I'm still upset that I didn't hear you saying "ethos" last night even though you were all basically talking about it given that it's been in almost every post XD there it is again!

It's not odd at all. My computers have all had names and my last four phones have had as well (once they got to a stage where they were capable of doing appreciably more than just make phone calls and do texts in a way that wasn't gimmicky).

Was good to chat last night huh, although you were a little difficult to hear. Still, was a bit of fun. I can't believe I was around for that long although I had a phone call in the middle so was gone for a bit. I completely forgot to write brb in the text though. Silly me. So uncool.

I don't name a lot of things. we named a couple cars, but two out of 45 or so isn't much. I call my Landcruiser Big Dog though. Seems to fit.

So, give me an example of a computer or phone name...

Not sure of the quality of the mic on my tablet (it's a Cintiq Companion Hybrid, basically a drawing tablet on top of an Android tablet), I'd maxed out the input on Discord but I guess it didn't really help much. Should probably have used my phone but I was curious after finding out I did actually have unexpected webcam and mic attached to my big rig XD

Explanations after the fact are perfectly fine, sometimes things happen unexpectedly and you need to deal with them right then and there and there's no time to tell people you're afk XD

My last computer was ajana (because it had three "eyes", the built in monitor as it was an iMac, another monitor and the Cintiq, and I'd misspelt/misread ajna) and the last phone that J currently has was megaphone (because why are phones so damn big these days, was a Samsung S something or other), and I once had a tiny Macbook (a 12" G4 Powerbook, when they actually came in tiny and before they were called Macbooks) named dragonfly.

Pretty cools names and good reasons for them...I know right? Phones are so damned big and yet, they don't make pockets any bigger! What's up with that?

If you ever wear women's clothing, watch out for the fake pockets. I don't even know why that's a thing but one of my friends got caught out.

I usually wear cargoes (though they must be out of fashion or something as sometimes I struggle to find new ones when I need them) so pocket size isn't much of an issue (unless the cargoes are stupid as sometimes happen and the cargo pockets are a useless size or the flaps don't do up properly because they're made for some idiotic "look"). As I think I've mentioned previously mine mostly travels in a bag since I started needing to carry a first aid kit around XD

It's unlikely I'll even wear women's clothing, I'm just not that guy, however I'll file this information away just in case I do. Lol.

Yep, you said you wear cargo's a lot. I do too actually, mostly from 5.11 but also plain old workman/tradie style also. They have pockets and all, which I often fill up with stuff, sometimes phones.

I think a lot of clothing is simply designed around look rather than function, and so if I happen to find something I like a lot, is utilitarian and just plain old good, I look after it because there's no telling what will be around next time I need something.

Well, I have to say, you make an excellent point, and if I was ever to have the need to go under cover this is exactly the way I would do it. I think I'd probably not have the moves, but would have the look for sure!

(I like this movie...I know, I'm a big kid.)
