@Noon That is something only a genius would say. =)

@avazula thanks for the article, that was an interesting read!

avazula

@Cashbee Was it? I actually haven't read it, just saw it in my feed yesterday (I'm a Medium member)

Will Hunting

And I am a medium. =) No, just joking.

Cashbee

@avazula yes totally.

@WillHunting dont shout so loud. not too soft either. a medium volume will suffice

Will Hunting

@Cashbee I just realised I could also be a medium for heat conduction and sound conduction. =)

Cashbee

3:37 PM

@WillHunting carme dium

argh, too far fetched

scohe001

@WillHunting I've always imagined heat conductors as a metal man with a baton orchestrating where the heat goes

Will Hunting

@Cashbee Did you mean to say car medium? If so, what is that? I was wondering if you meant to say carpe diem instead. =)

@scohe001 That is an interesting analogy.

scohe001

@WillHunting I learned the other meaning of "conductor" first, that was the problem lol

Cashbee

@WillHunting it was a mix of carpe diem and medium

what is a car medium, indeed

How to communicate to my class fellow that I really don't like the fact that they copied my assignment, furthermore, without telling me?"

3:44 PM

@Cashbee Oh I know very few words. I just happened to know carpe diem, coincidentally. =) I would never use Latin words in English writing myself. I do not even use e.g and i.e. =)

avazula

@ExtrovertedMainMan First: that was quick. Second: What the heck is that random text displaying?

Cashbee

@WillHunting I never understood why in english this isn't 'f.e' - as in for example. Why latin abbreviations x)

@avazula what random text displaying?

@WillHunting what about etc?

avazula

Will Hunting

@Cashbee I also don't use it. =) Haha, I am so weird.

Cashbee

argh

you can click link, im not gonna troubleshoot this now xD

avazula

3:50 PM

weird o_o

Cashbee

haha @Noon have a look at the edit that was made after your comment..

scohe001

@avazula when you can't see the user's profile pic, it shows their username. You're seeing the beginning of "Huma Qaseem" as scrunched up into that little square where the picture would be

Cashbee

@Noon ah, you already saw :)

Noon

@Cashbee Yeah, it was pretty awfull ><

avazula

@scohe001 haaaaaan. That explains everything.

@Noon what was?

Cashbee

3:53 PM

@avazula the edit

scohe001

@avazula is han a French thing?

Noon

@avazula They just basically remove what they had wrote (who was already very little) and replace it by the question I suggested

avazula

@scohe001 It's more a graphic illustration of my brain melting down right now

But yeah, I think it is :p

Noon

I usually don't link to "How do I write a good question" but this one really needed it ><

Cashbee

@scohe001 I suspect 'haaan' means 'aaaaaah' in a french accent.

avazula

3:54 PM

Like an expression of sudden enlightement

scohe001

@avazula That's a nice sound your brain makes then. Mine would probably be more "gloop gloop"

@Cashbee is the 'n' silent? Or do French people say "aaaah" with an 'n' sound at the end?

Cashbee

there is the more widely used 'hein?' which means 'huh?

@scohe001 yes, that n is silent

scohe001

@Cashbee haaaaaaan that makes sense then

Noon

3:56 PM

@scohe001 The very French thing to say here would "Heeeeeeeiiiinnn!"

scohe001

Omg it's been yeeeeaaaars since I've even thought about Candy Mountain O_O

I guess the OP saying he/she does not believe in birthdays was just unlucky phrasing for "I see no inherent benefit or logical reasoning in birthdays, to me, they are just like any other day, only that they are once a year on this planet where a year happens to be 365 days". — phresnel 6 secs ago

charlie ftw

@Noon We have way worse in Northen France. In Pas-de-Calais, we have this delightful expression, "Ferme eut'bouc' min fieu, tin nez y va cair eu'ddans" (spelling approximated)

3:57 PM

@Noon do you guys laugh with jajaja too?

Cashbee

@scohe001 i think thats the spanish

avazula

@Cashbee "What's the door?" - "The door is everything! All that once was and all that will be! The door controls time and space, love and death! The door can see into your mind. The door can see INTO YOUR SOUL ..."

scohe001

Ahh I figured the languages were closely related tho

Noon

@scohe001 No, that's would only be for Deutch laughing in French with a German accent XD

avazula

@Cashbee Yup. We just laugh with "ahahah'

Cashbee

3:59 PM

rofl i just google translated 'hahaha' into spanish. Yes, it's 'jajaja'

Noon

@avazula My aunt like to say "Ferme to bouche, tu vas avaler des mouches!"

avazula

@Noon yeaah it's pretty much the meaning :D

Noon

If you want to help OP with their question, feel free to do so because I'm done with them. I feel like I am pulling teeth here! interpersonal.stackexchange.com/q/19981/21067

Congratulations @Tinkeringbell

IPS has been a lucky charm to get a second diamond.

If you want an extra diamond, moderate IPS first :)

Noon

@NogShine Or we just have the best people :P

Or maybe, we are the worst community to moderate so our mods become very good at it

You just need to choose what interpretation you prefer :P

Nog Shine

AJ got movies diamond and now Tink got MSE diamond!

Q: What to do if I forget to bring my wallet on a date?

Two years ago I was dating my girlfriend in a hotel for the first time ever. I was quite nervous but somehow I managed to get myself there on time and we had some happy hours. Everything went well except that moment when I had to pay for the bill. I searched every pocket of my jacket and pant ...

Q: How can I reject a second date idea without ruining the potential for a relationship?

I've had one date with a girl and we both agreed that we had a lot of fun. A second date was set up, but no plans were made. She just told me that her friend asked us to go to dinner, a bar, and a club on a weekend coming up. There are a few issues I have with it. Clubbing/bars isn't really my...
