- Mitch from Real Genius would have a better shot -- nm - moles Sep 19, 14:41
- Maybe it's just because I watched The Hangover last night, but ... I think he looks like an extremely dorky version of brad cooper. -- nm - Beryllium Sep 19, 14:41 1

The peachtree music fest is trying to be coy with their facebook ad. It mentions NOT to click on it, but to instead go to their site. Sneaky sneaky. -- nm - Qale Sep 19, 14:34
I am hoping balsamic vinegar does not have a shelf life, because I now officially own way too much of it. - kelly Sep 19, 14:32 4
- why? because it's so good! (have you tried fig? *so good*) -- nm - b. Sep 19, 14:45
- The Vinegar Institute conducted studies to find out and confirmed that vinegar�s shelf life is almost indefinite. -- (link) - CovingtonCat Sep 19, 14:43 2
  - well, what would you expect the Vinegar Institute to say? -- nm - moles Sep 19, 14:44 1
    - Pucker up? -- nm - CovingtonCat Sep 19, 14:45

Presumably, the Blockbuster announcement will involve the unveiling of unlimited streaming. If that's the case, Netflix is dead meat. -- nm - Mop (195 lbs) Sep 19, 14:21 6
- Well, once we get past the point that Blockbuster will still need to pay for content, just like Netflix... - Will Hunting Sep 19, 14:23 2
  - So far, Blockbuster has managed to dodge the release window restrictions. -- nm - Mop (195 lbs) Sep 19, 14:24 1
    - The studio will do their usual thing. Favor the small player until it get bigger/fails miserably then impose the same restrictions - Guigue Sep 19, 14:26
- [deleted] 2
  - dead *meat*. -- nm - Mop (195 lbs) Sep 19, 14:23 1

Man, those were good boards to miss. I've been doing that a lot lately. Apparently things go to shit when I'm in class. -- nm - Reagen Sep 19, 14:19 6
- No, I'm taking credit. - Mel Profit Sep 19, 14:24 1
  - I wasn't around for any of that, but even if I had been, I would have just put my thread-blinders on. - Kim Pine Sep 19, 14:27

  - something something pedagogy, something something didactic. -- nm - Reagen Sep 19, 14:20

Is it possible that we have our dvr accidentally taping repeats of it's always sunny but not new eps? -- nm - kelly Sep 19, 14:15 4
- yes. especially if the episode info has no date for it's first, or any other airing. mine records extra shows all the time because of this -- nm - peglegpete Sep 19, 14:22 1
  - In this case, we are intentionally taping the repeats. -- nm - kelly Sep 19, 14:30
- Mine didn't grab the new Sunny either. I would blame FX before your DVR. -- nm - Dr.Johnny Vermin Sep 19, 14:18 1
  - Hmm, okay. - kelly Sep 19, 14:22
ST Pop Quiz -- What is President Harry S Truman's full name? -- nm - znufrii Sep 19, 14:13 6

Number of children under five killed by malnourishment every year: 2 million. The number of overweight children under 5: 43 million. - mara Sep 19, 14:03 7
- What about overweight *and* malnourished? - Dr.Johnny Vermin Sep 19, 14:12 3
  - I think the overall message is that the foods that lead to overweightness tend to be poor nourishment ... -- nm - Beryllium Sep 19, 14:42 2
    - (Stemming mostly from the fact that the fast food and comfort food industries position themselves as being an affordable choice ...) -- nm - Beryllium Sep 19, 14:43 1
      - (... except for the $5/cupcake companies. What the fudge?!) -- nm - Beryllium Sep 19, 14:43
- Solution: eat fat children. -- nm - Mop (195 lbs) Sep 19, 14:05 2
  - you're alwys too radical. Clearly we need to take only 1/20th of each fat child. Sustainability is crucial. -- nm - Reagen Sep 19, 14:08
  - Right? Could anything be more obvious? -- nm - mara Sep 19, 14:06

- What do we figure, Foster out 4-6 weeks? -- nm - Chest Rockwell Sep 19, 14:00 1
  - That depends on how well Tate does. If he performs, they don't have to rush Foster back. If he sucks the next two games, they'll cajole Foster more. -- nm - David, Archer fan Sep 19, 14:02
What's so bad is I really really liked when I had Netflix DVD by mail. They have tons of relatively hard to find stuff. -- nm - Qale Sep 19, 13:58

So aparently lost in the shuffle aparently Netflix is gonna take on Game Fly as far as games also -- nm - eag Sep 19, 13:55 1
- With Qwikster and Blockbuster eating into their business, Gamefly would be smart to go into digital delivery ala Steam. -- nm - Mop (195 lbs) Sep 19, 14:15
LIR: David. I've *never* used the Amazon service on my Roku mainly because I can't have a queue of what to watch. For all the hate that Netflix - oblique Sep 19, 13:53 4
- That's completely valid. My problem is that my video library is so large that it won't load on a lot of devices. - David, Archer fan Sep 19, 14:01
- If Redbox had a queue feature, i wouldn't have had to develop a spreadsheet. -- nm - spamlet (iPhone) Sep 19, 13:57 2
  - You too, 'eh? Google Docs has got my list. -- nm - Mop (195 lbs) Sep 19, 14:00 1
    - Yup that's what we went with. -- nm - spamlet (iPhone) Sep 19, 14:01
Spamlet, do not try to contain an argument on this board... - amoxy Sep 19, 13:53 3
- now it's time for the inevitable navel gazing! :) -- nm - znufrii Sep 19, 13:56 2
  - awkward pause or touch my glittery ball -- nm - zeitgeist Sep 19, 13:58 1
    - According to the lingerie model above, if your ball is glittery, you should get it checked out. -- nm - Chest Rockwell Sep 19, 14:01
Also, TFox has mail. -- nm - Mel Profit Sep 19, 13:52 2

      - thanks! (max, if this is not ok, don't tell me.) -- nm - b. Sep 19, 14:15 5
        
        We're actually going to make it a BOP feature in coming weeks. -- nm - David, Archer fan Sep 19, 14:16 4
        
        oo, customized listings so I have to do no work at all? cool! "watch these/record these/watch on-demand these" -- nm - b. Sep 19, 14:26 3
        
        Well, Max's spreadsheet databased. How involved it gets is to be determined. -- nm - David, Archer fan Sep 19, 14:32 2
        
        don't mind me, I was being dreamlisty. I'd also like a psychic feature ("don't even start watching, it's going to be cancelled way too soon"). - b. Sep 19, 14:36
        
        max is going over to the dark side? - moles Sep 19, 14:36

  - I hear Steven Soderbergh is directing another shitty documentary style art piece.. - colin Sep 19, 13:56 3
    - I liked Bubble. The Girlfriend Experience was exactly as interesting as you'd expect watching a porn star talk to be. -- nm - Reagen Sep 19, 14:20
    - *splurt* - znufrii Sep 19, 13:56 1
      - that's what she said! -- nm - TFox Sep 19, 13:58

      - one of these things is not like the other? -- nm - znufrii Sep 19, 13:59 3
        
        didn't you ever do those spot the difference things in Highlights? -- nm - moles Sep 19, 14:01 2
        
        I liked Goofus and Gallant. That Gallant kid needed a punch in the mouth. -- nm - loosilu Sep 19, 14:16
        
        loved those, but my favorite was Hidden Pictures - znufrii Sep 19, 14:02
      - ooh, what am i missing? -- nm - Andie Sep 19, 13:58 3
        
        (spoils) - moles Sep 19, 13:59 2
        
        But the other one has the bag on arm instead of in hand...cleary she needs her hands free for intel-gathering. -- nm - Will Hunting Sep 19, 14:03 1
        
        One of them is carrying a purse, too! -- nm - Mop (195 lbs) Sep 19, 14:23
