OH WOW! I used to go there on weekends when I was in college!

Where did you go to college?

Syracuse University

So, not near Chattanooga.

Syracuse University

Thought so. My son is going to grad school there.

Nowadays young men may knit hats and there is a whole section for pervy knits in Ravelry (knittin & crocheting site)

Ravelry is the best!

Well now that you’ve removed the excuse of I can’t draw a straight line as my reason for not knitting. Now we are going with I just can’t bring myself to try. Not my style!

I much prefer to browse Lit and talk to random people than subject myself to knitting. Is sewing still a thing? My grandma use to do that all the time!

Not my style is fine! Just not letting you get away with that straight line excuse!

I started knitting in a serious way before cell phones had actually fun things on them, and I had to spend a fuckton of time in hospitals and waiting rooms with my second husband. I hate not having something to do. It's a great thing to keep you hands busy anyway. In public.

I am just wondering if these ever get worn, and if they do, could I stop laughing long enough to get off the floor?

Ha, I did not even have a cell phone until I had a second husband!

But also cell phones did not start amusing me much until smartphones really. The early ones were more boring than knitting.

Maybe the intent is to get you on the floor!

I’ve never seen or used them, but I can’t imagine walking into the room wearing only the Peter heater and still feeling manly enough to get up and lay the smack down.

I've knitted quite a lot on airfields - my ex has model planes as a hobby and I joined him on some competition trips, even other happenings.

yeah, for now, kid found a destroyed nest on the ground over the weekend. This one was still left inside. I should be able to release him in about 3 months or so.
