"Go spare" is also used in the UK. Means tear your hair out!

I have a problem with this cesspool of egotism.

Each and every one of you.
1:29 am
Pinikula

speaking from self experience, vy?
1:29 am

If you had a problem with the politics chat from earlier, can we just let it go? Otherwise, I don't know what you're getting at
1:29 am

Then. Go. Away.
1:31 am
VYCanisMajoris

Is there a way to turn off chat?
1:31 am

Yeah, leave the game.

Click the "My Friends" tab and it hides chat.

grem, can you list the p's please?

1:34 am

You know, you're the only one that has been rude since I arrived awhile ago...I haven't heard anyone say anything rude to anyone else except you...and I've known the others for a long time...what's your problem? just curious?
1:34 am
gremlinn

He's the type who always needs the last word, I think.
1:34 am
VYCanisMajoris

Soon, I need to get more off my chest here that I'm not allowed to anywhere else
1:34 am
VYCanisMajoris

Congrats Grem for not relying on anything to solve this! I bet it felt good typing it and abated your ever enormous ego!

1:37 am
VYCanisMajoris

I know, everything you say is nice to one another and appears nice on first glance, but I have seen first hand in real life that most of it is an act
1:37 am
VYCanisMajoris

This lady I played at the scrabble club with isn't anything like what she is when she is with people.
1:38 am
gremlinn

I've had a couple positive experiences with real-life meetups with communities I've known online to start.
1:38 am
VYCanisMajoris

Which entails a lot of etiquette, feigned nicety, etc. etc. This is where your ego comes from, ladies.
1:38 am
gremlinn

Don't generalize based on your personal experience, please
1:38 am
VYCanisMajoris

And frankly, I'm sick of reading and living the same bull crap everywhere I go in life.
1:39 am
VYCanisMajoris

You people and your ego which I will never understand is the reason I am so miserable.
1:40 am
VYCanisMajoris

You impose your values on everyone else and without even knowing it, indoctrinate your children, family and friends to behave a certain way
1:40 am
VYCanisMajoris

Which, truthfully, is mindless. You pretend everything is normal day in and day out without even considering for a moment how screwed up everyone and everything is
1:41 am
VYCanisMajoris

Gremlinn, at this point I'm willing to say that it's not a generalization. Everyone does this.
1:42 am
Pinikula

I have 1 "I" from the lower right...(im5)...what's the other? plz/thx
1:42 am

To think, I almost retracted calling you a troll earlier.

congrat on finishing grenlinn, am awed
1:43 am
VYCanisMajoris

I like the day-long aspect of it. I despise the chat from which a community was built to exchange pointless banter and etiquette about nothing
1:43 am
gremlinn

Well, good thing you know how to hide it now. Bye!
1:43 am

Then. Go. Away.
1:44 am

but you can always block out the chat
1:44 am

there's always therapy to help you VY

sammysmom

mhhhhhhhhhhhh sound like me all right... i have been imposing my values and indoctrinating my children and grandchildred for 56 years and they have listened and done well ..........'courrse if they HADN"T listened to mama i would have KICKED ass
1:45 am
VYCanisMajoris

Ah, ruru, but isn't that true? Of course you would recommend that, as everyone else I have talked to has. The fact is, and despite the way I feel when I'm around people, I'm actually very happy when I'm alone.
1:45 am
VYCanisMajoris

Its an interesting paradox that the people who recommend therapy are the ones that need it themselves.
1:46 am
rururocks

then consider living in the desert vy
1:46 am
saanichcat

stats please on that
1:46 am
VYCanisMajoris

How old are you ruru?
1:46 am
rururocks

that's none of your concern
1:46 am
rururocks

but certainly older than you
1:46 am
Pinikula

If you feel better when alone, then consider closing the chat and allow the rest of us to enjoy the game and chat
1:47 am

I'm interested in knowing. You're willing to admit your gender and country, why not your age?

*hugs* rose, hi torg and saan and pini and smom! How are you all?
1:50 am
VYCanisMajoris

I maybe should have made an alternative word for paradox in that context because it's not actually a paradox, but a reversal of it
1:51 am
gremlinn

"Irony" might work.
1:51 am
gremlinn

That's a common pitfall word in usage though.
1:52 am
VYCanisMajoris

Anyway, continue with your day, folks. I just wanted to say that your egos are... beautiful. And that things will get better when you finally get sick of this facade and start yourselves anew
1:52 am

I'm just fine, you sprite?

yes joseph, not because of some daft patriotism, to start with i wasa a No, i couldn't see how we could be better on out own but now, with all the threats from Westminster and all the daft lies floating about, the promises of things they could have given is two or three years ago, I am a yes, simply because i know we will thrive as an independant nation, just as the USA thrived, but if the vote goes to a NO then westminster will punish us as a nation because of the audacity of demanding a referendum, they punished us in the 70's, but the thing is that nobody will care or intervene, we will be stripped of even more
6:45 am
josephjames

interesting
6:45 am
jacq

sorry that was a bit soap boxy lol
6:46 am
josephjames

i don't know what you wear in tahiti other than bathing suits
6:46 am
grannyrose

nice to have it from the horse's mouth so to speak. we only see/hear what is on the tv and in the newspapers.
6:46 am
crosshair

not at all jacq. it is good to hear things from an inside perspective and not some filtered half-truths that hit our news after it has been altered 100 times

I really appreciate lickety whenever he arrives
7:07 am

I haven't even been checking lickety lately
7:07 am

Been so long since I have gotten down to 25 words that Lickety or the lack of lickety has been a non-issue for me for a long time:(

Hi Rose, hi all
7:08 am
sukee

Since I started this poetry course I have a little less free time
7:09 am
crosshair

I have some poetry assignments in my writers craft course, but I will steer clear of them if i get the option. I have don other more appealing assignments., though I do have my own poetry on poetry.com
7:10 am
crosshair

done
7:10 am
sukee

I even have to write an essays close reading an Emily Dickinson poem
7:10 am
sukee

I'll find out which one today.
7:11 am
crosshair

I find the way the text book tears it down and does an autopsy on it kind of takes the magic away for me
7:11 am
sukee

Sometimes it does
7:12 am
sukee

That is why I quit studying comparative literature, I felt people put too much meaning into some things
7:13 am
crosshair

When I write them, I write them from a spark within me and not to form it to some chart that says it must be laid out in this precise way:)
7:13 am
periwinkle

70 left, bbl. doing laundry, etc
7:13 am
crosshair

ugh.. please do not say laundry...
7:13 am
sukee

Any way, even though I write part time for a living I am nervous about the essay. It is accessed by your classmates.
7:14 am
crosshair

yes.. sometimes a cigar is just a cigar lol
7:14 am
sukee

:)
7:14 am
sukee

Anyway, how is your weather. It's 3 here, even my blanket could not keep me warm last night.
7:15 am
crosshair

ahh yes, the peer review tear-down. you open up a vein, hold it over the page and bleed your heart out and some classmate dissects it, rolls it in mud, derrides it then with a great big smile hands it back to you:/
7:15 am
crosshair

was 6c last night and I have the heat on for the first time
7:15 am
sukee

I am enjoying the course though, feels like a regular university poetry course.
7:16 am
sukee

I have to wait until the building puts the heat on, which is usually early October.
7:16 am
MimiCat

In my opinion, the biggest mistake people make during peer review is giving too much weight to other people's opinions. I write for ME and if others like it, great, but if not, I'm still writing.
7:16 am
crosshair

Mine is a University writers craft course, so I know exactly what you are going through, sukee
7:17 am
sukee

Yes, it's not like there is a grade, you just complete everything and get a certificate whatever.
7:17 am
MimiCat

I use the constructive comments and just mentally discard criticism for criticism's sake.
7:17 am
crosshair

((mimi)) yes, outside of class you can write just for you or one person, but in the class it does not pan, the rubrics they use for the marking does not allow such parameters
7:18 am
sukee

I also have to critique too, I guess it's just commenting on their reading of the poem.
7:18 am
crosshair

mine has a grade level and a marking schedule
7:18 am
sukee

I've also signed up to take a Shakespeare course next month, at another site, still free.
7:19 am
crosshair

as a writer you do need to grow a tick skin:)
7:19 am
crosshair

thick
7:19 am
MimiCat

I do write differently now that I've "matured." I can go a bit outside myself and look at what I'm writing from someone else's perspective. That helps.
7:19 am
crosshair

you are brave sukee
7:19 am
crosshair

I passed on the bard
7:19 am
sukee

You sure do, I see what is written on Facebook under links to New Yorker and other magazines.
7:19 am

Love Shakespeare...especially the comedies.
7:20 am

The course is Shakespeare on the page and in film so it looks like fun
7:20 am
sukee

I love Shakespeare, I even have a book collection and a Shakespeare doll :)
7:20 am

I have a copy of his comedies from the late 1900s
7:20 am

I think I move on to op-ed pieces next week
7:20 am

Op-ed is fun
7:21 am

I was really weird in high school...I read much of Shakespeare in the summer between my Freshman and Sophomore years....peers really thought that was strange.
7:21 am

It looks fun:)
7:21 am

The old book I have has a lovely binding and the paper is still in good shape.

I have 3 bookcases of books too :) I do admit I haven't bought a print book in several years.
7:23 am
JesDreher

thanks
7:24 am
MimiCat

The thing that appeals to me about that mode is that it has its own light source...good for reading in bed...right?
7:24 am
crosshair

I just have no more room for print books! My livingroom would have to be turned into a library
7:25 am
Anniebrook


great for reading in bed
7:25 am

great for reading in bed mimi
7:25 am

Well, I have the 2nd generation Kindle with no back lighting, but looks like regular print. But, I still read in bed.
7:25 am
crosshair

I have a nook HD reader. sadly they no longer make them
7:25 am
sukee

I also read on my iPad when I download books from the library. Just read Breakfast at Tiffany's after all these years of loving the movie.
7:26 am
MimiCat

And you can access lots of material easily, right?
7:26 am
crosshair

oh yes, mimi. I have 225 books on my reader now
7:26 am
MimiCat

Whoa! OK...must seriously consider it.
7:27 am
sukee

Well, you can load your own books and get them from various sources. It's only automatic through Amazon. But, I have the Calibri program that allows you to convert and add any books to the Kindle.
7:27 am
crosshair

It is a learning curve. the first two weeks will be odd, then after a bit you will wonder how you ever managed without it
7:27 am
crosshair

Calibre is an amazing program
7:28 am
MimiCat

....just like the computer!
7:28 am
crosshair

cough...bookzz.org..cough...
7:28 am
crosshair

mm, computer is acting up again;))
7:28 am
sukee

Hmm, I'll check that one out. Pixel of Ink is a good source too, they link to free books on Amazon.
7:29 am
MimiCat

((crossy)) That cleaner program you sent me worked great in stopping my browser freezing! Thanks so much.
7:29 am

You can download from Gutenburg to, I got a whole series of the Fairy books :)

everything is on that site, but make sure you look to the right on the screen and make sure it is in a language you can read
7:32 am
crosshair

a lot of dutch and german versions make their way to that site
7:32 am
crosshair

and of course always choose epub if you can
7:33 am
sukee

Well, I will go see what is for breakfast.
7:33 am

though you can load it and convert with calibre

8:28 am

n the tea industry, tea leaf grading is the process of evaluating products based on the quality and condition of the tea leaves themselves. The highest grades are referred to as "orange pekoe", and the lowest as "fannings" or "dust".
8:28 am

had to hit wiki for that:)
8:29 am

cool
8:29 am

Orange pekoe is referred to as "OP". The grading scheme also contains categories higher than OP, which are determined primarily by leaf wholeness and size.[1][2]

I really enjoy first dates. It's the 'gobshitery ' that follows that annoys me.

That comment reminds me of what a friend of mine says..."My relationships are an endless string of beginnings"
4:45 pm

Of course first dates are fun. That's where all the bling is. The flowers, the fancy dinner, dressed to the nines and on his best behaviour.

4:51 pm

Apparently, I need to start dating Canadian men. My dates usually take me for tacos or a walk in the park. Granted, it IS my favorite restaurant and I do like sandwiches in the park.
4:52 pm

lol@ someone having the nerve to do a taco date
4:53 pm
crosshair

walk=free tacos =99cents each..biiig spenders lol
4:53 pm

They're my favorite. I have actually gone on several dates there. AND when guys have wanted to take me somewhere else, they have almost all chosen the same place that happens to be one I don't care for at all!

For me, the 'gobshitery' begins when he thinks that it's OK to fart in my presence.
4:55 pm

worked for me. No mistakes and she had her steak:)
4:55 pm
redshoes

Tacos ARE my favorite food. Well, technically, nachos...and I have my own technique.
4:55 pm
crosshair

we had a taco bell here once. it failed after a year or so along with the burger king
4:56 pm
Jellen

Idk. The guy that took me for the nicest first date turned out to be poor...blew a lot of money he shouldn't have to impress me.
4:56 pm
redshoes

Steak is about the one fancy food I always enjoy. Otherwise, I have pretty specific and/or plain tastes.
4:56 pm
crosshair

Nothing is finer than a good steak prepared properly
4:56 pm

SEEE??? I don't want a guy to think he's got to break the bank for me. It's not about that.

Exactly.

lol, I my beloved had been in it for the money, I would of been on the curb long ago;)

4:58 pm

From what I've heard, there is not much ethnic food in Canada. Especially good Mexican.
4:59 pm

closest I can come is a flaming fajita place that does a nice job and brings it all to your table on hot stones and flames things at your table
4:59 pm

Ahhh...well then of course he has to go for big guns. And probably something warm too. Brrrrr
4:59 pm

Not much call for mexican food...
5:00 pm

though for some reason there are a lot of thai places
5:00 pm

I can understand sushi, actually, for some reason. Thai food is just everywhere, and I'm OK with that.
5:01 pm

We have a sushi and martini bar that I have always wanted to check out, but I better take a cab if i am guzzling martini's all night

I've found that the only time my integrity slips is when I have to be on a clock just because. I like the work. I can do work. I can put in the time. Just pay me what it's worth and let me do something productive with the rest of my time. :P

I think Thursday is D Day for the Scots.
5:30 pm
Jellen

Yes, Thursday. Just googled it.
5:30 pm
Soodle

Hey Jellen ((())) :-)
5:31 pm
MollyL

I wish them well in Scotland. It's way past time for this.
5:31 pm
Jellen

Hello Soodle!
5:32 pm
Soodle

Well, the Irish did it in 1922 - no reason why Scotland can't do it!
5:34 pm
MollyL

I hope they all wear blue and white face paint to the polls.
5:34 pm
Jellen

It would be nice to see the men in kilts... ;)
5:35 pm
Soodle

And those sexy Mel Gibson mini skirts...
5:35 pm
Jellen

lol
5:37 pm
Soodle

Now that I think about it, I'd tolerate a fair bit of gobshitery from Mel Gibson
5:38 pm
MollyL

You'd get it too
5:38 pm
Jellen

He's certainly full of it!
5:39 pm
Soodle

You see? THATS why I'm single! Go for the wrong 'uns every time.
5:40 pm
Jellen

This grid is not going very quickly for me. Distracted by men in kilts and blue and white face paint...
5:40 pm
MollyL

Your man picker is broken
5:41 pm
Soodle

It was faulty from day 1 Molls :-(
5:42 pm
MollyL

I think you should be able to get a refund on things like that. But then again, the merchandise being sought is flawed as well.
5:42 pm
Jellen

Must go. Lovely seeing you all...
5:43 pm

When we had our Quebec vote in 1995 I think it was, it was close indeed but in the end it was still no

did you just try refreshing the page....worked for me...
6:10 pm
MollyL

Clear your cache then
6:10 pm

Click in the page, Cntrl F5, or if all else fails search Google on how to clear your internet cache
6:11 pm

clearkng the cache worked. I always forget to do that. ty

You mean Lickety Expert, right Bich?
6:17 pm
72 Temple Owl

when caches are cleared, dont you lose all saved passwords?
6:17 pm
bichon

Doh, sorry
6:19 pm
gremlinn

I don't think so. Cached content should be separately stored.
6:19 pm
MollyL

I don't know TO, I don't save my passwords on web sites.
6:20 pm
gremlinn

But who knows, always possible one browser or another does things differently. I wouldn't think a majorly used browser would function that way. Cache/cookies/passwords should all have separate clear mechanisms.
6:25 pm
penquis

clue for the last sa 6/21 please?
6:26 pm

Hi Tor and gremlinn! How are you both doing tonight?
9:23 pm
gremlinn

Fine, and you?
9:24 pm
Nef

gremlinn, who is that beautiful girl on your profile pic?
9:24 pm
gremlinn

This one's Tomoko Kanazawa.
9:25 pm
Nef

Never heard of her (now Googling)
9:26 pm
Nef

she looks so young; and she's a pop star in Japan?
9:26 pm
gremlinn

Yeah
9:28 pm
gremlinn

Need any clues?
9:29 pm
Nef

Well, I have about 130 words left to find; but I just got here about 35-40 minutes ago. :-)
9:29 pm
gremlinn

ok; I'll be around
9:30 pm
Nef

The O's are a bit tough for me to see (I've already got NBS and NBT)
9:30 pm
gremlinn

yeah, several scientific words among them
9:32 pm
Nef

Among the O words? Thanks!
9:33 pm
Nef

I got 3 words with that clue, thanks!
9:34 pm
gremlinn

there's another O word with only one consonant
9:36 pm
Nef

I have an O 4/5 already; is there another one?
9:36 pm
gremlinn

yeah, a 5 letter
9:38 pm
Nef

Hmmm, searching now.
9:39 pm
Nef

Got it! Thanks! 1 O word left now! THank you Gremlinn! :-D
9:39 pm

Nef

Hi Pinikula! How are you these days?
9:47 pm
Pinikula

doing ok, nef...how are you?
9:49 pm
Nef

Hanging in there, Pini. Life throws some curves at times; our job is to sink or swim (& sometimes it's hard to tell which is which!)
9:49 pm
Pinikula

Boy, do I hear you there!
9:53 pm
Nef

Are you surviving your curves these days?
My DH has been sick again & so I'm running away from home to see me siblings for a week (this coming Thursday) -- as long as he stays healthy until I get out of the state!
9:54 pm
Pinikula

I'm working on it, Nef...sorry to hear about your DH; hope that changes for the better soon!!! I hope you're able to enjoy your adventure :)
9:57 pm
Nef

I've decided that the only way we will ever have a vacation is if I plan the whole thing by myself and then tell him an hour before we leave. He's gotten sick every time we've planned a vacation for the past 4-5 years.
9:59 pm
Nef

(We're supposed to be in Las Vegas right now, but he decided to have emergency surgery Monday night to have his gall bladder out. Last month it was a urine infection.)
9:59 pm
Pinikula

oh my!!!! (an interesting way to go about it, but if that's how it works best now, you just gotta do whatcha gotta do)! :)
9:59 pm
Nef

I'm getting ready to smack him one if this keeps up!

(jk, of course; but it is frustrating)
10:00 pm
Pinikula

oh my!!!! (an interesting way to go about it, but if that's how it works best now, you just gotta do whatcha gotta do)! :)

10:01 pm
Pinikula

10:01 pm
Nef

LOL! I didn't remember you stuttered….
10:02 pm
Pinikula

Yeah, I don't recall my stuttering before either...odd! :o)
10:03 pm
Nef

new computer -or tablet?
10:03 pm
Pinikula

neither... but a new either one would be nice! :)
10:04 pm

Hmmm, maybe it's the site? All of a sudden things are slowing way down for me

hi Nef, well here thanks
10:07 pm
rururocks

I am fine here thanks. Sorry your dh isn't doing well
10:10 pm
Nef

Thanks, ruru. The trouble with M.S. is you can LOOK good and be quite ill. He's immunosupressed, so the tiniest infection puts him in the hospital. I can't pick him up off the floor anymore either; so that's a PIA
10:11 pm
rururocks

Gosh nef..can you get help around the house
10:12 pm
flosey

sorry to hear about your husband Nef, can you get home support?
10:14 pm
Nef

Our son and grandson are still living here now; so I've had help with some of the falls; but our son said that he's planning to move out in the next month orzo. I'm going to be gone for a week (leaving Thursday) and am hoping that my son will see how much work it is and that I do need his help here.
10:15 pm
Nef

(that was or so, spellcheck messed that up!)
10:18 pm
Nef

Sorry to complain, I just need a break and will have 1 the end of the week.
Flosey, I love your link in your profile! I've seen it before; and have had quite a few chuckles from it! :-)
