The normal form of 'curious'

Special K: Interesting but not surprising.

b1: EXACTLY the words I use to describe you to my friends.

A pinch of Canadian heaven for < US$10

b1-66er: <claw package pic>
And so it begins.
<claws on steamer tray>
<prepared claws resting on ramen>

D4rw1n: That crab situation looks delicious

b1: Yeah.
I was in Walmart getting my second booster and saw lobster claws half off for hitting their expiration date...
Bargain expiring shellfish at Walmart seems like a recipe for disaster for with the kid who's had deathly food poisoning in his life...
... But the siren call of DISCOUNT crossed with lobster was a gravity my mortal human couldn't avoid.
Steamed them in water with a touch of 100% lemon juice.
Really really good.
I very rarely fix something 'fancy' for myself.

D4rw1n: Fancy bargain expiring shellfish dish. Good band name

b1: <Wombo>

D4: Or Dr. Seuss title 

b1-67er: Culinary Russian Roulette

Wait a second...

Special K: "Time Might Not Exist, According to Physicists"

b1-66er: How long did it take them to figure THAT out?

Special K: ALL and no time.

Horrible yes ... but EXPENSIVE

KĻ€: On the opposite end of my yummy Omsom meal...I just opened my 3rd bottle of fancy non-alcoholic beverage. It is terrible.  Of the 3 bottles (that cost about $100) I found one to be okay, one I didn't like much, and this one is just nasty. 
"Spicy, fruity, with a hint of vinegar"
They forgot to mention "rancid"

Where IS that bottle of acid?

b1-66er: <Wombo>

b1-67er: If Wombo would lay off the psychedelics it might have a better chance of finding what it's looking for.

A certain type/typography of grumpy old man

b1-66er: I think K and U are particularly bad.

Z: The font is cool but what do K and I share? Messiness?

b1: K and U share unintelligibility and lack of individual clarity.

Z: Oh I get it now. Seems like you and I share unintelligibility as well. šŸ˜‰

b1: Yes.
I have no problem with fanciness or flourish.
I have a lot of problem with indiscernibility...
... Since the alphabet acts as the most atomic elements for making things understood.

Z: I would say that font is sort of like most modern UI's today - it's striking and beautiful, but largely incomprehensible. In short, it fails at the one job is should be good at.

¡A Salty Easter to You!

b1-66er: <Wombo>

Major Math: My kindergarten days were boring in comparison

b1: They wanted to hold me back in kindergarten because they felt I wasn't 'socially mature enough,' enraging my father and resulting in me talking to a couple different school psychologists...
... And you can see the results. 
They were clearly right.

M²: You should have brought some margaritas in. That would have displayed a little social maturity.
