Morning!

M.A.R.

Mornin'

Mithical

Zzzzz

Tinkeringbell

Wish I could do that too!

Mithical

Kept waking up in the middle of the night, so kinda tired

LQP queue can use some eyes

Tinkeringbell

I managed to overstretch one of those musles near my neck/shoulder again... and I just had to sneeze too :( OUCHHHHH! :( :(

Mithical

06:20

Oof

M.A.R.

@Tinkeringbell So you stretched, and sneezed at the same time?

Tinkeringbell

@M.A.R. No, I first managed to do the overstretch thing and create a pretty nasty cramped muscle... then I had to sneeze.

I still can't lift my arm over my head without it hurting a lot.

M.A.R.

I used to get cramps all the time

UNTIL I MET DR. CRACKETY POT

Sid

Will the world end in 2020?

Tinkeringbell

feels like it right now.

but it'll probably be fine in a few hours/tomorrow

Mithical

06:27

I thought it already did

Tinkeringbell

@M.A.R. What's the number?

M.A.R.

@Sid That would have been rather convenient. So no.

@Tinkeringbell The caption was small and typed in Comic Sans so I couldn't catch it

There were also a few unimportant details like "SIDE EFFECTS MAY INCLUDE DIZZINESS, DIARRHEA, HAIR LOSS, BLINDNESS, DEATH FROM ABOVE"

Sid

@M.A.R. excellent point actually.

Tinkeringbell

Oh. I think I don't want to risk any hair loss

Sid

So more torture.

A J

06:34

Afternoon!

M.A.R.

It's still 11 a.m. What's the rush.

A J

@Sid Due to conflicts between India and China and USA's anger for China, it seems so.

M.A.R.

Chillax drama bomb, the most significant thing happening to me today is the pleasant drilling sounds outside

If we're not being US-centric, the toughest thing that has happened yet was vague threats of disturbing the normal routine of life for most people.

A J

@M.A.R. and the most terrible thing is happening with me right now is diarrhea

M.A.R.

@AJ Did you use Dr. Crackety Pot's anti-cramp cream?

A J

06:40

Dunno. Maybe someone mixed it in my food.

M.A.R.

That's exactly how you're supposed to apply it

If you looked like Walter White tomorrow it may be related

07:04

Morning!

Tinkeringbell

Hey!

Sid

@AJ I was thinking more along the lines of Pandemic+ N. Korea and S. Korea's conflicts

A J

@CaldeiraG Afternoon!

Sid

India-China probably gets resolved after some deliberations.

A J

Hmm

Sid

07:29

The only benefit of these conflicts are for war-mongering news channels whose TRP is going to rise big time

08:36

@Tinkeringbell how are ya today?

Tinkeringbell

@CaldeiraG Sore, though I can move more than 10cm at a time without pain now...

You?

CaldeiraG

08:53

@Tinkeringbell good, a bit rusty :P

gym has proven me the effect of not working out in almost 3 months x)

Tinkeringbell

I think tonight will be the first evening in a while where it's not raining... but if my shoulder/neck keep aching this way, I think I still won't go for a walk :(

avazula

Sun? Lucky you!

Tinkeringbell

No, not sun. Just not rain :)

CaldeiraG

@Tinkeringbell :\

avazula

Even "not-raining" is lucky you haha

CaldeiraG

08:56

sunny all day here :P

avazula

darn you Portuguese peeps, it's always sunny for you! :p

CaldeiraG

eheh

Tinkeringbell

@avazula I do like that! To be fair, it hasn't been continually raining, but it has been quite consistently raining in the evenings here lately.

avazula

it's been two weeks of continuous rain here

the garden is happy

me, not so much

Tinkeringbell

Heh, yeah. Our garden is pretty happy too :)

@Tinkeringbell @EmC can I get a copy of the deleted answer to this question, just for myself.

Tinkeringbell

Ehh, nah. That thing is deleted for a reason.

Q: How to tell my friends to forget all our past conversations and trust me from now on?

I am 21 years of age and I've been a stupid teller of lies in my past. I've almost never lied in situations where it can be hurtful or destructive. I usually have had spun yarns about past life experiences. Initially, I did it to inspire people with my imaginary stories in which story characters ...

@Tinkeringbell no chance then ?

Tinkeringbell

I don't think so, no.

shoelace

alright :(

CaldeiraG

ask the author to improve it? xD

shoelace

09:22

@CaldeiraG how can I ask? should I ask him/her in this room ?

I don't remember the answerer's name as well

M.A.R.

@shoelace If you know who the author is and they're pingable in this room (have visited here in the previous week), and frame your request in a way that would not be annoying

I had fried eggs this morning. Now I'm in an uh, an egg rush

My head hurts

@shoelace well then, what's the big deal about the answer anyway?

Did you read it before it was deleted and found it intriguing, or do you just want to know what a deleted answer contained?

Tinkeringbell

@M.A.R. Oof. But now that you mention it... I would like eggs too.

M.A.R.

Protein and vigor

If it wasn't such an essential necessity in human life, it would have long ceased to be part of our diet.

Maybe our first ever dish too. Adam and Eve stealing T-rex eggs and getting booted for it

shoelace

@M.A.R. I've forgotten some of it which I'd like to read again. That's all.

@M.A.R. yes, it was intriguing. I'd accepted the answer and then it got removed SAD

M.A.R.

@shoelace Hmm, then it might be OK to share a screenshot at mod's discretion, but @Tink seems she needs a sacrifice to IPS Gods

@shoelace I mean, we're not playing hide and seek, maybe it was not verifiable or trustworthy information?

As odd as that sounds in IPS

Tinkeringbell

09:30

@M.A.R. It's deleted... sharing it just because people 'like it' is not what this site is for, and a reason we delete things.

M.A.R.

Shrug OK

shoelace

it's all ok, I'll get over it :D

M.A.R.

BUT what if it contained the answer to all the life problems?!1 I need to know

Surge of interest

shoelace

@M.A.R. yes, it was like a direct road to eternal joy :D

M.A.R.

Eternal eclipse of the spotless answer

shoelace

09:42

@M.A.R. :D, that perfectly sums it all up

Can anyone tell me is this room for the introverts? :D

Tinkeringbell

what an extroverted way to scare a whole room full of introverts!

Hi :)

CaldeiraG

hello there

I'm not sure how can people still use deprecated apps that have no support whatsoever (because the developer that made them didn't document it or didn't thought about maintainability) and now there are asking me to fix it -_-

Like that's not gonna happen

just move on

And there's an app also made by someone else that left the company a few months ago and now that we need to change it, no one can find its source code

Yay

Tinkeringbell

O.o

CaldeiraG

I don't see any trace of source control either apart from my own

I am currently getting a divorce. I have two solicitors. One dealing with the family side and one dealing with the business. The one dealing with the business side is doing a lot of it as a friend. She has asked if I could get my family solicitor to call her. How do I ask this of him without soun...

@EmC thanks for your very helpful comment. Nice way to be greeted on the site (when I obviously didn't meet the requirements for a good answer, and could have just been closed instead). Thanks for putting in the extra effort
