@BryanAlexander Fascinating carpet. Would love to hear the thinking that went into that design

Yesterday's vanishing point corridor:

@runinthesnow "Millions of peaches, peaches to freeze..."

Got more snow. Our peach tree has blossomed, and I hope this cold snap doesn't kill all the peaches.

@BryanAlexander I'm glad you didn't get the red shirt.

I enjoyed this conversation very much. And now you can't unsee me on the ST:TNG Enterprise.

@runinthesnow You get used to it.

I've been having recurring dreams about losing my hair and going bald. Not fun.

@MerriamWebster I will now practice infixing in all the wrong spots just to be contrarifreakingan.

Congratu-BLEEPING-lations! It’s time we had a little talk about your use of expletive infixation. ‘Expletive infixation’ is the linguistic term for profanity inserted into a word for emphasis. (For this thread, we’ll use 'BLEEPING,' but feel free to substitute another word.)

@BryanAlexander C is for Chestburster, F is for Facehugger.
