gingerale
Hmm.. For some reason I'm really craving for rooibos with chili peppers in it.
8:53:47
Shinmera
same menu as in japan, just a fried chicken breast and some fettucine
8:54:27
Shinmera
didn't say it wasn't
8:54:39
gingerale
Sorry, I wasn't trying to imply to
8:55:04
Shinmera
so anyway today's national founding day
8:55:20
Shinmera
which means we'll have annoying fireworks in the evening and a disgusting smell in the air through the night
8:55:58
gingerale
Happy Schweiz day, I guess.
8:56:18
gingerale
We only do fireworks on new years. Never started a tradition of them for independence day.
8:56:48
gingerale
Or do you prefer calling it Suisse?
8:57:26
gingerale
Haven't seen that spelling. Alright.
8:57:32
Shinmera
cause it's swiss german
8:57:36
gingerale
We just call it Sveitsi here.
8:57:57
Shinmera
Helvetia sounds best, tbh
8:58:04
gingerale
True. Helvetia is cool.
9:00:46
gingerale
It's doubly fun because of the Swedish word "Helvete" for Hell, which is what our word for it is based on as well.
9:01:13
Shinmera
do you have today off?
9:02:12
gingerale
Nope, just waiting for a timed event to trigger and then taking my lunch break.
9:02:43
gingerale
Dang. Timed event worked but not in the way I wanted it to. Ah well.
9:04:36
isoraqathedh
We have some new years fireworks.
9:04:47
isoraqathedh
Both new years, so one in January and one in January ~ February.
9:05:01
isoraqathedh
Although nowadays they're changing it to a drone show, which is at least less smokey.
9:05:29
gingerale
I do like those better. Especially nice for pets.
9:09:00
Shinmera
I don't care either way
9:09:20
Shinmera
I thoroughly burnt through all my interest in fireworks and such as a kid
9:09:56
isoraqathedh
It isn't interesting /by its own/ but it gives me a reason to leave the house and go places so I enjoy it in that respect.
9:10:14
Shinmera
though I'd be wary of the crowds
9:10:46
isoraqathedh
Like it used to be the case it's better to watch it from home because the TV broadcasts add the designated BGM and has better views, but I don't watch the telly anymore.
