  • @Kathy that okay, i'll be at e-sim shortly anyway

    edit : i mean i gotta need to go to sleep shortly (1 am here!) i'm going to all with some friends tommorow
  • i can hear the cricket
  • @Giratina -- Please delete your age from your post and don't discuss your age anywhere on ABN. @AMSlimfordy
    BTW -- Welcome to the BP!
  • @mvnla2 ok ok sorry! idk about that
  • If it makes you feel better, I just spilled 2 gallons of milk all over myself and aisle 1 of the grocery store.
  • anyone watch Transcendence yet?
  • Gosh @kelani - between you and @fenikus there's a lot of laundry to be done !!! Slightly less spillage than if it were in UK (imperial ) gallons! It would have been 2.4 US gallons - still an awful lot of milk!
  • not me, not yet. Stuff takes forever to get to my town.

    Wow. anyone see the @Xanthippe19 's new insanely high score on #19? I refresh my board and suddenly all of us are down -20k.
  • @kathy please post your score for BR 20, however low you think it is. I'd like to think you're giving the men a run for their money....
  • @kelani I asked him to post his strat, some hours ago. No reply as yet. Think he transposed 124k with 142k. We've all done it....
  • @Mumsie Yeah, and imagine me scrambling down the dollar aisle trying to find something to use as a bucket. :) I wish we had imperial gallons. 1 US Gal is *just* small enough to require 2 weekly grocery trips.

    I've never had a milk jug do that. Both just split right down the seam.
  • I read what @girantina has been saying. Damn girl. You need to find someplace isolated to scream your lungs out till you can't scream no more. If nothing else it will wear you out and let you get some good sleep. Don't do it where anyone can hear you, that'll cause another problem. Things have to get better...they can't get worse. I hope and pray..
  • @hunnybunny I sure hope so. That level bedevils me enough already. Glad you had your bunny eyes open to notice that!. @Kathy is doing great. She's already got a few scores above mine, and I doubt I'll catch up.

    @Kathy what @hunnybunny says. Any score should get you up in the top 100.
  • @kelani nightmares on BR 19 here. Arrgghhh!
  • I hated 19 as well Ms. Bunny.
  • lol @Rat way to go. Scream Therapy is highly underrated. It's weird. Do that in the country or Manhattan and nobody even looks at you. Everywhere else, they'll lock you up.
  • guys, i need to go, my people need me. Bye!
  • @kelani @rat @bernersenn @fenikus although I hardly post in BP anymore, I lurk and follow your BR challenge. My goal is fifth, behind you awesome flingers. Ten places to go. I have a horrible premonition that @kathy will do it
    Well I'll be happy with sixth!
    Edit: @kelani will like me editing!
    @kathy not horrible, but real, premonition lol
  • All I have left to work on is 2, 5, and 19. Yuck.

    edit: You can do it, @hunnybunny ! Get Kathy inspired too and we could go for a BP Top 10.
  • @rat I'm Mrs Bunny
    I hate Ms
  • @giratina bye. nice to meet you, hope things turn around soon, and come back anytime. :)
  • You don't need to worry about me any more @Hunnybunny. I stopped flinging about a week ago. So if you can get above me you're golden.

    So true @Kelani. So true. ha ha Good luck.
  • So so so so so so sorry Mrs. Bunny. Not intentional.
  • @hunnybnny does a Mr. Bunny share this account with you, or was that you I've talked to in the past?
  • A lot of women like to be addressed that way because it gives them the air of more independence. My spouse is like you. She loves being Mrs. Rat. But you two are the exception, not the rule. BTW, celebrated 38 years of wedded bliss a few weeks ago.
  • (or if they have crappy husbands)

    heh @Rat you, me and the f-man are 4,5,6 on #20
  • @kelani Mr Bunny is know as He Who Does Not Fling
    Many many months ago, when I first met @rat, he liked the idea, and now refers to Mrs Rat in similar terms, with the obligatory gender change.
    But Mr Bunny, aka HWDNF, has flung once or twice, and has a score that I can't beat.....
  • I was going to pop in and back out. Things to do. But I really gotta go. Good seeing ya again Mrs. Bunny.

    Edit: Sorry about the Ms. thing. I knew that and forgot.
  • @kelani we've been married 32 years. Hate to rub it in, but marriage is good, if you find the right partner. That "cute" girl will find you one day....
  • @hunnybunny gotcha. And please forgive my odd question. Something you said somewhere made me think you were Mr. Bunny. Sorry about that.

    btw, if you get no reply on that #19 strategy request, do you just flag it at some point? I'm still learning the etiquette there.
  • Bloody hell, so much editing going on it's getting harder to read BP than ever before...
  • @hunnybunny No rub taken. I'm happy for you! 32 years is great. Sounds like you and @Rat are two of the lucky few who got it right the first time. As for me, there've been plenty of opportunities, but none I could see joining the 30+yr club. In that respect, I'm better off.

    You can blame me for most of the edits. Half the stuff I say seems fine until I post it.
  • @kelani well that's an emotive subject. A polite request for a strat or tips is a nice way to start. Most top flingers will (now) post a strat or screenshot to confirm. Some do not. And old scores are difficult to confirm.
    There's a couple in BR that never do, you know who they are.
    But if you're really annoyed / amazed / dumbfounded check out the flinger. You soon get to know the silent flinger from the troll.
    If it's a troll flag the score to the admins, they take them down very quickly.
    And, did you say any score on BR20 would get @kathy in the Top 100. Beat yourself with pieces of left over restoration cabinets, repeat after me, as a penance, Kathy will be top 10, Kathy will be top 10....
  • @kelani I know, my brain is saying one thing, my fingers are typing something else entirely, then I read back arrgghhh
  • Back to the bunny hutch, I'm talking to myself again
  • @Rat -- Giratina, the ABN member, at least, is male. Giratina is a Pokemon character. I had to look it up, so don't feel bad.
  • Argh. I am resisting my overwhelming urge to go edit that post down to 3 sentences. :)
  • I'm with Mrs Rat and Mrs Bunny I hate ms - such an ugly sound! I've been married 41 years and I've almost got him trained now!
  • Sorry, I'm building an enclosure outside. I go work until some blankety-blanking wasp/hornet/yellowjacket starts buzzing me, then I run back inside and post a bit.

    On an unrelated note, It takes me a really long time to build stuff.
  • @Kelani -- I'm not always as polite as @hunnybunny -- I do usually request a strat or even that the person check their score, but I definitely flag ones that seem really suspicious. Since post are monitored, an admin will see any comments made about someone's score, and probably investigate.
  • @Mumsie you hate the mizzzz also? :) I'm not much of a fan either, but us single guys definitely like hearing it instead of mrs. :)

    Not that anyone asked, but what I don't like is women referring to themselves as Mrs. Husband Name all the time. It has its place, but all the time? I start wondering whether they remember their own names.

    Jeez, 41 years. You guys should have a contest.
  • @mvnla2 Less politeness may be a good thing there. I'm glad you can do that. If someone has a higher rank than me, I won't flag their score. Maybe it's from being immersed in military culture, or when I flagged that Utopia score,then got a friend request from the flagee. That still creeps me out.
  • @mvnla2 without giving away any of your much guarded personal life, can you give us an estimate of how many years you have been married?
    @kelani and indeed @all how much nicer Mademoiselle and Madam sound. Or señorita
  • An enclosure for what @kelani? Bats? Hornets? I am probably old (define old!) fashioned. But I hate the modern trend for someone on the other end of the phone who I've never met and is probably younger than my youngest child wanting to call me by my first name - then I insist on being Mrs ..... They don't really care about me - only that the script on their screen says they should! I like to think that giving my first name to someone means something -( though I'm not quite sure what!) but there you go!
    Now I feel I should edit!
  • Or even señora !
  • @kelani please don't be alarmed by this, but my husband and I (anyone from the UK will snigger at that) went to funeral last week of a friend who spent most of his spare time building, very slowly, little outside additions to his house. A very good friend, a lovely man, sadly missed. But he was more than twice your age....
  • I can't use Madam here in the US. Too many bad connotations.
  • Heehee!
