Pringles - you really CAN'T stop!
But they're not even the nicest chip out there - far from it!

What are they putting in these things?

3. It's all a part of your diabolical plan
To do what, I don't know. But still...

11. Not very organized, are we?
You should know your own diabolical plans, if for no other reason just to make sure you're not stealing someone else's idea. :7

15. OMG
What if their plan is patented? :hide:

You're right, I would make a lousy evil genius. :D

20. Then you'd get sued for sure.
Yes, stay away from the Dark Side. It doesn't suit you. :P

5. Wait .... wait one second here... slang question interference...
in what spirit did you use the word "babes" in that sentence? Friendly? Affectionate? I've been curious about this term for a while, especially in the English sense.

6. Friendly

Possibly over-familiar? mutley retains the right to slap me if she doesn't like it.

Edit: and affectionate, too.

8. Nah, I won't slap you.
I'll just call you "babes" in return. :P

10. Or something even more demeaning
See, that's just one reason why I love you! :loveya:

17. How would you typically use it, though?
Is it something you would use to call a female friend? A female sweetheart? Is it like "dear?"

18. All of the above
You may say it to a friend, but that does not preclude her being your sweetheart too.

I suppose it's like "dear," yes, or like "darlin'." That last one is a bit too cab driver for me, though. :P

21. Someone has been using that word to address me.
He's English, and I've been going mad trying to figure out why he's chosen that word to use. It does seem like a rather familiar term to me.

I'm sorry - I didn't mean to interrupt your fun with mutley. :hi:

He's probably coming on to you. I would. ;)

24. Now you're just flattering me.
:P

And, yes, I do suspect there's something going on in his mind, but I'm not 100% certain. And yes, I wish I could find out without opening a rather destructive Pandora's Box in my personal life.

23. It's certainly familiar, but I wouldn't necessarily classify it as romantic.
I call my male and female friends "babe," but there's nothing romantic about my relationship with these people. It's all about context, I guess.

27. That makes sense.
Maybe I'm reading too much into his word choices. Oh well. Back to reality. :D

14. I once watched a man turn a new can of pringles up to his lips
and slowly let gravity help him eat every single chip without moving the can from his bottom lip.

I USED to know, but I forgot. :dunce: :blush:

Glad to see you, too. I'm sorry you're sick. That really sucks! Why don't you take a vacation in TN? :bounce: We'd get you well in no time. :hug: :loveya: I hope you feel better soon. Are you sick or sick and tired, or both?

I'M not crazy. Things around here are crazy. Lot's o' meetings with the builder -- there's a lot happening right now. We had framers, roofers, brick layers, waterproofers, and electricians there today. Whew! The boss was there, too. If I'd had some hot dogs and beer, we could have had a party. :rofl:


Edit: THINK, not THING ... :eyes:

38. I'm tired, too
I've had a sort of cold or something that's been hanging around for WEEKS. Driving me crazy. This morning I felt crappy enough that I wasn't going to work. I've only had four days off in the last rolling 12 months anyway.

I'd be round yours like a shot if it were at all possible... :hug:

:loveya:

39. I had a migraine yesterday and last night.
Feel sorry for me? I think I caused it from being around me too much.
