hello all
Morning
hi sukee
morning all
hi kiani
hi, how are you?
tired, but ok. how are you?
also tired. and facing down the last week of good office time. all the moving carts are here
what is happening at work Kiani?
good morning all
I accepted a transfer to a different team, which means my best friend and I can't be officemates anymore bc he's still on my old team and they are moving to a different building than the one I am moving to
so that pretty much just sucks
that does suck
he had to stay late yesterday for a mtg and apparently pulled a bunch of his stuff off the walls and such onto the moving cart, bc I got in this morning and it looks so bare in here now
sounds like it will be a rough day. :(
we have one more week before we move, so there's that at least, but yeah
help with k words please
I don't have any either, sorry :(
ok
I only have kE 4/8
I just found ka4/8
Got it
got the ke ty
bbl
bbl
there is a ke6,30 also
do you have it? clue? or pulled stat from list
related to the ke4
ty got it
was trying to figure out a good clue.
'has a sugar ending' is all I could come up with
hey all
alas, poor spork
good morning all! and thanks aslindy for the ke 6; got it right away thanks to your sugar clue
first pass done! 58 to go. fun grid!
Hi Harry et al.. agree. Finished first pass and its time to see how many plurals I missed.
it sure is easy to close out tiles in this one
phantom: eureka
can't say my phantom.. it falls from your eye
that would be a nice 8/9 combo
(-: ..
ooh, big one. morning all.
hi hurshy.. have fun. I just finished. You will enjoy it! Poofing off to do laundry. Happy Babbling!
congrats aloy!
PS: I did indeed miss a LOT of plurals!
oh i forgot it doesn't take SPORK
what is spork?
it's a combo spoon/fork
like a spoon but with little points at the end
wow, I thought spork was a well-established portmanteau. they must not be allowed in CA.
i thought it sounded like a spoonerism
well i guess if ruru's never heard of it then it doesn't deserve to be in the dictionary ;)
we have some sporks from back when the boys were in cub scouts and we went camping. they might also have a knife on the handle (like a butter knife, not sharp)
45 to go. I have only one ps word - is that accurate?
missing only 3 from one of these big tiles is good, but from the U it is not so fabulous
I have 6 p's left and no PS
well now you know there is a ps, hokie
it is NOT a dictionary; it is a bad word list
one of our Usual Suspects
psork is a combination of pig mean eaten with a spoon.
*meat*
anyone have more U words than my two measly ur4s?
ud4
I have all the us'
ty hokie
ur5/14 and 6/24
and one us4
ty ruru
thx ru
woohoo, thanks ruru!
Portmanteau alert. Someone say penultimate.
closed the u for me ru, thanks
this might be the penultimate comment from me right now as I have to go
well?
well, I was saving the last one for goodbye, but now you'll just have to notice I'm gone
:) was waiting for the ultimate compound. have a good day!
well it was anyway the second last...
comment. not compound.
brain has become more and more disconnected from my fingers.
bye all. 38 to go, probably will not resume.
it happens Harry to all of us.
i'm surprised we don't have more long words in this grid
it took me a long time to find the 8's
too long actually
i've got 1 so far
zero here
The joke of the day is that the word for people who like to use big words is sesquipedalian 😊
what's the word for people who have a compulsion to point it out every time other people use big words
braggart
oh to point out.. i have no idea
well it's not like I use Portmanteau in my normal speech hursh reall
but when you're talking about words... in a word game setting... you can see how it might be more fitting than in the average conversation
i think it's impressive to actually use that word in any comment. it's above my pay grade
hurshy what IS the word for people etc referred in you comment 10:16: was that a real question?
i don't think that there is a word for that, saanichcat, lol
but if there is i would be happy to learn it
oh darn.
we could always make one up
and thanks
Saan, that was a knock at me for bringing up the big word usage. It's kind of a joke between Carla and me but it seems like it's bothering people so, well you know.
we should do that for sure, great idea
oooohhhhhh didn't see all that but understand now
molly, if it were just portmanteau and just a joke between you and carla, if she also enjoys it, that would be fine. but it's not necessarily everyone that does enjoy that, especially when it's the same thing again every single time. i don't, obviously. a joke repeated a thousand times generally ceases to be funny.
Well I'm sure if it had been mentioned a thousand times it would cease to be funny.
after thought, still cannot understand what the bothering is
what i am trying to say is that if you have already made a comment about me or a word i've used, please do not make that same comment again repeatedly.
i don't like having to hold back from using the word "penultimate" because i know if i do, it will be commented on.
THAT is a normal word; I use it in conversation; what on earth is the fuss
this may be my penultimate comment today, very tired,
did you not sleep well last night?
no, was up all night. it happens sometimes; it'sOK
it sucks though :(
stuck n the de/6-s4 ??
it does for sure; however a daily problem. have learned to love the wee ours though, so peaceful
de 6 -24 that is
i'll look, don't have that either, sammysmom
oho, it is a tyrant
like kim jong un
thanks hurshy, a fish, duh
got it - thanks hursh
my father kn law was one
that;s hard to deal with sammysmom
yup
you OK?
yup-thanks
glad to hear it and apologies for even asking
started this off really good but slowing down and not even a third of the way through lol
oh dear, the answer two Harry's earlier question is, no, there are THREE ps words
*to
sk
your father in law was a fish?
ty hursh - got the other 2 ps words :)
Yes Harry, her father in law was the incredible Mr. Limpet.
Thank you Hurshy
or muddy mudskipper!
Ya lousy bum
hah! way to get the esoteric ren and stimpy ref
Now someone is going to yell at me for calling you a bum
I frighten my students when I show them R&S cartoons
yeah got my third of the way there
wtg cheryl

Hello, friends.

yes - I think ru gave you my e-mal, didn't he?
cool...
I will probably be going to Victoria before July -- need to visit a friend who lives in Oak Bay
will check. looking forward to the summer!
Great! see you soon
probably not until May -- don't want to drive the passes before the snow has gone
Sounds like it's going to be a big ole Babble hootenanny this summer 😊
good plan and of course to book ferries, agghh
I will probably leave the car with an uncle in Delta and walk on -- my friend will pick me up. I am sure we can arrange a lunch while I"m there if you like.
Right on Molly; the details will emerge and shock the whole babble group, hahaha!
love to Nan, will be in touch soon
yes - we are all so young and really into the night life scene!
you are???
lol - it's all I can do to stay awake for the flip and play for half an hour.
I'm afraid you all might be too young for me
are you kidding?
taking a break....bye all....
bye pen
bye peng
nan we are major groaners and ancient
ru & ori might be cross with me right now. mouth muted.
didn't get that impression. Right now I just hoping I can get through the memory test part of the drivers medical this year
Yikes, you have to take a memory test to drive!
when you get to be my age you do
I'm 76
I'm only 59 but I have memory problems sometimes
you will do just fine nan.
hope so - my daughter-in-law says they aren't hard, but if I don't make a grocery list, I will forget half of what I need
same here
Now I am imagining Ru and a harem of women living it up in all the Canadian night clubs.
omg who doesn,t need a list, also new book to read for driving test; you,ll be fine
you have a wonderful imagination, Molly
there is a book to read for the test?
too funny Molly, that is hilarious! if you only knew...
it
sorry, it
it is on line now nan
I'll look for it
see you in a couple of months nan; will be in touch soon
* trust the government to post reading material on line for an age group in which half the people are computer illiterate

I'm not a sports fan but if you are, enjoy the SB weekend! I'm great with finger foods but don't attend any parties anymore. Too many people shouting in my ears and breathing my air.
Yeah, I stopped following football some years ago, though I do like other sports
tio be honest I didn't even realize it was SB weekend :)
I'm ready! Go Chiefs!
gl2u BB
I'd forgotten, too, lol. Someone mentioned it to me earlier (I don't know why, after all, they know me)
I'm rooting for The Chiefs too.
cringing phantom: speedo
how do we unsee that please do tell
LOL! I can't!
You're very welcome!
laughing my head off
I just went through a Mork and Mindy time warp and tried "orks"
:)
I don't think it was a plural...
no, but orcs could be
Molly, what are you serving for SB Sunday?
I tried orks, too. even orkan. think it'd be a proper noun, tho.
good point re proper noun
I have oa8 and ta8. Stats for the other 8 please?
Got it. Thanks.
back to find my last 50 words
Happy Belated Birthday, seain!
Go Eagles!!

I don't know about ya'll, but my day has been a week.
well making dinner took a lot more work than i anticipated... ;o)

I'm sorry, pen. I hate nights like that.
me, too....did start a new book and I like it so far...
What are you reading?
it's the lastest mystery by Deborah Crombie....set in England....present day....
part of a series with the same characters...
I will take a look.
Is this the first book you have read in the series?
do you read mysteries much?
On of my favorite genres.
me, too....
i have read all of her books....i also like Elizabeth George and Charles Todd, among others....
And I'm always looking for something for my mom to read. She read three to four books a week.
wow....that is a lot....
I think she must think she has a lot of time to make up.
can't find my last word....dr 7?
I never saw her read a book while growing up.
i never saw my father reading a book .... of course, he worked 60 hours a week for years....and he grew up speaking french....when he retired, he read quite a bit...
