He's emulating a known radio series character of the time (1930s) - Senator Claghorn, who was prone to such phrases as "sharp as a sack full of wet mice". It is mixed up a bit with another radio show character of the times - a hard-of-hearing southern sheriff.

You should have a heart attack every time you drop an electronic device
Anything without moving parts will usually tolerate a fall, especially with the newer 'gorilla glass' surfaces. Anything with a spinning disk is in peril - hope that the drive heads were retracted or that the force vector wasn't slamming the heads down on the disk. Every year the technology does get a little more impact tolerant though, nonetheless I get a squicky feel when a $500 phone goes clatter-thunk. If your netbook hasn't been backed up, soon would be a good time, just in case.

Kids these days, I can't understand their fancy techy techno thingies. I think I had it backed up when I first got it, would I have to do it again?

You should back it up periodically if you store any documents, game-saves, web bookmarks, email addresses or the like on it. If *everything* you do is, say, using a Google app then you're probably safe because that's all stored on the Google Fortress deep in the core of the earth. At the least you should regularly back up your username personal folder to some external location (flash drive, external drive, or file backup service (like Carbonite.com)

Backing everything up because scouring the internet for all the software again would be the death of me. It's a miracle I haven't had to do this ever since I got this netbook, if it suddenly crashed I'd only have a back-up of when I first got it--in other words, the default settings.

When did you buy them? Are they in the fridge or freezer? (I hate dehydrated tofu :/) The tofu here (that comes in a giant metal can filled with water) don't last more than 5 days in the fridge. They last two decades in the freezer. They won't be any more edible than any frozen tofu.
Depends on how you eat it. If you eat with uncooked and unseasoned with your feet then yes you will pass out. Are you eating for 2 days with or without sleep? (in case you happened to have 3 fridges all completely filled with tofu) That is also likely to make you pass out. If you're eating two days of mapo tofu, you will be fine, and possibly manlier than most of the world population depending on how much peppercorn you put in them. |

I bought many types of tofu. Silken, brick, tub, firm...you choose I put some soy sauce on top of it with fried onions. Sometimes I eat it just like that. If I am not lazy, I make soup out of it or deep fry it. I am running out of ideas, to be honest. |

You should cook them instead of eating the cold soy sauce leek one (liang ban <3) 1 week is the max life span for sane tofu. (Though I think it's supposed to be like 1 and a half months, but that's including all the time it spends from the plant to your table. If the tofu is insane and born from a chinese supermarket with questionable hygiene, shelf time and open refrigeration, it's not good to eat it any more. I'm not certain but I believe tofu products get you severely sick when they spoil. It should look white as snow. Unless it's frozen, then it turns yellow and spongey like and tastes like grandma. |

It's not about the product expiration. I heard some nasty rumours about UK Border Force, so there you go....... Yup, tofu should always be white. I am a tofu expert after all! It's dirt cheap in Malaysia too, which is why I was depressed for some time after I arrived in the UK. Oh well, one must learn to adapt |

Maybe it's just me, but I can't scroll through a topic without looking at avatars, locations, ages, etc when reading a post. I'm not screening the person or anything, but it's right there next to the post that I'm reading... how can one miss it?
