I think a mod can fix that for you - why don't you try?

trolls' bane · 10-09-2005, 08:52 PM

That's what I heard. Still not the same, not really.

The last sane person · 10-09-2005, 10:07 PM

Think they'd bother? Well either way, I'll ask.

trolls' bane · 10-09-2005, 10:29 PM

They did for ElemmÃ*rÃ«, so why not you.
El, do you have to type in those letters every time you log on?
I'm sure you know the alt code, but the only one I know is Alt 0229, which is "Ã¥".
I can figure the other ones out by typing in the codes in order, but it takes time and I foget them instantly.

Uh, was I TALKing to you just then, Lief? I'll answer that for you - NO, I was not, nor was I asking you for any advice on whether or not I ought to participate in any old thread I feel like, for whatever reason, at any time. Where did that come from??? Do me a BIG, big favour, O.K., and cease & desist with telling me what to do. I repeat, STOP smugly telling me what to do. There is no friggin' falling back on "oh, you must have misunderstood me." Take responsibility, Lief, for how you say what you say. And STOP persisting with your condescending words to me. Whether you "mean" to condescend or not, is neither here nor there, because WHAT YOU SAY AND HOW YOU SAY IT, MEANS EXACTLY WHAT IT COMES ACROSS AS. We have been through this, you and I, enough already, haven't we? Let's not start this old engine up again. DO NOT CONDESCEND TO ME ANYMORE. Thank you, I hope.

The last sane person · 10-10-2005, 12:46 AM

*winces* Oh boy....*pours more coffee and tea*...never mind Lotesse, just be happy.

***RÃan*** · 10-10-2005, 12:54 AM

Oy!

I've always considered posts to be general comments, available for ANYONE to comment on, unless they're specifically directed at someone - especially in a Cafe!! I quoted ElemmÃ*rÃ« and commented, even tho she wasn't talking to me. Trolls' bane quoted me and commented, ditto.

I think of most posts, and esp. Cafe posts, as comments thrown out to the group in general, and anyone can respond.

I would have felt free to comment on your comment, Lotesse. Good thing I didn't (?)

Pass the soothing tea around, Shah!

(I remember a VERY recent PM, from a certain person that I like, where she was concerned about me misunderstanding her ...

*Slips into the cafe looking tired and wearing pajamas*

I'll take some of that soothing tea... sleep is not deigning to visit tonight.

Reading conversations in which a mooter that one knows in real life is participating is kind of a weird feeling, I should really be used to it by now, but the gap between their online and real life personas always throws me for a bit of a loop. Cheese. I'm rambling now...

Stupid sleep patterns, just at the very end of the weekend when I actually have class in the morning I can't sleep at all. Did I have any trouble sleeping the night before? No, of course not; because one never has trouble sleeping when there's no reason apart from actual sleepiness to do so...

*grumbles*

Dear sweet fuzzbuckets it's 2:15 in the morning and I just edited this post for puncuation.

Maybe music will help.

Yeah, that would be kinda weird, I imagine!

Telcontar_Dunedain · 10-10-2005, 11:59 AM

Ooo. Pastries. How is everyone today.
I was up way to late the other night. My Dad, my cousin and I were up until 1 having races on our Playstation 2. *yawns*

Willow Oran · 10-10-2005, 12:09 PM

Scones are happy. Thank you.

Classes were fun this morning, especially latin. We watched a Public Television video clip in Latin. It involved low budget sets and costumes with mediocre acting, but it was in latin and it had amusing slapstick sound effects, and it gave us the chance to see our professor in drag as a pregnant woman which really just made the fact that I was half asleep and that it's monday and rainy all okay.

Funny how that works.

Spock · 10-10-2005, 12:11 PM

Pax Vobiscum.

Pytt · 10-10-2005, 12:41 PM

Hello all.
I've been to England. Even though I had mono... and it went very well. It was really amazing. Great time. Hows everyone doing?

Mercutio · 10-10-2005, 12:50 PM

Welcome back

Glad you enjoyed yourself. Will you have pictures?

***RÃan*** · 10-10-2005, 01:00 PM

That sounds like fun, TD! My husband and kids will have a MarioKart competition every once in awhile - it's fun to watch.

Welcome back, Pytt! Hope your trip was great!

That sounds like a wonderful class to have after a late night, Willow!

*hands some Wake-up Waffles around to everyone, including self*

Pytt · 10-10-2005, 01:06 PM

Thanks

I think I will have some pics out soon. Maybe even one of myself. Since I don't think you know how I look yet..

Telcontar_Dunedain · 10-10-2005, 01:20 PM

Hiya Pytt. How'd you enjoy it here in England? Where did you go?
