I wonder how this thread has become so popular in so little time... perhaps its popularity bloomed before it was stickied.

I smell a conspiracy!


:lol:

It's probably because, if you go back and count the number of posts, approximately two thirds of them are mine!

Well, I'm officially jealous. Can you both crochet tablecloths, like my grandmother used to do?


I don't crochet with the string required for that. I tried once, and the sensations freaked me out.

I've crocheted backpacks, skirts, hats, blankets, pouches, and socks before, though.

That's because you were too busy being competetive over in the other thread! :lol:

The trophy's in here now. I've hidden it. No one knows where it is. :wink:

If it interests you, it might be worth a try. My therapist told me it was a great activity for me due to my ADD. Not sure if it's the same for ADHD, but I know I've found myself in a meditative state several times which crocheting.

Once I figure out how to use the video feature on my camera, I could probably attempt. I've been told I'm good at teaching crocheting.

Thank you! :thumleft: Image

Great Idea for a thread all_white.
I cant do crocheting but my mum is rather good at it(she has sewn several clothing items to my sisters/her niece and has asked several times if I would like a jumper).
ps:Trophy has been found

EgyptianCat: Then what's that?
all_white: What's what?
EgyptianCat: That trophy looking thingy?
-All white quickly hides it-
all_white: You're tired EgyptianCat, go back to sleep.
EgyptianCat: Aww, but I'm not tired :(.
all_white: Yes, you are.
-rubs eyes-
EgyptianCat: Well, maybe just a little tired...
all_white: See? Want a bed time story?
EgyptianCat: O-Okay :).

Aww, thank you all_white for agreeing to read me a bed time story :).
What story will you read me? ^^

Hmmm. EgyptianCat, I don't remember agreeing to read anyone a bedtime story, but I like reading stories, so I'm happy to oblige! :bounce:

How about Rupert the Bear? He's all white, (hooray!) and he used to be my favourite when I was a little girl.

Spongy, make sure you don't let TenPencePiece steal that trophy back!

TEGH - what can I say! :lol:

I am flattered and honoured to see my name now features in your sig - even though I'm aware it was possibly meant as sarcasm, though it's hard to tell!

For your siggie to be ENTIRELY all_white-friendly, the space between "white" and "friendly" should be hyphenated, as I have just hyphenated it, because it is a compound adjective. However, I'm aware no one else cares, or even knows what a compound adjective is, so feel free to leave it as it is.

Things like that hurt when you're into punctuation. It makes me wince to read them, but such is life. We can't all be good at the same things. Case in point: I don't know how to crochet. :shrug:

I don't mind. I just want a bed time story :).
And you did say it, you said it just 15 minutes ago. Do you not remember all_white? :)
Bed time story! Bed time story! Bed time story! :bounce:

I'm all in favor of cleanliness, but there's something a little off-putting about the title of this thread.

How about something more generic like the "The Perpetual Chat Thread"?

Well, I'm open to ideas!

I just wanted to convey the idea that sleazy talk and cursing would not be welcomed, and "perpetual" does not convey that idea at all.

How about "the PG-friendly chat thread?" <------To whichever mod ends up changing it: PLEASE do not make me weep by neglecting to hyphenate the compound adjective. :cry:

Edit: applause to Grisha for hyphenating his! :cheers:
