What do you do on Goodreads? Fatness

[Jim]

My problem is that when I get inebriated I'm usually not near a computer.

[Lobstergirl, el principe]

That doesn't sound like the worst problem ever.

[Jim]

In reality it isn't a problem at all.

[Lobstergirl, el principe]

Maybe it is a solution. To PUI, or PWI.

[Jaimie]

Whenever I see a book that looks interesting on other websites or in bookstores I add it into my to-read shelf. I'm always very diligent about updating my currently-reading shelf and adding new books I get into my bookshelves. TC is the group I post the most at but I'm hardly here anymore. When I come on and find a thread here that I'm interested in I feel like it's too late for me to get into the discussion. There is one other group that I post on a wee bit and a few others I just lurk at for book recommendations. I used to lurk/post on the GR Librarians and Feedback groups but they started to piss me off so I took myself out of those groups.

[Carol]

Jaimie, feel free to bring us back around to what YOU want to talk about!

[Jim]

What Carol said, we've hashed and rehashed many a topic.

[Sally, la reina]

Yes. We're pretty willing to drop whatever poop/cheese/ficus talk we're currently (re)hashing and return to the topic at hand. If you need help Lg can be quite scary fanatical strict about maintaining thread purity.

[Lobstergirl, el principe]

It can get ugly.

[Cheri]

I'd love some hash or even some rehash. Not since collage.

[Riona]

collage?

[Sally, la reina]

I think she's talking about the group icon collage.

[Félix]

Junior collage.

[Cynthia]

Land Grant Collage.

[Félix]

Electoral Collage.

[Carol]

I had a note that was taped to a box of donated books - Collage Books. They were not books about collage and now the note is missing! egads

Decollage.

[Phil]

Or...

Décolletage.

[Lobstergirl, el principe]

Are we rehashing décolletage? I once did decoupage.

[Phil]

You did decoupage on your décolletage?

[Cynthia]

I spent years of my life doing decoupage. I even did a big project for the Story County 4-H Fair. Brag, brag, brag. Shut up, Cynthia.

[Félix]

You crack me up.

[Cynthia]

I am one hilarious bitch, Felarry.

[Félix]

Right here in River City.

My problem is that sometimes I get near the computer when I've gotten into my cups. THEN I start to piss people off, even myself.

[Félix]

I can always tell.

[Cynthia]

It's surprisingly obvious. I get kind of snarky.

[Félix]

With a capital S. :)

[Lobstergirl, el principe]

Cynthia doesn't hide it well.

No, don't shut up! Never shut up, Cynthia!

[Félix]

Yes, please don't.

No secrets here. We are brutally honest at my house.

Way to go, Cynthia! Everyone wants to hear these stories, that's why we're here!

[Lobstergirl, el principe]

I just joined the "Perks of Being a Bookworm" group. But I'm alarmed at the number of exclamation points in the first thread I'm reading. Lawdsamercy.

We'll see how long this lasts.

[Cynthia]

Lawdsamercy, Miss Scarlett.

[Félix]

I don't know nothin' 'bout birthin' no babies!

[Cynthia]

Fiddle-dee-dee!

[Sally, la reina]

People who excessively vomit exclamation points tend to be of questionable character, IMHO.

[Lobstergirl, el principe]

Indeed that is an HO.

[Félix]

We look down on such people.

[Lobstergirl, el principe]

From a great height.

[Cynthia]

Félix wrote: "We look down on such people."

Perhaps that is a tiny bit cult-like. Snotty, too.

[Félix]

Perhaps.

[Sally, la reina]

What are you saying?!?!?!!!

[Phil]

I thought the posts to Clackamas regarding scouting were a bit cult-like. They demonstrated an attitude of "think like us or else you're wrong."

[Sally, la reina]

Well, that's because she was wrong.

[Lobstergirl, el principe]

Phil wrote: "I thought the posts to Clackamas regarding scouting were a bit cult-like. They demonstrated an attitude of "think like us or else you're wrong.""

Yeah I'll agree - although cult-like wouldn't have been the first word I would use. Rude, I probably would say.

[Lobstergirl, el principe]

Sally wrote: "Well, that's because she was wrong."

No, she had a different experience with the Scouts. That doesn't make her wrong.

[Phil]

Sally wrote: "Well, that's because she was wrong."

As I recall, the issue was a matter of opinion. Yes, hers was what most of us would consider outdated and exclusionary, but that doesn't make ours "correct."

Oh crap, does that mean I think like an American?
