Hang Out and Post

[antiaircraft]

Spritzie, at least your chair doesn't collapse when you sit on it. :P

 

I presume JB will show up sooner or later...

[Spritzie]

Yes they do. Especially since it's insanely quiet in here. I want my headphones so I can listen to my music without worrying of bothering people.

[-Ryan]

Lol, that sucks.

 

On Thursday we had a test and someone had a desk that sqeauked everytime it moved. Terribly distracting. xD

 

Oh, btw, this is my 5000th post. Yay. ^^

[CAV of Gang Green]

I hate making noise in quiet places. It brings attention to me during, let's say, an interm assesment.

 

Congrats Ryan.

[antiaircraft]

Congratulations indeed. :yes:

 

And I always seem to end up with the wobbly desk in tests and exams. Fortunately I usually have some spare paper to wedge under one leg.

[Spritzie]

I just want my chair back! The person organizing the move said it was a good chair and we could keep it. This chair fails.

[CAV of Gang Green]

I tend to get wobbly tables as well. But I can't stuff any paper cause they take your backpack away. And I always feel bad if I mistakingly tilt the table and the other people at the table get annoyed.

[Spritzie]

I haven't gone any major tests in forever. One of the last ones was something in HS, but when I did it, there were only a couple others there at the same time, so we each had our own table.

[-Ryan]

I occasionally like bringing attention to myself, depends on the circumstances.

 

For instance: We had to make these poems with a partner(We had three people) and we presented them on Friday. Our was pretty funny(You should've seen the class when we went through the line "I like girls, I like girls, I like squirrels". Guess which part I said. :P ) but in the begginning I accidentally hit a tissue box and I couldn't get it back up on the ledge it was on. I finally let it drop, kicked it behind me, and hoped no one noticed. They did. It was kinda embarrasing...

 

Btw, thanks AA and CAV. :)

Well, if I need to resupply I generally put up a hand and ask for a wedge of some sort. :yes: I'm paying them 10k or so a semester after all...

 

Spritzie, I think I know how you feel. xD Any idea where your chair went?

 

Edit: Ryan, I hereby officially declare that you would be pretty darn cool to meet in person. :P

[CAV of Gang Green]

I like to bring attention to myself if I have something funny to say about the situation (which is almost all the time), or if I acomplished something, which is never. :(

[antiaircraft]

I'm actually a bit weird about attention I guess. I get frustrated if I've been working on some critical component of a system (e.g. timer control routines for a robot) and it gets totally ignored. But I absolutely hate the actual attention if I get it. xD In fact, I think I'd prefer it if everyone focused on the stuff I did instead of me.

 

I'm a bit more comfortable here on TDNF though. :yes:

[-Ryan]

In my 1st hour and 8th hour classes, half the chair have cushions and half don't. Every morning I usually have a cushioned one, but when I get up for a minute or two to go sharpen a pencil or something, I have a regular chair and the guy next to me magically has a padded chair if he didn't before.

Hm...

 

Thanks you, Theo. :D

[CAV of Gang Green]

I'm a bit more comfortable here on TDNF though. :yes:

 

Why wouldn't you be? You are standing here with 11k+ posts, which is the highest in TDN history, and, and, :crying_blow: I wish I had that many posts...

[antiaircraft]

Heh, I guess it's not so much the post count as being among friends. I know you guys, and you know me, so... xD

 

I think it's kinda sad if your post count is the defining factor of your reputation - there are plenty of awesome people here with lower post counts. :yes:

[CAV of Gang Green]

For me it's both. I tend to get bored, so a goal keeps me entertained.

 

That's why so many people race to reach SM. They feel as though the more posts you have, the more respected you are. I believe in a little of that, but at the same time I'm aware that it's been proven wrong several times before.

[antiaircraft]

Indeed. Sometimes I like to believe that people miss my staff bar, green title and the first two 1s of my post count entirely and judge me entirely based on my post being clear and helpful. :P

 

I know I rarely pay attention to anything below someone's avatar, unless I'm looking for something to say when welcoming a newbie. :yes:

 

Edit: And there's JB!

[jumpingbeans]

Sorry it took me so long to get back, guys. I went camping this weekend at 0C (about 32F), without internet.

 

So, from what I see, I'm doing the Secret Santa. I'll set it up in about 1-2 hours, because I've got to go for that time.

[CAV of Gang Green]

I know I rarely pay attention to anything below someone's avatar, unless I'm looking for something to say when welcoming a newbie. :yes:

 

I do pay attention to those mostly because I like keeping track of that kind of stuff. I know I'm a nerd. :P

[antiaircraft]

Either that or I'm just ignorant. :P

 

Best of luck with the SS JB! I think I'll be a-heading to bed now.

[CAV of Gang Green]

Nah. I don't think a lot of people pay attention to those.

[Spritzie]

Spritzie, I think I know how you feel. xD Any idea where your chair went?

 

Nope, I have no idea. But it probably got thrown out. They've been completely remodeling the building over the last few months. (Though she said it got to stay.) *pouts* I want my chair back!

[livvy]

:ohno: I'm sorry you have a squeaky chair, Spritzie. *hands WD40*

 

If you need any help (or a random number generator) I'd be glad to be of assistance, JB. Best of luck!

[Spritzie]

Thank you Livvy. I'm trying to remember not to lean back at all. Which isn't fun, because it leans back nicely, just not quietly.

[jumpingbeans]

Okay, I'll make the topic in a few hours, I just want do know:

 

Would you guys approve of having two different groups? Ex. One group of 5-20k stuff, and then an unlimited group.
