Fair enough.






I don't have any indigenous names for where I live.

*tries not to feel superior*
Infant Ebby is a smol, out-of-control firebending terror. It's a good thing she's also quite cute.

May the road rise up to meet you.
May the wind be always at your back.
May the sun shine warm upon your face,
And rains fall soft upon your fields.
And until we meet again,
May God hold you in the palm of His hand.

Yup. Another reason you should come and visit Aotearoa. You can borrow our massive Calvin and Hobbes books.

It is very good. I love the one when Calvin blows a bubblegum bubble to big and it pops over his face. He feels his face with his hands and says "Good gracious, I think I blew my face inside out!" I don't know why I find it so funny, I just do.

I used to quote Calvin and Hobbes all of time... They're awesome!
"I can only speak two languages. English and rubbish." ~Brian Jacques

"No half-heartedness and no worldly fear must turn us aside from following the light unflinchingly."

"Evil labours with vast power and perpetual success - in vain: preparing always only the soil for unexpected good to sprout in."

~JRR Tolkien

Long live the RRR!

Hobbes' choice?
No. Hobson's choice. It's when you only have bad options.

It is.
So instead, let's talk about..........................................................Idunno, meeting other forum members? Calvin and Hobbes? Other random subjects that have been discussed over the pages?

Yeah, good plan. Does anyone know (without looking it up in a book or on the internet) what the other name for nightshade is, and why?

"Atropa Belladonna" is the scientific name. I know it's been a staple for "witches" because it can be used as a narcotic when applied to the skin, and was something they would apparently do.
The berries can be made into jam which is not poisonous, despite the plant being poisonous itself.
I think it takes quite a bit of consumption to kill a person, but don't quote me on that.
It may have also been made into a cream to make the skin pale, since the chemicals blanched the skin, (this the "bella" part of the name, meaning "beautiful), but I believe that was dangerous.
