Between this and Pokemon Go... goodbye, battery.

I've heard good things about powerbanks, which have become all the rage since the introduction of Pokémon Go.

I've got two, but Go drains the phone battery so fast that I've found they can do little but stem off the inevitable a little while.

Pish, posh, there is a Thai place uptown that makes very good ones. I always finish it up.

The really good Thai restaurant in town closed down. The owners went back to Thailand. I am genuinely brokenhearted, as it was an excellent place.

That's a shame, yes. There are two good Thai restaurants in my town, so that's a bit of a blessing.

Some game apps do that. You can go from 100% power to 2% in no time.

A second joint opened, but it's carry-out and the reviews I've read aren't encouraging.

Oh, man, the Thai restaurant next to the school closed down last year and I was heartbroken. They gave you enough food in one meal that I could always bring some home and make two more out of it, and they'd always have some interesting dessert come complementary -- a scoop of ice cream one time, a little round individual cake another. They were good people and it was a shame to see them go.

In that case you have no choice but to accept the harsh truth and consign yourself to having to take breaks every few hours while your phone and powerbanks recharge.

Buy one of the large capacity powerbanks.

A quick visit to dictionary.com taught me that both are possible. English is funny like that.

English is indeed hilarious. I saw them doing stand up last week.

Bit late to the party, but while both are correct, "I'm disoriented" is more correct.

Disorientated is a past participle. So "I am disoriented, and have been for some time" = "I am disorientated". "I am disoriented" is strictly present tense.

I should really mow the lawn soon. Don't really want to. *sigh*

How are things with you?

A simpler way to put it would've been "grammar is an irrelevant human construct. If they can understand you, it works."

Honestly, today's the first time I've heard the expression which is why I asked. It made me a bit disoriented.

I was an English teacher, while I may have seen the light and bailed I can't betray my former comrades like that. :p

Still around! Shit's finally hit the fan, but once this all blows over, hoping to be here more regularly. *thumbs up*

Don't really want to talk about it. Work stuff. Silver linings and all that. I somehow manage to fall up the stairs when stuff like this happens, so here's hoping this will be no different.

Why mention it if you don't want to talk about it?

So, like, I just completely overhauled the Quotes portion of my Signature. I think its better now.
