At home I make scrambled eggs for my dog for breakfast as well

Scrambled eggs are ok. It's the beans and sausages that I fear.

 

[ergospherical]

Why do you fear beans and sausages?
I mainly fear spiders, and mercury poisoning, and aggressive horses.

Me too. And I don't even have a dog!

Nothing I would like to see on a breakfast table. And the sausages are suspiciously red.

He went to Paris to meet to-lose and lost. But it was an awful match. Not a single try except that they managed to move one scrum across the line.

Strange that my first association of Scrum is with Agile, not Rugby.

The German word is far better: Gedränge = hustle / crush as on Black Friday Sales.

We like it sweet at breakfast. My dog stays away from English hotels. I only wonder why they call their breakfast continental. I have never seen such a selection of food on the continent.

What is it they eat? Tomatoes with beans ob toast and eggs? Maybe @ergospherical can tell us?

 

[ergospherical]

At hotels I usually get the multicoloured fruit loops cereal from the dispenser thing.

It is a shame. Bieber is (of) Celtic (origin).

I could be brown, I could be blue, I could be violet sky, I could be hurtful, I could be purple, I could be anything you like, got to be green, got to be mean, got to be everything more why don't you like me, why don't you like me, why don't you walk out the door

[my reaction when I've only had this new account for a week and @fresh_42 has already given me 4 infraction points ... is this Stockholm syndrome? ]

2+2. And I changed your title four(!) times before we found a compromise. I find that was cheap.

Yeah but what sounds sexier, M-theory () or Mmmmmmmmm-theory ()?

I haven't counted them, but I hope it was 11 'm' the first time.

Fact is, that the titles are subject to search engines, so icons, smileys, and other oddness disturb the finding process. We have had reports (in both cases) from (more than one) member who complained about 'jokes' on a title in the serious technical forums. We have such a nice word in German that seemingly has no English counterpart (at least my dictionary as well as Wikipedia has no counterpart): 'Welpenschutz'. It describes the fact that puppies enjoy special protection and must not be overly rebuked. We use it for any newbie situation, and since you are now at the old, most honourable University of ... you may have lost your puppy protection. Nevertheless, have a look at your profile.

What's with all the dang Medicare benefits TV commercials?

What's with all the dang Medicare benefits TV commercials?

Funny, I was just talking to a neighbor about this. She said, just call the local SSA office to get started. They will make you an appointment and then help you thru the process. The commercials are for people who can't look up phone numbers, don't have a cell or a computer, can't read, etc. They get the same benefits but they need help navigating the system.

I don't need the dang benefits. And I don't need the commercials.

edit: changed wording a little

Did anyone watch the France x Switzerland game? Pretty mad stuff coming back from 3-1 with nine minutes left and then to knock out France on penalties

I've ranted about Ebay's slow as molasses shipping before, but one thing that equally stinks is the useless USPS tracking. I was told my package got to a shipping center eight days ago. ...Great. ...Since then, however, I've seen nothing when punching in that USPS tracking number.

This has happened a lot with USPS. They suck.

As much as I dislike many aspects of Amazon, they at least have very good tracking and are infinitely faster at delivery.

 

[Keith_McClary]

(Expensive extra cost) Canada Post tracking tells us when it is shipped (or enters the country) and when it is delivered.

Is the World Cup playing in 2022. Qatar? Chinese, Indians still upset when I express surprise that countries like Costa Rica, with 5 million people can qualify, but neither China nor India can.
