Re: "This is a comment, not a question". See also: "Have you considered including..." in which the rest of that sentence has nothing to do with your focus, topic, or possibly anything at the conference.

Oh man, my favorite is “Did you factor/allow for/consider” and then a statement of something that they explicitly covered in their presentation ten minutes previously. 

I hope you get some sleep tonight.... <3

You good? ��

...did you free hand the painting? That's amazing!!

Thank you! The paint had applicator tips, so it was easier than it seems -- the swirls are something I have doodled in the corners of my notebooks and stuff for years, so for me it was mostly just “don’t smear the paint omg”. But I’m glad you liked it!

for maximum weird, add fake eyelashes on the googlies.

I was thinking about it, or about drawing eye-shapes around the googlies, because they look weirdly unlike eyes if they’re not paired. (I glued the last two to my ukulele’s headstock.)

I was all set to think, "Oh, how lovely! I'm going to 'heart' this," and then your googly-eyes comment happened and it startled a laugh-out-loud moment out of me.

MWAHAHAHA. I’m so glad I got that reaction at least once.

That pun was slick, Sam. Suave. Subtle. Are you feeling okay?

The funniest part is that it wasn’t even intentional. Like, as I was writing “the barn is pretty stable” I knew there was something wrong, something off or strange about what I was saying, but I rechecked it like three times and I was using the right word, so I posted it. The puns just bubble to the surface when I’m me. 

whatdoyoumeanitsnotawesome reblogged your post and added:

but why first- person Sam???

Why not? I like first person on occasion....

It’s been rough here, too. I’m so sorry

I’m sorry.. :/ hang in there?

For a moment, I thought that was your own shopping cart. ... It's not, is it?

LOL! Well they were on sale for a dollar, so almost :D

Nah I buy one small jar and one votive of it every year, and that usually lasts me. Our primary mission when we go to the Scenter of the Universe is just to have fun and soak in its ambiance, but usually my mother gives me a secondary mission, to find her a signature scent for the year.

did the cream cheese cake taste less eggy this time sam?

It did! I used less egg yolk this time, I think is part of it, and also fully cooled the butter mixture so I wasn’t worried about it cooking the egg. 

It’s still better after a night in the fridge, though. Om nom nom.

Dang, you cook, you sew, you write...omg you're a fully functioning adult!!!!

Well, I do my best. At this rate I’ll make some 19th century pioneer a great wife. :D

You churned butter on a Sunday? That seems blasphemous.

I'll be in for Revenge of the Sith, and to explain why release order is important to understanding the rhetoric of the films.

I’m looking forward to it! 

So, TKA is a major frat house here at my school and so this post worried me for a moment…
