3:33 am

mattygroves

I'll probably end up smacking myself with a dead fish

3:34 am

mattygroves

Thank you! Let the smacking commence

3:34 am

sprite

not really, not a common word. *grins* Unless you are japanese.

3:34 am

mattygroves

Which I am most emphatically not ;)

3:35 am

sprite

me neither! Studied it though, so somehow ed4 still rings a bell for me

3:35 am

mattygroves

I can count to 10 in Japanese. I can say yes. I can say 'no problem' and, of course, 'hello' but that's about it

3:36 am

sprite

well, you are pretty good then! And of course, in babble, the word has nothing to do with japan at all, it is some sort of corn or taro. But it is the way I remember to put it in.

3:37 am

mattygroves

Hopefully, i shall now remember it too!

3:38 am

sprite

you will! And if not, you will just ask and some willing soul will clue it

3:39 am

mattygroves

True dat! Up to anything exciting this cloudy (at least it's cloudy here) Saturday?

3:39 am

sprite

not me. I am sick as a dog. Felled by the flu. Even typing hurts, lol.

3:39 am

sprite

how about you?

3:39 am

mattygroves

Oh no! I hope you have a speedy recovery!

3:40 am

mattygroves

Nothing exciting here - I had an early start for a Saturday as the double glazing window guy came to do a minor repair...before 8am. My life is so exciting (not)! :D

3:40 am

sprite

thank you :)

3:42 am

sprite

ugh that is very early. Exciting enough for me ;)

3:55 am

fireflies. Easy peasy today. Apart from the biggies, lol, but that is normal for me. *hugs* matty, have a lovely day.

Winter is finally arriving here, and the wife and I are deep into week number two of COVID. Our lungs sound like swamp water has been pumped through them. You can hear the wheezing, whistling and crackling from across the room as we breathe. :(

6:20 am

rbud

been sick here, too, sounds similar. ((((hugs)))) to you and the ailing mrs.

Taking so much Ventolin and symbicort that I think we just paid off some pharma ceos mortgage.

6:28 am

rbud

do what you have to in order to keep on breathing, till we come out the other end! At least that's been my philosophy the last few years. I've spent a lot if time with my little nebulizer machine, it's my best friend. :\

6:30 am

crosshair

May have to look into a nebulizer.

6:33 am

rbud

a plus with those is that they not only turn the meds into a mist, but send them along with extra air. Helps a lot.

Anyone who stood outside waiting for stores to open today is crazy. It is nasty cold out.

I have never wanted anything badly enough to do Black Friday shopping.

9:52 am

BzznBea

Mr. Bea and I bought new living room furniture for each other for Christmas.

9:53 am

aslindy

20 years ago or so it was fun, stores would give away goody bags to the first few hundred customers. we would plan out which stores to hit first, go really early in the morning, shop for a while then go out for breakfast - my mom, my sisters and sisters in law and I.

10:07 am

20 years ago, there were a lot less people in this country. Now, everywhere you go is a madhouse.

10:55 am

MollyL

It sad that there are so few book stores these days.

10:57 am

medusa

first le5 please?

10:58 am

Kaplan the Magne

Cambridge used to have an uncountable amount of bookstores. Groliers, a poetry store, has been hanging on since 1927- I think. I should have bought Felmore there.

11:00 am

Kaplan the Magne

Harvard Bookstore is there, but Wordsworth, Reading International, Moor and McIntyre, Schoenhoff's foreign books and a block devoted to vintage is not there. Come get them while they're still not banned.

11:00 am

11:01 am

medusa

thank you

11:02 am

MollyL

It's not just banning. People don't read "real" books anymore. It's sad.

11:02 am

Oboequilter

Another great Cambridge book store is Porter Square Books! (1815 Mass Ave.)

11:04 am

medusa

I love a bookcase. I think its so homely. I do have an ereader but prefer a real book. Near me someone has put an old shop freezer near the train station and everyone can take books and put books in. Its all free.

4:09 pm

rururocks

4:09 pm

origami

4:10 pm

rururocks

So they believe in seconds?

4:11 pm

hurshy

be6 just always makes me think of Spock's line in Star Trek VI... "at the be6 of the Vulcan ambassador, i opened a dialogue with Chancellor Gorkon"

4:13 pm

origami

Spock was my favorite Star Trek character.

4:13 pm

hurshy

naturally

4:13 pm

hurshy

Spock IS Star Trek

4:14 pm

origami

I was fond of Scottie also

4:15 pm

hurshy

I loved Star Trek, for which I receive endless teasing from Ru.

4:44 pm

rururocks

Space nerds

4:46 pm

MollyL

I never got the whole Star Trek obsession

4:48 pm

jesdraggon

hi all

4:48 pm

hurshy

i like a quote from a fellow called John Green: "...because nerds like us are allowed to be unironically enthusiastic about stuff. Nerds are allowed to love stuff, like jump-up-and-down-in-the-chair-can’t-\ncontrol-yourself love it... when people call people nerds, mostly what they’re saying is ‘you like stuff.’ Which is just not a good insult at all. Like, ‘you are too enthusiastic about the miracle of human consciousness’.”

4:50 pm

hurshy

i forget, what makes the chat put in the \n ??

4:51 pm

hurshy

usually it's in URLs

4:54 pm

MollyL

Endless text without spaces

4:54 pm

hurshy

ah

4:54 pm

MollyL

Next gift from Ru to Origami, Star Trek Crocs

4:55 pm

hurshy

star trek yes, crocs not so much, at least from my POV

4:55 pm

hurshy

but maybe origami loves crocs and you know that and i didn't?

4:55 pm

MollyL

Crocs and Star Trek. Oy.

4:57 pm

hurshy

i have two pairs of crocs. one is the like usual style, was a gift from someone who didn't know me well, i don't really use them. the other is totally different - more like the jelly shoes we had back in the 80s in elementary school

4:59 pm

hurshy

it's so interesting how shoes feel different to different people... like some people swear by Danskos if you have to walk and stand a lot in your job, but i've tried them and didn't find them comfortable.

4:59 pm

hurshy

and mario batali obviously finds crocs very comfortable

5:00 pm

jesdraggon

I have croc-brand clogs, they are WAAAY more comfortable than any Danskos

5:00 pm
