Last weeks thread here

Welcome to this week’s casual kōrero thread!

This post will be pinned in this community so you can always find it, and will stay for about a week until replaced by the next one.

It’s for talking about anything that might not justify a full post. For example:

  • Something interesting that happened to you

  • Something humourous that happened to you

  • Something frustrating that happened to you

  • A quick question

  • A request for recommendations

  • Pictures of your pet

  • A picture of a cloud that kind of looks like an elephant

  • Anything else, there are no rules (except the rule)

So how’s it going?

    On road trips my parents used to get us kinder with:

    When you see a horse you can’t talk until you see a dog.

    I now use it on my child units.

      Haha does that actually work? I would think you’d see them in quite different places, and depending on the time of day you might not see a dog very often at all!

        Yup, incredibly variable.

        It also tends to trigger debates about whether pictures of said animals count. Which is a good discussion rather than siblings fighting about how ugly the other one is.
