@izryn There’s something disturbing to me about the phrasing of today’s post (that we “go through 396 friends but only 36 last.”). Wouldn’t most say we “make friends” or “develop friendships” rather than “go through” them. As though IConfidant is implying that friendships are disposable commodities.

I’ll be there!

Did this happen at the OC meet-up tonight?
edit: nevermind… periscope…got it. Thx!

I’m pretty sure this is a coincidence/OOG, but, hey… “The Works” (the company at which SE “launched her career”) actually exists: The Works Consulting

Hey, @maxzumstein, I was also at ZJU that night and can confirm the DLB sighting 🙂 He was with his wife, and I couldn’t really think of what to say without coming across as a crazy lady, so I left him alone.

Yes, indeedy!

So, I’m watching Grand Budapest Hotel tonight… and, right around minute 3:08 I notice the pin on Jason Schwartzman’s lapel…
fast forward to 3:08-ish

…Which makes me go, “Huh????”. And then, at the end, I see that the movie credits this book…

As much as I’m upset/confused/nervous about the outcome of what happened last night… I HAD A FREAKIN’ GREAT TIME WITH Y’ALL!!! So, there, hacker-shmackers!

@thegilded Hope this isn’t a dumb question (I’m a newbie, so…): What about instructions received via phone call? For example, a mysterious voice calls a player and says, “Go to such-and-such address. You have ten minutes.” How should we confirm it’s actually IG? FB message you? I wonder how this will all work under time pressure.

ps: THANK YOU…[Read more]

lol! Thanks, @theladyj. My parents said the same thing to me when I came in second-to-last place in the “Little Miss Speculation” competition, back in ’78. 🙂

Thanks for your reply @shaun. It appears I was late to the party on this topic and that much, if not all, of what I said had been stated already in the “missing Noah” thread. I’m clearly just not quick enough on the draw and I feel, frankly, kinda dumb for posting this as a new thread. *dejected sigh*

Yes, @nothenrygale. Yes. Noah’s the victim

@hazelverse, this is a topic I’ve been mulling over and over for about a week now, trying to form a bunch of personal speculation into some kind of (reasonably) articulate post. This thread is nudging me closer to figuring out what I mean to say. So, look out! I might be about to get “active”! 🙂
