*/But Richard? My bet is that after a few minutes people would notice 
he was missing from the festivities. A few people would wonder where 
he went, but not many, and only for a second or two.

beaten into a bloody pulp by the people he's stalked and abused for so 
many years. /*


I suspect everyone will be as curious as me to find out what he's 
really like, he plays his cards so close to his chest it's hard to see 
the humanity beneath. Or maybe he really does only speak in one 
sentence missives with a go figure at the end. Perhaps it's a Texan 
thing we didn't know about?

discussion group? Obviously he is is mistaken - I started using that 
phrase on May 5, 2001 on Google Groups. Everyone already knows that.


Excerpt from my essay entitled Bon:/

Later, the Walla asked Dr. Moore, Professor of Psychology, if the 
so-called Manchurian Candidate, i.e. brainwashing hypothesis, was 
supported by modern social scientists, to which the doctor replied I 
haven't seen that movie yet. Go figure.

Go figure 
http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=Go%20figuredefid=7367749
A slang phrase used only in the United States of America, short for 
go and figure that out. It is typically only used in speech, and is 
an attempt to ridicule the previous thing they said. In fact, all it 
does is indicate that the person is both ignorant and stupid.


Go figure 
http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=Go%20figuredefid=3672024
A saying used when something happens that you might have expected, but 
you have absolutely nothing original or intelligent to say. Generally 
used by idiots with IQs below 85, who just want to hear them selves 
talk, and build thier own unfounded egos.

[FairfieldLife] Go figure!

2013-07-15 Thread card

Can't help feeling that 'go' in 'go figure' is
an imperative form. UD seems to support that view:

Go figure 

42 up, 126 down
When you are talking to someone and they don't understand what you're talking 
about. Or they don't know what you're talking about. You are entitled to tell 
them to go figure.
Josh: You should go listen to the White Stripes 
Amy: the Who? 
Josh: Go figure! 

LoL!
