anyhoo, go to dictionary.com and type in hidey hole
9:24 am
hokie carla
but they have it hyphenated
9:24 am
hokie carla
so I guess that's why it's not in enable
9:24 am

9:48 am
hokie carla
apparently Marnie was Tippi's last time working with Hitchcock even though she owed him one more from her contract, because he sexually harassed her every day (confirmed by costars)
9:49 am

10:40 am
cybernan
looking for the es and en words
10:40 am
dcseain
diaper words confuses me. I know two, that, and a British term.
10:41 am
hokie carla
we've had them (e words) before but I wouldn't use them
10:41 am
dcseain
oh, okay, thank you.
10:41 am
hokie carla
es6 has to do with english law
10:41 am
cybernan
oh - there is a diaper word beginning with es? I thought you were talking about the di words
10:42 am
hokie carla
diaper words are di5/6, di4
10:43 am
cybernan
stats for the lone e please?
10:43 am
hokie carla
en6/7 are more chemistry
10:43 am
dcseain
more than one E, nan
10:43 am
BzznBea
es4 i think
10:44 am
hokie carla
yes, es4, which I think I said was from the other e, but it's the single e, but multiple s. 🤣
10:44 am
doseffing
agree with Bea
10:44 am
cybernan
yes - forgot that that sort of thing is considered a word
10:48 am
hurshy
i'm not sure i know american diaper slang words
10:48 am
hurshy
now all i can think of is the british ones
10:48 am
hokie carla
do you have the british singer who eminem sampled?
10:48 am
hurshy
eminem... sampled... ummmmmmm
10:49 am
hokie carla
she is similar to an extinct bird that = stupid
10:49 am
hurshy
yes, i have that then
10:50 am
hurshy
is that a word for diaper too?
10:50 am
hokie carla
then the diaper word change the last letter to sometimes vowel and then for the 5 replace sometimes vowel with equivalent
10:50 am
hurshy
ohhh i see, thanks
10:50 am
dcseain
oh, how weird, thanks.
10:51 am
hokie carla
also, there are 2 plurals for the british singer
10:51 am
hokie carla
I have def heard my mom call a diaper that and it's extremely likely I have called a diaper that
10:51 am
hurshy
ooh thanks that's my top D grey
10:52 am
hurshy
just one more D from the third row and i'll Defeat them all
10:52 am
dcseain
I don't think I've ever heard the term.
10:52 am
hokie carla
I still have 3!
10:54 am
hurshy
3 from the top?
10:55 am
hokie carla
yeah, and three from the middle row D
10:55 am
cybernan
leaving you lovely people in favour of breakfast - bbl :)
10:56 am
hurshy

10:56 am
hurshy

10:56 am
hurshy
di7 a set of furniture
10:56 am
hokie carla
these are from the middle row?
10:56 am
dcseain
I'd missed that, thanks
10:56 am

one unlikely past tense for a 6
11:00 am
hurshy

11:01 am
hurshy
aaaand i just got the other 8s, both un, also rather unlikely if you ask me
11:01 am
hokie carla

11:02 am
hurshy

11:02 am
