Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
How do you all pronounce "rigmarole"? I have been saying it like "RIg-a-Ma-roll," with an tiny added short "a" after the first syllable.
I say it "rig-ma-role", but I have a board game which is spelt the way you pronounce it ("rigamarole"). This may have a variant spelling, or it could be one of those Commonwealth-Colonials things.
I only use a comb for extreme cases of bedhead or ratting (on rare occasions).
This is so crazy, but I love my commute! I usually take the same shuttle van with the same people, and we've become friendly, but I wasn't on it yesterday at all, or this morning. When I got on this afternoon, my friends were all, "Where WERE you??!?!!" It was nice!
Awww, they missed you.
Matilda's the only person that misses me nowadays.
Yeah, I'm glad we finally started talking to each other! And possibly even more glad we don't talk in the mornings....
Happy Birthday Dylan!
I wish I could commute on mass transit. I really wouldn't mind it if I could work or chat with people.
Pix! How is your back?
I love my bus commute. I mean, okay, I'd rather walk (in good weather), because sometimes the bus makes me carsick and sometimes the high school kids get too loud. But as commutes, it's not bad: only half an hour, and I can listen to my audiobook or podcasts and just zone out. I'm worried that when we move our office it will be to a place not near a good bus line for me.
The transit reminded me- the woman who thinks I smell bad (and is conservative and somewhat bigoted) said the most surprising thing yesterday morning.
She started talking about having an argument with a fellow Christian tat weekend about gay people, and I though "here we go!", and she started going off about how you couldn't call yourself a follower of Jesus without being upset about how people have marginalized gay people, and that the only things that Jesus taught were about love and acceptance, and that he had nothng to say about it at all.
You could have knocked me over with a feather. She says that she personally doesn't understand it, but it is not hurting people, they aren't hurting people, and if they want to make families and be married she is all for marriage. She even understood that churches wouldn't be forced to marry people they didn't want.
