    I thought no one noticed that

    We’re detail focused people.
    You’ve been warned.

    Are you filing extensions this time of year too? 😮

    No.
    For some reason there’s folks out there who think I’m an accountant. I’m not.
    But I do know the accounting world.

    I only thought you were an accountant because you were MIA for a couple of days and, well, it's tax season....no other reason to not be on mfp, right, must be an accountant!

    ...pssst...dont be creeped out because I notice when people aren't around...I make up reasons for them.
    So and so is on vacation, so and so is dealing with their neighbour's sick dog, y'know

    *edit
    Just noticed you said "folks", so my southern states guess was right!

    You folks don’t say folks? I say folks and I’m more canadian than southern

    Nope never
    It's a weird word to me, like I think it means "people" in general or it's referring to your parents. Not commonly used here (by people I know anyhow). I'd say "you people" or "my parents" (but I never say that because they are not a unit, lol, for me it's mom, dad or step-dad or stepmonster)

    Got me curious, heard a local say "trash" the other day (referring to garbage). Thought he must be American.
    I obviously get it, what they are talking about and know Americans use the word for garbage, but got me thinking...I use it for commenting on appearance "trashy" looking or just a negative like "trash talk".

    What do you say there Cakey? For some reason I think we have regional similarities.

    I will say take out the trash or trash can but I didn’t grow up hearing it that way. ‘Garbage’ is just such a harsh unpleasant word rolling off the tongue 😅

    Ya, but... Garbage is garbage...nothing pleasant about it.

    "Trash" -
    "you look trashy" (could be a compliment?!)
    "I got trashed" (maybe had fun?!)

    This is never a compliment.

    well...in some scenarios i suppose, a person, like a guy for example, maybe he likes the "trashy" look a lil bit and so it *could* be a compliment im just saying who are we to judge anybody else yknow i thought this was america

    Ok let me rephrase. I would never take "you look trashy" as a compliment. Because that isn't the look I go for.

    BUT TO EACH THEIR OWN THOUGH, OK.

    What if you were to dress up a Oscar the Grouch for Halloween and someone said you look really trashy. How about then?

    Off to google trashy oscar the grouch halloween costumes

    w2cvfgpjhsyx.jpg

    I feel sorry for that model...her hands say "wtf"
    The wrist sweat bands and ugly leg warmers need to come off!

    i think you'd prefer the Ernie costume from the same lineup

    SHOW ME!!
    And wait a minute...is this an inside joke I don't quite get?!

    In the everyday day way i agree, but on some special occasions...

    I vibe with that, yes.

    I have a few masquerade masks at home, made of leather. Sort of a "nautical" design, my wife made them when we went to the Theater Bizarre in Detroit a few years back.

    Thanks, I'll pass on those compliments to her! She was thinking of doing more and selling them for a while, but she kinda lost interest. I thought they came out really awesome. They took her a lot of time though.

    OK people
    ...what's your costume?
    (not asking about your furry sex preferences...if you want to share tho, that's cool too!)

    But what would you dress up as at a costume party?

    Ernie or my glamorous masquerade idea are me (I may go and change a few times! I like playing dress-up!)

    I've always like the Coachella, festival wear, Burning Man look. No way I could get away with it in real life, but I'd pick something like that for party wear if I had the chance.

    That's awesome!

    Suits you, mysterious, fun and individual!
