What we're doing? Well, I'm chilling, but Mike is working on a grammar module for ESL students (artcles and nouns, to be precise). Ashley's working on a presentation.
Mike: Did you guys know that cheese is a non-countable noun?
Me: Well, yeah. You can't count cheese. Unless you're talking about, like, different types of cheeses, then you can make a non-countable into a countable noun.
Mike: I don't know why, but it just never occurred to me... Cheese is a non-countable noun!
Ashley: Sorry, what's a non-countable noun?
Me: Basically stuff you can't count.
Mike: Yeah, non-countable nouns are things that're bigger than you... sadness... faith... cheese...
Probably one of those things you just had to be there for, I guess.
