Fun Table
Yes people in honour of "Fun Day" we shall have a table devoted to Fun!

1) What is the most fun thing you ever did.

Other than dirty and naughty things? The peace and quiet of just spending time outdoors, although admittedly as I get older, the milder temperatures call the most to me. I like comfortable as well.

2) What do you like to do for fun when you have the chance?

Stargazing and fishing since I can do both in my back yard.

3) What is your sense of humour, tell us something you find funny.

Silly and at times quite warped. I do have gallows humor at times. LOL

4) What do you find fun that most probably wouldn't? (like jigsaw puzzles or organising your CD collection).

I clean the house, and NO I will not clean yours which can be what people want me to do for them. I think it is more because I love order and structure to things.

5) What did you find fun that you never thought you would until you tried it?

Having a cat, or rather a pet of any kind. She and I go round and round on who is boss here. I have always liked animals but never saw myself as a pet owner let alone an aloof feline , but the little gal cat here has grown on me. :)

Liars Table

Doesn't as much apply to me. I either shoot straight or just don't answer. But then again I can be reluctant to answer or to ask too much of others. I typically just mind my own business and don't bother others about theirs.

Escape Table

Don't you wish you could just escape sometimes and live a simple life in the countryside tending your garden wearing a straw hat and jeans?

1) Do YOU want a straw hat? Would you wear it? Can't see it.

Although I do wear a baseball cap when out because of my chrome dome I rarely wear a hat except in Winter and then it is a Jayne Cobb hat for when it is chillier. That hat makes me look like an idiot, but when I walk down the street people know I am not afraid of anything.

2) Do you like Gardening?

Actually yes, I do. Got back into it a bit with the pandemic and relearning growing my own food, if need be. I can still do it.

3) Have you ever visited a beautiful public garden? How did you feel?

Sadly, none here, but I love things that are pretty.

4) Have you ever tried growing vegetables?

Quite often throughout my life.

5) Have you ever sat under a tree and simply enjoyed nature?

Always! :) One of my favorite things to do, got it made in the shade(old Lynyrd Skynyrd song) and watching the goings on and taking it easy can be most relaxing.

Ladies and gentlemen, I'm afraid I am not going to be able to put in the normal effort I do for Jim's Cafe, as this is more of a whim thing, I see there is no cafe, and I'm in a WEIRD conflicted mood and on my 2nd bottle... of Gin... so I just figured... CAFE TIME! *dunno
Today we celebrate Fun Day, Tell a Lie Day, One Cent Day, Reading is Funny Day, and Sourdough Bread Day, oh, and lets throw in Straw Hat Month and Garden Month.


Fun Facts
1) F. D. Chester Willard has been published multiple times in the field of Physics, co-authoring multiple papers and being credited for contributions to dozens more, even signed copies of his work has been handed out at events. Oh, and small fun fact, Chester, is a cat. His owner accidently used "We" instead of "I" in a paper he was writing and couldn't be bothered to change it so shared credit with his cat under the name "Felix Domesticus Chester Willard. or "F. D. C. Willard" to make "we" appropriate. This was so amusing to others in his field that copies of his paper bearing his cat's paw print were sold, and many physicists also credited his cat for contributions to their work.
2) A standard Chef's hat has PRECICELY 100 pleats.. for some reason.
3) Queen Elizabeth II, the longest standing monarch in UK history, is also a trained mechanic.
4) Both high heels, and the colour pink were originally worn by men and thought to be manly before women took them as their own.
5) Black Sapote is a fruit which, under the skin, has the taste, colour and consistency of chocolate pudding when ripe.

3) What is a lie you like to hide behind?

What lie do you think is ESSENTIAL for people to get along?
- Those casual praises.

Escape Table
Do YOU want a straw hat? Would you wear it?
- Straw hat is found everywhere in my country, used mostly in the rural area by farmers since those hats provide more shades than caps. Tourists seem to like them a lot. I wear them for a handful of times throughout my life. So, sure I can wear one again.

Do you like Gardening? - Not much.

Have you ever visited a beautiful public garden? How did you feel?

Thanks @Dante you weirdly beautiful man. It's 1pm, I am so cold I'm still in bed so a Cafe is lovely.
I just wish I we lived closer so you could bring me some tea.
Because I know your a great friend and you will drive the five hours through London to do it, but I do have wine and I have being drinking. Shhhhhh I have a lot of things I'm currently dealing with 😁
Though it's not warming me up.

1) What is the most fun thing you ever did

Drinking and doing stupid things with friends

2) What do you like to do for fun when you have the chance?

Walk around book stores holding all the new shiny books (damn I realize how boring I am as a person)

3) What is your sense of humour, tell us something you find funny.

I don't have a sense of humor, when do I ever tell jokes *sweat

Perfect one liners are hilarious when done right

4) What do you find fun that most probably wouldn't? (like jigsaw puzzles or organising your CD collection)

Organization and cleaning. I spring clean for hours sometimes

5) What did you find fun that you never thought you would until you tried it?


Running, who would have thought it, a tall guy likes running

1) What is your favourite white lie?

Lately, I'm going to go read, it's a massive lie, I'm going to go watch the office. Don't judge 🤦‍♂️
It's just soooooo good.

2) What lie do you see people say all the time that pisses you off?

They're intelligent, your not your dumb as a skunk.
Also I'm intelligent, people say that all the time in real life because I don't talk much. I am not I am below average, I don't talk because I'm shy, nothing to do with intelligence, stop lying to yourself.

3) What is a lie you like to hide behind?

Your just my friend, sometimes I really really like you, sometimes I'm confused, sometimes I don't like you, sometimes I'm in love with you. And sometimes you annoy the hell out of me.
I lie about my feelings all the time. It's safer that way.

4) What lie that others tell do you think EVERYONE sees through?

I'm fine, or I'm okay, I can see your not, but I don't know how to help, I'm sorry. But I do care, I always care 🤗

5) What lie do you think is ESSENTIAL for people to get along?

You are a great cook, you do not look fat in those jeans, no no of course we are friends, I found your joke hillarious, mom, of course I care about you 🙄

1) Do YOU want a straw hat? Would you wear it?

Ooooh I'd look good in a straw hat. I'd wear it in the bath 😁

2) Do you like Gardening?

Do you?
Nope, I do not, gardening is doing something productive, that goes against everything I believe in.

3) Have you ever visited a beautiful public garden? How did you feel?

I was born in a flat right next to the company gardens in Cape Town, the most beautiful place on earth, I know everything about those gardens its my favorite spot on earth.

4) Have you ever tried growing vegetables?

I have a Basset hound with the intelligence of a vegetable, I top his water bowl up each day.

5) Have you ever sat under a tree and simply enjoyed nature?

Not in a few years. I don't like doing things alone, and Natalie Portman doesn't like trees 🙄
But I know the tree I would sit under.

Thank you for the tag @Dante
Happy May Day
I wear a straw cowboy hat usually during the many hot months here. My winter one is felt/suede. Turban is another headgear.
I spend a lot of time in nature and with trees etc.
I garden, only herbs this year though. I got carried away with planting flowers this past couple of weeks instead.
Super Fun is jumping out of an airplane, hot air ballooning, rock climbing and rappelling.

Tysm for the tags @Dante & @pooky :) Cool & interesting facts so thanks for those too, and for all these fun q's, here's my answers.

Fun Table

1) What is the most fun thing you ever did?
Going to California for my spring break when I was 15, getting to go to Disneyland, Universal Studios, Hollywood and some other cool places too.
The only surprise party that was ever thrown for me (for my 13th bday) was very fun too because I really was very surprised and my best friend who I rarely got to see was there & she almost never came over to my place so that was extremely fun and I felt very special that day :)

2) What do you like to do for fun when you have the chance?
Watch Star Wars :)

3) What is your sense of humour, tell us something you find funny.
Pretty sure no one gives a damn about this, I can try to pull some kind of labelling, limiting, not-remotely-beginning-to-describe-me-anyway kind of thing outta by butt but why bother? Pretty sure it just doesn't even matter & also I don't have the damn energy right now. I do have one but it's weird, let's just say that.

4) What do you find fun that most probably wouldn't? (like jigsaw puzzles or organising your CD collection)
Organizing is fun for me, it's so rewarding after it's done & I can find everything easier.

5) What did you find fun that you never thought you would until you tried it?
Bowling. I'm sometimes kinda ok at it too lol. Other times I totally suck though, it's weird.

Liars Table


1) What is your favourite white lie?
This question assumes I ever tell white lies in the first place lol. But ya I suppose I tell them sometimes, I try not to though. I don't think I have a "favorite" one though, I mean I don't like any kind of lying so I could never have a favorite one anyway.

2) What lie do you see people say all the time that pisses you off?
Can't think of anything for this sorry.

3) What is a lie you like to hide behind?
That I'm indifferent about everything (at least in terms of anything negative that could possibly be said or done to me by anyone) when I go out. It's definitely one I "hide behind" because it's not remotely true, at all. I care way too bloody much :/

4) What lie that others tell do you think EVERYONE sees through?
Hard to answer this because everyone uses lies and does it in a different way. I could only answer such a thing if it was about a specific person who I'd observed and/or knew at least somewhat well I think.

5) What lie do you think is ESSENTIAL for people to get along?
You look great, you're great, we live in a civilized society, people can rise above their animal instincts, I dunno maybe these suck so sorry, I tried.

Escape Table
Don't you wish you could just escape sometimes and live a simple life in the countryside tending your garden wearing a straw hat and jeans?
Sometimes, sure.

1) Do YOU want a straw hat? Would you wear it?
No, I don't wear one. Not sure if I would, I don't fuss terribly about my hair, but damn, straw against hair would really mess it up terribly. I'm very boring with hats, only wear them out of practical necessity on a bright/hot day to keep the sun outta my face.

2) Do you like Gardening?
Haven't really ever done it, maybe I would though not sure.

3) Have you ever visited a beautiful public garden? How did you feel?
Yes. I felt inspired by the beauty and wonder of nature.

4) Have you ever tried growing vegetables?
No.

5) Have you ever sat under a tree and simply enjoyed nature?
Yes. Trees have a very powerful, majestic, inspiring and healing energy to them imo :)

The Bar
A place for all those who want to say hi, but dont want to get involved with the tables.

Too late for that, went to all the tables but still coming here too lol ;) :p

1) Say Hello
Hello. Lol ;) :p

2) Say whatever is on your mind.
Don't even know where to begin with this, so will just say that since this is a "bar" I will definitely order a very hard drink lol. I know it's not a good way to deal with extreme stress or worry but damn it sure can be effective sometimes (even if it's only temporary) so ya now would definitely be a great time for such a thing. Not really gonna do it in real life, but here? Heck yes, bring it on, please, lol ;) :)

Thanks for the tag, date, even though I'm late, as usual.

Fun table

1) What is the most fun thing you ever did
When I was a little younger, I used to have a lot of fun with my close friend group. I guess that what we used to do could be considered as "vandalism", but it was still pretty funny and some of the best memories I have.
2) What do you like to do for fun when you have the chance?
One of the things I used to do was play video games on my free time with my brother. I wish I had some more free time to do that again.
3) What is your sense of humour, tell us something you find funny.
I guess my sense of humor is somewhat dark. I remember my friends used to tell me a lot of jokes about immigrants, being one myself, that made me laugh a lot.
4) What do you find fun that most probably wouldn't? (like jigsaw puzzles or organizing your CD collection)
I could stare at an aquarium all day long. I never get tired of seeing them swimming.
5) What did you find fun that you never thought you would until you tried it?
Swimming. I even used to be terrified of water. Now it is one of my favorite things to do.

Lies table
A table for all the lies we tell
1) What is your favourite white lie?
I think it must be Santa Claus, El niño Jesus, Los Reyes Magos, or whatever is it called where you live. It must be one the first lies we are disappointed are not true.
2) What lie do you see people say all the time that pisses you off?
" I am very open-minded" it doesn't piss me off, but I am a little tired of hearing it, coming from people who are exactly and very obviously the opposite.
3) What is a lie you like to hide behind?
I often lie about the things I like to avoid being judged.
4) What lie that others tell do you think EVERYONE sees through?
Sometimes, it is pretty easy to tell when someone is lying about their goals and achievements, and it looks kinda ridiculous
5) What lie do you think is ESSENTIAL for people to get along?
The lies about what we think about others. If we were brutally honest, I think we would be very lonely as well.

The scape table
Don't you wish you could just escape sometimes and live a simple life in the countryside tending your garden wearing a straw hat and jeans?
1) Do YOU want a straw hat? Would you wear it?
I have several. Where I am from, they are not uncommon, especially in the costs.
2) Do you like Gardening?
Yes, I do.
3) Have you ever visited a beautiful public garden? How did you feel?
Yes, I have. It was very fresh and peaceful and I loved it.
4) Have you ever tried growing vegetables?
Well, it is not mine, but my house has a backyard that is used exactly for that. There are potatoes, onions avocados, and other things I really don't remember.
5) Have you ever sat under a tree and simply enjoyed nature?
Yes, I have. Now that I live in a more rural area, I can do that more often.

The bar
A place for all those who want to say hi, but dont want to get involved with the tables.
1) Say Hello
Hello everyone. Hope you are doing well.
2) Say whatever is on your mind.
I am thinking: what are you thinking?
