That is all for our Important Dates! Now, for our next sector (and our personal favorite):

OUR LMWAY!

(Last Month We Asked You)

Last Month We Asked You: Fill in the blank: April ___ brings May ____.

Here are your adjective answers!

Rogue Wilding said: April’s Cricket magazine brings May excitement.

Soren Infinity Said: April breezes bring May trees(es).

Summer, our little ball of sunshine, said: April flash floods bring May peril.  

NatureWriter said: April edition of Cricket brings May peril for having only two magazines in four months.

And Finally, Spiffycat said: April pugs bring May...uh...me?

That’s it for our LMWAY! Now, grab your translator book, because our next section is…

FUNNY CAPTCHA QUOTES!

Firstly, Spiffycats CAPTCHA (Hiya fren!) Empyreal said “acmg” when accused of having a horcrux. Well, ask Soren for a virtual car, because that sounds like “Acmage”, and in Toronto, Mississippi, there is Acmage Photo + Videography! I think a horcrux is there!

NatureWriter’s little guy Yxex says “Fewt”. That is either few or Feet, and we at Floof assume both, so Yxex has few feet!

And last but absolutely not least, here’s a conversation me and my CAPTCHAs had over on the diagon alley thread.

I was in STEM class, going on Cricket and typing this out, and I look at the CAPTCHA and WHAT DID YOU SAY TED?!

wife

I THINK TED GOT MArrIED

FRANK ARE YOU MARRIED TO TED

kdbg

YOU HAVE A BIG CHILD?! WHAT HAPPENS WHEN I AM IN PREALGEBRA?!

nhgu

I WASN'T GOING TO GIVE YOU A HUG

We will talk about this later.

GO TO YOUR ROOMS!

Well, that sure was fun! Now, for our next section, get ready to rumble with laughter, because it's:

May-day!

Which state loves May the most?

May-ne!

What season is it when you are on a trampoline in May?

Why are months so bad at making decisions?

What’s a pirate’s favorite holiday?

What’s the best advice a month can give you?

May-ke the most of your life!

What’s a months’ dream job?

And finally, what did the month say when he proposed?

Will you May-rry me?

Great jokes, don’t you think? Anyway, now it’s time for our Month-related advice bit! May’s subject is...

TIPS FOR A GREAT MOTHERS DAY!

Mother’s Day: Make sure your mom is in a good mood, and try not to make her upset. I usually make her breakfast in bed.

(Submitted by Summer)

Now, Soren's guide to Mother's Day:

1. Make a homemade card with a cute picture on the front and a super sweet, loveable saying to finish it off. Don't forget to be sincere!

2. Make her coffee and ask what sweeteners she'd like. Use her favorite mug.

3. Make sure Dad got flowers.

4. Wrap up her gift with wrappings of her favorite color.

5. Take care of your chores without complaint. Let her relax.

Here are Gracia's Super Amazing And Somewhat Helpful (at least I hope) Mother's Day Tips!!

~Breakfast in bed is a must. If you have younger siblings, then get them to carry it in with you because of their Cuteness Appeal.

~Try and do Mother's Day gifts after breakfast. Your mom will be so happy by then that she'll be ready to... like... explode with... uh... HAPPYNESS YES HAPPYNESS

~Homemade cards. And possibly homemade gifts. Your mom will be like "AHHH YESS YES THIS IS THE BEST POTHOLDER I HAVE EVER RECEIVED IN ALL MY YEARS" if you just take a white pot holder and write a message with fabric markers, she'll be SO HAPPY.

~Lastly, don't forget that this is a day for your mom and she calls the shots! Even if what she wants to do doesn't sound like a ton of fun, keep in mind that your mom does so much for you, and you should give her what she wants!

Great advice from all! And now, our last piece of the month, from a brand-new member, andour existential ponderment clerk, CBers and AEs, it is now time for...

CBer AWARDS WITH SOREN!

Alright Soren, take it away!

Creativity award- Up Top!, the creator of the top SI!

This original idea was fairly genius!  The Chatterboxers are inventing new games all the time- it appears you’ve made a new kind of SI for us to enjoy!  Thank you for keeping things fun and new in the CB.

Helpfulness award- Hazel C., creator of the Kyngdom guide!

I don’t think I’m the only one to poke their head into Kyngdom, read the Story So Far, then get nervous about how much there is to know and leave. Hazel, you’ve compiled everything someone would need to know to finally have the confidence to really join Kyngdom! You spent so much time and effort to make people feel more comfortable about going to Kyngdom. Thank you!

Friendliness award- Agent Winter, giver of the guide!

Whenever someone new comes here, you immediately swoop in, give them a friendly welcome, and easy access to the Ultimate Guide. You make sure everyone feels welcome and secure when they join the CB! You’re alway willing to lend a hand. Thank you for your friendliness and kindness!

Most Hard-Working award- Ella Starburst, head of Floof Industries and stand-in Easter Bunny! (note from Ella: hjjhfdjhgah3duhdbwyfndafis thanks you!)

Ella, you’ve worked so hard giving us CBers a fun Easter game(speaking of which,winners later!) and a way to feel confident going into another month! You bring so much to our community with your fun ideas and bubbly personality.(Give Andy and Zeke thanks for that one.)  I can’t imagine how much time you put into these awesome things you bring to us! (A LOT of time, and sometimes it leads to me having WAY too much homework, hence my long and unannounced hiatus. I’m back tho!) Thank you for sharing your creativity with us.

(P.S you really do deserve an award for all the awesome stuff you do!)

(and if THAT wasn’t enough, SUMMER did THIS HECK)

Oh, I didn’t realize you could submit awards! In that case, I would like to nominate... ELLA STARBURST for the Creativity Award!

Reasons: you help run Floof Industries, you put weirdly awesome stuff in forms you fill out (funny non sequiturs) and you’re just all-around hilarious!

(THANK YOU GUYS SO MUCH! Honestly, I’m just really happy you guys like this so much. I originally just created it because I was bored in February, but then it turned into tHIS mess of creativity run by a twelve-year-old. Thank you guys so much for all of this love, and you are all AWESOME!)

AND NOW THE MOMENT YOU HAVE ALL BEEN NOT WAITING FOR

The winner of this year’s FIRST ANNUAL CRICKET EASTER EGG HUNT IS…

EVERYBODY!

What?

I know, I know, I know, It kinda sorta doesn’t count as a win on my part, but really I owe it to you.

I completely forgot about where I hid the eggs, I extended the egg hunt despite knowing I couldn’t handle it, I made a promise I couldn’t keep, and I’m so sorry!

I-sorry- WE learned some valuable lessons about egg hunts on threads: keep track of things! So, to make amends for our mistakes…

Anyone who participated in the Egg hunt, or even COMMENTED on an egg, gets the first place prize!

What was it again?

*looks it up*

Oh.

OH MY.

I HAVE TO DRAW FOR ALL OF YOU GUYS.

HECK.

YOU GUYS WILL FINALLY GET TO SEE MY TRASH ART.

YES I DO DRAW.

BUT IT IS TRASH.

AND I GOTTA COLOR IT.

Hold on, Ima change this a bit…

The poetry will be done by the beginning of June, the writing prompt will happen by then too (hopefully) and the drawing will be by then too. However, it will not be colored, because HOMEWORK. Gosh, I totally forgot about that. Anyway, that’s it for the awards.

AGAIN, THANK YOU SO MUCH, AND HAVE AN AWESOME DAY!

That is all for this Month’s monthly check-Up! Now for our LMWAY:

Create your own candy parade! Go as detailed or as vague as you like!  Just make sure you put what they’re throwing instead of candy, and who is marching!

Leave your answers in the comments below, And we’ll put them in when it’s Monthly check-up time!

Thank you all for waiting for this and an extra big thank-you to our contributors! Remember to put June  themed things in the comments!

Here is what we’ll accept:

Important dates

June jokes

Tips for a great FATHERS’ day! (not creative, we know, but we can’t leave the men out!)

IN ADDITION

We are adding a new wing to the MCU!
It’s called:

LOCATION OF THE MONTH!

Every month, you guys submit a new month-themed or not location for Ella Starburst!(Floof industries will always be Ladybug lane.) The winner’s pick will be my location for the WHOLE MONTH!

YOU GOT IT RIGHT!

Until next time, have a great life, friends.

Sincerely,

Floof Indust-

WAIT!
Yes, we are STILL holding open slots for being a member here!

Your job as a Floof Industries employee will be to collect info. Important dates, jokes, all that good stuff. You can do it from all sources: friends, books, websites, anywho, just make sure if you use a website or book, you include that source. Your quota is at least three things in your category; if this is not met by the date of the next MCU, you will be fired. You can be re-hired tho.

The profit of joining Floof will be helping a twelve-year-old girl finish assignments on time, getting to tell other people you have a job,always getting your stuff into the MCU, A cool Floof-brand nickname that can serve as your location( if you have none), twenty pinecones,a chance to add and take away new parts of the Floof Industries, and a weird thing Ted found in the ground!

Reminder that even if you don’t work at Floof, you can still submit! This is just to help improve efficiency and decrease the work we have to do!! I hope you all have a fantastic day, and we at Floof hope that your May won’t become a May-Day!
