- Woah, Piers Morgan is black?! -- nm - my initial thought Oct 20, 08:29 1
  - I admit, after reading this, for a second I was confusing him with Herman. -- nm - The Ruiner Oct 20, 08:30

    - It seems like not so long ago, it wasn't that disrespectful to think homosexuality was a choice - Guigue Oct 20, 08:34 1
      - Then again, gay people say otherwise, they're the one who can feel it, so I can see how it's disrecpectful not to believe it -- nm - Guigue Oct 20, 08:35

  - See above. -- nm - The Ruiner Oct 20, 08:24
- 500 -- nm - ceregon Oct 20, 08:21

- My current apt is around 550 (rough estimate). I estimate I could go as low as... 450? - con_carnage Oct 20, 08:19
- I think my MIL's apartment is under 200 sq ft. It boggles the mind how she lives there. - TFox Oct 20, 08:16 1
  - You city folk are weird. -- nm - BloodyAxeSean Oct 20, 08:18
- I just looked at 2 apartments, 950sq ft and 1600 sq ft. I took the 1600 because the other was too small. -- nm - decline Oct 20, 08:15 6

    - I was sure pixie was going to say this. - Mel Profit Oct 20, 08:28

  - [deleted]
  - I actually don't think it's typically the case that the school picks the date for high school reunions. - Don Homer Oct 20, 08:15 1
    - Maybe different for a private school where it's seen as a fundraising opportunity. Ours is always homecoming weekend, but I assumed everyone did it - pmb Oct 20, 08:20
- you couldn't pay me enough. -- nm - loosibery Oct 20, 08:10
- You would be the one planning that. -- nm - MDH Oct 20, 08:09
- why would you do that? doesn't the very idea of doing that just scream "THIS WILL SUCK". -- nm - TFox Oct 20, 08:09

  - How was it living above a bar? - con_carnage Oct 20, 08:06 4
    - some good friends used to live over a brass & ferns place. The owner was their landlord. He gave them free dinners a lot of the time. -- nm - loosibery Oct 20, 08:12
    - It was awesome for us (being in college). The noise wasn't a problem and because of this bars location, we were actually quite apart from everything - kilbooooo Oct 20, 08:09 2
      - Of course, the question I was really curious about, but hesitated to post was (spoiler) - con_carnage Oct 20, 08:15 1

  - But is it awesome? -- nm - con_carnage Oct 20, 07:58 2
    - not really. she hates how small it is -- nm - decline Oct 20, 07:58 1

On The Axis, are the three smaller dials an analog stopwatch? -- nm - nubbyllium Oct 20, 07:52 3

  - Neato. -- nm - nubbyllium Oct 20, 07:57 1
    - you need a stopwatch for work, right? - loosibery Oct 20, 07:58
for Mel - AQ *was* able to take advantage of civil war in Algeria, and gathered various groups into a coalition. - loosibery Oct 20, 07:52 2
- Right, I imagine they're trying to swoop in and take credit for as much as they can, and I would hope that Joe Libyan is telling them - Reagen Oct 20, 08:02
- interesting. and your last sentence could be it. -- nm - Mel Profit Oct 20, 07:53
