Hi.
Today basically sucked from the first minute I got up. I got locked Inside of my house, failed an Economics test, didn't get to finish my book, got wheat paste dumped on my hand, and have a bad headache. A person can only endure so much in one day! Well, at least I'm now among friends (meaning on this forum).

If you haven't guessed as much, I used to be Artemis around these parts.

Jambo! Now ya can't say Fullmetal Alchemist never did anythin' for the peoples - it was the source of my success on a recent chemistry test.
Well, kind of. I... DID burst out laughing when I read the question involving the Law of Conservation of Mass... and when I saw the formula 'F=ma' on the board... And when trying to read The Scarlet Letter in English class when the guy Hester cheated on was talking about alchemy... BUT! I got a 96 on the chemistry test! The second highest grade was an 86! It's all easy stuff when you can remember the Law of Conservation of Mass as Equivalent Exchange, Mercury as what killed Envy the first time, ethanol as... well, you get the idea.

"Irregardless" and "Over exaggerated" are NEVER CORRECT EVER because they are redundant
Regardless means "without regard", and adding "ir" on the front actually makes it a double negative; exaggerate means "to overstate" so you're literally saying "over overstate."
Example: I can not exaggerate the importance of this fact enough, regardless of how often people ignore it.
