The plural of berry is berries. Plurals are not made with apostrophe-s. Please note that your license to criticise the grammar/spelling of others have now been revoked. (Not that lack of a license stops me.)
stimulus is fun!!
betwixt my stimulus and tax refund i've spent 100bux. i'm too scared to spend right now. scared my 401k wont bounce back.
when my work from home break is over, dunno if i can handle going back to office. would be nice if i can skate on savings til retirement kicks in
“Has” , not “have”, because the thing being revoked is the license (singular), rather than the others (plural).
i imagine "Boysenberry's" was a copy paste so didnt have to type it out.
dropping pronouns and ' saves on typing. and ending sentences with propositions is plain wild and living life on the edge of
cat like typing detected
maybe having too many browser tabs open causes the USB wifi adapter to cut out? Too many connections or TCP ports are open? Hopefully the issue isn't with the internet cable outside or the equipment box.
Do you pronounce "berry" as "bare-ry" or "ber-ry"? Do you pronounce "bury" as "bare-ry" or "bur-ry"?
English is weird. Take the case of the role of the appended 's' on nouns & verbs. Singular vs plural, which one gets the 's'? A dog jumps, but dogs jump, but I saw a dog jump. A bird sings, but birds sing, but I heard a bird sing.
I pronounce both berry and bury as "beh-ree". Raised in Queens, NY for any linguistic mappers in the audience.
i raised in Greenpoint and Astoria

my manager gave me a brownie point for being ready. earned my pay for the day
Maybe it was a dual license! One to criticize grammar and spelling, one to criticize others.

I can't recall (it was a long time ago) but either I changed what I was writing half way through or it was a mistake. I did write are when I meant ah the other day, which may lend moe support to one possibility than to the other.
You were raised in Greenpoint and Astoria...?
I grew up on Crescent Street near Queens Plaza... technically, Long Island City/Dutch Kills... most of my freinds lived in Astoria, which was the more civilized area... L.I.C. was all factories and smoldering craters back then.
My friend's family had a deli in Greenpoint, near the big commercial laundry facility (they did hotel and restaurant restaurant linens) that used to be there... I think it was around Franklin street near Greenpoint Avenue... I used to ride my bike over the bridge on McGuiness Blvd (Pulaski?) to go help/hang out there.
Small Galaxy it is.
During college in Florida, I had a friend who was from, I believe, Queens. He'd talk about a park with tall stone columns that had been severly vandalized. I never saw the name written but it sounded something like "Ontemira Park"? Am I even in the right burough?
There's Onteora Park, but that's not near Queens, it's a good ways up the Hudson. Close enough for a day trip from Queens if one were so inclined.
i grew up thinking bialys were for boys and bagels were girls,
its how the family dynamics worked
is still light outside,, weird, it feels like midnight-ish
Not that I was ever aware of... The closest thing I can think of is in Astoria park... It has the Hell Gate Bridge running through it on the north end, it's a very unique railroad bridge that looks similar to the Sydney Harbor Bridge in Australia (the bridge in Oz was actually inspired by the hell gate design)... there is a series of very tall support pylons that hold up the track... for decades they were full of graffiti...
The arched support pylons on the left are the ones I mentioned.
Just popped into my head. It was in Yonkers. A quick google found Untermeyer Gardens & Park. https://www.untermyergardens.org/ But back in the '60s my friend lived near there and said it was very run-down and practically a Roman ruin with toppled columns broken statues, etc.
Interesting trick the brain plays on word sounds. Many years ago back in the dark ages when actual record shops still existed I went looking for a classical piece that I sort of knew the title of but not exactly. The salesman in the shop (Yes, the big record shop in the DuPont Circle area of downtown Washington, DC had an actual attendant in a suit & tie for the special room where the classical LPs and new fangled CDs were sold and listened to.) saw me browsing and asked if he could help me find something. I replied, "Yes, I'm looking for that piece that is used in the "Conan The Barbarian Movie". He had no idea about the Conan movie and looked a little aloof and I think was about to assume I was a ruffian and wasn't serious and drop me for another customer. Then I said "I don't know the title exactly but the title sounds like, or has the cadence of the words "Anna Karenina". Which I pronounced very carefully with proper emphasis on the alternating syllables. The changing look on his face over the next few moments was priceless as he tried to figure out how the title of a hundred year old Tolstoy novel about aristocratic Russian infidelity could have anything to do with a barbarian movie soundtrack, then the meanings of my words hit him, his face lit up and he asked, do you mean "Carmina Burana"? That he pronounced with the same sing-song cadence. Which was indeed the music that I was after. Once he'd realized that despite my complete leather outfit and mohawk haircut and motorcycle helmet in hand, I had a brain and it was actually OK to talk to me.
We got along great for several more minutes as I found my CD and with his help a couple other classical selections.
Carl Orff: "O Fortuna" from "Carmina Burana" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AdIpoE2LEps
@LeatherGryphon ,you are the one person that I think might know this but I've been trying to figure out what is the music playing when the Red Skull is having his portrait painted in Captain America:The First Avenger ..... do you by any chance know?
series finale of big bang theory was sweet *snffls*
I love that song, it's so POWERFUL.
Sorry, never seen it.
If I find it available I'll check it out.
OK, I need to vent. I hope it's ok to crash this party.
Just got reprimanded on an different 3D related site because my posts violated the TOS. Luckily no serious consequences, but a lot of inconvenience as I have to re-upload everything.
Now, I realise that not knowing the rules is no excuse. I didn't do it on purpose but I did violate the TOS, so that's on me.
But first of all, a warning would have been nice. I had no ill intent and I would have gladly adjusted the posts if given the chance.
But more importantly, I actually did read the TOS before posting and it says nothing about the subject in question. Turns out that they have split their TOS into several parts and scattered it across different sections of the site. Reading one part of the TOS gives no indication that more rules can be found somewhere else on the site. Who does that? JEEZ.

What? When and why did I pass 10,000 Posts? Someone stop me before I post again...
Who collects the dues? They're not making it easy to be a licensed Complaint Thead member.
More importantly, who collects the Don'ts?
