[9:33
AM] Mr. Brown:
Today
I'm getting a crown.
Not
the fun kind though.
[9:33
AM] Mr. McGreen:
Like,
not Burger King?
[9:33
AM] Mr. Brown:
Correct
Like
a tooth crown.
I
take a long time to get numb too.
Always
fun going to dentist.
[9:34
AM] Mr. Blue:
Will
it be gold at least?
[9:34
AM] Mr. Brown:
No
White
[9:34
AM]
“I'm
going to the dentist and getting a (costs as much as a royal) crown.”
[9:34
AM] Mr. McGreen:
I
wont get a gold crown, not after seeing Leprachaun.
[9:35
AM] Mr. Brown:
My
luck I'd get a crown like that and I will be allergic to gold or
something.
[9:30
AM] Mr. McGreen:
Who's
that girl they called Shovel Face?
Len
calls her the Countess of Katzenjammer
[9:35
AM]
Shovel
Face?
[9:35
AM] Mr. McGreen:
Yeah,
I never met her
[9:35
AM] Mr. Brown:
She
worked in HR for a bit if I'm thinking of same person.
[9:35
AM] Mr. McGreen:
*shrug*
[9:35
AM] Mr. Brown:
She
was great.
[9:36
AM] Mr. McGreen:
Never
met her
[9:37
AM]
Still
in the staffboard pics? No clue
[9:38
AM] Mr. Brown:
Probably
the old one.
[9:39
AM]
Is she one
of these great old ones?

[9:39
AM] Mr. McGreen:
*cough*
NERD *cough*
LOL
[9:42
AM]
I'm
enough of a nerd to correct you that I'm a geek, sir
Granted
I'm a different kind of geek than most.
[9:43
AM] Mr. McGreen:
But
Are
you a Knucklehead McSpazatron?
[9:43
AM]
Neither
of those...
[9:43
AM] Mr. Brown:
We
should come up with a new term to describe what we are.
[9:43
AM] Mr. McGreen:
Goofy
Goober?
Siwwy
Goothe?
[9:44
AM]
(moves
Goofy to "Acceptable" column under subsection "Grump")
Anthro-Mystic
Goofball
?
(considers)
That's pretty darned close, really.
[9:47
AM] Mr. Brown:
We
are the Polymath Geeks
[9:48
AM]
You
might be.
“Goofball”
doesn't work...
Anthro-Mystic
Trickster
There.
I'm
that kinda geek.
[9:50
AM] Mr. McGreen:
Hey
Mr. Silver. Based on personal experience...how far apart should
contractions be for me to leave work and head home...
[9:50
AM]
Yours
or hers?
[9:50
AM] Mr. McGreen:
Hers
[9:51
AM] Mr. Brown:
At
2 inches apart, I would hit the bathroom
[9:51
AM] Mr. McGreen:
Oh
yeah, you have kids too
LOL
[9:51
AM]
I
only have one and we had some oddities. Go with Mr. Brown on
this one.
[9:51
AM] Mr. Brown:
I
know nothing of Contractions to be honest.
I
would Google it
LOL
[9:52
AM] Mr. McGreen:
Mr.
Blue, are you familiar with contractions? You know all kinds of
things.
[9:52
AM]
Contractions
are words like "don't", "can't", and "OHMYGODIMINLABORN'T!"
[9:52
AM] Mr. Brown:
5
mins apart and if it lasts for an hour is what stuck out in my mind.
Google says so also.
[9:52
AM]
You
hear 5 mins a lot in baby stuff.
I
think that's your cultural shortcut
[9:53
AM] Mr. Blue:
I
just know that there's never as much urgency as the movies show.
[9:53
AM]
Well...rarely...
Maybe
if you have a 20-Minute Toaster girl...
But
that's not very common
[9:53
AM] Mr. McGreen:
LOL
[9:54
AM] Mr. McGreen:
Do
you just have Silver Jr.?
[9:55
AM]
Yes
[9:55
AM] Mr. McGreen:
How
old is he?
[9:55
AM]
In
3 days he'll be 13
[9:56
AM] Mr. McGreen:
Uh
oh
[9:56
AM]
(extends
throttling hands) We'll see if he gets there...
[9:56
AM] Mr. McGreen:
Then
you need The Talk
DUN
DUN DUNNNN
[9:57
AM]
"Son...could
you tell me where you came from? I'm curious how it works."
[9:57
AM] Mr. Blue:
I
know I was a C Section and very late.
Supposed
to be born 1st of April... Held out until the 13th.
[9:57
AM] Mr. Brown:
Hahah
I
took a while too.
[9:57
AM] Mr. McGreen:
Procrastinators
[9:57
AM]
For
a while I (and later Mrs. Silver) would steal a line from M.A.S.H.
about the character Radar and tell people we made Silver Jr. from a
kit.
It
turned out the lad was actually confused about the validity of this
idea for a while.
[7/17/2017
2:10 PM] Mr. Brown:
He
apparently can speak clear English.
He
chooses not too because his voice is his work.
[7/17/2017
2:29 PM] Mr. Blue:
He
probably has to put in effort to speak clear English
I
do think his accent has gotten worse as he's gotten older
Probably
just a lazy thing
[7/17/2017
2:30 PM] Mr. Brown:
Well,
when you are in another culture for a long enough time, your accent
will fade
naturally
But
I also think that does not happen to everybody.
[7/17/2017
2:39 PM] Mr. Blue:
I
think it depends how late you learn the language too.
My
grandma never lost her German accent but I also don't think she cared
to.
But
she didn't learn English until her teens, and didn't immerse herself
until mid 20s
Her
brain was probably already permanently wired for German.
[7/17/2017
2:42 PM]
With
all of those wires strictly measured and and arranged in perfect
angles and curves.
[7/17/2017
2:42 PM] Mr. Blue:
And
punctual
I
saw a friend of my grandma's the other day... She's in her 80s and
still extremely German.
Very
direct and almost comes off as rude, but it's not rudeness...it's
German-ness.
Very
direct... no chit-chat...
[7/17/2017
2:58 PM]
You can
practically hear these women go "ding!" when cooking is
finished, huh?
[7/17/2017
2:58 PM] Mr. Brown:
LOL
