  1. Chocolate with nuts is the best.
  2. Like someone has to click on it to let it know it's OK to track this user? That's possible I think, but I don't know when I''d have the time to implement it.
  3. We have problems with qualified teachers in Poland too. Especially with science classes like math, physics or computer science. And that's really not surprising when you know that a good computer scientist can earn literally 8 times more in a private company than as a teacher...
  4. Well, there are certain activities that you won't be able to do with the Shard
  5. This might be of interest for you https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dziady?wprov=sfla1 Dziady was a Slavic ritual preformed twice a year (around May the 2nd and 30th of October or 1st of November, depending of the moon phase). It was about communicating with the dead and helping them finish their earthly business if I recall correctly So yeah, Halloween is most likely inspired by pagan rituals.
  6. Why would anyone say that o.O
  7. Have a nice lecture
  8. Ok, so now I'm awaiting Buttercup, Blossom and Kenshin's arrival at Argon's house I'm curious how Buttercup's plan will develop...
  9. Summer was still playing with Henry, ignoring the mild drizzle, when the door to the house behind her opened. damnation it, I must have missed Argon's arrival. She thought as she stood up and turned around to see who entered the garden. She sighed with relief when she saw just some guy wearing a raincoat. It was probably one of the servants assigned to Argon. He closed the door behind him and walked in her direction, scaring Henry, making him hide under the shrubbery again. "So, the Epic is finally here, right?" She asked, to make sure her suspicions are correct. "Yeah, he just came here a couple of minutes ago." The man answered and squatted near the bush. He reached out his hand for Henry to sniff, before he stroked his head. The cat seemed to accept this new human. "No surprise you missed his arrival with such a nice company here. This little guy is without a doubt a better company than any Epic, right?" "Definitely!" Summer answered, uncertain if she should go inside and introduce herself or to lay low for as long as possible. "How is he? Did he gave any instructions?" "I guess he's alright... He sent half of us home, after feeding everyone with cake. Those that stayed are supposed to carry the supplies indoors and make sure the house is in good shape." "He did what?!" Summer asked surprised. An Epic sending his staff home and feeding them cake sounded ridiculous. Unlike any other she had contact with. "Are you sure the cake wasn't poisoned or something?" She looked at her companion, half expecting the he'd drop dead right in front of her. He just laughed. "I think everyone is fine. You can go and see for yourself, maybe there's some cake left?" He stood up and faced her. "I apologise, I didn't introduce myself. My name's Matthew." He reached his hand toward her. "I'm Summer, nice to meet you," she accepted his handshake. His hand was pleasantly warm, in contrast to her's, which was cold and wet from the drizzle. "And this is Henry. I just found him here, but I think I'll keep him or at least take care of him. I just hope that Argon won't find out about him..." "Oh, I think he won't mind..."
  10. It's also worth considering, that there is a species of jellyfish that's virtually immortal! https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Turritopsis_dohrnii But, going back to the topic This night, we had to say goodby to one of the cat's that lived with us in our temporary home. Stefcia was sick with FIP, an incurable virus. She fought with it for couple of months, but eventually her body had to fail We took her to the veterinary, so she wouldn't suffer any more as she started to have trouble with walking and breathing... I will always remember her as a beautiful white lady, that used to bite my nose whenever she played with me Fortunately, at least her sister found a new, loving home and is healthy and happy.
  11. Maybe try a very tight zip tie? Those things can keep a lot of things together
  12. I want your powers
  13. If Hillary and Trump are so bad why won't USA citizens vote for someone else? There are some other candidates I think...
  14. @Assassin in Burgundy you go on a date as Darkness said, the hardest part is over, now just spend some good time together
  15. I'm gonna keep on trying to make funny things with the Shard anyway There is always another hack
  16. But seriously, I edited the HTML code of my post before sending it, adding something like 50 <div> blocks around it with different colors. I like to play around with what the new Shard allows me to do Too bad it blocks some other very cool stuff like text-shadows or rotating text...
  17. By the power of all the colors! I order you to stop with this abomination!
  18. You can protect your posts by placing a forcefield around them!
  19. I better put it in a big, solid border, before it spreads and infest the rest of the shard...
  20. The Unicode is strong with this one.
  21. But... but... Pringles come in tubes and there's always many of them you must feel so lonely without your tube mates... :<
  22. And the fact that all patronuses are silver and glowing makes it even more confusing to me.
  23. I was waiting for Apache Helicopters to show up anyway, to contribute to this topic I must say I don't even personally know anyone who isn't heterosexual, so I find everything I read about it quite interesting. What's the difference between pansexual and bisexual?
