Lobsters are big. Crawdads look like tiny lobsters. Shrimp and Prawns taste different than lobsters.

I can't speak to the taste of crawdads however

Crabs are altogether different. And if you find yourself with a bivalve, you've definitely mixed up your terminology someplace

Cerberus

Hmm...

Right, crabs look very different.

Yamikuronue

Triple bonus points for being sent to the fishmonger in search of crawdads and coming home with abelone

Cerberus

Haha.

Oh, shh, she's sleepwalking.

guides Jolene to corner of room

Yamikuronue

hurries after with a pillow and blanket

Cerberus

Why don't you sit down, dear, while we paint funny faces on your face. You're asleep anyway.

Oh, you're so much better at this.

Jolenealaska

3:47 PM

Yeah, yeah, yeah

Cerberus

It talks!

Ladies and gentlemen, we have a very lively specimen of the genus somnambulans.

Jolenealaska

yeabh, yeah, yeah

derobert

@Cerberus I don't think that's a genus...

I think its an order.

Jolenealaska

yeah, yeah, yeah

derobert

Or maybe a class.

Jolenealaska

3:51 PM

Jeez, I can still do that

Yamikuronue

subkingdom, what is this newfangled nonsense. When I was in school, it went kingdom, phylum, class, neat as you please

Jolenealaska

order family

genus

species

I don't know Y...Ask mrs Huddleson!

Stranger is that I can recite the books of the Bible, genesis to revelations....not willing to type it though

Cerberus

@derobert Oh, my apologies.

Jolenealaska

How 'bout the Prologue to the Canterbury Tales in Middle English? For the life of me though, I can't find my favorite shoes.

they're here somewhere

OOH 8am...decent TV

gnight!

Cerberus

Wowie.

Good night!

You're a late-stayer-upper, I like that.

None of you fixed my typo, you just wanted to make fun of me... I know how this goes now!

Cerberus

Huh, what typo?

SAJ14SAJ

@Cerberus Hey Cerby. how you are?

Cerberus

Good, and you?

SAJ14SAJ

hungry, but lunch will be delivered soon. I am very, very, very busy at work.

We have a new HR system going in in about 10 days.

And that affects the systems and business processes that I own profoundy.

@Yamikuronue We are all cladists now!

Cerberus

4:33 PM

Oh, dear.

And they will blame you if it all comes down in a tumble?

Jolenealaska

@SAJ14SAJ I came here for one reason (back then)...to let you know that you had a typo to fix. I even tried to be subtle.

I failed

but it wasn't for lack of trying

Cerberus

Okay, are you my twin?

Jolenealaska

Maybe

Cerberus

You a) go to bed very late, and b) keep coming back when you were supposed to be in bed. Not that I don't appreciate it.

It's just like watching myself, an out-of-body experience, or what do they call those?

Jolenealaska

you're not the first man to suggest such things

Cerberus

4:38 PM

Really?

It's not specially manly.

Jolenealaska

You only say that because you're not near my bed.

Cerberus

You're very subtle.

Yamikuronue

Anyone else feel like they're spying on drunk texts? ;)

Cerberus

Me!

Yamikuronue

@Jolenealaska You are clearly exhausted, get some sleep :)

Cerberus

4:41 PM

woosh That was Jolene's saviour flying in.

Why don't you grab her with your talons and carry her upstairs?

Jolenealaska

Funny thing, I was about to say the same...almost 9am, that'

s late even for me

Yamikuronue

Indeed! Here it's after lunch

Cerberus

Heh.

It's 6 pm.

Jolenealaska

I came in here for a reason.....

Cerberus

Which is...trying to find an excuse not to have to go to bed?

Jolenealaska

4:46 PM

that must be it

Cerberus

Then you have succeeded.

Jolenealaska

Oh my goodness...

Judge Perez has a very serious case

apparently

the cake decorator misspelled the name

I want to know who is going to pay for the counseling.

dammit....commercial break

Alright, the cake decorator is losing...This time I really am going to bed...Gnight! (day)

Cerberus

soy-free miso...

maybe with a nice side of citrus-free oranges and dairy-free butter?

SAJ14SAJ

@Yamikuronue Does that actually mean something? :-)

Yeah.

Yamikuronue

I found an article about soy-free miso

apparently made from chickpeas

SAJ14SAJ

@Yamikuronue I don't know in what universe that could be miso.

Yamikuronue

hence my sarcastic comment :)

thekitchn.com/…

gluten-free miso makes total sense, it all depends on what grain you ferment it with, but soy-free....

SAJ14SAJ

6:25 PM

My personal favorite is fat free cheese. What do people think cheese is made of?

Yamikuronue

Everyone at work is so impatient today

"Where's that fix?" "The one you just told me about last week? Ready in dev, but I can't promote, the servers are down." "Can this fix go tonight?" "Only if you want to give the release coordinator a stroke, he's already overworked. Tomorrow?"

SAJ14SAJ

You could sing "Happy Kitty" for them...
