if we had to design the stop sign from scratch...what would it look like? -- (link) - znufrii Jan 9, 12:41 [youtube]
I think he poked my brain. - Will Hunting Jan 9, 12:39 8
- you're ready to admit your wrong about LOTR? -- nm - crash davis Jan 9, 12:41 2
  - About the same point in time as you to admit you're wrong about Edgar in the Hall without a ticket. -- nm - Will Hunting Jan 9, 12:42 1
    - I hope you're feeling well enough to die many brutal deaths tonight. -- nm - crash davis Jan 9, 12:43

- Nasal sex gone awry. -- nm - TWuG Jan 9, 12:41
- did you suddenly remember your fourth birthday? -- nm - Reagen Jan 9, 12:40 1
  - The entire time, I had Brendan Fraser in the Mummy as my soundtrack. "Yeah, if we don't make it out of here, don't put me down for that." -- nm - Will Hunting Jan 9, 12:42
Overshare: I've been trying a new contact lens cleaner (a hydrogen peroxide solution), and apparently the solution didn't neutralize last night - musubi, on a logic rampage Jan 9, 12:39 6
- you're supposed to use that special container with the metal thing on the bottom, thats a catalyst to nuetralize the peroxide - zeitgeist Jan 9, 12:42 1
  - Criminy, you folks must think I'm a f***ing moron. I did use the special case, the solution still didn't neutralize. - musubi, on a logic rampage Jan 9, 12:44
- because you're putting hydrogen peroxide in your eyes! -- nm - Reagen Jan 9, 12:40 3
  - Only 3%! - musubi, on a logic rampage Jan 9, 12:41 2
    - you're not acutally wearing the lens, are you? take it out, fool. then soak your lenses in plain water. -- nm - loosilu Jan 9, 12:41 1
      - Of course I am. That solution isn't cheap, I'm not wasting it. - musubi, on a logic rampage Jan 9, 12:43
Have we done the weekend plans poll yet? I'm having the boss and his wife over for dinner tomorrow. Looking forward to it. -- nm - mara Jan 9, 12:38 1
- clean. visit Freer Gallery. maybe go to a high school play. -- nm - loosilu Jan 9, 12:41
ST poll: Is it really a poll? What are your weekend plans? - CQ Jan 9, 12:38 3
- sleeping and cleaning. -- nm - JaxSean Jan 9, 12:42
- Huh. -- nm - mara Jan 9, 12:38 1
  - wow, that's exciting! -- nm - CQ Jan 9, 12:40
[deleted] 7
- seems like a slightly tongue-in-cheek PR exercise. if it means a few less people eat them, more power to 'em. -- nm - kare Jan 9, 12:42
- Honestly, given the choice between PETA and Peta Wilson for "who is more freaking nuts" ... - Beryllium Jan 9, 12:40
- they're such a sad organization. -- nm - CQ Jan 9, 12:39
- I already eat one kitty that tastes like tuna, I got no problem eating more. -- nm - TWuG Jan 9, 12:38

Argh. I'm interested in a TV, most reviews look good except for 1: Consumer Report, which I don't have access to... -- nm - Guigue Jan 9, 12:36
I'm guessing that the Last House on the Left remake will be an Iraq War allegory. (spoilerish) - Dano Jan 9, 12:36
I just played "Who the Tudor are you?" Fate wasn't kind. I was a monk. -- (link) - crash davis Jan 9, 12:35 7
- I'm an actor. -- nm - Dano Jan 9, 12:39
- Bishop. -- nm - Diva Jan 9, 12:38
- I'm a Queen! -- nm - loosilu Jan 9, 12:38 4
  - oh wait. ha ha. I didn't wait for the animation. I'm an Actress. that's horrible. -- nm - loosilu Jan 9, 12:38 3
    - its okay, Queens sometimes suffered a certain type of neck injury -- nm - crash davis Jan 9, 12:41 2
      - According to the writeup, Actress is a euphemism for prostitute, so I have syphilis and I'm already dead. -- nm - loosilu Jan 9, 12:42 1
        
        I'm laughing with you, not at you -- nm - crash davis Jan 9, 12:44
and he ends by quoting Tennyson and walking off the stage, no questions allowed. -- nm - CrankYanker Jan 9, 12:35
loosi, here's a better example of the saffron burrows apples -- (link) - kare Jan 9, 12:29 17
- This is the stuff that happens when a witch doctor really wants to be an ass. - Will Hunting Jan 9, 12:41
- I honestly don't get why women do this to themselves. Saffron exuded sex appeal, she would have still been hot, just older. Now she looks like a freak - ceregon Jan 9, 12:34 3
  - oh come on. the way the press and the public talks about women? it's brutal. -- nm - loosilu Jan 9, 12:35 2
    - And they're the most brutal to women who screw themselves up with too much surgery. - Jim Jan 9, 12:37
    - I don't watch/read the stuff that comments about appearances that much (save ST), but is it better for somebody to say you look old or freaky. -- nm - ceregon Jan 9, 12:37
- I think the blogosphere calls those "chicken cutlets" now, and blames some Z-lister named Phoebe Price for being the trendsetter -- nm - Mr. Havens Jan 9, 12:33 4
  - huh. chicken cutlets are the pads that go in push up bras. -- nm - loosilu Jan 9, 12:33 3
    - Chicken cutlets means different things to different people. I've seen it used to describe small butt cheeks, huge face cheeks & padded bras - Mr. Havens Jan 9, 12:39
    - Indeed they are. But I think the shape is similar; maybe the term got hijacked. -- nm - Beryllium Jan 9, 12:35 1
      - gotcha. -- nm - loosilu Jan 9, 12:36
- what the crap are those, wood blocks? -- nm - loosilu Jan 9, 12:31 4
  - You could chalk a Raptor with those. -- nm - Mel Profit Jan 9, 12:33 3
    - *reads* *rereads* do you by any chance mean "chock"? -- nm - loosilu Jan 9, 12:34 2
      - My musubitis is flaring up. - Mel Profit Jan 9, 12:40
      - I hope so. Because I'm currently envisioning chalking a raptor like a pool cue. -- nm - TWuG Jan 9, 12:36
- This makes me t hink that The Middleman is real. Freaking Manicoids. -- nm - Beryllium Jan 9, 12:31
- Skeletor! -- nm - TWuG Jan 9, 12:30
oh god, those lips. They're going to pop and deflate! -- nm - Beryllium Jan 9, 12:28 3
- She used to be so cute. She looks like a sideshow freak now. -- nm - Diva Jan 9, 12:30 1
  - imagine what Megan Fox will look like in 15 years. -- nm - loosilu Jan 9, 12:33
- They have *SEAMS* for crying out loud! SEAMS! -- nm - TWuG Jan 9, 12:29
Blagoyavich speaking - wow , this guy is such a tool. -- nm - CrankYanker Jan 9, 12:26
At Muvico 16 in Estero, FL. There is a large crowd exiting the 1:15 Gran Torino -- nm - ty97 Jan 9, 12:25 2
- Rush of the elderly! Dive out of their path, ty! -- nm - Inigo Jan 9, 12:27 1
  - Seriously. I think one ore them even said "I love that whippersnapper Clint" -- nm - ty97 Jan 9, 12:38
In a few short weeks, Cantor will give us a preview of the beta of their possible movie futures market! -- nm - Inigo Jan 9, 12:25 14
- and they won't let me effing log in! -- nm - Reagen Jan 9, 12:33 2
  - Because you're Canadian, or did they screw something else up? -- nm - Inigo Jan 9, 12:36 1
    - they gave me a login, but it won't work. -- nm - Reagen Jan 9, 12:39
- Do Not Want. -- nm - Diva Jan 9, 12:31 7
  - Really, why? I would think it would be a good moneymaker for you. -- nm - Inigo Jan 9, 12:32 6
    - It seems like too much of an investment for me personally. The price per share for most movies will take it out of my price range. -- nm - Dano Jan 9, 12:38 1
      - We've already convinced them to bring in $30 million films to the market in the fall. - Inigo Jan 9, 12:42
    - I don't trust the rollout. -- nm - Diva Jan 9, 12:33 3
      - I see no harm in participating in the beta since no real money will be involved. -- nm - Inigo Jan 9, 12:38 1
        
        When I said "Do Not Want" I was referring to the actual rollout (whenever that's going to happen). -- nm - Diva Jan 9, 12:40
      - I wouldn't trust the company. HSX Orange was bush-league stuff. I'd hate to see them go bush on something involving real money. -- nm - Beryllium Jan 9, 12:37
- just in time for my birthday money -- nm - pigby Jan 9, 12:28
- Odds on Orange being in the color scheme? -- nm - TWuG Jan 9, 12:26 1
  - And glitter! -- nm - lileve Jan 9, 12:33
I had way too many beers last night. Also, bar dice is way too much fun. -- nm - CQ Jan 9, 12:25 1
- had an eye appointment this morn and the Dr asked if my contacts were bothering me because my eyes were bloodshot - decline Jan 9, 12:27
but wait...people now done with Horror - are we still watching the 80's remakes? Friday 13th and My Bloody Valentine? - Epiphany Jan 9, 12:23 12
- It's always been my theory that Hollywood should only remake the bad films in an attempt to make them better - Mr. Havens Jan 9, 12:34 1
  - The Incredible Mr Limpet! -- nm - TWuG Jan 9, 12:37
- Not if they screw up the core of Friday the 13th by (possible spoiler) - Jim Jan 9, 12:32
- nope. - Mel Profit Jan 9, 12:26 4
  - it's brutal but different - did you ever see Beloved? that scared the crap out of me - Epiphany Jan 9, 12:27 3
    - Freaky. -- nm - Diva Jan 9, 12:31
    - I don't think I saw Beloved but I think I wanted to see it. -- nm - Mel Profit Jan 9, 12:31
    - is that the Oprah movie? -- nm - Beryllium Jan 9, 12:29
- I think no for me. -- nm - Callisto Jan 9, 12:24
- And get Virginia Madsen back for Candyman. No reason not to, she's even hotter now. -- nm - TFox Jan 9, 12:24 1

    - [deleted]
- what's your current rate? -- nm - loosilu Jan 9, 12:23
I ran a free registry scan (courtesy of Trend Micro) that found 1015 registry errors on my computer. Now I can purchase Registry Booster to repair - HdnAgnda Jan 9, 12:22 2
- Use CCleaner. It does registry fixes. -- nm - Reagen Jan 9, 12:23 1
  - Thanks. I think I'l try this. -- nm - HdnAgnda Jan 9, 12:27

  - the bergman film is "the virgin spring". it's based on a swedish medieval rape 'n revenge legend....nm - x Jan 9, 12:23 6
