Last weeks thread here

Welcome to this week’s casual kōrero thread!

This post will be pinned in this community so you can always find it, and will stay for about a week until replaced by the next one.

It’s for talking about anything that might not justify a full post. For example:

  • Something interesting that happened to you
  • Something humourous that happened to you
  • Something frustrating that happened to you
  • A quick question
  • A request for recommendations
  • Pictures of your pet
  • A picture of a cloud that kind of looks like an elephant
  • Anything else, there are no rules (except the rule)

So how’s it going?

    That sounds like a really interesting field. I just realised there are Silicon Valley scenes that are about this as well…

    Oh I haven’t watched Silicon Valley, is it good?

    The phones had those annoying little metal gates in them that some candybars used to have. I remember being completely weirded out by it.

    I am struggling to follow, what are the little metal gates in candy bars? I have a bad memory 😅

      If you like that style of humour it’s very good! I think I must have rewatched the entire thing about 4 or 5 times.

      It’s a hard thing to find an image of but by gates I mean kind of like the ones in here only instead of sliding the sim in behind it you had to undo a little catch and swing it open first.

        Ah yes I wondered if it was like that. I feel like it would be weird doing it like that, I’m so used to sims sliding in!
