The OT Thread!! Post Here When You Feel The Need!

I can’t imagine anyone not knowing the answer to this.

However, does anyone know who the person in the blue headband represents?

Just curious. I was a member of the official fan club and met a few of the actors from the show.

If anyone watches Law and Order, this show is where Munch came from. I was in charge of penal inspections.

Parker I believe, played by Yaphet Kotto.

You will find the answer here by scrolling through the pictures. I’m not answering directly in case someone else would like to guess or do the research themselves.

Sigourney Weaver reflects on “Aliens”

It mentions he was a theatre actor, was in a James Bond movie, and a cop in the TV series "Homicide: Life on the Street. The picture from Alien shows him with the blue headband.

How Stuff Works

Why are there holes in electrical plugs?

Riddles and games down further on the page. Yes, I’m a nerd.

I’m also in massive amounts of pain and need some distraction so I’ll be listening to an audiobook and playing games today.

Saw this on Reddit and I’d like to share this here. Is there any Chronies who use Etsy ?

Having been following the Microsoft buying up Activision deal for a while now this specific thing sounds precisely like the sort of thing that the FTC and Justice department is tasked to protect against when it comes to mergers and acquisitions.

Now the fun part of that aspect of these things is that mergers are never “approved” they’re merely not stopped and they can be retroactively meddled with should a sufficient reason be found. So this sounds a lot like someone ought to make an FTC complaint about.

RE: Etsy. It is popular but super crowded too. You really need to shell out a bit just to list your stuff - and not just for physical goods, but pdf patterns as well.

Ravelry is supposed to be better, but I can’t swear to it. There is a way to get free listings, but that is a one off deal, unless you open a bunch of Etsy stores. ><

Hi neighbor.

I wasn’t aware. I love your quote, I’ve used it more than once myself.

Nice to meet you. Thanks, @delenn13 for the intro.

Also thanks for the nice pictures. I’ve had my head buried in books the past couple of days. I needed a break from reality.

Here is a bit of humor I enjoyed. Can’t promise you’ll feel the same.

I saw this and thought of you. After all, the song says:

I’m not responsible for anyone who has an earworm from this.

My mother: I’ll make you fish broth.
Me: Thanks! That’d be perfect and light for fish broth

Fish broth iterations: always include starchy English potatoes, squash, breadfruit pieces, so much that they absorb all the actual broth.

She is a foodie. I just want to not heave all the thing.

Irritable.

Thanks for the chirpy posts. :heart:
