I first heard him say this ...certainly more than 5 years ago... and it's true for me to this day. Courtesy of Patch Linden, this week's TIL: Stipends are paid out on Tuesday because .... "I'll gladly pay you Tuesday for a hamburger today." https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/J._Wellington_Wimpy And there you have it. @Grumpity LindenHere's an SL lore question -- I once was able to get Oz Linden's bear by asking him this question he didn't know the answer to. Let's say you have group fee debits turned on, and you promise your group that they will only have to pay 2L per week. How can you reimburse them if the amount goes over?

Callum Meriman 7,160 Posted March 12, 2018 Share Posted March 12, 2018 Weirdly, I never collected anyone's bear. Wonder if anyone has a full set! Link to post Share on other sites
Phil Deakins 3,297 Posted March 12, 2018 Share Posted March 12, 2018 Not so weird. I also never acquired any. They simply don't appeal to me. Link to post Share on other sites

Alright, I won't cheat and ask other Lindens, so I guess you can have a bear if you want one as well ... today I also learned the word "tenterhooks" but that's besides the point.

Catrie 16,809 Posted March 12, 2018 Share Posted March 12, 2018 today I learned that I really need to check my full outfit before taking pics. Wore 2 hairstyles, but didn't notice until afterwards, because they were colored the same. >.< 3 Link to post Share on other sites

However, the real thing I learnt was that there is mention of a "Runcible Cat" in Lear's "The Pobble Who Has No Toes" Yep, I guess most people learn this in Kindergarten, I guess I missed out again! Today I learned that runcible was once a nonsense word. At the time Lear made it up it had no meaning. But over time it came to be understood that runcible meant a serrated edge as in the runcible spoon, it refers to a specialty spoon with a serrated edge, useful for consuming such things as grapefruits.

Love Zhaoying 12,553 Posted March 13, 2018 Share Posted March 13, 2018 I see the “serrated” part more as a spoon with a “knife edge” than a spork. 22 minutes ago, LittleMe Jewell said: 39 minutes ago, kali Wylder said: A spork Link to post Share on other sites

kershe 248 Posted March 16, 2018 Share Posted March 16, 2018 TIL that when I lay out my clothes for tomorrow, I ought to put my underwear on top, because in my distraction this morning I very nearly ran out of the house without any. ALSO, I want to go back to the sackcloth discussion on page one. I don't believe at all that it was called that because it covered a man's sack. Sackcloth is the cloth that sacks are made from. Burlap is such a cloth. The point of wearing it, rather than making it into a sack (for carrying things) is that burlap is very rough and uncomfortable, which is the point of mortifying the flesh. Also, nuns (who have no ballsacks, wore sackcloth. Link to post Share on other sites
