"Uh, don't ya have any soup today?"
"Other side of the menu - under 'Liquids'..."

In the US, at least, some men's clothing ads now use "Tops" and "Bottoms" for shirts and pants. Sounds kinda NSFW 😬

And then there's tendency to call one pair of them a "pant".

And if this is a "dm" - then what is a Chat? I saw an option for a "Chat Request" (but can't find it now... ).

Oh, while I've been on the 'net since the late '90s, I never used Twitter, Facebook or, now, Bluesky for personal/individual conversations.

I know "dm" = Direct Message - but, is that what we're doing now?

Me: "I thought it was because he wanted to look like the guy on the penny."

Looks at me like I'm crazy. "Nooo..."

Yeah, glad to met you. As I mentioned, I'm (chronically? 😉) introverted, so it's nice to talk to some folks. Reading (and even avoiding) the News, I think: "I've got to do something..." and then driving home from a demo:
"...I'm not sure that's it. But it is 'something' ..."

Wait - they told us during orientation that ol' Henry David wrote it at the Waldenbooks in that mall off Rt. 128. (Still got my employee name tag).
