After next week, Game of Thrones will already be half way over. :( -- nm - Jovian Apr 25, 13:09 2
- I want it to never be over -- nm - Epiphany Apr 25, 13:11 1
  - I know! 10 episode seasons are the HBO standard now, but jesus I just don't want it to stop airing. -- nm - Jovian Apr 25, 13:12

i think i want this -- (link) - tRuMaN, (possibly absurd) Apr 25, 13:04 3

- Halo 4 preorder from Amazon or is there a better place? -- nm - oblique Apr 25, 13:08 1
  - I would wait to see what special offers the various stores have. - David Apr 25, 13:09
Happy Birthday Andie - amoxy Apr 25, 13:01 1
- Thanks Andy! -- nm - Andie Apr 25, 13:01
All right NFL fans, it's time for my third non-annual list of players I really like in this draft. - David Apr 25, 12:57 9 1
- what about the rb from boise? - tRuMaN, (possibly absurd) Apr 25, 13:05 1
  - I like him okay but not enough to celebrate anybody drafting him. -- nm - David Apr 25, 13:06
- I just read McShay's mock which had Hayward going to the Pats in the 2nd. That would be a dream for me. -- nm - TFox Apr 25, 13:04 4

    - His Vikings picks are: - TFox Apr 25, 13:12 2
      - [deleted]
      - oh, and 134 was Sanu, who David listed. -- nm - TFox Apr 25, 13:13
- looks like we got 2 Five Paragraph Davids, folks! - Mel Profit Apr 25, 13:02 1
  - And my timing was *terrible* given the thread right below it. - David Apr 25, 13:03
ok, I need some advice now...... - groiny Apr 25, 12:52 82
- can you get their snailmail? Maybe email would work but it may be worth a fee to have a lawyer contact them and suggest a conversation is in order - zeitgeist Apr 25, 13:16 1
  - what possible grounds could he have for 'legally' demanding a conversation? if i got a letter from someone telling me i had to talk to them - Andie Apr 25, 13:19
- What's your end game? What could this person possibly tell you other than flat-out confirmation? - TWuG Apr 25, 13:12
- [deleted]
- Do you really want that email forwarded all over the country? Then go ahead and do it. -- nm - zork Apr 25, 13:09
- I understand where you are. You have to know. - Inigo Apr 25, 13:07
- You should use simple terms. 8===> (*) ? -- nm - oblique Apr 25, 13:01
- Do you know where this person works? Confront them in person? - amoxy Apr 25, 13:00 3
  - [deleted] 2
    - Yeah I know it has really bad idea written all over it but I still think the truth would come out -- nm - amoxy Apr 25, 13:02 1
      - heh. Should have read all the responses. -- nm - Iron Spawn Apr 25, 13:05
- Ask them if they can help you get 23 million dollars out of your country. -- nm - Qale Apr 25, 12:59
- I see no upside to this. -- nm - David Apr 25, 12:59 1
  - I have to agree. I mean, face to face you can at least et a read (but then run the risk of ripping their head off), but an email does not seem to help - Iron Spawn Apr 25, 13:04
- I think this is a situation between you and your wife --- confronting this other person (especially with all the games going on) isn't going to lead - Will Hunting Apr 25, 12:54 10
  - so, there would be zero chance to find out the truth then? nm -- nm - groiny Apr 25, 12:55 9
    - I honestly, at this point, don't see this person being truthful. - Will Hunting Apr 25, 12:59
    - what reason would he have to tell you anything? - znufrii Apr 25, 12:59 5
      - well, they are also married, so there is a 95% chance that they would not admit it. nm -- nm - groiny Apr 25, 13:00 4
        
        Zero chance they put anything in writing, then. -- nm - Iron Spawn Apr 25, 13:09
        
        Do you know that guys wife? -- nm - amoxy Apr 25, 13:07
        
        That's actually different since their spouse deserves to know. -- nm - David Apr 25, 13:02
        
        then don't bother, really. it won't answer your doubts. -- nm - Andie Apr 25, 13:01
    - well, there is no guarantee of the truth from either of them, really. - Andie Apr 25, 12:58
    - I would not trust this person to tell the truth. -- nm - loosilu Apr 25, 12:56
- does your wife know you are about to email them? - Andie Apr 25, 12:53 54
  - that post has since been deleted. nm -- nm - groiny Apr 25, 12:55 53
    - possibly painful question - what, in your heart of hearts, deep in your gut, what do you THINK is the truth? -- nm - Andie Apr 25, 12:57 52
      - let's just say that I had an odd feeling about this person before any of this came out.... - groiny Apr 25, 12:59 51
        
        man oh man -- nm - Epiphany Apr 25, 13:07
        
        ugh. -- nm - Mel Profit Apr 25, 13:03
        
        Shit, that sucks man -- nm - amoxy Apr 25, 13:01
        
        That's a bad sign. -- nm - David Apr 25, 13:01
        
        what is your wife's explanation? -- nm - Andie Apr 25, 13:00 46
        
        chick just starting shit. nm -- nm - groiny Apr 25, 13:01 45
        
        Chick starting shit would be "Her Haircut sucks" or "Their dog craps in the house" - amoxy Apr 25, 13:04
        
        "Why would she believe it's possible?" -- nm - David Apr 25, 13:02
        
        Is there a plausible reason why this woman would want to make trouble? -- nm - mara Apr 25, 13:02 9
        
        well, supposedly, she is a bitch. Which I do not know, because I do not really know her. nm -- nm - groiny Apr 25, 13:03 8
        
        How does your wife feel about the fact that you're clearly upset by the allegation? -- nm - David Apr 25, 13:04 7
        
        she is upset about it. nm -- nm - groiny Apr 25, 13:05 6
        
        That's a good sign fwiw. -- nm - David Apr 25, 13:07 5
        
        and she is the one who gave me the guys email. nm -- nm - groiny Apr 25, 13:08 4
        
        that's also a good sign. -- nm - loosilu Apr 25, 13:09
        
        this is signficant -- nm - Epiphany Apr 25, 13:09 2
        
        meh. - TFox Apr 25, 13:09 1
        
        Plus, the thing of him being married. -- nm - Iron Spawn Apr 25, 13:21
        
        but, no reason *why*? people would need a really big reason to start something that destructfully epic. -- nm - Andie Apr 25, 13:02 32
        
        well, she did not realize that I was friends with the person whose wall she posted it on. nm -- nm - groiny Apr 25, 13:02 31
        
        So, a dumbass as well as a gossip monger. She sounds classy. -- nm - David Apr 25, 13:08
        
        regardless. you don't post something like that for no reason. you know there will be fallout. -- nm - Andie Apr 25, 13:03 29
        
        this is what she sent me...... - groiny Apr 25, 13:04 28
        
        I agree with Mel that she seems angry. Did your wife and her...have a thing maybe? - David Apr 25, 13:11 5
        
        there are other, non-sexual scenarios that would explain it, fwiw. -- nm - loosilu Apr 25, 13:14 2
        
        I didn't say it was the only one, but that would explain some stuff. Her having a crush on the married guy is another. -- nm - David Apr 25, 13:15
        
        Thousands, really. nm - Dignan Apr 25, 13:15
        
        that would be an interesting twist -- nm - Epiphany Apr 25, 13:13 1
        
        Only if this movie isn't on Cinemax. If it is, it's a certainty. -- nm - Will Hunting Apr 25, 13:14
        
        wow. - znufrii Apr 25, 13:11
        
        this person sounds very very angry. - Mel Profit Apr 25, 13:08
        
        Any ideas as to the timing -- why was this posted now? How long has it been since your wife and this women have interacted? -- nm - mara Apr 25, 13:08
        
        this sounds like Bad Idea Jeans, but... I think you should take this bitch up on her offer. - TFox Apr 25, 13:08 3
        
        I don't agree with this in that if someone were lying about this, any request for further details would require upping the ante. - David Apr 25, 13:14 2
        
        i don't see any real reason to believe she's lying. - TFox Apr 25, 13:15 1
        
        That's a good question. -- nm - David Apr 25, 13:16
        
        wow. ugh -- nm - prayformojo Apr 25, 13:07
        
        affairs? ugh -- nm - oblique Apr 25, 13:07
        
        that's ugly. but you don't post on someone's wall (even if she doesn't know you're freinds with that person), and not think about starting shit. - loosilu Apr 25, 13:07
        
        well, as much as this person sounds horrible, i think you need to talk to them, and in person. - Andie Apr 25, 13:06 11
        
        I could be wrong but I think he was talking about talking to the man who was involved in possible affair. - loosilu Apr 25, 13:07 10
        
        he was. i think he should talk to this person instead. -- nm - Andie Apr 25, 13:08 9
        
        Yes. And is it possible that mrs. groiny has warned mr. x? nm - Dignan Apr 25, 13:12 4
        
        possible? I'd take it as a given. -- nm - znufrii Apr 25, 13:13 3
        
        Then without proof, he'd be a dead end. nm - Dignan Apr 25, 13:14 1
        
        I would assume so. -- nm - loosilu Apr 25, 13:15
        
        I'd be checking my phone records (home and cell) -- nm - oblique Apr 25, 13:14
        
        agreed -- nm - Epiphany Apr 25, 13:10
        
        ok, yes. -- nm - loosilu Apr 25, 13:09
        
        Yeah, I think he needs to hear her full story. -- nm - Inigo Apr 25, 13:09 1
        
        If only because if he doesn't, he'll always wonder what she had to say. -- nm - mara Apr 25, 13:10
- [deleted] 1
  - well, yeah, it is a he. nm -- nm - groiny Apr 25, 12:53

[deleted] 4
- I think I like this but I also think they're fine with Greene and would be better off staying put - Krusty Apr 25, 12:48 2
  - I disagree in that Greene can't play. He's just a guy. -- nm - David Apr 25, 13:06 1
    - I worry you're right but I also worry that without a better OL it won't matter who is back there. - Krusty Apr 25, 13:14
- I mean, when you have Sanchez and Tebow...QB is solved for a decade. -- nm - Will Hunting Apr 25, 12:45

- Chance Crawford still gay and hawt -- nm - Epiphany Apr 25, 12:37 4

  - Broderick Crawford was a high-toned sumb!tch in 'All the Kings Men'. -- nm - Diva Apr 25, 12:39 1
    - Joan Crawford is old and not very interesting -- nm - The Incredible Budice Apr 25, 12:40

- "I personally don't mind it," one shopper told KTLA." -- nm - David Apr 25, 13:00 1
  - that's Pullitzer material right there. - zork Apr 25, 13:04
- ....really? -- nm - znufrii Apr 25, 12:55
- fine. all future catalogs will only have men kissing -- nm - Urban Outfitters Apr 25, 12:50

- It's the new O RLY. -- nm - Reagen Apr 25, 12:38
It took almost that entire thread to figure out whether I needed to convert those prices to thousands or not. -- nm - TFox Apr 25, 12:19 15
- I can see how the word "Detroit" in the replies could cause that confusion. -- nm - Dr.Vermin Apr 25, 12:20 14
  - Clearly, what this means is my brain is fried and I need to leave asap to drink and have sliders. -- nm - TFox Apr 25, 12:21 13
    - I can't be the only one hungry. Let's poll it: pick a slider, any slider: -- (link) - TFox Apr 25, 12:25 12
      - Is a slider just a small burger? I don't think I've had one since White Castle when I was a kid. - Krusty Apr 25, 12:51 1
