Chat thread 43: Oh how time flew by?

JeffCvt · Post by **JeffCvt** » Sat Jun 20, 2015 4:44 pm

Well, we don't USUALLY vote on names. At least, most past chat threads were not voted names. The mods just kinda went with a name, usually based on what whatever the current chat is at the end of it.

I like the voting for names though. If the other mods don't mind it either, I'll probably try to make it the usual thing.

I reserve the right to name 44. Otherwise, this is your forum, you make the rules. *giggles*

How about naming it Chat Thread 43: When Mods Collide?

I am curious now as to why you want to name 44. But I will wait for that surprise

Everyone must now refer to Diss as "Mr.Squirrel man dude" while in the chat thread.

I know we had 44 reserved for a time, but I'm pretty sure the reason I'm thinking of is no longer relevant. *Shruggs* Guess we'll just have to have a thread and a half of chat before we find out.

Save that for the vote at the end of this thread. I like it.

Funnily enough, I think the chat thread tend to last longer nowadays. Back when I joined in 2011, the chat thread then got to its maximum capacity quite quickly. But then again, the HP community back then is much more active and these free chat apps like Whatsapp and LINE were not available yet. Some of the old members back then are not around here anymore. I would've left as well, but I'm stupidly loyal to something once I'm dedicated to it, so I always come back in the end, heh.

Change of topic go! *shot* Have you guys seen the Google doodle today? It's very cute, especially the wolf cub howling and tipping over following its dad xD

Meanwhile, we get the summer solstice one.
It's not bad, just has a concerning lack of cute wolf cubs

I've had it reserved since 2010 'cause 44 is my favorite number.

That's a long time to have naming the chat thread reserved. I remember 2010. I graduated from high school and now I miss it.

Good times.

So did you guys have a good father's day?

My father didn't bother to celebrate Father's Day. He was at the gym all day.

This is the same man who bought my mother a shower caddy for Mother's Day several years ago.

Post by **Hlaoroo** » Mon Jun 22, 2015 6:56 pm

Father's day isn't until September here.

Civilization · Post by **Civilization** » Mon Jun 22, 2015 7:01 pm

I don't have a father to celebrate with, so I went over to a friend's house to celebrate with him and his father in our own special way, by doing nothing... But I did bum his computer and internet to come on the forum, I'm a great friend.

Mon Jun 22, 2015 11:54 pm

my brother and I were staffing a convention, but we called and said happy father's day.
a break from us is enough if a gift

Post by **Sleet** » Mon Jun 22, 2015 11:58 pm

I don't have a father either but hey, I worked anyway!

Whozjama · Post by **Whozjama** » Tue Jun 23, 2015 12:25 am

He asked me what I was getting him right as we were going to get the ice cream cake that I hadn't told him about yet. It was delicious.

Jacey · Post by **Jacey** » Wed Jun 24, 2015 1:40 am

My fathers day was okay.
Though I have been rather avoiding talking about it as I have so many friends now who either lost their fathers or are not in the best relationship with them. I don't want them feeling bad.

So here's a question. I just came back from a Fathom Event screening of the 40th anniversary re-release of Jaws (which was great by the way), and I was wondering, have any of you guys went to a Fathom Event screening before?

Jacey · Post by **Jacey** » Thu Jun 25, 2015 12:14 am

I haven't, but I totally want to. is it fun?

a few, mostly anime movies. and I'm pretty sure the final Monty Python Mostly Live show was a fathom event

I had Reese's for the first time today.

Mind. Blown.

JeffCvt · Post by **JeffCvt** » Sat Jun 27, 2015 12:57 pm

They are one of my few weaknesses when it comes to chocolate. Or, well... candy in general.

Douglas Collier · Post by **Douglas Collier** » Sun Jun 28, 2015 5:58 pm

Has anyone ever played the party game "Werewolf"? I played a game of it last night with the setting being a furry convention. Hard to tell who all are the weres when everybody's dressed up as anthropomorphic animals.

Post by **Sleet** » Mon Jun 29, 2015 12:32 am

I played it literally once, and we stopped because we had too few people for it to work.

I have played The Resistance, however, which is fairly similar and works with fewer people. It's lots of fun! And kills friends' trust.

I've played many times, it's one of the staples of late night at a convention. No panels going on? play werewolf in the tabletop room.

Amazee Dayzee · Post by **Amazee Dayzee** » Mon Jun 29, 2015 2:51 pm

I take it they don't have Reese's in Malaysia kuro?

kurowolfe · Post by **kurowolfe** » Mon Jun 29, 2015 4:33 pm

It's rare. I mean, Mars bars and Snickers and Daim are pretty common to the point that my mum ate those during her teenage years in the early 80s. Reese's not so much. Even the ones I found were imported from Thailand, for the South East Asia market I think.

Amazee Dayzee · Post by **Amazee Dayzee** » Mon Jun 29, 2015 11:04 pm

I cannot imagine living in a country that doesn't have Reese's. X_________X

Post by **Sleet** » Tue Jun 30, 2015 11:38 am

I can. You just find actually good peanut butter cups.

kurowolfe · Post by **kurowolfe** » Tue Jun 30, 2015 12:07 pm

Peanut butter is not a staple here anyway, so peanut butter cups are generally non-existent. I personally don't care much for chocolate, but the Reese's was a completely new experience for me, and a good one at that! Too bad it was a little too expensive; I could buy a complete lunch with rice with that amount of money.

What other kind of cups exist anyway?

Amazee Dayzee · Post by **Amazee Dayzee** » Tue Jun 30, 2015 4:25 pm

There is a brand called Palmer that specializes in holiday peanut butter cups with different foils and shapes for the holiday seasons as well as many regional candy companies also have versions of the peanut butter cup.

I think he was talking about PEANUT BUTTER cups though.

Can I just say that I love Amazee Dayzee's avatar?

JeffCvt · Post by **JeffCvt** » Wed Jul 01, 2015 9:40 pm

No Sleet, you are not allowed to just say how much you love Amazee's avatar. You must add something else to your post to offset the fact that now EVERYONE will notice her new avatar which is rather fitting for her name.

Jacey · Post by **Jacey** » Thu Jul 02, 2015 3:19 am

It is a nice avatar indeed.

Invisan · Post by **Invisan** » Thu Jul 02, 2015 7:43 am

We don`t have Reeses here in Germany. But they are imported in some stores but that costs a fortune. Even though Peanut Butter is not wide spread here.

I for myself have no problems with them being not available. What i really dislike though is that the Original Jelly Belly Beans are god muffins and cookies expensive here. And i really love them.
There are a few other american candies i like, like Twizzlers filled twists (the only ones i like the others taste like meh.). I dont really get the licorice affection in America though.
Another thing i wanted to taste after i watched the Movie Zombieland was Twinkies. And thanks to a friend of mine who travelled to America i finally got my hands on em.
They didnt taste as good as i thought they did but they did taste pretty good ^^
