Hubscore of 86! Mediocre and proud!

1. 96

   PaulGoodman67posted 10 years ago

   A lot of people in the community have been expressing concern about the reduced size of their hubscore recently.  Or alternatively, they have been boasting about how big it is.  I just wanted to say that there is nothing wrong with having a mediocre rating - in fact, I think those of us with non-exceptional scores should celebrate of our lack of extraordinariness and be proud!

         Wait a minute - I resemble that remark!  I think it's also healthy to bring forward concerns through appropriate channels!   And yes, it's healthy to be justifiably proud of accomplishments.

      I was in the eighties a couple of weeks ago. Obviously an oversight. And almost blotted from my consciousness, then and now.
      
      Remember, 'M' is not for mediocrity.

      I have seen the testing scores on the state tests, and compared to them 80% is downright genius!

   Hey, Simone:  Your Hubber score is slipping.  Did you do something bad - besides resign, I mean?

            Thanks for that. I didn't realize Beyonce was a singer. I thought it was something you pushed sharply into the Bosch before twisting and lifting.

               I guess so cause I would have to google at least half of that sentence before I could respond appropriately.

               I was going to ask:
               
               Who on earth starts work at 9 pm?
               
               But midnight is here and that is that...

                     Dear God, I worked 9pm -8am for years, and never suspected I might be a zombie. Could I be?
                     Not a vampire, but I do have one particularly large incisor on my lower jaw.

                     Yes, you did.  I wasn't sure about the 6 hours reference though.  Will is a Brit, but he resides in Thailand, as far I'm aware - I think they might be ahead in time, not behind the USA?

   That wasn't me yesterday. That was a couple of glasses of Hong Tong. You were lucky I didn't start speaking in tongues.

      It's ok, I have a terrible memory so I never remember anything, and a short attention span so I never read back. You could say just about anything to me and it probably wouldn't matter much 24 hours later.   What's hong tong?

         I think they brew up the slops from the distillery and throw in a few handfuls of regret.

            I did wonder if you were on something, when you appeared to confuse an old slang name for the Germans (Boche) with a popular washing machine brand (Bosch)!

               In my defense:
               
               Boche
               Pronounced [boʃ], boche is a term used in World War I, often collectively ("the Boche" meaning "the Germans"). A shortened form of the French slang portmanteau alboche, itself derived from Allemand ("German") and caboche ("head" or "cabbage"). Also spelled "Bosch" or "Bosche"
