How bizzare is this? I've been working on a Twitter account for the band my wife is a member of. In the "Who to follow" box on that account is a guy - oblique May 17, 11:31 4
- Cookies would be my guess. -- nm - David May 17, 11:38 1
  - Maybe but I'm running in an "InPrivate" browsing window. Shouldn't be any cookie overlap -- nm - oblique May 17, 11:50
- Twitter and FB scare me at times with that stuff -- nm - ty97 May 17, 11:32 1

SITMOP - Sorry European teenagers, you'll have to get your first job elsewhere - McDonalds to replace cashiers with touch screens. -- (link) - Andie May 17, 11:23 3
- If they're hired to constantly disinfect the screens, that would be good. -- nm - Max May 17, 11:25
- Touch screens can't flip those burgers! -- nm - Spawn May 17, 11:24
- I've used these at one or two busy European McDonald's before...they were optional but totally cut the ridiculous line for you. -- nm - ty97 May 17, 11:24

survivor ... - Beryllium May 17, 11:13 33
- Here's the thing... (spoilers?) - Mop (208 lbs) May 17, 11:40 1
  - this reminds me to re-ask something. (spoiler includes winner of this season) - b. May 17, 11:49
- That was my position before this Survivor (spoils) - Stephen May 17, 11:31
- FWIW, I didn't say he was the best ever. I said he was the most talented. - David May 17, 11:29
- You play, to win, the game. It is one thing if you are great player on a not-so-great team. He is not. -- nm - Spawn May 17, 11:18 15
  - The more apt comparison would be to look at it like the pga tour. There's only one winner of each tournament, but the rankings are based on combined - pmb May 17, 11:34 12
    - Then why can't more players compete in 4 seasons like him? - Spawn May 17, 11:47 1
      - some don't want to. - groiny May 17, 11:48
    - Consistent high finishes....he's got less than Sandra & Parvati - Will Hunting May 17, 11:35 9
      - Those are the only three players with a win and a second place finish or better. - David May 17, 11:37 8
        
        Honestly, he's good, but after this round, it was the most inept group I've ever seen heard play the game - Will Hunting May 17, 11:39 7
        
        Steve, David and Mike were all fine players. It wasn't a bad season of talent. -- nm - David May 17, 11:40 6
        
        there were some real bad players though. - groiny May 17, 11:41 5
        
        There always are. That's what drives me crazy about the casting. -- nm - David May 17, 11:43 4
        
        they must know that they put 2-3 lunatics on every season. - groiny May 17, 11:44 3
        
        I think Ralph making the jury had to shock everyone involved. -- nm - David May 17, 11:46 2
        
        that poor illiterate Hillbilly -- nm - Beaker May 17, 11:50 1
        
        well, he did manage to get an immunity idol though, no? nm -- nm - groiny May 17, 11:51
  - Last time he was a great player on a really good team, with one really bad player. - the wrong element, bad guy May 17, 11:29
  - but the problem is, there are four teams in this game - "you", the other people at Final, the jury, and the ratings. - Beryllium May 17, 11:27
- It's a little like judging a QB or pitcher on their Win Loss record. - Jim May 17, 11:15 12
  - See above. He *is* the team. The W or the L is his, and his alone. -- nm - Spawn May 17, 11:18 10
    - In a game with 18 players, it's mathematically improbable to win at all. - David May 17, 11:30 1
      - When you're given the option of Tiger vs. the field, always pick the field. -- nm - nubby May 17, 11:32
    - I know what you're up to, by the way! But I'll bite...the 2nd time around, he played the best game and earned the win. - Jim May 17, 11:20 7
      - still probably the most bitter jury in the history of the show. He *dominated* the first all-stars. -- nm - Jovian May 17, 11:22 1
        
        See below. -- nm - Spawn May 17, 11:22
      - So what you are saying is, his offense was solid but his defense was weak? - Spawn May 17, 11:21 4
        
        No, I'm saying that the game is flawed!!! nm - Russell Hantz May 17, 11:23
        
        nah dude, he got totally and completely ripped off. -- nm - Jovian May 17, 11:22 2
        
        I watched All Stars. - Spawn May 17, 11:23 1
        
        nah, he f**cking robbed. Because Lex and Tom were little f**king bitches. -- nm - Jovian May 17, 11:29
  - Let's not go crazy here.... -- nm - Mazzaro, who didn't lose last night May 17, 11:16

Gut shmut, I went with my sketched out plan and 1 for 1, it was worth it. -- nm - Ghostly Will Hunting May 17, 11:06 1
- And now the silence stuff will killllll me. - Will Hunting May 17, 11:20
dudes, i know nothing about this game and even i think _ _ _ _ _ _ is a fox. -- nm - Andie May 17, 11:01 15
- He was dead when I got there I swear! -- nm - The Fantastic Mr. Max May 17, 11:10 3
  - I was wondering why no one had made a FMF joke yet. -- nm - nubby May 17, 11:14 2
    - "Mrs. Peacock, in the coop, with a whackbat." -- nm - Max May 17, 11:15
    - Because nobody saw the movie. -- nm - Spawn May 17, 11:14
- thanks, I bet its my bell bottoms, platform shoes, and silk shirts that got you -- nm - crash davis May 17, 11:06
- TFox. - musubi May 17, 11:06 5
  - Did nubby assign roles at random? If not, I wouldn't be surprised if he made TFox a fox for the fun of it. :-) -- nm - mara May 17, 11:08 4
    - He said that he did, and I'm accepting him at his word on that. -- nm - Name Withheld By Request May 17, 11:11 3
      - I thought that's what he said, and I agree, we have to believe him. -- nm - mara May 17, 11:14 2
        
        Randomness, of course, doesn't *rule out* TFox. :) (nm) - musubi May 17, 11:18 1
        
        nubby is a scientist. - Spawn May 17, 11:22
- Nonplayers are allowed to share their reasoning. :-) -- nm - mara May 17, 11:03
- Hangman? I'll guess... X. -- nm - nubby May 17, 11:02 1
  - *draws a head* -- nm - Andie May 17, 11:06
- *ding* -- nm - Spawn May 17, 11:02
Some pics from Slave Lake Alberta. It does indeed look like a warzone -- (link) - Beaker May 17, 11:00 1

sitwap: Lisa Edlestein NOT returning for final season of House.... -- (link) - Remlik May 17, 10:59 7
- I actually didn't return to this season of House in part due to how they ruined her character. -- nm - Qale May 17, 11:02
- Final season? Wow. -- nm - Spawn May 17, 11:00 5
  - she's either A. playing hardball to get one final fat contract or B. she's stupid. -- nm - Remlik May 17, 11:02 4
    - C: she is pissing me off -- nm - crash davis May 17, 11:06
    - I meant there being a final season. -- nm - Spawn May 17, 11:02 2
      - I think Hugh Laurie decided he was done -- nm - crash davis May 17, 11:04 1

    - I also wouldn't mind getting JackDawson's digits... -- nm - con_carne May 17, 11:14 3
      - I still have everyone in my cell from Vegas one and Vegas last. -- nm - Spawn May 17, 11:15 2
        
        I am not giving you credit for this - con_carne May 17, 11:22
        
        Same here. -- nm - Will Hunting May 17, 11:20
arnie baby talk makes me think that he only did one (Twins?) love scene in his movie career. That's kind of funny to me. -- nm - Max May 17, 10:58 12
- he's one other love scene...The Witch in Conan! -- nm - Remlik May 17, 11:00
- i think the main reason for that is, imaging a 'romantic' Arnie just stretches the imagination too far. - Andie May 17, 10:59 8
  - "Let's have sex, and all this." -- nm - nubby May 17, 11:03 6
    - with the bending and the thrusting and the oh my god and this and that. -- nm - Max May 17, 11:05 5
      - *spit take* (nm) - musubi May 17, 11:06 3
        
        Musubi -- (link) - con_carne May 17, 11:10 [Backboard] 2
        
        Mahalo for the invite, but I do have my no-IRL-meetups-rule. - musubi May 17, 11:16 1
        
        Aw. And thanks! -- nm - con_carne May 17, 11:23
      - it's "ach mein gott" -- nm - Danedukenuuk May 17, 11:06
  - which made me imagine the housekeeper kind of unenthusiastic. "well... fine, we can have sex." -- nm - Max May 17, 11:02
- Total Recall"? - Danedukenuuk May 17, 10:58 1
  - oh, that's true. -- nm - Max May 17, 10:59

SITWAP: Boo, Cougar Town will not be on ABCs fall schedule. it will be mid season following DWTS. - MDH May 17, 10:53 2

Hot or Not/FMK: Chris Hemsworth as Thor, Chris Evans as Capt. America, Ryan Reynolds as Green Lantern -- nm - Max May 17, 10:52 14
- Not at all. Not as much as usual. Hot. -- nm - MDH May 17, 11:05
- NOT. Less than normal but still hot. Over him. -- nm - ty97 May 17, 11:02
- Meh, Meh, Hot. None of them are tripping all the buttons at the same time. - Epiphany May 17, 10:58 8
  - Dude... - nubby May 17, 11:04 1
    - "...(seven)." -- nm - Monica May 17, 11:06
  - Hemsworth? Seriously not? Wow. -- nm - Spawn May 17, 11:01 5
    - Normally, yes. In Thor, I hate the long hair and he was kinda too jacked. -- nm - ty97 May 17, 11:13 4
      - I thought he pulled it off rather well. -- nm - Spawn May 17, 11:14 3
        
        He probably looked the part.....I'm just not attracted to that look. -- nm - ty97 May 17, 11:14 2
        
        No, I meant the look. Neither am I, but I thought he actually looked good. -- nm - Spawn May 17, 11:16 1
        
        Gotcha. Just not my type, that look. -- nm - ty97 May 17, 11:22
- Hot. Not. Not. I'm much perfering Ryan Gosling in the Crazy Stupid Love commercials. -- nm - Qale May 17, 10:53 2
  - This is my answer. -- nm - Kim Pine May 17, 11:21
  - And on a similarly themed note: Alexander Skarsgård is looking mighty short hair Kid Rock in Straw Dogs what the hell! -- nm - Qale May 17, 10:54
