4 for a mantinee (anytime before 4pm) and $8 after that. I would not pay 15 bones to see a movie, fuck that.

God damn dude, what purpose does it serve to act to arrogant and condescending all the time?

I would think it'd be obvious to such a genious as yourself that when someone is trying to create a written record of a certain date, that the "price of things" refers to the type of items that people are always buying, the prices of which fluctuate over time. Gas. Milk. Eggs. Houses. Televisions. Cars.

And the simple query "Haven't you ever read your baby book?" doesn't warrant such smugness. Just say that you haven't. You look silly when you stick your nose in the air after misunderstanding the question.
