Jim's café - 9th April, 2020, Thursday.

[Affirm]

Thank you for the @ @1964dodge

1. Tell us the last funny thing that you did.
Not entirely sure if this counts as me, but I was practicing drawing; looking down at my notebook, laptop in front of me. Parents walk in, and they think that I am basically about to fall asleep or like sleep deprived sense I'm looking down, not seeing the notebook as it was under the table.

2. Do you like dancing?
I have Just Dance 2020, if that counts. But no, not really, and I can't actually dance.

3. What do you do when no one's home? (Keep it clean and kid-friendly)
I speak a lot louder, if that counts

4. Do you want SF to have a new layout?
I personally have no qualms about it, and feel as if it's pretty user friendly as far as UI goes.

6 . What anti virus software do you use?
I use Linux, so I don't use one asides from common sense . When I was on Windows, I used Avast.

7. Did you noticed that the numbering of the previous question is wrong?
uhmmmm, *sighs* no. You beat me this time.

 

[Saint Rita]

Yes but I suck at it as someone else said

You might suck at it now, or even in some upcoming weeks or months, but it's really empowering to just melt away in music and not care about the world and how people would judge you.

I told him to hold my legs while I was hanging of the bed and pretended to swim lol

LOL!

I use Linux

Which one and why did you choose a Linux OS over any windows OS?

 

[Affirm]

Which one and why did you choose a Linux OS over any windows OS?

Distribution is Linux Mint. Initially the laptop had Windows 7, but it's like 11 years old now, so I changed it to be more lightweight, also due to nagging from my brother saying it's the superior os 1000 times over. Probably changing back within the forseeable future, if possible, due to driver issues.

 

[Bbear82]

1. Not sure what that would be

2.i love dancing

3. blast my music sing and dance around.

4. nah I like it how it is

6. no clue

7. yes I did lol

 

[dandelions]

Hey, guys! How are y'all doing?

Today's theme is - Ummm... Well, there's no specific theme today but sit back and relax.

1. Tell us the last funny thing that you did.

2. Do you like dancing?

3. What do you do when no one's home? (Keep it clean and kid-friendly)

4. Do you want SF to have a new layout?

6 . What anti virus software do you use?

7. Did you noticed that the numbering of the previous question is wrong?

Welcome to the café!

ooooh i’ve been quite challenged with the Qs lately. i hope i can answer these.

(prequestion) Hey, guys! How are y'all doing?
how i am doing is feeling kind of worn thin over the past few days due to the state of the world, country locality etc, on top of my usual weariness from my mental state and physical state. but in accord with my internal areas of hope and desire to live and progress in a positive way, i find i have even more desire to survive - be determined to succeed - even if i never get to experience it as if i am experiencing it. i hope this comes off as making sense.

and the rest of the questions

1. Tell us the last funny thing that you did.
i’ll maybe get back to this later.

2. Do you like dancing?
how appropriate for me. i just posted a thread about this sometime in the last month or so and i think i got only one reply if that many. i do not think i know or understand if i do like dancing or not. my former therapist insisted that dancing is innate. i kind of think she is right. that would mean that absolutely yes i do like dancing. however the last time i tried which was about 48 years ago i vividly remember the horrible feelings i had and why i had to stop trying. sure wish i could dance though.

3. What do you do when no one's home? (Keep it clean and kid-friendly)
clearly i cannot elaborate here. and not because it is not clean but because to relate it could be “triggering” to myself or even others. suffice it to say that i hate being alone and regardless if anyone is home or not, i struggle at keeping the real “me”.

4. Do you want SF to have a new layout?
no. i think the site is ok as is. however if there is a change that i like, of course i will not object.

6 . What anti virus software do you use?
none that i know of - most likely already incorporated unbeknownst in whatever i use.

7. Did you noticed that the numbering of the previous question is wrong?
is it wrong or did you just delete #5? no matter, i did not notice until you brought to my attention that checking it out might be a thing.

Welcome to the café! thanks for posting this café Karlos.

 

[JMG]

Tysm for the tags @1964dodge & @Kiwi2016
Fun q's, I think I can answer most of them.

1. Tell us the last funny thing that you did.
I'm not very funny at all so can't really think of anything for this, maybe some people might find how I was flipping out to my friend due to certain kinds of issues yesterday to be funny but I'm not entirely sure that people would be laughing with me lol :/

2. Do you like dancing?
Yes it's fun but only when there is no one around cos I was burned terribly by a so-called "friend" when I tried to just "be myself" as people are always so quick to throw out there well in my case it's best if I be myself BY myself lol.

3. What do you do when no one's home? (Keep it clean and kid-friendly)
Relax & enjoy the peace & quiet (aside from my crazy kitten zipping around and sometimes being a bit of a pest getting into things and being bratty.

4. Do you want SF to have a new layout?
Only if it was an improvement, I think it would be cool if the actual layout of where things are was kept the same but where maybe the color scheme was changed a bit, or better yet let us be able to have a custom background tile for it or something cool like that, would be fun. But it's fine how it is now really and I'm glad the default theme isn't really dark cos that would be very depressing, I would not like it at all and also it would bring back very bad memories for me (long story).

6 . What anti virus software do you use?
Lol I like Aurelia's answer for this, damn if I'd honestly thought of that one myself then I could count that as the last "funny thing I did" for question 1 well w/e some people are able to be funny effortlessly & others aren't just the way life is for some moronic reason. Anyway I don't really use any anti-virus software but we are extremely careful about the links we click and thankfully there aren't the problems these days that there once was with browser hijacking bs like there used to be. Wow IE used to be just terrible for that, that browser really does suck I NEVER use it these days. Chrome & Firefox are so much better than that pos ever was just sayin'.

7. Did you noticed that the numbering of the previous question is wrong?
Only upon reading this question pointing it out, if you hadn't then I'm not sure if I would have lol. Oh I almost forgot though, dodge/Mike put a #5 q about whether a person should click "like" on a post if they like or approve of it. I do think it is nicer to do that but also that it is a lot more important to do if a person has tagged you, given you a compliment or just otherwise had a positive response to your post in some way, especially if you either don't have time to reply or aren't sure what to say back but want to let them know in some way both that you read it and that you appreciate it. I like to do it when people give ANYONE a compliment esp. if whoever it was given to didn't click like (I don't mean that as judgmentally as it sounds ok I just mean that I really don't like to see a nice, kind, compliment-giving post without even a single like on it there is just something extremely wrong about that imo).

 

[sinking_ship]

Thanks for the tag @1964dodge
I appreciate people tagging me though I haven't responded here in a while.

1. Tell us the last funny thing that you did.
I can't think of anything. Probably something klutzy.

2. Do you like dancing?
Yeah, I do. I'm not particularly good at it, but it's fun.

3. What do you do when no one's home? (Keep it clean and kid-friendly)
Mostly the same things I do when anyone is. Though I'll probably drink or binge-eat when no one's around to judge haha.

4. Do you want SF to have a new layout?
Maybe not a whole new layout, but some things could be improved. I don't like change though haha.

6 . What anti virus software do you use?
I have sophos, I think bc my work recommended it, but I never run it. I've got a mac so I dunno how necessary it is.

7. Did you noticed that the numbering of the previous question is wrong?
I did not, haha. I'm not at my brightest these days.

 

[dandelions]

5. no question so i'll add one : do you think that people should hit like on a post if they either like it or approve of it

Only upon reading this question pointing it out, if you hadn't then I'm not sure if I would have lol. Oh I almost forgot though, dodge/Mike put a #5 q about whether a person should click "like" on a post if they like or approve of it.

thanks for pointing out mike’s #5 Q JMG and thanks Mike for asking it. here’s my answer
my policy on “like”ing is to like if i like or if the post resonates or if i feel “in the same boat” or if i want to express compassion. and when it comes to something like compassion it is likely in a situation where something bad is being talked about where i certainly do not like what happened but i do have to express something in support or encouragement even when i don’t really know what to say.

 

[Inanimate]

1. Tell us the last funny thing that you did.

Seek help.

2. Do you like dancing?

I don’t even like watching.

3. What do you do when no one's home? (Keep it clean and kid-friendly)

Nothing that I don’t already do. I did scream one time for no more than three seconds. Either my neighbors didn’t hear, or they dismissed it as an average, everyday nuisance. If they would’ve done anything, they would’ve complained to the police for disturbing the peace. Nonetheless, I don’t blame them since miserable drunks and assholes who are starved of attention scream and shoot firearms intermittently, thereby ruining it for those who may be worth saving.

4. Do you want SF to have a new layout?

Neither no nor yes.

6 . What anti virus software do you use?

I don’t fuckin’ know. If my smartphone requires one, then whoops.

7. Did you noticed that the numbering of the previous question is wrong?

No. I read the questions last night but hastily, since I was doing anything to procrastinate going to sleep. I wasn’t expecting to get pranked in a Jim’s Cafe.

 

[SillyOldBear]

Too damn many questions for me. I can't handle more then three.

 

[Xanthas]

1. Tell us the last funny thing that you did.
I'm working on revised lyrics for Madonna's "Material World" song, "We are Living in a Covidian World"

2. Do you like dancing?
No. But my wife is a ballet professor.

3. What do you do when no one's home? (Keep it clean and kid-friendly)
Lately, it is rare that I'm home alone. When that happens, I'm usually in my office working.

4. Do you want SF to have a new layout?
Meh, I don't see the need.

6 . What anti virus software do you use?
Covid Labs, 19th edition. It protects against human-computer and computer-human virus transmission (which is real btw).

7. Did you noticed that the numbering of the previous question is wrong?
There is no question number 5. But that doesnt mean the previous question is numbered wrong. It is a perfectly fine question for a sixth question. The problem is that you don't have a question numbered 5.

 

[Walker]

4. Do you want SF to have a new layout?

Neither no nor yes.

That was very politically correct

Yes, I'm only here to read the answers for this question. Just kidding, I"m reading them all but paying close attention to this one. Look at all you happy chappies being all okay with the layout of this place. I dig it.

 

[Inanimate]

That was very politically correct

Damn. It was unintentional though.

 

[Walker]

Damn. It was unintentional though.

I was totally amused by it

 

[Saint Rita]

is it wrong or did you just delete #5?

I didn't delete any question, there was no question 5 in the start.

 

[dandelions]

I didn't delete any question, there was no question 5 in the start.

ok, i’m a trouble maker 😜 but by my thinking, if there was no question 5 then the numbering is right as is. if there was a 5 that would be wrong, no?😬😇😊🙃🧐

Anyone wants to open the café?

 

[dandelions]

Anyone wants to open the café?

I was thinking of opening today Friday but it's about 11:30 am NY time and I won't have the opportunity for a couple more hours.😢

2. Do you like dancing?

Only than once or twice when much younger I have never danced.

3. What do you do when no one's home? (Keep it clean and kid-friendly)

Nobody is ever here and I will keep it clean and kid friendly. LOL

4. Do you want SF to have a new layout?

No need. This one is well laid out with enough color to make it appealing.

6 . What anti virus software do you use?

Bitdefender.

7. Did you noticed that the numbering of the previous question is wrong?

I did.
