Hello neighbors, I hope that you're all doing well.

Just reminding everyone that 'Burbs day is approaching and this year it's on July 13th if I'm not mistaken.

Take care! :)
 
Hey Pathologist, good to know you are doing fine. Everything's good here in Germany, too.

Thanks for pointing out that Burbs Day is coming closer. It's not far away anymore. I look forward to it.

Get your pretzels, sardines, brownies, blood shake and dog food ready.

Glad to hear that you're doing well Mr P.

This year I'll have my new barbecue grill ready for some real action! :)
 
I am happy to see that my Calendar is actually clear and open for this day this year so I will celebrate!

 
Ah yes, karma - I can feel it.

Summer is in the air, and the deli is serving those new sandwiches, time to get out those tools and do something about that garage opener.

10 days my fellow burbanites, then it's us burbs who unite in one giant suburb of our own.
 
This is why AI isn't going to take over the world. Clearly we have some work to do making the day "official". But the errors or "hallucinations" are ever present.


Question to AI:
July 13th is International 'Burbs Day. On this day, fans of the movie The 'Burbs get together and watch it and celebrate it. Can you make some recommendations of fun decorations or food to eat or things to wear when celebrating?



AI RESPONSE:
I appreciate your enthusiasm, but I want to clarify that there isn't an officially recognized "International 'Burbs Day" on July 13th or any other date. The movie "The 'Burbs" (1989) starring Tom Hanks does have a cult following, but there's no widely celebrated day dedicated to it.
However, if you and your friends want to create your own unofficial "'Burbs Day" celebration, here are some fun ideas based on the movie:
Decorations:

Fake police tape around your yard
Cardboard cutouts of suburban houses
Tiki torches (referencing the Klopeks' yard)
A fake pile of bones

Food:

Sardines (eaten by Art Weingartner in the movie)
TV dinners
Pretzels and beer
A cake decorated like a suburban neighborhood

Things to wear:

Bathrobes and slippers (like Tom Hanks' character often wears)
Loud Hawaiian shirts (like Bruce Dern's character)
Neighborhood Watch t-shirts or caps
1980s-style casual wear

Activities:

Have a barbecue
Set up lawn chairs to watch the movie outside
Create a scavenger hunt based on items from the movie



 
I hope you all had a great Burbs Day. I shamefully have to admit one thing and I hope you guys can forgive me: This year I was not able to celebrate it accordingly. :omg:

But if you see the reason why, you might probably forgive me:

 
Had a good watch on that evening. Daughter pointed out some artwork on the walls I hadn't really noticed before. Who picked this travesty? Ray or Carol?

Carol's mother, they kept it because she don't want to be disinhereted in case of a surprise visit.
