sorry, girdles haha
Girdles, corsets, spandex...what women do to looi good for men
*look
Oh, and underwire bras
Do women still wear girdles?
yea...now it's called spanx
Yuck
When I was in college [60's] I overheard a conversation in the womens bathroom. Two women were discussing another female student who, apparently didn't wear a girdle. Times will soon change

what is the pantone color of the year for houses, champ?
No clue...totally forgot this year.
I got an invitation to a color thing coming in September though. Will get all the scoop.
phantom: tatami
just went to Sherwin Williams website to see if they had it on there. They say "the loneliest color" (their least tinted) is Radiant Lilac. It's so lovely!
That sounds pretty.
they have a color capsule of the year. have to say I'm not a fan.
of any of them
well actually, there are 4 that are okay, it's the remaining ones I hate
okay, back to babbling
the thing about this grid is that wherever you go you just find the same letters
true
Where you go, there you are!
The S (lower) and one of the T's are giving me grief.
the P gave me grief
still need 2 there
I mean that sounds like I finished it, but I only found 9
i need 2 also
nothing out of the babble ordinary in the ones i have tho
found 2 more
oh, just went on a run and grayed it!
What're my missing 2 then?
oh got one of mine
maybe pa6 which is usually a 5 with a sometimes vowel or a 7 with an s
I have that
the last 4 I found were all similar and the last of the pa
then there's the british pa5 that I just learned about in the last year on UK Ghosts
the one i just found was a 5/12, makes me think of bread
yeah, I think that's one I would guess but wasn't sure how to clue it. reminds me of pasta too.
now what is my missing Q?
I'm down to 13 and no 8's. Weird.
well, you should have the letters narrowed down at least.
Do you have both Q6?
yes, I have 2. thx
Q greyed
she is guessing my missing Q
maybe you need the one that is usually joined to another word via hyphen, like a qu5-scientific claim
Do you have the smushy one?
yes
if it's most of a veggige
veggie
Did you plural the 4?
hokie please note i also made a guess
The others are all variations of a 4
yep, yours snuck in, hurshy. but I have that one.
also pluraled the 4
DO NOT IGNORE HURSHY
cut the vowel off the end of the 6
there is qu + a vowel and yes in spanish
ah yes, thx, hurshy. of course I did that yesterday but forgot today.
'twas qu+picnic pest
thanks, village
YMCA!
well that was a weird R I just made up
upper or lower?

I need that
ends in math term or think of a c word for general food

oh, it's a deer word. did not know that
anagram of the bear one
i got the bear one but didn't know that was the word for deer, yeah
phantom: sunsh5
i have the first, 3rd 4th, 5th columns wrapped up so far
yeah, but you're a super word nerd
can you guess a missing U then ruru?
I need an i
can someone tell me the stat for the lone N on the bottom?
all 4s besides the bear6, hurshy
they're all easy hursh
ok thanks
I think it was ni5/10 carla
ur4x2 and un4, and ur6 (bear)
yes, ni5/10, confirmed
hmm, thx
oh, there it is
name that proper noun! the indigenous spiritual tradition of japan
It must be in grids a lot. Otherwise I would not know it since it's not in my vocabulary
shinto?
ding ding ding!!!
*Bangs a gong for Ru
harigato
I'm dirty and sweet
if I know any japanese it's that it's arigato
doesn't it have an h?
google says no
e caga deska is how are you hokie
domo arigato, mr. roboto.
That's how I know it too
oh.. I didn't know that
same
when I was in 6th/7th grade we would have slumber parties and play that record over and over while playing nighttime hide and seek.
it's transliterated anyway so spelling is slightly moot, so i suppose the question would be if you hear a japanese person say it, would you ever hear an "h" sound there
but who knows if they make an h sound or if it's silent, like in spanish
I'm not touching nighttime hide and seek
if they don't make the sound then there definitely would be no point in transliterating it with an h
well, I hope not since we were like 12
secret secret, I've got a secret
now the song lives in my head for the rest of the day
anyone want to guess my missing right-column A so i can have all my edges grey?
I still need a T and 2 A's there

oh, found an
A
