Ach. Let's call it a draw, shall we?

We shall. *hopes no one notices that sticky, pink, heart-shaped candies with ants in them is his one and ONLY weakness*

Right, that really made me blush.

The problem a) with that idea is, she always takes one of her friends to school and from school - and b) I'm propably working when she leaves. And I think it's a bit too open yet... The next time she looks at me, I'll just form a heart with my hands. You know, the insides of thumbs together and all the other fingernails together. <3

Go for it.

Let us know when the first date is.

Wish me luck on it, guys. I should know in about a week if they'll consider it.

*noms on chocolate cake*

Very, very nice.

As said before me: keep us posted.

*almost forgets*

And best of luck!

*hopes it is a very large chocolate cake as she walks in*

Whew. Maybe in the Teacup, it's impossible to make a small chocolate cake.

Now, for dessert... what'd you do with your clam chowder, Nauti?

The thing with LLL was that I found it really hard to jump back in. Like, the character had been silent for so long, it seemed odd that suddenly she would be involved again. Maybe I'll go post in the discussion thread.

Addition: I was reading a thread in the Archive (I think that's where I found it) about how to annoy admen* (sound familiar, Tess?) One of the suggestions was type everything with your nose. I very nearly began typing with my nose WHILE I'M AT WORK. If I had, I think you definitely would have heard about it as well.

*I think "admen" is the SCIENTIFIC plural for admin. Saying "admins" is like saying "cactuses".

I can think of nothing else to say to all of the above posts but...

Except for the posts that are sad. In that case I say, have a cup of tea or coffee, or a bottle of beer. In my case, tea. Unless it's a rough morning. Then it's coffee!!!!

Coffee for me.

It's early, rainy and cold here. And I must say it's good to see a new face here since I was gone, Welcome to the moot, Amanda.

Oh, so it is. My mistake. *hefts BOMB*

**Mari** · 11-10-2009, 01:17 PM

Eek!

*takes cover and starts throwing meese at Nauti*

Midge · 11-10-2009, 04:07 PM

Would you mind posting a description or image of "meese"?

**Mari** · 11-10-2009, 06:02 PM

Multiple moose? If the plural is mooses, I blame my friends on EuropeForum... >_<

Midge · 11-10-2009, 06:27 PM

Well, I wasn't sure if we were throwing mice or mooses or something that has nothing to do with either of those. Thank you!

I think "meese" should be the plural of the term "mouse" in reference to the device used with computers, not the rodent. To differentiate between the two and because it sounds so weird to say that the computer mice were broken or whatever.

Amanda · 11-10-2009, 07:46 PM

Teacher: "Now, define 'meese'."

Student: "Could you please use meese in a sentence?"

Teacher: "'Meese' is a difficult word to define."

Student: "Oh, come on!!!!"

SQUEE!!!!!!

***Tessar*** · 11-10-2009, 10:57 PM

Hahaha, that reminds me of Will and Grace at the Gay Spellingbee

.

"The word is... doily."

-"Doily.... can you... use it in a sentence please?"

"Okay.... He moved doily down the street."

-"Ohhh. Doily!.... D... o.. i.. l... y. Doily!"

"Correct!"

And then

"The word is... taffeta."

-"Can you use it in a sentence please?"

"... I like taffeta."

:P

Gwaimir Windgem · 11-11-2009, 03:25 AM

"The word is . . . DeGeneres."

"I'm sorry, ma'am, but hags must stay back from the stage."

**Mari** · 11-11-2009, 08:52 AM

That's evil Gwai.

Gwaimir Windgem · 11-11-2009, 11:14 AM

Don't blame me, blame Will and Grace.

Midge · 11-11-2009, 04:41 PM

I'll blame your other forum friends, Mari.

Acally, congrats! I keep wanting to spell the shortened version of your name with two Cs.

Edit: Hey, GW. I had no idea where you were going in the four-word thread. Kinda scared me for a minute!
