TET: Snail Riders, Charge!

[Abserdia]

So I got a notification that a book I ordered about two weeks ago about the Halifax Explosion should be arriving tomorrow. Not great timing Books a Million.

The universe is a comedian

It needs to work on this bit.

[Ethel mermania]

The universe is a comedian

It needs to work on this bit.

Not really, timing is a crucial part of comedy.

The universe is a tasteless comedian.

Oh mighty warrior of great fighting stock
Might I inquire to ask eh... what's up doc?

I am going to kill the wabbit!


I can't believe my spell check rejected "wabbit"

[Atheris]

God damn them all!
I was told we'd cruise the seas for American gold
We'd fire no guns, shed no tears
Now I'm a broken man on a Halifax pier,
The last of Barrett's privateers

How I wish I was in Sherbrooke now

YES

FINALLY

SOMEONE WHO KNOWS ABOUT BARRETT'S PRIVATEERS

First heard the song from a cover by the Irish Descendants but I'm also a big fan of the work of Stan Rogers.

Just had my best game ever in GeoGuessr, I think. 24,881 points.

One day I'll get that 25,000...

The dream on starting right next somewhere you know. Or a nice big sign telling you exactly where you are.

The dream on starting right next somewhere you know. Or a nice big sign telling you exactly where you are.

I was put in Brussels for the first guess, which was very nice. Quick 5,000.
Two guesses later, South Tyrol and a roadsign that basically pinpointed the exact location. Easy 5,000.
The three other guesses were two places in Taiwan and Potosi, Bolivia.

Very good seed, I'd say. Some pretty places and two max scores are always fun.

Recently Ethel's use of the English language was surprisingly unmangled, so clearly innovations were implemented.

You can change your mind about things at any time, Gen.

As for NSG, if you appear sincere -- over time -- people will generally accept that.

I was intending to just stop posting for a while, but that wouldn't really work. So I'll see if people can believe that I changed my mind about essentially everything.

Unless I lose the regional election. If that happens, I'm going to let this nation CTE.

It’s got an English dub. However, I prefer to watch German with English subtitles.

It’s very interesting to see a story set in Germany though. Is it really a German thing for kids to hit each other “casually” on the back of each other’s heads like a high five or was that just a gimmick to show how annoying some of the kids were?

Doesn’t seem very safe

In my experience, yes, kind of. It's the equivalent of the friendly arm punch. It might depend on the region, or generation, or something like that, though.

Interesting

Do they do that in North America as well? Or is it germany only?

Sometimes. It really depends on how close you are with a person. Like, I'd to it to my best friend, but I wouldn't do it to an acquaintance.

Yes! I too am fancy! Ergo, verily, bigwords!

I was considering balderdash. Would that have been better?


And while the power is still out, the generator works. The lovely sounds of 4-stroke engines fills the neighborhood with joy. And the refrigerator remains cold.

Balderdash is too close to your nation type.

I haven't seen it here yet, personally.

I am sensitive about my hair.

I have taken to making people in my webex meetings look at my bald spot, expecting them to tell me they don't see it.

Well alternatively, do they high five in Germany?

It is almost midnight, which means it's time for my cat Pippa to sprint up and down the stairs while meowing as loud as she can.
