Pacific Standard Time; China Standard Time

For TPBM, it’s currently Christmas Day.

[2EmLee2]

Yup.

TPBM is 100% satisfied with what they got for Christmas.

[Szeth Pancakes he/they]

Eh, it was mostly clothes. But I did get House War. I was satisfied with that.

TPBM is tired.

[Eluvianii he/him]

I'm not. I went to bed past 5am on the 24th (technically 25th by then). I have become immune to sleep.

TPBM messed up their schedule last night. 

[Aeternum]

No, not really.

TPBM watched a movie last night.

That’s UTC/UCT (Universal Central Time).

and no, I didn’t watch a movie

TPBM did not watch a movie last night.

 

[Robin Sedai she/her]

I didn't! 

TPBM has something else they should be doing right now.

You might be thinking of Central Standard Time, which, confusingly, has the same acronym.

[Eluvianii he/him]

Probably. Procrastinating on personal projects is still procrastinating I guess. 

TPBM can read upside down. 

[Aeternum]

Yes, mostly. I'm a fast reader so in elementary school I'd just read whatever book we were reading in class upside down  

TPBM wears contact lenses.

They really should make different acronyms.

I didn't know that existed either!

[NameIess]

Nope. I don't wear braces, glasses, or any other form of eyewear. (Except for sunglasses when it's sunny.)

TPBM has no idea what the word "defenestrate" means and is too scared to google it.

[Robin Sedai she/her]

Thrown from a window, I believe.

TPBM learned to read at an early age.

[Eluvianii he/him]

Probably? Idk, like at 3-4 years old but I really don't know what the common age is.

TPBM has short hair. 

[DramaQueen she/he/neopronouns]

It's pretty short, just past my chin.

TPBM has never talked to me before

[Robin Sedai she/her]

I asked you a question in your AMA and you answered, not sure if that counts.

TPBM has talked to me before.

[Thaidakar the Ghostblood he/him]

YES I HAVE

TPBM is a stick.

[Aeternum]

Maybe, I'll leave it up to you to decide.

TPBM has fallen out of a tree before.

[DramaQueen she/he/neopronouns]

Yeah, when I was pretty little. I was hanging by my hands from the tree and my brother, who was already in the tree, pried my hands from the branch, making me fall. It wasn't super far, but I was little so it seemed far and I started to cry.

TPBM is a friggin awesome person.

[Nathrangking he/him]

Am I though?

The person below me is the most awesome sharder of all!!

[Robin Sedai she/her]

Yep.

TPBM has eaten cookies today.

[Eluvianii he/him]

Apple bar thingie, so close enough. 

TPBM gets frustrated when they see wrinkles on the sleeves of their hardcovers.

Does anyone not?

Hmmm...

TPBM does not get frustrated when they see wrinkles on the sleeves of their hardcovers.

[Szeth Pancakes he/they]

I do get frustrated.

TPBM’s parental figure has shoved the dust jacket of their hardcover book into a bookshelf where it didn’t fit, creasing it.

[Aeternum]

Nope!

It's the evening/night for TPBM.

[Szeth Pancakes he/they]

Yup - it’s 9:30 here.

TPBM is watching television.

[Eluvianii he/him]

Playing video games actually. Gotta use the nights before going back to school.

TPBM goes back to school in less than a week.
