Though i can't say anything, this is a quote somebody put online from me on IRC 15 years ago:
#602223 +(1497)- [X]
(TarAldarion) just a bit shocked that my roommate is pregnant
(Ruu) was it a shock to her also?
(TarAldarion) dunno yet
(TarAldarion) havnt talked to her
(TarAldarion) read her blog
I would like to see the timeline on that exchange. A time stamp tells a lot, a short burst frequency which looks the case here, or a lapse on no reply best txt again. Ruu seems a pretty cool customer.

On a similar but related topic, are there a lot of people out there who haven't had sex for 2 months I wonder?"We are not Europeans. Those people on the continent are freaks."

that's it, right?
It's not mad big bang moment
You'd be surprised at the amount of people using the 'homewares' category to reopen. My entire industry is back on Mon pretty much.I hold silver in tit for tat, and I love you for that

And I'd say most of my friends have been at house parties the last few weeks.

Dr Holohan has said from Monday gatherings of four are limited to outdoor settings and people should continue to maintain social distancing.
However, he clarified that gatherings of four are not limited to parks and may also include garden settings.
But he added that is provided "people maintain a common sense adherence to the public health guidelines.
"It would be wrong to say that couldn't be in someone's back garden," according to Dr Holohan.
However, he said BBQs are still not permitted under current guidelines

Last week I was heading over to the shop, was getting the kids Calippos. Asked her did she want anything and she clearly said a choc ice.
Got back with the choc ice and she says 'wtf is that, where's me Feast?'
Still arguing with me today that she said Feast.

Yeah, I know, get a great deal of stuff online. Just love a good cook book though that goes through a lot of the subtler stuff. What sort of shit to keep in the press etc.
Want to learn about it. Flavours are incredible, am messing about with cooking it but know fuck all about it.I hold silver in tit for tat, and I love you for that

Can anyone recommend a good Thai cook book?
I'll never forget it. We booked it up but managed (quite easily) to go on the absolute lash the night before. There is nothing quite like going on a session for 18 hours, having a few hours kip, and then being brought around the morning market (which included the fish market) to buy all the necessary ingredients for your cookery class.
Have done pretty much all of the recipes over the years but most have to be translated from Thai-English to actual English.
If there is anything in particular you are looking to cook, let me know me know and I'll check to see if there is a recipe for it in the book.

Only reason I had one is due to have a bite of an M&Ms bar (Mars) and being told they’re pretty much the same as Crunch.
Obv the +ev play is Crunch going forward to I’ll return to them.
Have always meant to branch out away from Cadburys.

50% of people with the virus are asymptomatic, fail to see why kids would be different
Not get hit by it for some reason... fine, but why not carry it?... it's a virus

That's the Tom yum recipe I use, but that's a great site in general.
You'll see same ingredients pop up, fish sauce, oyster sauce, good soy sauce, lemongrass , fresh ginger which freezes well. I've never cooked a thai dish and not been able to get the ingredients in oriental pantry on Moore st.
This tom kha soup (Thai coconut chicken) is just perfect. Rich and creamy yet tangy and salty- the best I've ever had! Whole30, paleo, vegan options.
Pretty good also. When you get used to the same flavors you'll be able to cook a Thai style noodle broth or stir fry easy.
If you're not arsed making your own pastes like me most of the time the Mae Ploy ones are the best in my opinion. They have them in the shop above along with the chilli paste for the Tom yum which is used in plenty of other dishesLast edited by eamonhonda; 16-05-20, 10:07.airport, lol

There is evidence but there'll need to be a heap more before they go business as usual. A lot of the research suggests asymptomatic = low contagion because the viral load is low and you're not coughing it out into the atmosphere.

If lower risk... great, but a carrier is a carrier and I wouldn't want to be an older teacher if safety unknown
Don't they thing that it could have been asymptomatic people who spread it through the hospitals/care homes etc... not showing signs, not tested enough... carry on working

If crèches can go back than why not schools.

You can sometimes forget the death toll and the lockdown, and I'm sure kids are so quiet that ye barely notice them being around all the time.
But the lack of a Eurovision this year is the sort of thing which really makes it all hit home.
Should have been the greatest day in the IPB calendar, but alas we have to wait another 12 months.

Gemma O'Doherty has released the full transcript from their trip to the High Court:
It's so much better than you imagine. Plenty of withering knockout blows, just a couple of early ones to garner your interest:
MS O'DOHERTY: Judge, could you return my copy of Bunreacht na hÉireann to
24 me, please?
25 JUDGE: Certainly.
28 JUDGE: -- and I am making certain observations, which may be to your benefit,
29 Ms O'Doherty, I don't know, I am just making certain observations.
JUDGE: You're making a speech again, Ms O'Doherty.
14 MS O'DOHERTY: -- their right to assembly, I'm sorry, I -- you know, this is the
15 way I speak, Judge.
16 JUDGE: Indeed.
17 MS O'DOHERTY: If you -- I mean, I'm not interfering with the manner in which
18 you speak.
19 JUDGE: Well, and nor should you, Ms O'Doherty.
It's utterly fabulous.

Was in Eurasia yesterday, they always have a few exotic pastes and that that you won't find in an ordinary shop.
Picked up a Prik Khing curry paste, gonna give that a lash.
Not tonight though, I'm making your koftas again. They're outstanding.I hold silver in tit for tat, and I love you for that
