We’ve moved again! We now have a whole new second floor to flood with comments! And look at those exposed brick walls – surely this is nothing other than our greatest tavern to date!
This is the place for off-topic chat, sharing and hanging out, so pull up a chair and settle in!
I’m sure BlogTeam is already looking shiftily towards the sign outside – The Cat’s Meow – and wondering who will be the first to look behind it at the secret page held within.
You can find the old Tavern here!

why is it so hot
someone pls explain
yeah same 😛 it was almost at 95 degrees fahrenheit last week! (or 35 celsius, for those of you who hate freedom 😉 )
yo you just said I hate freedom :'((
it’s supposed to be 37°C on Thursday here which means I’m officially deceased 😀
shiv hates freedom spread the word
Does s/he?
Wot I LOVE freedom like you don’t know 😛
tx weather sucks sometimes
But…Spidey…Taiwan loves freedom, Taiwan uses Celsius….
(Literally, when it was made law that motorcycle riders have to wear helmets, some people got really mad that the law was trying to control them and wore pots on their heads with the words for “helmet” written in sharpie 😛 )
(And plastic straws are banned but some stores obviously don’t care)
Oof 😛
I’m familiar with both Celsius and Fahrenheit 😉
I have a similar story but not really 😛
a few months ago, the HOA (homeowners’ association) was asking people to take down their swings, and they said if it was a clothesline, it could stay up. my dad said if they came back (which they didn’t, the swing argument must’ve died out) he was going to hang clothes on our swing and say it was a clothesline 😛
My mom hates the HOA with all her being 😛
We don’t have an HOA 😛
We don’t have an HOA, which is a relief because I watched a show (Fresh Off the Boat) where they have one, and I would probably start a full-on revolution if we did 😛
Frosto your dad is holy 😛
Ooh I love Fresh Off the Boat! That was my guilty pleasure like a few months ago 😛
we worship him … he worships our dog 😛
but your mom is god
I don’t know why but I don’t like it
Freedom??
don’t worry shiv hates it too 🙂
I luv having my freedom 😛
Hey,I like freedom! Carolina girl here!
Awesome 😀
Cloudy where I am 😛
Can relate
Where I live it’s 33 degrees celsius but for you in London I bet it’s awful ! Thursday Is going to be the worst day apparently
yeah it was like 34°C here it’s so ridiculous

In Taiwan it was 40 C (104 F), and now in California it’s 19 C (66 F).
its 84F in cali where I am right now can I come visit you
I’m in SoCal, so I guess it depends where you are in Cali?

And it was super humid and my grandma refused to turn on the AC 😛
ahhh same it’s so hot here D: we didn’t even get a beak from the heat in Mexico, since it’s hot and humid there too 😛
me too shivyy
same as maple- it was 33 degrees celsius here today (oxford)
We just got over a 2 week drought. It was 95 some degrees but felt like 100°. I was like, *It’s fine! What are you talking about? ”
Fahrenheit obviously

I see we all have different opinions on what state it’s in 😛

It’s an area out in the middle of Arizona known for extraterrestrial sightings (aliens) that’s highly classified under the US government 😀 Basically, everyone’s going to storm it on September 20 (though it’s confirmed to be a joke 😛 )

That second one tho 😛
I’m flying for the first time tomorrow yikes
give me some tips people I’m scared 😛
Don’t psych yourself out! Just breathe. Bring a book or listen to music or something to distract you. There might even be movies on the plane.
Bring a spare blanket of they don’t provide one, and bring a moisturizing mask since the air is super duper dry
Ooffff
Maybe bring a blanket, book or technology to occupy time? There also might be movies on the plane? 😛
you got this Shivy! Bring books and art supplies, and download music, movies & tv shows to watch on the plane. They make the time fly by. If you’re not scared of heights, look out the window as you rise/descend before you hit the clouds because the view is a m a z i n g!! Also eat something chewy while you rise/descend so your ears don’t pop. Have a good flight! 🙂
oof well have fun 😛
try to distract yourself, and the time’ll go by faster! safe travels <3
It’ll be fine shivy, don’t worry
1. Stand by a broomstick.
2. Stick out your right hand over your broom and say “Up!”
3. Kick off from the ground, hard.
4. Keep your broom steady.
5. Rise a few feet to start.
6. Come back down by leaning forwards slightly.
Oops, you didn’t mean that type of my flying, sorry, my bad 😛 😉
I’ve been flying since I was under a year old and I do it at least 2 times a year, sometimes even 6, so I’m pretty experienced. (In fact I was on a flight two days ago.)
-Bring lotion since it’s really dry.
-Bring noise-cancelling headphones if you have them to block out cabin noise, crying babies, people coughing, people sneezing, people snoring, and other annoying sounds 😛 . You can also listen to music! 😀 🎶
-Devices have to be on airplane mode.
-Bring a book or eReader to keep busy.
-Bring an eye mask in case the airline doesn’t provide one.
-Try to sleep, it will make adjusting to the time difference easier.
-Airline food is very bad unless you’re in business, so if you don’t feel well, don’t eat them.
-The button with a person icon on it is for calling the flight attendant. Don’t press it. 😛
-Just as a warning, the toilet flush is VERY loud and it’s startling.
-Bring something to chew on for descending so your ears don’t pop.
-If you’re in premium/deluxe economy the seats can lean back at bit and you can rest your feet and adjust the head area.
-If you’re in business you basically have a bed.
-Bring a blanket if the airline doesn’t provide them.
-If something seems scary, try to focus on something else, like breathing or holding on tight to the armrest.
-Turbulence (shaking) does happen, but the plane crashing is extremely unlikely. To feel safer, hold on tight to something.
-The airlines I’ve been on have videos about safety and precautions in the beginning, and there’s also a safety card for further reference.
-Sleep, watch movies, read, keep distracted. 🙂
Flying on an airplane isn’t all that scary, it’s mostly the anticipation if it’s your first time. It’s mostly just a bit uncomfortable, depending on long your flight is and what class you’re in. Take deep breaths if you’re scared, I promise nothing bad will happen, I have flown many times and nothing bad has happened to me, the worst being having to wait on the plane for an hour after landing because of a delay, which wasn’t really bad at all. 🙂
Funny story about me on an airplane that my mom told me since I was 1 year old at the time:
Normally babies cry a lot during flights because it hurts their ears, but I didn’t, so the lady behind my parents and I told my mom that I was a good baby and that she hadn’t even noticed there was a baby on the plane. Then I saw an old man with a toupee! I reached out my hand and was about to snatch it from his head, but luckily my mom saw me in time and snatched my hand back. 😛 Don’t remove people’s wigs, Shivy. 😉
Yeah, I’m pretty nervous about airplanes too! But here are some things I have found helpful:
Bring along books, magazines, songs, you name it – plenty of entertainment to keep yourself distracted. And don’t get stressed if you can’t fall asleep on the plane (I used to, as I worried about jet lag – and that backfired, as it usual made me even more awake – but no matter what, it ends up fine! Even just a bit of relaxing rest can do wonders, and so can a sleeping mask 🙂 ). Noise-canceling headphones are also good. Ginger chews can help against airsickness and ear-popping – but earplugs are great too! (For ear-popping, not airsickness. 😛 )
Have a nice flight!
Bring some gum to chew for your ears during takeoff 🙂 It helps me and also distracts me too ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Just bring something to distract yourself if you’re nervous! When I’d fly between my mom’s and my dad’s I’d bring a book or talk to the person next to me. It really helped me calm down. Hope that helped a little :p
Song suggestion for today is Arrow by Half•Alive! I think Hoot will like this song so Hoot listen to it pls 🙂

WAI DO MY LEGS HURT I ONLY DID 20 SQUATS YESTERDAY! :C This is crazy! Will this happen every time I work out??
Oof but don’t worry
My hip flexor has been sore for the past five days this is insane I can barely stretch a split and leaps and jumps are torrrrrrrturrrrrre
Ooh dear! I’ve messed up my hip flexor a couple of times and it’s no fun at all.
I really hope I haven’t pulled it or something 😛
Ugh exactly I can barely walk without looking funny uuugggghhhhhh
Aw I’m sorry about that ☹️ My friend has a hip flexor injury from ballet, and she can’t do ballet or run at all for a while. (I think it’s her hip flexor)
Sorry this probably didn’t help 😛
Ah it’s ok Owly! Yeah I also have a friend with a hip flexor injury, she has to ice it a lot and she says it hurts 🙁 But she’s very conscious of when something in her body is hurting (she actually also has a concussion at the moment) so she takes good care of it and it normally doesn’t bother her 🙂
oof hope you feel better soon ❤️
Rip
my kneecaps hurt … of all places to be sore 😛
Ugh that sucks :C
That’s a big mood.
Sorry about that though 😕
Yeah, but as you build up your endurance they’ll stop hurting. Besides, small aches usually mean your muscles are growing! Remember to stretch and to add on a little when it stops hurting so you can keep growing your muscles 🙂
Thanks Wavey!
no pain no gain 😔
You’ll be fine though, I promise
Cool 😀
Once I had to do 100 kick squats in hundred degree weather and then immediately passed out from dehydration :’)

I’m slightly ticked off that my Imagine Dragons songs aren’t on Spotify 😛
I’m 90% sure these don’t have cursing/anything inappropriate in them as I got them when I was younger. But there’s still a slight chance but I doubt it. Give them a listen if you can, they’re really good. I’d give descriptions for each song if I knew how. 😛 But there’s a good variety in there I think 😛 Thanks if you actually did listen to them 😛
I love Imagine Dragons 😀
Awwww I love E.T.
Nostalgiaaaaaa
cool 😄
Wolf is one of my favorite songs of all time! I saw FAK at a concert once and it was awesome!
Thanks for the music suggestions! 😀 I like “Believer” from Imagine Dragons 😛
blast et at area 51
Why are we so much alike?
I like Round and around and Eyes Wide Open
I’ll try to listen to them 😀
I know some of those songs!! Wings is amazing and I have it on my phone as well as the iPod I took to camp 🙂
TAYLOR SWIFT JUST RELEASED A NEW SONG!! It’s really good!! It reminds me of my Warrior Cat OC Shellfrost!
OoOoHh! What’s it called? 😀
The Archer, I think😀
noice 😀
Oooooooh!!!! Really!? I’ll listen to it when I can 😀
Well, I mean here’s my problem with the raid y’all know:
So 1), obviously, we all know the time traveler and the Area 51 massacre. That’s errr… quite something. But then, like even if some people manage to get past the front guards, you do realize that the base is somewhere in a very large area (140 square km???), so you may be searching for hours, and at this time, guards are still looking for you. So it’s like the last episode of Escape the Night but it’s out in the day and there’s so many people looking for you.
So kids, don’t do it. Tbh, who even came up with this? 😛
😛
They cant stop us all
Guards:
challenge accepted
gonna see them aliens
my question is: what if it’s something really dangerous, and the government is trying to protect us? 😛
we’ll cross that bridge when we come to it
the government???? doing something to help us???? radical
dude this is like, on the verge of not being moderated, so watch ur back 😉
dude you don’t even know every time I go to type something even vaguely controversial I go into mini panic mode it really be like that anxiety life
bro sorry I just meant that anything mentioning politics shouldn’t really be on here but ur fine
usually I’m not the biggest fan of the government either, but for this, I trust them 😛
I’m in
The guy who came up with this makes memes😛
