I was going to see if I could get google to translate "3rd goat on the left" for me but was too lazy.

What happened to all of your vowels, Wales?

I’ll just assume the British stole them.

They think "w" is a vowel, and also that "dd" and "ff" are distinct letters. It appears to be quite the silly place.

Nobody working for Amazon, where all employees have made at least $15/hr since 2018.

From my (woefully inadequate) understanding of post-Roman history of Britain, the English are invaders who tried to inflict vowels upon everyone, and the Welsh have proudly resisted colonization's efforts to make their language readable for 1500 years

What's your current top 5 possible destinations list?

I'm thinking about moving to vacationland full time since it doesn't seem likely that I'll have to put in regular appearances at the home office any time soon.

I even noted in the dream that my alarm was set for 6:30 (which it was). It didn't panic me enough to wake me up, though, I woke organically at 6:00, looked at the clock and said "oh".

Usually the dreams, when I remember them (which isn't that often) are a fantastical and illogical mishmash of whatever I happened to have been thinking about before I went to sleep plus a dash of complete randomness.
I remember one time when I was a kid, I dreamed I woke up, ate breakfast, got ready for school, etc. Then I actually woke up and had to do it all again.

So who got nailed by Nanoblocker today?

The chrome extension was sold by the developer and the new owner inserted a bunch of malware. People are talking about their instagrams and other social media accounts being hacked.

I see Google has now globally disabled the extension.

I think I want to spend a few weeks in Thailand, but not for any perverse sex stuff mind you. I've never been to Asia, seems like a pretty good time when they have almost no covid over there. But I'll have to get my passport renewed first, probably have to get shots and whatnot too. My beloved USA seems intent on turning itself into a richer version of Venezuela, yeah good luck with that.

You served us well. Hopefully that doesn't come across as sarcastic because I really mean it.

I didn't consider that it might be sarcastic until you added the proviso lol.

Thanks for all you've done for the group and for me, JMurder3.

These UberEats commercials with Captain Picard are exceptionally stupid even by the very low standards of television advertising.
10-20-2020 , 07:13 PM
Also, thank you JM3 for your service
10-20-2020 , 07:43 PM
Godspeed, jm3.

Why are you stepping down?
