I dunno if that would work. I think he has come to see me as "The man" and he ain't gonna let the man beat him. So the Spam thing was his way of maintaining control. "Ain't nobody gonna tell me what kind of pigmeat I'm gonna be eating" I've never actually heard him say ain't.
His grammar correctness would put Ali and Maryte to shame.
edit- I should edit that to "grammatical correctness" but the I'd be letting "the man" beat me.
Oh shit, it's hereditary.

Roots around in the pantry and opens a can of Spam. Nitrate dependency.

Why does it say "sometimes"? It's Bill and Rebecca giving us the benefit of the doubt, whether we deserve it or not.

Yeah, I'm looking for work, but I've got a peculiar skill set and some things I'm not willing to compromise on. I do a lot of local netowrking, and I hope some day it will help me score some meaningful paid work.
