Maybe better today? Happy Wednesday, anyway.

[Tusky]

Yes! Today will be jam packed full of wins

[Glaurung]

Not marmalade packed full of wins?

[Tusky]

No I don't think so. Also I'm not sure that is a sentence that makes sense...

[Glaurung]

If one can pack some jam full of wins, surely one can pack some marmalade full of wins too? Or is it just my weird brain that insists on finding alternative parsings of sentences that their creators never intended?

[Tusky]

Yeah I don't think idioms/phrases work that way - but it is fun to take them literally

[Glaurung]

Oh yes

[Tusky]

oh my

[Glaurung]

Mwa ha ha ha ha! All your bizarre idiomatic constructions are belong to us!

[Tusky]

Well, I'd love to take credit but they aren't mine really. I'm not sure who they belong to. Maybe whoever wrote the dictionary - that Robert Cawdrey fellow.

[Glaurung]

Not to worry: I will mis-parse them happily, whoever they belong to.

[Tusky]

Hey! My name isn't happily?!

[Glaurung]

I'll respond to that shortly. In the meantime, happy Thursday!

[Tusky]

My name is not shortly either!

But yes, happy Thursday

[Glaurung]

Thank you. I'll get back to you on the names thing presently.
