GiuseppeK: I'm gonna make more of an effort to start describing spans of time in two week blocks, since I wanna start using the word "fortnightly."

MidnightTH: @sophen I thought so.😊

GiuseppeK: @MidnightTH I'm gonna have to go to bat for Augustus Gloop, though--you can't tell a bunch of kids and their respective chaperones that everything in a room is edible, then get upset when someone drinks from the chocolate river. That's 100% on YOU, Wonka.

21 hours ago

MidnightTH: @sophen I don’t remember you having Jax as your pfp. Did you change it in the middle of the week or did I just forget when you changed it…🤣! Looks good either way.(let the record show I still haven’t watched TADC I just know Jax from loads of people talking about him.)

21 hours ago

MidnightTH: @GiuseppeK Yeah I totally was!!! But I just remembered that I won against the undefeated champion of the boys!!! I just watch the movie and read the book recently again!

sophen: @MidnightTH you're welcome, it looks really good

21 hours ago

GiuseppeK: @MidnightTH You're that outlier, then. Unappreciated by most literary critics in Roald Dahl's CHARLIE & THE CHOCOLATE FACTORY is the classic dodgeball strategy: nail the fat kid and the girls first. 😎

21 hours ago

GiuseppeK: @MidnightTH You won against high school boys as a 7th grader? Smaller target, and no doubt repeating the mantra of "Gotta go fast" all the while. 👍

21 hours ago

MidnightTH: @GiuseppeK *The dodgeball was a hard kickball by the way!

21 hours ago

MidnightTH: @GiuseppeK They one time the ball was like a hard kickball at it actually cut open my skin, so I prefer gaga ball.😑 Fun fact about me!(I won against high-school boys when I was in 7th grade. They’re reactions to losing a 7th grade girl!!!🤣)

21 hours ago

GiuseppeK: Thinking back to the days when a kid could get socked with a red rubber playground ball hard enough for SPAULDING™ to be legible backwards on their exposed skin...

21 hours ago

GiuseppeK: @MidnightTH Got curious enough to look it up, and I'm rather surprised. Considering how "problematic" dodgeball was considered just a couple years ago, hard to believe someone decided the solution was putting it in an octagonal Thunderdome...

22 hours ago

Sadieville: @GiuseppeK ok thanks! i’ll check those out

22 hours ago

MidnightTH: @GiuseppeK Well gaga ball really isn’t a sport it’s just a game that recently resurged as a popular game.

22 hours ago

MidnightTH: @sophen Thanx! I finally got it colored better.

22 hours ago

GiuseppeK: @Sadieville But in any case, I'd suggest using a bit of Masha's "clean back" technique to hide those loose ends into the pattern, and clipping the excess off on the back side of things (as Bob Ross used to say, so it'd be our little secret).

22 hours ago

GiuseppeK: @Sadieville If it's intended to be a wearable bracelet, I'd probably incorporate them into a tapered finish (Masha has a video on tapered starts and ends), then I'd cut the final bundle down to 12 (the perfect number for two braided ends in my humble opinion), and use that final 12 to make a final chubby knot to end things.

22 hours ago

Sadieville: When you have colors that are entering from the side of the alpha and you finish the bracelet, what do you do with those strings? Do you cut them?

sophen: @MidnightTH you're pfp looks really cool!

GiuseppeK: @MidnightTH "Gaga" ball...? Oh, c'mon--stop making up sports!

MidnightTH: @GiuseppeK I think it is just Ernest goes to camp. My camp was a little different from what most people expect. It was held at a collage, and my mom, dad, aunt, and uncle all went there for collage!!!! I slept in the same dorm room my aunt did when she was in collage!!! I shared an air mattress with my friend and it kept deflating, so when we woke up in the morning we were literally landing on a mat! The camp had a 300ft water slide/slip-n-slide, a zip line, a creek to go tubing, air soft, a soccer field, volleyball, basketball, pickle ball, gaga ball, nine square, nature hikes!!!! I had the most amazing time with a good friend of mine. I do plan on going back! Fun fact this camp is held in the same area I was born in Roanoke Virginia🤩!! I currently live somewhere else, like not in Virginia at all😔 Anyway thanx for letting me rant!❤️❤️

1 day, 2 hours ago

GiuseppeK: @MidnightTH Just thinking about the classic camp activities of yesteryear, some of which were immortalized in the classic movie in which the lovable character Ernest goes to camp (although the exact title escapes me at the moment 🤔).

GiuseppeK: @MidnightTH No offense taken. I didn't really expect such ancient communication could link up with BB in any practical way.

5 days, 21 hours ago

t1ffloser: @Sadieville #113967 is pretty simple to start with imo!

5 days, 23 hours ago

Sadieville: @GiuseppeK that’s another good quote. it has a very deep but truthful meaning.

GiuseppeK: @Sadieville "If trees could scream, would we be so cavalier about chopping them down? I say maybe we would, especially if they screamed all the time, and for no good reason." --Jack Handey

6 days ago

Sadieville: @GiuseppeK yes! i was doing that yesterday just watching a couple of tutorials, so when the time comes to finally make these alphas, im not as confused. also, i love that quote!

6 days ago

GiuseppeK: @Sadieville A quote I've always liked [attributed to Abe Lincoln] is to the effect of "give me six hours to chop down a tree, and I'll spend the first five sharpening my axe." 👍

6 days ago

GiuseppeK: @Sadieville If you haven't already done so, I'd recommend checking out Masha's video primers on getting started with Alphas. Take your time--the hard stuff ain't going anywhere.

6 days ago

Sadieville: @GiuseppeK haha no worries. i maybe just got a little excited yesterday and started adding a few alphas i thought we easy

6 days ago

GiuseppeK: @Sadieville If you'll pardon me for being nosey, saw that #210230 is already in your To-Dos. Go get 'em. 👍

6 days ago

Sadieville: @GiuseppeK i’m training myself to not crash out on my string if i get upset with the knots (that’s tends to happen a lot..). i’m ready for this. i think. thank so much tho! i’m also trying to save some easy two color alphas in my todos.

6 days ago

GiuseppeK: @Sadieville Don't get frustrated--it takes practice to get them right (still working on it myself). In order to be good at anything, we have to be willing to suck at first.

6 days ago

GiuseppeK: @Sadieville I'd suggest doing a pull for Alphas, 10-stings or fewer, 2-colors. Something like #210230, just for example, in order to get the feel for it. They're a different animal.

6 days ago

Sadieville: hii! so i’m starting to learn some alpha patterns, but i’m not sure what to really start off with. does anyone have any starter alpha bracelet suggestions, besides the rag rug or flip flop? if not, that’s fine. thank you anyway!

6 days, 2 hours ago

t1ffloser: @GiuseppeK I’m honestly open to anything! Will def check it out

6 days, 2 hours ago

GiuseppeK: @t1ffloser I'm biased, of course, but I find they have a high degree of re-watchability, and I think they're better than most anything else one is likely to find on streaming these days.

6 days, 2 hours ago

GiuseppeK: @t1ffloser It may not be your jam, but I'll do my buddy Chris (Fleming) a solid and recommend his classic series GAYLE (on YouTube). In it, he was doing an impression of his own neurotic mother (who was a good enough sport to guest star occasionally as Gayle's frenemy Bonnie).
