omg, @atheist, you used the word hunky and didn't mean a slang term for black people!!! It's been YEARS since I've heard that (obviously I'm not in Hunkyland any longer)!

It's my German and Polish background coming out. I don't make borscht but when there are fewer people, I make my own latkes. And, of course, we have to have sauerkraut again at my mother's house tomorrow just to be sure we have luck in the new year. I think it's really because we like to eat. Will you be having any hunky food tonight?

It varies on the whims of the group, @silvereyes, but usually there's at least one card game of 500 Bid, and I got two new ones this year: Sushi Go! and Quiddler. We're big on games ... we have a lot of boba tea houses here where you can bring a group to play games for hours while drinking tea.

@silvereyes, I like Scrabble, too! I only have two people locally to play with, tho. It turns out that Sushi Go! was a lot more fun than we thought - fast, loose enough that you can talk while playing, and short rounds. I've never gone to a gaming meetup but it sounds like fun. Is it crazy competitive?

Wow, @atheist, I had no idea there was such community there - I've never even been to a place that had (specifically) a hunky festival but it sounds delicious! HNY to you, too!

Or I might be working on AI development. The recent discussions here have gotten me rather motivated.

That's a relief. I thought it might be short for "honey."

@atheist - no doubt! It's what I enjoy! ????
