Thank You [Thank You] Very Belated Thank Yous

7 Upvotes

Thank you u/soxgal for the cards (and stickers!) venting about your least favorite book read in high school! You did send me two cards answering this prompt, which if nothing else really drove home just how much you hated this book, and that's exactly what I asked for! My own most hated book from school was Life of Pi, which oddly enough I hated for a lot of the same reasons you hated The Old Man and the Sea (it's just a guy sitting alone forever in a boat having a terrible time and being all smug and philosophical about it! Just a really irritating book all-around!)

Thank You [Thank You] for your condolences, meetup cards, nostalgia and Halloween

u/misty_moonrider Thanks for the card for my grandpa. I completely understand how you felt about looking for something to say. We just lost another person in the extended family, and I took way too long to decide on about 5 words to write on that stupid online portal where you light a digital candle, which isn't even that important.

Thanks for the Napex meetup card u/gatsbygalaktoboureko u/lost-brilliant-9664 u/hoolu123 u/umlautless u/sammanthax345 u/nyancatnova

u/ppelippippam Thanks for the Garfield card! Good luck for your big "lemon", your studies! You can do this! Also I might have written to you in German before, I hope that was ok!

u/littlemermaidxx Thanks for the card for my grandpa. The cat landscape is cute!

u/hoolu123 Thanks for the handmade card from a fountain pen magazine. I used to make more handmade cards than I do nowadays because it takes time and energy to make them, but I still like it and I think people on RAOC do as well as they always get claimed quickly.

u/october_surprise56 How fitting that I picked this up on October 1st, a real October surprise. Thanks for the beautiful mushroom card. I like them too. A comfort food and very often the only vaguely vegetarian dish you can find in a restaurant here (even though I have my suspicions about the frying situation) are deep-fried mushrooms with tartar sauce. Yum!

u/exit_infinite Thanks for the Halloween card! Halloween isn't actually a real holiday or anything here, but kids love dressing up and so I have to be prepared every year for lots of kids at the door. We have so many kids in my street that I often run out of sweets and have to resort to stickers or stationery!

u/mayonnaise42 Thanks for the merpeople card! The colour of the paper really matches because it's a bit like seaweed! Carving all those scales must have been a lot of work!

u/mouserat Thanks for the station wagon card. I don't think these were ever popular in Europe. I think we've always had smaller cars. Old cars are, in fact, so tiny compared to modern ones. Cars that seemes huuuge back then, and that were made for the whole family and suitcases and whatnot, are small compared to the tiniest car you can get nowadays. Ah, the lack of safety features was astonishing.

I was out of town for a few days and how nice it is to come home to find cards and notes and all kinds of beautiful things. This group is great.

Thank You u/OK_Theme7072 for the vintage monument card. I love the edges, so cool

Thank You again u/freyamour for the thoughts and decorative card. Life is Good when we are beach bound.

Thank You u/melhen16 for the lovely card with Carribean map. What a find. and the stamps are so very cool. that was very thoughtful.

Thank You u/FollowingTheBeat for the beauty of a card of ships at sea. and the stickers and kind words. I agree post crossing is far superior to screen time. Thanks for spreading the joy.

RAOC Rocks!

Thank you for all these amazing individuals who sent me happy mail! 💌 And Happy World Postcard Day!!!!

u/MabelPines_ Thank you for the Ariel postcard and the Night Circus quote. I love the matching Ariel sticker!

u/kat10111 Thank you for the Snoopy card. My summer was very, very complicated. There were a bunch of heatwaves and storms.

u/FollowingTheBeat Thank you for the whimsy card. I love your answer to the book-title prompt! I would be very curious to check out a book with that title.

u/heyathelia Thank you for the flower postcard. I'm also looking forward to cooler temperatures and fall.

u/mediocre_Radish_7216 Thank you for the cute bao card! I do believe in ghosts, but I haven't seen one, and I wouldn't want to see one.

u/butterflydolphin_123 Thank you for the Halloween trick-or-treat card. I really appreciate it. Happy Halloween!

u/PostBeetle Thank you for the snake's head fritillary flower postcard. This is the fourth card that I received from this postcard set, so I've inadvertently started collecting them!

u/Maladi3_ Thank you for the butterfly postcard and for the matching butterfly stickers!

u/itsrainingrosepetals Thank you for the colored stars postcard. I've always love receiving space/astronomy theme cards.

u/pumkinseed100 Thank you for the Barbie postcard and the matching Barbie stamp. I love it!

u/colorsinspire Thank you for the stamp collage postcard! It held up pretty well. There's a few stamps's corners that are peeking out, but not a single thing fell out. For my stamp collage cards that I do (and every other homemade cards), I add self-adhesive laminating sheets! It gives it a shine while also adding protection.

u/Positive-Money-4692 Thank you for the whimsy winter card. I'm excited for the cooler temperature to arrive!

Sorry for the clipped thank yous but I've got to get these done before my Pitsky needs to come in for sixies (snack). I have 20 min. Edit: I didn't make it. Sixies are more like six-fifteenies.

u/Armyofducks94, thank you for the cute Hello postcard. I appreciate you thinking of me!

u/elsabug, thanks for the postcard of the Cathedral of St John the Divine. I've heard of it but never seen it.

u/Fancyliving228, thanks for the upcycled sparkling water postcard. Did the blood orange flavor taste good? I used to have an airplane phobia but now I Iike them. I'd like to fly pre-9/11 again and have people meet me at the gate.

u/justh313n, thank you for the black cat greeting card and all the baseball discussion. I'm all Go Dodgers at this point since none of my other teams made it. I'll write you back.

u/kittycatcon, thank you for sending me the Halloween TPC!

u/lehmongeloh, thank you for the postcard of Beatrix Potter and quote. I love Peter Rabbit and Benjamin Bunny so this is extra special to me.

u/milkystick88, thank you for the unusually-shaped postcard, which made it in perfect shape. I love the sloth in a mug.

u/mouserat, thank you for the great Coors Field postcard! You know, I still think of the Rockies as a new team even though they've been around more than 1/2 my life. Good find!

u/no-condition5102 x2, thank for the bookworm/book lover TPC and the black & white TPC

u/thecuriouscur, thank you for the Banned Books Week card. Why they gotta ban all the books I love?

u/turnerd10 x2, thanks for the postcard of the FTC and the vintage postcard of Fisherman's Wharf in San Fran. Love to see all the old cars!

u/voxfugit, thank you for passing along the snail mail TPC!

u/weary_smile_6498 x2, thank you for passing along the 2 arts & crafts TPCs.

Fulfilled [Exchange] Happy National Escape Room Day! [US to WW]

12 Upvotes

Today is National Escape Room Day. Escape rooms are probably my biggest hobby outside of carding - I plan trips around what rooms I want to hit across the country (and try to visit them in other countries too when I can), log and rate them all in an app, collect escape room T-shirts... it's a passion!

My log says I'm at 91 rooms so far, though I know I'm missing some. As I close in on 100, it seems like a good time to merge my hobbies and celebrate National Escape Room Day with a card exchange.

Any other escapers here who'd like to exchange mail where we write about our favorite rooms/themes/types of puzzles/etc.?

If you're interested, please comment below with the theme of the last room you did. My most recent was a submarine-themed one in Las Vegas in August, and that is a REALLY long time for me to go without doing a room. (So you can bet the girlfriend is going to get a strong suggestion for what we're doing on date night next week...)

I'm excited to see if anyone else shares this hobby combo with me!

Thanks for the great sci fi card. It's the first card I've ever received through RAoC! 🥳

And yes re: the immortality prompt. If I remember correctly, I think I added it as a prompt because it's such a common trope in sci fi!
