Posting for @scottalanmiller , cutest pic of the day:

Clearing up some produce mysteries. This is a handy guide, and I've already found a couple of things that we've purchased from the frutas lady, but didn't actually know what they were.

@Joy We are waiting for a new cutting board to arrive, after which, I have a lot of fruit to cut and then I can take pics.

@dafyre Umm... yeah that thought had not occurred to me. Perhaps because I loved the Smurfs growing up, and wouldn't naturally picture them being murdered by lava.

I just had a great idea for an AoEII homeschool application. We can all take a different civ or pairs of civs that actually fought each other and play against each other. I think it could help the kids remember conflicts and info about civs. And we've always love AoEII game nights.

Here is more specific info about safe sleeping from a company that sells Finnish baby boxes:

Baking way too many Christmas cookies with my sister, resulting in eating way too many Christmas cookies.

Can't do that this year since our oven died.

We are spending a week at my sister's house before Christmas, remember? She has an oven.

Jensen Ackles & Jared Padalecki, easily the best day off my life at the Supernatural convention in Dallas this past year!

OH EM GEEEEE!!!!! I don't usually care about meeting famous people, but Jensen Ackles... swoon! And you're like tucked under his chin. Wowsa's. Security may have had to remove me from his person if that was me.

Just got muted by someone on SW, but not during a discussion. Very odd. I've never been muted when not saying anything before.

Some times you just rub people the wrong way, try switching hands...

But who, and where?

I'd suggest start randomly rubbing people with your other hand and see if they perk up.... to many grumpy people to know who specifically muted you...

Was it @Dominica who muted you? Are you in the dog house?

Ok, so we have it clearly established here that @DustinB3403 thinks of Dominica as a grumpy person. That is all.

WTF @DustinB3403 ? I leave for a few days and you're talking sh!7 about me?

Nah, just joking. I am a grumpy person.

It's @JaredBusch 's birthday!

Outschool is a website that offers classes taught by independent teachers on a myriad of topics. Here's a link to their "Coding" section:

Been testing out my laptop after the new install of Gecko Linux Rolling Budgie. Install was yesterday, so far not a single issue with it, not like before with Korora 25 Cinnamon. It feels faster, and even doing things like letting it go to sleep and keep running for a long period of time seems to not have affected it at all. So far, all is well.

Yes, I'm interested in how Oslo is going to use communications data to customize the O365 views of things. I'm hoping it's not going to be annoying like with what Facebook did. I would rather scroll past the posts I'm not interested in, but see everything my friends post, rather than not see the posts from people that I don't interact with much. As it is, I forget that I'm even friends with a bunch of people, or have liked certain pages, since they don't show up on my feed. In a work and social media combo, you still need to see everything from everybody.

It's not that difficult to get MW to do what you want, though. You just need to get used to it.

@scottalanmiller Hello IT Staff Member!! Do you find yourself working alone on the weekends? Are you the only member of your department? Would you like to attend a conference to learn junk about stuff and sympathize / complain and relate to other people as over worked as you? MangoCon 2016 - where "if it plugs in or takes batteries makes it your responsibility" is something we all can relate to.

This made me snort.

I think a mango and a pepper. +mango -pepper

Funny story: So Ohioans are weird. To illustrate this, when Scott and I were first married, his grandparents were visiting and his grandfather kept talking about mangoes and how much he loved them, and I was like, oh that's interesting, cause mangoes are somewhat exotic and it sounded like he ate them all the time. So it was years later that I discovered that his Mom's side of the family calls bell peppers "mangoes". No idea why, but I was pretty confused about why grandpa was eating sausage and mangoes.
