Got my Fuku back today.
16Today was weird, indeed. On top of getting the satellite receiver from a “mystery" person today, I got something else from @Mehrocco_Mole. The label says it’s for “Gal Maegi” which makes me think my first name is Gal. Okay, you can call me Gal.
For those of you who haven’t followed the Fuku thread, this should help explaining it.
I was working from downtown office today and didn’t have any tools to open it. So, @rkaye helped me open it with a butter knife.
And there was- my ripped up fuku note sent back to me in a small frame. On top of that, I got a giant post-it note pad the size of floor tile.
Aw, thanks @Mehrocco_Mole. I’ll be sure to show off my mad writing skills, sign it and send it back to you. Stay tuned!

I bet they licked it a little.
@Ashkitty Possible.
Every time I read this title, I think of this
USPS wanted a first and last name to print the label online. The L and the M in @galmaegi looked like a good place as any to separate things.
@Mehrocco_Mole Yup, I'd do the same thing. - gal.
@Mehrocco_Mole you mean
g almaegi
ga lmaegi
galm aegi
galma egi
galmae gi
galmaeg i
Didn't sound right?
Or there's always Galmaegi Meh
The worst (And possibly the best) would probably be "Mediocre @Galmaegi"
I kind of like the GI separate... Sounds like old timey war vet... (I don't hear GI used as much presently.)
@Mehrocco_Mole you basically just Irked her name
although maybe he would have gone with gal Mae Gi
@Lotsofgoats If Irk is smart enough. :)
@sohmageek So I thought I'd be a smart ass and translate Gal Maegi to show I knew what I was doing. Epic fail. Probably the weirdest (and the epic fail) translation was Bengali: Gal Maegi translated to Cheek Prostitute
I also did some of the @sohmageek 's suggestions. The best one was again Bengali: Galmae Gi turns into Guy Galame.
I think I'll stick with Gal. In English.
@Mehrocco_Mole Nooooo! Try 갈매기.
@Mehrocco_Mole what are you saying about cheeks? Oh that could be a bad hr issue (is it really sexual harassment if it's your name? I think it can be) and a fun name.
@galmaegi Gull?
@galmaegi
(As a side note for anyone interested- Yay for Now on Tap, the ability to take a screenshot through Now on Tap, and the ability in Marshmallow to translate anything with Google Translate without opening Translate)
@FroodyFrog @Mehrocco_Mole Yep, that's it. Seagull.
@galmaegi spotted.
@hollboll @Galmaegi
@galmaegi seen on a different day:
@FroodyFrog Octopus... how rude.
@galmaegi, we might need to have a talk.
@hollboll Huh? What's up?
@galmaegi
@galmaegi
You don't like octopi?
What about this octopussy(cat) ?
@FroodyFrog I like eating octopi.
@galmaegi
So in other words, you don't like the fact that the octopus changed the status quo and ate a seagull instead of it being the other way around? Because I just got an idea, although I don't know anyone who'd sell me a live octopus and then send it to where I want...
@FroodyFrog Does that mean I can expect a live octopus in the mail once you figure it out? :D
@galmaegi Watch what you wish for.

@galmaegi
That depends, would it end up becoming someone's lunch?
@sammydog01
@FroodyFrog Clicked the link @sammydog01 posted and lost my appetite.
@galmaegi
I'll keep that in mind.
@hollboll A bird stole my cinnamon roll in the Magic Kingdom on my first ever trip to Disney World. Kind of traumatic for a 9-year-old; took it right out of my hand!
@jqubed Oh no! That's so sad! :(
@hollboll @jqubed
Not for the bird.
@hollboll And have you ever had those cinnamon rolls? THEY'RE AMAZING.
@jqubed that's how they get ya :) trained birds.

Boy is this thread ever going in freaky weird directions.
@Mehrocco_Mole
¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Was that a descendent of the Elephant Man opening that box for the “purdy lady”? Sheesh, look at the size of those mitts!
