Accent quiz revisited
Nov. 9th, 2007 09:16 pmWhat American accent do you have? (Best version so far) Northeastern This could either mean an r-less NYC or Providence accent or one from Jersey which doesn't sound the same. Just because you got this result doesn't mean you don't pronounce R's.(People in Jersey don't call their state "Joisey" in real life) |

This is apparently a new and improved version of the accent quiz we've seen before - it does seem to be more region-specific than before.
I wish I could see all the options.
Cleaning: Free Stuff
Jul. 25th, 2007 06:00 pmNone of the below are available any more, as I've completed the cleaning and moveout. Yay!
If you are within driving distance of me and want any of the below, let me know; some are small enough to be mailable. Some of it's vague b/c I'm too lazy to write too much about it or b/c I haven't yet created a full pile but I know I will by the end of the summer; I can clarify more if you want stuff or want to know what it is. Nearly everything is used, with condition ranging from "needs cleaning" to "like new," with a few random items being unused. Clothing that does not get claimed will go to Goodwill, the others will go on the sidewalk with a "free" sign or to Freecycle. As items go away I will strike them off the list. New items will go on the top.
- Assorted bath/shower/floofy stuff - fizzy bath scents, bath beads, hair spray/goop, scent spray, lotions, etc. Most have been partially used, some I've had for years.
- Assorted purses/handbags
Assorted computer/wiring items - 2 keyboards, 1 mouse, wireless keyboard/mouse (having problems), phone wires, speaker wires, Win98 copied CD, parallel port wire, wires for old HDs to motherboards...Put on lawn w/ FREE sign for first taker.Reading glassesDitto.Book on tangrams - book and 2 sets of plastic pieces. Good for kids already in school. Mailable if you reimburse me.Ditto.Bike Computer - one of those little units where you have a sensor on a wheel and it measures your speed and distance and things like that. Mailable.Claimed byrumorofrain
Logo T-shirts - sizes S, M, L. All have been worn, most are in like-new condition.Being donated to the family of a student at my school whose house burned down w/ all their posessions inside. (No injuries reported.) Family includes two adult women (a college student and her mother), 2 young girls, and a young boy.Assorted other clothing - I wear size S/XS on top, M (8 or 10) on bottom.Ditto.Assorted shoes - I usually wear size 7 or 7.5 in dress shoes/boots, and size 8-9 in sneakers/causual boots/shoes. I've more dress to get rid of than casual ones, as I buy them thinking they fit and after an evening of wear I'm limping, and I forget to return them, so most of these are worn once but will be dusty or scuffed from sitting in boxes.Ditto.Christmas gift bags - some are generic winter holiday. Mailable.Free-signedNintendo NES w/ assorted games - I have two NESs, one does not work, the other needs blowing on most of the time.Going tokelsin.
Assorted winter hats, including a Sherlock Holmes -style one.GoodwillHandmade clay plates set, dark green glaze, clunky style. Sizes from cake plates to dinner plates, flat bottoms w/ a lip, some have small chips, not dishwasher or microwave safe. These served me well throughout college from a friend's roommate, but I haven't used them in years.Free-signedRandom other useful potteryFree-signedStuffed dolls - from 6" tall to 3' tall, mostly bunnies and teddy bears. Need a dusting, vacuuming, or washing machine. Good for you or gifts.Designated for neighborsBirdcage in POOR condition - this one probably should go to the trash, but I can't bear to throw it out w/o seeing if anyone wants to fix it up. It's 13"x17"x24", 3/4" bar spacing, rounded top, metallic rusted bars - new owner should paint the cage w/ a non-toxic paint that won't flake, or get it powder coated or something. I will NOT give this to you if you're going to use it as-is or resell it, it's dangerous to a bird as-is, and is why I'm/Gabe's no longer using it.Garbage
