I have decided to serve absinthe spam pancakes. Yes, I know absinthe is illegal in the US, but the demand for absinthe spam pancakes has been, frankly, overwhelming. In the last week alone our requests for this product have increased by 100%. In short, you can rest assured that if you ever want absinthe spam pancakes in the future, at any hour of day or night, all you need to do is hop on your virtual steam-driven bagpipes, and take a trip to Fable's.

CE shakes hips, does lotus figures with arms
Absinthe pancakes! Great - it's almost breakfast time here

A few of Fable's new innovation and a cafe latte, and I'm ready for work

Hello Nael and Gwally
@Nael: I'm doing fine, I have been working a lot lately because some time ago, I accepted to teach a course of very demanding students, and then some major things happened at the lab that demand highest priority. That means - lots of work, less spam, less sleep

How are you? What have you been up to?

Absinthe flapjacks coming up! Welcome, all! Mind, put out that cigarette before you inhale the pancakes. Auto-combustion is forbidden by elemental law.

@Fable: aha! So that's how the cases of spontaneus combustion happened!

@Nael: Quite a long move you are doing - yes, winter clothes are horribly expensive
How come you are moving? Job, love, studying or some other reasons?

unfortuneatly, just a job...not love.
=(

I suppose it's a pretty good job that has made you decide to move that far?
Perhaps love will appear to - it often does when people come to new environments

well, i hope you are right, but i will not get my hopes up. these days i have very little faith in love and such
Posted: Tue Nov 20, 2001 11:13 pm

@nael: Why is it that you have so low faith in love these days?
Sorry I don't mean to poke into your private life, but has someone broke you heart recently and left you disillusioned?

Posted: Tue Nov 20, 2001 11:17 pm
by nael
actually the broken heart is from almot 2 years ago, just no girl has come along to heal it since then.

Broken hearts often take a long time to heal

Of course I don't know you, perhaps you are a horrible, unpleasant person IRL

but from what I've seen of you here, you seem to be a very nice and likeble person. It must be something else that causes you not to meet anybody - perhaps low confidence, or you focus too much on work and other things. Or just bad luck.

it's a combo of bad luck and situations. i just don't care enough to try and meet anyone. i'm more than happy just sitting with my friends at a bar or on my couch with my dog.
i don't know how horrible or likeable i am, but with 6 billion people out there, there has to be someoen for me regardless

Certainly, especially since 51% are women
I'm married for the 2nd time, but I used to be very happy as a single too.
So what's you new job?
EDIT: Time to go to my job. See you later.
