To not be able to recognize a Doctor Who gif on sight is bad enough... but then to refer to him as NOSEDRIP GUY... insult to injury ;-).

Thank you Hailee! I was still in shock!
And you know the worst ? Now that I've seen this nosedriping thing too. I. Can't. UNSEE IT.(view spoiler)
Elinor wrote: "And you know the worst ? Now that I've seen this nosedriping thing too. I. Can't. UNSEE IT."
Don't worry Elinor, when you come to it - it's one of the saddest scenes you will be too busy crying to think about nose drips.
Edit: Oh god Zaara - why did you do this - I have been using this gif so long. I can't UnSEE it either!
Elinor wrote: "And you know the worst ? Now that I've seen this nosedriping thing too. I. Can't. UNSEE IT."
Now put That in a spoiler - it's giving me a headache!

Thank you for the hugs and love. I have only an hour left, then I can go away in peace.
I'm in a mood because I knew I have to go away. And I am going to miss you all soon much.
Can you believe it's only been 20 days, I couldn't imagine getting so attached to you guys so soon!

Broke my heart too.
I'm laughting so hard right now, I'm happy to be alone at home(and of course I'm not refering to the "that broke my heart" comments. that would be strange. and I'm not that strange.)
Where are you????????????????????????????????????????????????????
Come back to us! ❤️❤️❤️ I'm reading WoR alooooooneeee! 😭 XD
A really good question! Where are you Zaara? Don't leave us all aloneeeee 😢
Now when y'all say it like that...EDIT....so many messages...you guys went on for a bit after I last logged out...checking the backlog....

Ohk I'm kinda caught up for this thread at least.....
Haha @Hailee @Elinor @Kari
Ooooooooouppp my ignorance is exposed...now I am totally busted and *KICK*d...😂😂😂
N😝ooooooooouuunooooo!
Mind, it was never a big secret about my ignorance and horrible tastes...since I have awlays (from the beginning) been crying it from the rooftops...the latest imstance being Exhibit A...as follows....

You'll be surprised...the things I don't know...haha!
This is not a fakery...I'm not being CUTE or anything...I really AM this dumb!"
You were warned, ppl!
😂😈
May I now also now present Exhibit B viz. Laura the Dragonchild, who I further note, refers to him as the Nose DROPPING Guy which is far worse...since it hints that the drip (or drop as the case may be) was internally manufactured rather than a mere external roll-off.
Here:
Laura wrote: "Sorry for barging in here... I just wanted to see the nose dropping guy."
Hasn't that ruined amd grossed it all for you EVEN MORE yet?
Haha!
*cunningly throws Dragonchild to the fans and runs away*
Ok reckon I'll catch up on the rest later....
Oh you don't know what I thought about this conversation today because my mom came across this gif on the internet while I was near her ! I was laughing so hard all over again.
smut helpline?Hey Zaara!
We are reading Neanderthal Seeks Human this weekend at Naughty Book Club. Join us. 😊
Sorry sweets...don't own the book and the weekend is gonna be busy...party + tickets to a show = no time to be on GR anyway.Sorry abt that :-)) but I'm sure you'll understand, Manu sweetheart as you are...
Have fun reading the book!
Heh, it was sweet of you to think of me.
Hey Zaara sweety, these days it seems like you're always online when I'm not 😅 I hope you're fine :) And of course I've got some pictures for you!
(view spoiler)
Zaara sweety! I've been Well done! :D
@Anni @Virginie @ShaThank you...how can I be anything but ok with friends like y'all? Just headed out for long country houseparty a biggish family party for which we booked a house out by the river. This is why I was rushing a bit ahead of the Tattercoats schedule faster than the timetable a bit so that when I'm bk we are all the the same place and can proceed smmoothly. Im in a bit of a rush...there's so many errands...I reply all messages later ok bye...lots of stuff happemed this week. I am gonna be so late for Ahrry Potter!Thanks guys.

*always wonder what the original/uncensored swear would be whenever I read this*
Does it read like I wrote that last (quasi-rational) post while holding a teetering pile of stuff in one hand AND going up some stairs with a hundred thigns running thru my head?
Bcuz I sooo did.
It's just...I know what its like to post a message and then wait/worry for an answer/whether you made a social mistake + common politeness considering we were all on the staggered Tattercoats schedule together.
So I thought I will leave just you three a quick note.

Autumn's finally here, it's my favourit season..."
Your Uni (and its gardens) does look wonderful...must have been a fun day to go bk and visit. We are lucky that the people of those times believed learning should be conducted in such beautiful spaces...like a castle!
Architecture, I believe, is the foremost of the social sciences, even above the arts. We humans do spend most of our times indoors and what better snapshot of a society's collective consciousness than the ways in which we design the spaces we inhabit and the uses we assign to them. Take the Chrysler Building. Contrast it with Monticello and there you have the philosophies of both those era without a word being said.
Altho' it can be argued that all "art" aspires to music...what single piece of evidence tells you more about the era of the Esterhazys, for example, when Germany was a collection of small primcipalities...is it Hadyn's music or the rooms he played in?
The culinary arts have changed very little in thousands of years...ok we do have these newfangled techniques developed within the last three hundred odd years...but the basics...bread, wine, cheese....they've been relatively unchanged for the largest portion of mankind's...uuuuuhhhh....yea I realised I am babbling....forgive my creepiness, Anni...haha by now you are used to it...😂😂😂
Well, we never get a distinct fall season here anyway which is why I hanker after it so.
All those beautiful reds and golds...
+ cinnamon + all the other woodsy scnents.
Thank you sweetheart. All the pics, they're beautiful + yeah, fukkin timezones...we never seem to be online simultaneously, no?
Check PM, Anni

Only 500? Noooooooo...😳😳😳 should I laugh or cry bcuz that's pathetic, right?
Everyone must've made thousands of points by now...but I am happy about 500...😂😂😂
I thought I'd have much more by now.
Seeing how I was almost there a month ago + I make like 80 points a month, right? At least this is what I remember. Shouldn't I have at least 800 POINTS...? I dunno, I suppose this is where we get fukked with fractions n percentages n stuff instead of just multiplying by ten.
I am very dumb, Gin. Idiocy must always be pitied and tolerated, you know, because there is no cure for it. One day I should tell you the story of my math teacher in school....it is extremely funny...poor man...
Tell me a little bit about your school/Uni/castle too, if you don't mind, that is...suppose you were phenomenally bright...
Also, @Siobhan, this month I wanna finish (the tourney) strong...which I know is the pathetic ambition of a mordant. I'm currently 30th? in the rankings but the So I deffo want to comply her instructions and 💪💪💪 I am working very hard.
I don't sleep unless I do 150+ pages and (cunningly) they are adding up. If it's Harry Potter I can read 200 pages a day, mostly bcuz I know the series almost by heart.
I think this will be a good month for me bcuz I will benefit from my 45 days read of WoR, which I still haven't gotten round to (#mentalblock) and already completed my 90 days reading of Anna K.
Hope you're going good too.
I especially want all of us lot to finish strong...

But 500 is a lot! In our team, only Diana made it above the thousand points threshold!
I, on my part, have been stuck at 799.9 points for days now! xD
EDIT: well, now that I've said that, I just finished a book :o

You also started the challenge 2 months late. I'm pretty sure you'd be way ahead of me if you had started in January.

I joined the group right at the beginning of the year, and it didn't take me long to get the required comments (it was only 25 at the time). Also, Niki told me I could log in everyone I was currently reading (even if started before my official admission in the team) because it took some time for the mods to figure out in which team to put me (since I was the first to join late). So I didn't loose a lot of points; maybe one book or two :p
Just saw your kind message on my tracker, Zaara! You're such a sweetheart :)So... Here are some of my favorites among the images I've found lately! (view spoiler)
