Not bad, but why are you determined to move to a smaller, more expensive apartment?

Weird. There's nothing wrong with my HTML, but this post just won't post.

oh, sorry: sandbox only allows two images per post.

Happy payday, once-a-monthers!

― JordanC (JordanC), Wednesday, 1 November 2006 14:01 (seventeen years ago) link

Ah, but payday was yesterday. Today is paythemanday.

What happens when a debit card expires? Should my bank have sent me another one already?

― danno martinez (danno martinez), Wednesday, 1 November 2006 15:02 (seventeen years ago) link

I don't get paid until Friday. Which means I packed a lunch again. But my pay schedule works out great this month: I get paid on the third, then the 17th, and then again on December 1, which means that December rent can come out of *that* check, and November is all freed up to buy housewares.

I have decided to buy that jute rug after all. The big green rug will match my bedroom much better than my living room. I want black, simple, almost severe.

― whoop de doodle (kenan), Wednesday, 1 November 2006 15:15 (seventeen years ago) link

The bank should automatically send you one - you should call them if they haven't, Dan.

Happy Samhain/All Saints Day/All Hallows' Day, everybody.

― jenny (pullapartgirl), Wednesday, 1 November 2006 15:23 (seventeen years ago) link

Wait, Samhain was yesterday. Fucking pagans.

― jenny (pullapartgirl), Wednesday, 1 November 2006 15:25 (seventeen years ago) link

Fucking Catholics.

oh, hey jenny, guess what i have in a crockpot waiting for me when i get home from work today?

― otto midnight (otto midnight), Wednesday, 1 November 2006 15:50 (seventeen years ago) link

Ohioans, tell me about Barberton.

xpost - a human head?

― jenny (pullapartgirl), Wednesday, 1 November 2006 15:52 (seventeen years ago) link

no, i'll give you a hint. it has chicken, chicken broth, 2 medium sweet potatoes, 1 onion, some spices, and is on low heat until i get home.

― otto midnight (otto midnight), Wednesday, 1 November 2006 15:55 (seventeen years ago) link

I looked at a cheap, warm, spacious apartment last night but I'm not taking it because it was already furnished and decorated with the other tenants' stuff and they would never make space for me (except in my own room). Grrr.

― Laurel (Laurel), Wednesday, 1 November 2006 16:15 (seventeen years ago) link

cheap, warm, and spacious. only pick two.

― otto midnight (otto midnight), Wednesday, 1 November 2006 16:22 (seventeen years ago) link

and hey jenny, now that i've had some coffee and have thought about it, should i have cooked the chicken before putting it in the soup?

― otto midnight (otto midnight), Wednesday, 1 November 2006 16:23 (seventeen years ago) link

I dreamed I went to see Xiu Xiu. I think it was at the Metro. The whole band came out, and then Jamie Stewart came out and howled, "THIS IS WHAT IT MEANS TO BE ME!" And then he took a shit on the stage. Then he left the stage, and the band followed him, and the show was over. As the crowd made its way out, there were many murmurs of how excellent the show was.

The end.

NSNSNSNNSNSNSNS -- when do you play on Friday?? I seem to recall the number 7, as in PM, but is that doors only? When's yr set?

― Laurel (Laurel), Wednesday, 1 November 2006 16:31 (seventeen years ago) link

lol @ xiu xiu as gg allin

― danno martinez (danno martinez), Wednesday, 1 November 2006 16:33 (seventeen years ago) link

Ohioans, tell me about Barberton.
Barberton is a shitpit. It's not as bad as Youngstown but is still a craptastic place to live. My HS history teacher was named Chuck Buck and taked constantly about the Barberton Beautification Committee.

― Armando Grouse (Armando ), Wednesday, 1 November 2006 16:38 (seventeen years ago) link

Ok, there are worse places on Earth, but it's not a place I want to settle down.

― Armando Grouse (Armando ), Wednesday, 1 November 2006 16:39 (seventeen years ago) link

Or visit.

― Armando Grouse (Armando ), Wednesday, 1 November 2006 16:39 (seventeen years ago) link

taked = talked

― Armando Grouse (Armando ), Wednesday, 1 November 2006 16:40 (seventeen years ago) link

people's names be confusing me. hi armando.

i was primarily west, with midland and boston not too far behind. if midland means midwest, i've lived in all three areas.

― JuliaA (JuliaA), Wednesday, 1 November 2006 16:46 (seventeen years ago) link

Otto -- no, the chicken will cook over the time it's in the crock pot. That's the beauty. When it's done you should be able to shred it easily too, to avoid chunks.

Midland usually means midwest.

Hi Juuuuuuuuuuuuulia.

― Armando Grouse (Armando ), Wednesday, 1 November 2006 16:47 (seventeen years ago) link

Nope, Kevin. You did the right thing putting the chicken in raw.

Just like Amanda said.

I figured Barberton would be a shitpit, but that's probably my bias against small towns in that general are of the country. It was the home of a big time solidarity union movement in the 1930s, didja know?

― jenny (pullapartgirl), Wednesday, 1 November 2006 16:49 (seventeen years ago) link

Yeah, doesn't surprise me. Lotsa factories around there at that time. Not anymore though. My friend's sister lives right "downtown" and it's really cute for about 2.5 minutes, then the charm wears off and you realize that there's nothing there but a diner, a pharmacy and a photography studio with faded pictures of slutty high school girls from the early '90s in the window. Unless you're very happy with your family and have a rich homelife, that's not a place to live.

― Armando Grouse (Armando ), Wednesday, 1 November 2006 16:52 (seventeen years ago) link

Similarly, AA started in Akron! Hey-o!

What American accent do you have? Your Result: The Inland North

You may think you speak "Standard English straight out of the dictionary" but when you step away from the Great Lakes you get asked annoying questions like "Are you from Wisconsin?" or "Are you from Chicago?" Chances are you call carbonated drinks "pop."

The Midland The Northeast Philadelphia The South The West Boston North Central

― jaymc (jaymc), Wednesday, 1 November 2006 16:55 (seventeen years ago) link

Hmmm... According to that test, I have a good voice for TV or radio, it says. I'm midland first, then Philadelphia. Makes sense. I tried to modulate all of the strange southern Delaware pronunciations out of my speech (like "far" for fire and "boosh" for bush and long-O dog, although I still cling to some Delaware phrasings, like quarter of seven instead of quarter to seven and "get a bath" instead of "take a shower") but I still sometimes stress the "awwww" sounds in coffee, dog, pause, words like that.

― jenny (pullapartgirl), Wednesday, 1 November 2006 16:56 (seventeen years ago) link

John, you got that because you insist on mispronouncing "horrible."

― jenny (pullapartgirl), Wednesday, 1 November 2006 16:56 (seventeen years ago) link

For the last time, the word has an O in it. Why would the vowel sound of "whore" be pronounced differently just because it starts with a "wh-" instead of an "h-"?

― jaymc (jaymc), Wednesday, 1 November 2006 16:58 (seventeen years ago) link

You guys.

― Armando Grouse (Armando ), Wednesday, 1 November 2006 16:59 (seventeen years ago) link

What American accent do you have? Your Result: Boston

You definitely have a Boston accent, even if you think you don't. Of course, that doesn't mean you are from the Boston area, you may also be from New Hampshire or Maine.

The West The Midland North Central The Northeast Philadelphia The Inland North The South What American accent do you have?

did that work, i'm gonna guess no right away.

― otto midnight (otto midnight), Wednesday, 1 November 2006 17:01 (seventeen years ago) link

which is odd because my accent, at this point, is vestigal at best.

― otto midnight (otto midnight), Wednesday, 1 November 2006 17:02 (seventeen years ago) link

Lots of words with the same vowel/consonant pairings are pronounced different. It's the rich pageant of the English language, my man. I mean, it's cool. I'm still your friend even though you're totally wrong about this.

― jenny (pullapartgirl), Wednesday, 1 November 2006 17:03 (seventeen years ago) link

Give me examples.

Btw, I like that quiz because I felt super-confident about all the answers.

― jaymc (jaymc), Wednesday, 1 November 2006 17:04 (seventeen years ago) link

I'm with John on "horrible".

― danno martinez (danno martinez), Wednesday, 1 November 2006 17:05 (seventeen years ago) link

You definitely have a Boston accent, even if you think you don't.

I think it's more that they make you think about how you would say things, rather than just say them, though.
