@quid: In case you haven't been following the election chat-room, one user brought up a comment on the main site:
@sai-kartik It's fine if you don't want to answer certain questions, but dictating what other can and cannot answer is silly. — Notsredt yesterday
The conversation starts here.
 
@user21820 I had not see that.
 
3:31 PM
The junk that we get to close everyday is really odd:
-12
Q: What websites mathematics experts answer math questions?

KuppanMunianWhat websites experts answers mayj questions?

 
I love your your comment/answer, @user21820! =)
 
Oops, you deleted before quoting. =P
It was just for fun, but I actually went to check that the website does not exist, just in case it went to some bad website!
 
4:08 PM
The close queue is depressing. :\
Every once in a while, I see a question and think "Oh, that one isn't so bad? Why is it on the chopping block?"
I click "Leave Open".
IT'S AN AUDIT!
Ha ha! :P
:'(
 
@XanderHenderson I know. Same thing I encounter!!
By far, the worst audits are the suggested edits audits: One has to be in zombie mode to fail an audit there! I would love for the algorithm selecting audit posts would include trivial edits that users should reject.
 
@amWhy indeed
 
...And, edits which significantly improve a post (without altering the asker's work or lack thereof) which users should approve. I see bad rejects and bad approves every day in the suggested edit queu.
 
@XanderHenderson LOL that really made me laugh.
 
@amWhy Yeah, that queue is, by far, the most depressing.
 
4:23 PM
@XanderHenderson Indeed. BTW, Thanks for running!!

@user21820 Doesn't rhyme with FRIDAY!! :-(
 
@amWhy Oh I thought you just wanted the "DAY" part.
 
"What day of the week is tomorrow!!??" Rhymes with ....
But oops, I answered my own question... =(
@user21820 There aren't many, so I made some up!!
@user21820 I agree, my question wasn't "well-defined"!
Here's one, @user21820 amWhyDay!!
 
Well, there is PLAY-DAY that is quite close.
But yea, coming to play-day soon.
 
@user21820 Indeed, and part of FRIDAY should be a PLAYDAY (after work, of course!)
 
6:23 PM
Yup. Alright I'm off! See you!
 
@user21820 Take good care! And see you tomorrow on amWhyDAY! =) (Or else, late tonight!)
 
@Arjun ??
I'm am saving that word for tomorrow!!
 
@amWhy , in bed now, checking for some good answers on MSE, till sleep does me and MSE apart ;)
 
@Arjun Fall asleep to words that rhyme with night, but put your smart phone away, first! :P Then you can come back tomorrow and whip us all with all your insights!
@quid I hope all is well with you.
 
6:40 PM
@amWhy ,something tells me i should take your words very seriously and so i'm off for words ryhming with night
good advice tho ;)
gn
 
@Arjun sleep TIGHT! :-) Good NIGHT! google.com/…
 
@amWhy yes more or less. :-)
 
I should warn you that above, in respect to words that rhyme with SAKE, I created a new word: QUIDFLAKE, all in jest ;D
 
@amWhy well, there might be some quid somewhere that is flake.
 
@quid True, I never said it was you!
 
6:45 PM
@amWhy indeed.
QUIDCAKE
 
@quid when quid BAKES a CAKE? Oh I missed PANCAKE above!
 
user434058
For eating a QUIDCAKE, you first need to QUIDBAKE it :P
 
@quid And anyone trying to impersonate you would be a QUIDFAKE!
 
@FakeMod it's best served with quippedcream.
 
user434058
@amWhy Whoa! You just... Well, I know someone was gonna say it before me.
 
6:49 PM
@FakeMod You were spot on!
@quid Hah!
 
user434058
@quid Man. This is really hard. I am not QUIDDING.
 
user434058
@amWhy ::thanquidding::
 
@quid What's your preferred QUIDSTEAK? (cut, mode of preparation, etc.) Unless you prefer to have a QUIDSTAKE handy for any vampire that might accost you!
 
@amWhy quids are not edible. Be are bitter and sour.
Sometimes even toxic.
 
@quid I can only imagine! ;D
@quid Tell me about it! I've tasted your poison! ;D
 
6:54 PM
@amWhy yes you can only imagine because in your experience quids are very sweet. ;D
 
@quid Hah! Actually, I know a quid who is a Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde!! Of course, I only speak of one of the quids that I know! ;D
 
7:07 PM
If one needs British money to pay for a quidcake, is that quidquid?
2
Or are quidquid only used for bribing moderators on Math SE?
 
@XanderHenderson Oh no, how'd you figure that one out! ;D
 
If I do something for quid in exchange for something of equal value, is that quid pro quid?
 
@XanderHenderson Hah! Methinks you're onto something! ;D
@XanderHenderson No, only if @quid does something of equal value to another action of his, is it a quid pro quid.
 
Ah, okay.
By the way, I think that this is one of my new favorite comments on Math SE:
@Brian: Even for an understatement, "a bit eccentric" is an understatement. It's such an understatement that if $n$ is the largest number NJ Wildberger believes to exist, one can still chain $n+1$ times "understatement" and it would still not be enough to describe him. — Asaf Karagila ♦ 22 mins ago
 
 
4 hours later…
11:35 PM
Let us know, @quid, whether you'll be back for a bit, before sleeping. No worries either way.
 
@amWhy I just pass through...
 
@quid Have you eaten? If not, eat. Get to sleep at a decent hour so you can enjoy tomorrow! Friday! Oops this is your tomorrow, Friday.
 
@amWhy yes a bit, but sufficient.
 
@quid Well eat a little bit more, before sleeping, even if just a snack. I know I've had times where I've awakened early just due to hunger (when I haven't eaten enough during the day).
 
11:51 PM
@amWhy yes I shall do that.
 
But here I am, acting like a mother! I trust you @quid, to take care of yourself, though at times we all need a nudge in that direction.
 
@amWhy maybe I'll start to call you momWhy. :-)
 
@quid One final thought about your beliefs about review queues, and for the most part, who should have the opportunities to participate in them, do you think it would merit a meta post, if I were to post my concerns about this?
@quid :P ;D
@amWhy @quid I don't mean posting on meta your own thoughts; you could do that in an answer.
