xD it seems to be the universal constant that draws people together.

Milky Way Chocolate
New York Raspberry (My own recipe)
and Oreo Cheesecakes!!!

*Frolics-Throwing cake around*

I am the almighty cheesecake baker!!
(kinda wants to go to culinary school and open a pastry shop... By kinda of course I mean.. Has too)

If you do open a shop, I promise I will make some sort of excuse to take a vacation in the general area and make a visit!! I NEED your cheesecake! <3

Lucid should maybe buy some raspberry cheesecake for me if she visits :P

:D if and when it happens I would pay to get you up here just to have you try my cheesecake.. and of course all my other sweets. Cause ya know, there is nothing I love more then giving people the Diabetus.

I strangle peoples with their intestines for talking of the sweet sweet foodstuffs I canna have -cries-

Sure Espy, I'll buy you some raspberry cheesecake.....AND THEN I'LL EAT IT. B:

Is it the sugar or the cheese that you can no has Sabre?

Lucid:: That's naughty. Teehee!!

Espy:: I'll mail you some. :D

I understand sabre I really want food right now as well.

-Gives plate in preparation for cheesecakes-

Would you like just one flavor or all of them?

Give me all the cheesecakes :) at 8:23 until then let me gaze upon them :).

Ohhh...celebration time soon? :)

in about 3 hours, but yes. It's only 1:35pm for me at the moment. And my brother doesn't get off work until 3pm. so it'll be sometime after he gets home.

But on a slightly unrelated note, my baby brother got his first job :D

Ooooh, congrats to him! :D
My friend from junior high/high school was on the Today Show this morning on a segment about first jobs.

Ooooo! Sounds interesting! I doubt I could ever get on television... that kind of stuff scares the tar out of me.. Kinda like driving..

Every time I drive I'm paranoid that my front right tire is going to burst... D: the front right side of the car vibrates differently than the rest...but I checked the tire pressure and it's fine so I dunno. I have a long commute every day so I just have to ignore it and pray I don't die.

But...but then that's not buying /me/ some cheesecake.

IT'S GONNA DIEEEE

Lucid :: eeek! That would scare the poop right outta me!
But sadly I really do need to learn to drive so I can finally stop counting on other people to take me where I need to be.

Espy :: Bu..but.. Not if I ship it in a cooler on overnight shipping.. maybe..

Cheesecake can...die? Cheesecake is a lifeform? O.e

<pedant>Saying it can "die" is an anthropomorphism, but certainly a cheesecake can spoil and/or be destroyed, which renders it no longer suitable as a cheesecake, which can be figuratively referred to as death.</pedant>

I don't know if that is an obvious statement, or not. *shrugs*

Hence the "<pedant>" tag :P

Interesting...that will have to be my new word for the day.

I think my word for the day is anthropomorphism. A word I have actually only used a few times.

ELI5 what that word means please.

Which word, "anthropomorphism"?

It means to treat something that isn't human as if it were human in some way. For example, having a talking animal in a story is an anthropomorphism, because animals can't talk, but humans can.

Ohhh. For some reason I thought that it might mean giving the traits of an animal to a human. Thanks for the answer.

I think there was a term for that...but I can't recall/find it at the moment. ;~;

Not from myself, though I don't know if anyone is still competing...

Nope, that's a common misconception -- that's the reverse of anthropomorphism. The term for it is "zoomorphism" but it's not used very often. The mistake is so popular that the word in common use essentially means both directions.

(I wonder if "zoomorphism" is used by anthropologists researching things like shamans who would dress up to channel animal spirits.)

Hi! *Hugs the Ginger-fish*

So how bout dem trades?

I could've /sworn/ Ginger's fish-thing was yellow just a few hours ago.

*Feeds Ginger PPJ Sammiches by hand*

That was a great thing you pulled off, Coda. :) *Hugs*

It was down long enough to make me very angry. I am sad to say I used unkind words to the tech support guy I had to talk to...although only briefly and not directly at him, more expressing my opinion of the overall situation.

I'm working on solutions to improve server reliability... The host is proving to be less reliable than I would like.


Also, trade improvements are a glorious thing. :D

Yes, Yes we do Coda….. I recall having to explain the difference on a test once because our professor told us if we got it wrong she would call us by an animal name for the rest of the semester. I had many a class mate that got called a talking Donkey for the rest of the year.
