Tausig's puzzle this week was the easiest of his I've ever done: I did it on the way home the other night, and I was done before I got to Fullerton.

yeah, i agree, super easy (both the inkwell one and the one in the Onion)
― Jordan, Friday, 7 December 2007 18:02 (sixteen years ago) link
i like doing easy crosswords though :>
Yeah, I meant the Inkwell one. Haven't done the Onion one yet.

the past couple of weekends sarah and i have taken the onion and reader crosswords with us to brunch and traded them back and forth while waiting for our food. most obnoxious cute couple thing to do y/n?

equato sounds like one of those made-up fruits where they force two fruits to have sex to one another. like ... a cantelope and ... a tangerine ... and a ... blueberry. a menage a trois de fruits.

OH MY FUCKING GOD YOU KNOW WHAT I LOVE MORE THAN ANYTHING IN THE WHOLE FUCKING WORLD? GIVING REMEDIAL COMPUTER LESSONS TO 50 YEAR OLD WOMEN. ESPECIALLY WHEN THEY DON'T ACTUALLY WANT HELP, THEY WANT ME TO GIVE UP AND DO IT FOR THEM. GOD I LOVE THAT. I LOVE THAT SO MUCH.

It's entirely possible that I have had too much coffee.
I'm going to be doing crosswords alone forever.
― Laurel, Friday, 7 December 2007 18:41 (sixteen years ago) link
Pluots are so delicious.
― Eazy, Friday, 7 December 2007 18:42 (sixteen years ago) link
I prefer doing crosswords alone, too.
― jaymc, Friday, 7 December 2007 18:46 (sixteen years ago) link
But that's largely because I like the sense of pride and accomplishment, where I can be like I DID THAT ALL BY MYSELF.

before i moved in with jen our sunday morning ritual was doing the online crossword in the irish times, euro spellings fucked us every time.
― chicago kevin, Friday, 7 December 2007 18:50 (sixteen years ago) link
i have an as yet unfulfilled fantasy about sunday morning in bed, including a lady, coffee, and crosswords. maybe waffles.
― Jordan, Friday, 7 December 2007 19:21 (sixteen years ago) link

Hey, what does "FTW" stand for?
― Jesse, Friday, 7 December 2007 19:23 (sixteen years ago) link
for the win
― Jordan, Friday, 7 December 2007 19:23 (sixteen years ago) link
jordan, don't be greedy. i'd settle for a sunday in bed with any one of those things.
― chicago kevin, Friday, 7 December 2007 19:24 (sixteen years ago) link
is it really so much to ask?!
― Jordan, Friday, 7 December 2007 19:25 (sixteen years ago) link

waffles in bed seems like a bad idea to me, especially if they have maple syrup on (which they must do). i can't even imagine having syrup seeping into the mattress.

Fear The Waffles

i can't even imagine having syrup seeping into the mattress.
of all the things that could seep into a mattress maple syrup is probably the most innocuous.
just don't use too much syrup, waffles are nature's syrup holders. or sometimes i make sour cream waffles and top with sour cream.
― Jordan, Friday, 7 December 2007 19:30 (sixteen years ago) link
btw, i have my cold brew coffee cold brewing at home. or, i guess it brewed last night, and now the concentrate is draining. i'm a little skeptical of the microwaving part, but i look forward to not having to make coffee for at least two weeks.
― Jordan, Friday, 7 December 2007 19:34 (sixteen years ago) link
OMG Jordan's sour cream waffles!!! You should talk about them with a lady friend and maybe one thing will lead to another.
― KitCat, Friday, 7 December 2007 19:37 (sixteen years ago) link
oh, i have talked up breakfast at my place already :>
― Jordan, Friday, 7 December 2007 19:39 (sixteen years ago) link
I would be more than happy to act as a reference on behalf of your waffle-making skills.
― KitCat, Friday, 7 December 2007 19:43 (sixteen years ago) link
Man, I totally want to make those this weekend.
Check this out. One of my sisters was supposed to buy my sister-in-law's train ticket and get reimbursed for it (they were traveling from DC together) and she FORGOT to buy the other ticket!! Now the train is full. :-(
― KitCat, Friday, 7 December 2007 19:44 (sixteen years ago) link
ugh, that sounds not good, sarah! this is why i prefer to make my own travel arrangements even if it means doing it for other people as well...
