+Slowswift Posted September 4, 2015 Posted September 4, 2015 Honestly, if we're all sort of wistfully wishing we could meet Sharders in real life, why don't we just do the next best thing and organize some Google Hangouts thingies like once a month or so 3
TwiLyghtSansSparkles she/her Posted September 4, 2015 Posted September 4, 2015 In the interest of not drawing the forum into political territory, I won't give all the details except maybe in PMs. But the gist of it is, a congressman was taking questions in a public forum at the local chamber of commerce, and I called him out on the baloney science he was predicating his arguments on. He dodged my points as well as he was able, refusing to actually answer any one of them, and by the end his voice was the loudest in the room as he tried to get me to stop pressing him on the matter. He also tried to institute a policy in the room in which no one would speak unless he gestured to them, which I completely ignored once it became obvious that he was only allowing people who agreed with him to speak. That is seriously awesome. And I wouldn't mind having all the details in a PM, if that's okay with you.
Mistrunner Posted September 4, 2015 Posted September 4, 2015 (edited) Brass tend to be rather good at that sort of logic. As a brass player, I would like to confirm that yes, we are amazing. ...wait, that wasn't what you were saying? And in response to Slowswift, holy noodles I wish I had a Skype.

He doesn't even let my brother voice chat on the xbox.
Surgebound Rainspren he/him Posted September 4, 2015 Posted September 4, 2015 Dude, yes. But sadly, my dad would never let me, if he found out he'd be so angry. He doesn't even let my brother voice chat on the xbox. That sucks. My parents used to be like that until I convinced them that their idea that everyone online is a not actually a serial killer.
Kestrel she/her Posted September 4, 2015 Posted September 4, 2015 He seems fine with forums/chatboxes but like with voice chat people could possibly hear what's happening in the rest of the house. And I mean I get that so But this place'll be here when I'm out of the house, I think. Should be fine.
TwiLyghtSansSparkles she/her Posted September 4, 2015 Posted September 4, 2015 I usually don't watch shows about ghosts and hauntings, but a customer left Destination America on so I caught a segment of Monsters and Mysteries in America. I'm not sleeping tonight. Thought you'd like to know. 3
Mistrunner Posted September 4, 2015 Posted September 4, 2015 In math, I sit next to this person. (Great opener, right?) So we were looking at a math problem, and it included u=0. So he thought it looked kinda like an insult- "You is nuthin." So we decided to figure out what all the other variables were telling us. Well, apparently Volkswagen and the European Union are developing an ultraviolet headlight so that people can see better through fog and will soon take over the world. 7
Haelbarde he/him Posted September 4, 2015 Posted September 4, 2015 I found a living bird in my room yesterday, with the cat that hates me sitting on my bed on the other side of the curtain from said bird. So confused... 3
Darkness Ascendant he/him Posted September 4, 2015 Posted September 4, 2015 Today I remembered a question my English teacher asked me last year. Teacher: If you could be any animal, real or imaginary, what would you be and why? Me: A flying snake, so I can hijack planes through the toilet ROFL
Kestrel she/her Posted September 4, 2015 Posted September 4, 2015 My animation teacher: -sends out a mass text- so how many doughnuts do you guys want this morning each? "42" "27" "69" "386" "5" "0" "200" This is a very accurate poll, I think. 3

"42" "27" "69" "386" "5" "0" "200" This is a very accurate poll, I think. Tsk Tsk. In Australia, our teachers would ask us, 'how much weat bix did u have this morning?'(A type of cereal) and the maximum answer u would get is 12.P.S I thought Americans called donuts bagels Edited September 4, 2015 by Eternal_Radiance
TwiLyghtSansSparkles she/her Posted September 4, 2015 Posted September 4, 2015 P.S I thought Americans called donuts bagels In America, donuts and bagels are two different things. Donuts: Bagels: Donuts are sweet, fried, and usually eaten plain because they come already glazed or frosted. Bagels are baked and more savory (though they can have things like chocolate chips and blueberries mixed into the dough) and usually eaten topped with cream cheese. 1

Kestrel she/her Posted September 4, 2015 Posted September 4, 2015 Doughnuts: sweet goodness Bagels: fake doughnut 1
Ookla the Absent Posted September 4, 2015 Posted September 4, 2015 I like bagels, sometimes more than doughnuts. Depends on the time of day, mainly. At 5:30 in the morning, I think I'd rather have a bagel. By 7:00, definitely doughnut. By lunch it can go either way, but I like bagels toasted so if I'm at home I do that, otherwise probably doughnut. Mid afternoon, doughnut, and neither lasts me 'till dinner. 1
ThirdGen Posted September 4, 2015 Posted September 4, 2015 A donut is a little cake. A bagel is sad, hard, grumpy bread. 4

TCshard Posted September 5, 2015 Posted September 5, 2015 (edited) I have never liked bagels but I'm not too big of a fan of donuts, or anything sweet for that matter. I swear I have the taste buds of a 90 year old.(I'm a teen) Edited September 5, 2015 by TCshard

I swear I have the taste buds of a 90 year old.(I'm a teen) I like bagels, but like you I find donuts to be too sweet. Which was good for me when I worked at Tim Horton's! There was no temptation to get fat!......er..... 1

Mistrunner Posted September 5, 2015 Posted September 5, 2015 Bagels. I love bagels. Especially blueberry bagels with too much cream cheese. 2
