mandy's campaign is clearly working. Right now I'm craving lemon doughnuts. -- nm - Reagen Jan 14, 13:09 15
- I'm craving the Lemonade Girl Scout cookies...which is bad...there are cases of them at home -- nm - The Calico Cat Coalition Jan 14, 13:15
- I'm always afraid they would sting when I put them on. -- nm - Mop Jan 14, 13:12
- I still don't know what the hell a lemon donut is. -- nm - JaxSean Jan 14, 13:11 11
  - Donuts with manufacturing defects. -- nm - Inigo Jan 14, 13:12 2
    - Inigo is cracking me up today. *golf clap* (nm) - musubi Jan 14, 13:14 1
      - *nods* could have also defined it as a doughnut made by GM -- nm - zork Jan 14, 13:15
  - Imagine a doughnut... with lemon in it. - Reagen Jan 14, 13:12 2
    - *imagines a whole lemon inside a doughnut* -- nm - zork Jan 14, 13:14 1
      - frack, that was supposed to be a jax si -- nm - zork Jan 14, 13:14
  - Do you know what a jelly donut is? Do you know what a lemon square or pastry is? - TFox Jan 14, 13:12 4
    - Oh, ok. -- nm - JaxSean Jan 14, 13:13 3
      - think lemon meringue pie filling inside a jelly doughnut -- nm - zork Jan 14, 13:13 2
        
        But the lemon goop is closer to boston creme donut consistency. Not in creaminess, just in general density and vibe. -- nm - TFox Jan 14, 13:14 1
        
        when you explain it, the thread seems to become one about bodily fluids -- nm - zork Jan 14, 13:16
- they're good but I'm liking the idea of that being a mild curse phrase -- nm - zork Jan 14, 13:10
Womens washroom scenario heard from a female co-worker today......(slight office overshare) - Walt_Disney Jan 14, 13:04 9
- Related? I couldn't deal w/the public restrooms (for women) in Japan that required you to stand to go. I'd just wait to get back to my hotel room. -- nm - Diva Jan 14, 13:12 1
  - I'm sorry, what? -- nm - Mop Jan 14, 13:16
- it seems crazy, but I'll believe almost anything related to that. -- nm - loosilu Jan 14, 13:09
- grease the seats -- nm - zork Jan 14, 13:07
- i totally believe it. a friend of mine worked on a floor that shared bathrooms with an english school. - Andie Jan 14, 13:06
- Seems more dangerous, not terribly more effective and ewww on the shoes -- nm - oblique Jan 14, 13:06
- Crouching with her feet on the seat, I might believe. Standing, no. -- nm - Dr.Vermin Jan 14, 13:05
- Sort of like in Step Brothers... -- nm - Shaun Jan 14, 13:05 1
  - "I want to roll you up and stuff you in my *&^%!" - Mel Profit Jan 14, 13:07
For those of you that are curious, my boss showed up at 11:15 and just left for lunch - amoxy Jan 14, 13:03 4
- The Amoxy Show has preempted the Mandy Show? (nm) - musubi Jan 14, 13:12

- Your boss is me in graduate school? -- nm - nubby Jan 14, 13:03 1
  - heh -- nm - psilotum Jan 14, 13:07
TT Poll: Your 1st grader gets home with his behavior book marked "used inappropriate language". - TFox Jan 14, 13:02 26
- Not in the least. -- nm - TWuG Jan 14, 13:12
- ridunculous -- nm - ty97 Jan 14, 13:11
- I'd probably laugh as I explained to my kid why it was inapporpriate. - JaxSean Jan 14, 13:10 1
  - Yeah, I almost never want to do this (laugh mid-discipline), but I'd have no choice here. -- nm - TFox Jan 14, 13:14
- I think the "farting" at that age is more inappropriate then "butt naked." -- nm - Walt_Disney Jan 14, 13:08 1
  - [deleted]
- not entirely appropriate during class but I don't like that nakedness and natural body processes are made out to be wrong -- nm - zork Jan 14, 13:05 4
  - I think nudity should be taught in a way that of when and where it is ok to be nude and when it is not. Stop teaching shame. - lileve Jan 14, 13:09 2
    - the nudity and farting obviously happened at home and the story was merely being relayed. -- nm - zork Jan 14, 13:12
    - the concept of there being places where it is not okay to be nude is rooted entirely in shame ... - Beryllium Jan 14, 13:12
  - *farts on you* -- nm - znufrii Jan 14, 13:07
- "What the heck is a rimjob?" -- nm - znufrii Jan 14, 13:05
- heh, that's funny. -- nm - Andie Jan 14, 13:04
- Speaking of farting, I was talking to a guy at his cube, he reached up to turn on his little fan - amoxy Jan 14, 13:04 1
  - Sentences should never start with "speaking of farting..." -- nm - Cuzzin Todd Jan 14, 13:07
- not in that context. -- nm - Remlik Jan 14, 13:04
- *sniffsniff* I've never been prouder in my life than I am right now -- nm - Tfox SI Jan 14, 13:04 1
  - Teacher, your face is inappropriate. Now go away, the boys are talking here. -- nm - Jacen si Jan 14, 13:05
- Incorrect at best. It's "buck naked", right? I'm just surprised the "farted" wasn't the offending word. -- nm - Dr.Vermin Jan 14, 13:03 3
  - In this instance, given the hilarity of the fart, I'm ok with "butt naked". Highlights the important part of the joke. -- nm - TFox Jan 14, 13:06 2
    - It is the nakedness of the butt that's relevant, I agree. :) -- nm - Dr.Vermin Jan 14, 13:08 1
      - "My brother farted. He was wearing ass-less chaps. It was funny." -- nm - psilotum Jan 14, 13:14
- No -- nm - con_carne Jan 14, 13:03
- Completely inappropriate - znufrii Jan 14, 13:03
- no. -- nm - loosilu Jan 14, 13:03
- in school. yeah -- nm - oblique Jan 14, 13:03
Now here is a restaurant I need in my neighborhood. (link) - Jovian Jan 14, 13:00 2

- Here come the meat sweats! -- nm - Mop Jan 14, 13:04

- Yep. -- nm - kelly Jan 14, 13:06
- usually but not always...nm - x Jan 14, 13:02
- yep. -- nm - Diva Jan 14, 13:01
- Yep. I'm a total nerd about it too. - con_carne Jan 14, 13:01
- yes, because zip gives reward points for doing so. -- nm - Reagen Jan 14, 13:00
- Yup. I just wish Netflix was linked to Facebook like Flickster is. I end up ranking them twice -- nm - oblique Jan 14, 13:00
- yes. I did it for movies I already own as well. -- nm - tRuMaN Jan 14, 12:59
Since 12/26/07 I've averaged 4.3 movies per month in the mail from Blockbuster. The total would be pretty much doubled by in-store exchanges. -- nm - Ender Jan 14, 12:58
zork - oblique Jan 14, 12:58 3
- hard to say. - zork Jan 14, 13:00 2
  - yeah - oblique Jan 14, 13:07 1
    - well - zork Jan 14, 13:10

- blurry -- nm - J Jan 14, 12:58
- blurry. -- nm - JaxSean Jan 14, 12:58 2
  - Crap. I'm probably going to have to try once. I hope I don't have issues - TWuG Jan 14, 12:59 1
    - It *rocked* in 3d. -- nm - JaxSean Jan 14, 13:07
[deleted] 9
- restaurant GC. -- nm - loosilu Jan 14, 13:00 1
  - that could have date connotations. book store GC maybe? -- nm - zork Jan 14, 13:03
- Something simple like a thank you card? A small gift card? -- nm - Strongbad Jan 14, 12:59 2
  - $10 Starbucks Card -- nm - znufrii Jan 14, 13:01 1
    - AMC, Tarjay, something like that -- nm - Strongbad Jan 14, 13:03
- ... like a cake shaped like a penis -- nm - JackDawson SI Jan 14, 12:58
- oral? -- nm - oblique Jan 14, 12:58 2
  - She's not really a readhead. -- nm - Dano Jan 14, 13:03 1
    - nice carry-over from yesterday! -- nm - zork Jan 14, 13:06
SITWAP: Toyota managers voluntarily buying Toyotas to boost sales. -- (link) - TaurusII Jan 14, 12:56 2
- now there's a sustainable model...nm - x Jan 14, 12:59 1
  - I disagree. I believe that yesterday was less idiotic than the day before. But the trend is clearly downward. -- nm - Mop Jan 14, 13:00
LIR: Andie. Was it the Georgian Hotel? -- (link) - con_carne Jan 14, 12:56 3
- nope. it was very 50's looking, in Santa Monica on Ocean Blvd i believe. i could probably google it up. - Andie Jan 14, 12:57 2
  - (sorry - and shorter than the Georgian!) about a block north of it i think. -- nm - Andie Jan 14, 12:58 1
    - I mentioned that one cause it stands out to me whenever I pass by it -- nm - con_carne Jan 14, 13:00
Shipping Today: Broken Arrow, Appaloosa -- nm - MDH Jan 14, 12:53 1
- One of the guys in my program in college loved the Broken Arrow soundtrack. - nubby Jan 14, 12:54
In the last year, we've had 54 discs sent from Netflix. Probably watched about 46 of them. -- nm - TFox Jan 14, 12:52 13
- I average close to 20 a month, watch almost all of them. If they're home over a week they go back unwatched. -- nm - Cuzzin Todd Jan 14, 13:03
- 17 since Oct.20, but I think I'm canceling at the end of the month -- nm - J Jan 14, 13:01
- is there something that tells you this, or did you calculate on your own? -- nm - JaxSean Jan 14, 12:57 1
  - Under your account, you can pull your DVD Rental History and count. -- nm - TFox Jan 14, 12:58

  - We have periods of inactivity, and then bursts of action. Recently, we've been churning more actively. - TFox Jan 14, 12:56 4
    - [deleted]
    - And also, for me, 2 a month is probably my "Netflix is worth it" threshold. - TFox Jan 14, 12:57 2
      - [deleted] 1
        
        I would guess average usage is somewhere between you and me, and yeah, I bet they do ok. -- nm - TFox Jan 14, 13:03
- (plus 2 watch-it-nows) -- nm - TFox Jan 14, 12:54

- My oats are bulging froom the sack and ready to spill -- nm - con_carne Jan 14, 13:01
- My oats will not sprout any more. -- nm - TaurusII Jan 14, 12:57
- If they're sown they are by definition not wild. -- nm - znufrii Jan 14, 12:54 11
  - if i were a pedant, i might point out the act of sowing itself has nothing to do with whether a plant is wild or domesticated....nm - x Jan 14, 13:04
  - Are wild strawberries really wild? Will they scratch an adult, will they snap at a child? -- nm - loosilu Jan 14, 12:57

    - See, in a way, he did. - con_carne Jan 14, 12:57 3

on 01/09/09 gamefly got my game, and shipped the next one to me. st poll, when will it get here? -- nm - tRuMaN Jan 14, 12:49 12
