Is it on your mind?

[Félix]

No.

[Lobstergirl, el principe]

I'm thinking about Alabama right now.

[Susan]

I am not thinking about Georgia right now. I am wondering why we do not have a nature thread.

[Lobstergirl, el principe]

We have a lot of plants and gardens threads. Lots and lots. Some of them are about vegetable gardens, some are about flower gardens, some are about both.

Here's one called plants/gardens:

[Susan]

I have read one about vegetable gardening. Sally has a kick ass garden.

[Chris]

Wishing now that I had a nice garden or green area to visit.

[Laurin]

Disney :)

[Susan]

Jealous.

[[deleted user]]

I remember a thread about slugs.

[Susan]

Maybe I read that one, too. Seems like there was a thread where Bdubs talked about not using chemicals to keep bugs out of her garden.

[[deleted user]]

That wasn't the one I was thinking of. I had talked about the David Attenborough's life in the undergrowth. There is an amazing footage of slugs mating. :)

We need a new thread. We need a new thread.

[Lobstergirl, el principe]

I remember that footage of slugs mating.

Gail, if you wouldn't delete all your posts, your posts would.....still exist.

[Chris]

Is this the video you were looking for Gail?

[[deleted user]]

I didn't delete all my posts I deleted my profile.

Yes Christopher that is the footage I was talking about.

[Susan]

That is some sensual snail pornography.

[Susan]

A McDonalds coffee disappoints me everytime.

[Chris]

Right now I'm wondering why is it whenever I see a cat meme, its always captioned in that cutesy pseudo baby talk? Is that how people think cats would speak?

I always thought if a cat could talk, they would speak in a very posh and proper English accent.

[Lobstergirl, el principe]

I think it just stems from the "I can haz cheezburger" website. But the catspeak has broadened out from there and is not just haz cheezburger anymore.

[Susan]

If my dogs were to talk, they would speak in accents from the areas they are originally from which is New Orleans and Alabama. I sometimes adlib for them.

[Sally, la reina]

The earbuds in 451 were called seashells.

[Susan]

Yes, that was it! Yay, Sally! Thank you.

[Phil]

Right now I'm cussing up a fucking storm here, having just purchased movie tickets.

Our local theaters were bought out by Larry H. Miller's MegaPlex monstrosity. This is the company that refused to show "Brokeback Mountain" because they're just too fucking moral to allow anyone to see it.

Anyway, they've pretty much shut down the real life box office, pushing everyone towards buying tickets online. They also make you SELECT YOUR FUCKING SEAT before you get into the theater. So if I'm planning to meet three friends at the theater, one of us has to buy all of the tix because otherwise we'll never end up sitting together. WTF??? Assigned seats in a fucking movie theater? Suck it, motherfucker!!

So I go online, because it's pretty much the only option for tix, and they charge A FUCKING $1 SERVICE CHARGE FOR EVERY TICKET!

Not a service charge for the transaction, but for EVERY FUCKING TICKET.

Did I mention I'm pissed, and if there were ANY OTHER option within 50 miles I would take it.

FUCKERS!

Oh. And merry christmas.

[Susan]

Soooo stupid. I second the suck it!

[Phil]

Thank you!

[Lobstergirl, el principe]

Yeah that is bad. I heard your wife's friend Richard Roeper saying how great this was, buying your ticket online and reserving a specific seat. He's always full of BS though.

[Susan]

Ha!

Hey, nice righteous new page, Phil.

[Phil]

I should have her call Richard and give him shit for that.

We don't even usually know how many people are in our group until we get to the theater. We plan for a certain number, but someone usually can't make it, or brings a friend. So how does THAT work?

It doesn't.

[evie]

We're decking the halls at the moment . My darling daughter is decorating the Christmas tree. I'm drinking coffee,relaxing.

I am at the Sydney Opera House with my daughter, waiting for the Doctor Who Symphonic Spectacular to start.

Nice!

[Susan]

I am getting dissed by little. I am feeling like chopped liver.

[Phil]

Baking more cookies. My own little is quite busy with a video game.

[Félix]

Scene I witnessed in a small restaurant in Lancaster, PA, several years ago. A family from Britain was at the next table, with a young boy in tow.

Waitress: "Would you like dessert? We have some lovely cookies."

Boy: "Cookies?"

Mother: "Biscuits."

Boy: "Oh yes. I'd like some."

[Chris]

Feeling rather depressed and down and just wanting to spend the day under the covers...but knowing full well I should be making more of the day and time allotted.

*sigh* screw it, its going to be one of those days, whether I want it or not.

[Susan]

Bury under the covers. Sometimes you just need one of those days.

I am feeling rather accomplished so live vicariously. Little finally let me play "cahs" with him, too.

[janine]

Covers are there to spend time under. Don't let the covers down.

We call them biscuits too. The only exception is if they are choc chip, and then they are "cookies".

[Susan]

Everything is a cookie for us. Even the pups get "cookies".

[Lobstergirl, el principe]

I call everything a cookie. Even if it's a piece of pie, a piece of quiche, a bowl of chili, a submarine sandwich, a glass of beer, or a barrel of salad. It's all cookies! May I have another cookie, please? Yes! I've eaten my cookie, now may I have a cookie? Of course you may. Here is your cookie. Now that you've finished your cookie, here is your cookie.

[Lobstergirl, el principe]

Right now I'm looking at my piles of clean laundry which need to be folded.

Yes. You can have your cookie and eat a cookie, too.

I just received a phone call from my brother. I haven't spoken to him since February. I am glad birthdays & Christmas exist otherwise we would never catch up. He is the only sibling I bother with.

[Félix]

Its American name derives from the Dutch word koekje or (informal) koekie which means little cake, and arrived in American English through the Dutch in North America.

According to the Scottish National Dictionary, its Scottish name derives from the diminutive form (+ suffix -ie) of the word cook, giving the Middle Scots cookie, cooky or cu(c)kie. It also gives an alternative etymology, from the Dutch word koekje, the diminutive of koek, a cake. There was much trade and cultural contact across the North Sea between the Low Countries and Scotland during the Middle Ages, which can also be seen in the history of curling and, perhaps, golf.

[Susan]

Cuckie.

[Jonathan]

"The history of curling"--that's a subject you don't really hear enough about these days.

[Laurin]

Sitting at Magic Kingdom, waiting for the fireworks.
