GG.

Ohhh, so that's how pool works! Just... strike what you see and go from there.
|
Trust the pattern, Pibby. Solids, then stripes.
|
Oh yeah, that too.
|
Although things would be much different if we had a snooker table instead of a pool table.
|
Snooker...
|
I-it's a little more complex. You get the reds first, then you get the rest of the colours, in sequence within a frame. That frame is basically an individual game in a snooker match. That's... quite the pattern, hehe!
|
Ohhhhh!
|
Yknow, Milli... I was once watching a world championship snooker match in Sheffield back in 1982. They've been holding it at the Crucible since 1977; it's a theatre.
|
Huh...! I guess the English really do love their sports.
|
The thing about snooker is it's seen as more prestigious in the UK, whereas pool is more laid back. But the crowd is also quite relaxed, in a way like golf.
|
Steve Davis was the heavily favoured defending world champion, but lemme just say... he crashed hard. Tony Knowles, that son of a gun, shut on him 10–1.
|
Sigh, one off from my favourite number...
|
What kind of mathemagician would say that?
|
Oh dear...
|
It's just a sphere, Bot. I would know.
|
Soooo... how do you find the bar?
|
...Hehehehehhhhhhh-
|
Ohhhh, look what we have here! Ol' Mike's got a new bar! This day's full of firsts, eh?
|
Oh yeah. New competition. Like a decathlon but bigger. I don't know much about it though. But I'm sure it went somewhere.
|
Hmmmm...
|
HMM. YA LEARN SOMETHING NEW EVERYDAY, MAN.
|
Oooh! What's in that newspaper?
|
LET'S SEE... A PICTISH SLAB IN A SCOTTISH MANSION... COACHING (AND WINNING) BACK-TO-BACK VANIER CUPS... 19th-CENTURY PERUVIAN LGBTQ+ HISTORY... 19th-CENTURY REMOTE WORKING...
|
Remote working in the 19th century?
|
SHE WAS A TELEGRAPHIST. MAYBE SHE SENT OUT MORSE CODE MESSAGES IN HER OWN HOUSE?
|
What did she say out there?
|
Maybe something like, "SUX"?
|
Oh ho ho ho!
|
Oh, they really like it here. Hmph.
|
I mean, sure, it's got all the chill vibes.
|
I was being sarcastic.
