I think my ST-marriage proposal is getting a "no" -- nm - zork Oct 22, 12:34 10
- I'm not getting ST-married. I'm just going to cuckold all the other STers. -- nm - David Oct 22, 12:39 9
  - As ST is a group of swingers, you will be blocked out of all such activities. -- nm - Spawn Oct 22, 12:41 8
    - As the sexiest man on the board, I highly doubt that. -- nm - David Oct 22, 12:46 7
      - *still thinks of David as Cartman in the WoW South Park episode* -- nm - JaxSean Oct 22, 12:47 6

Is the new HSX down for everyone else, too? -- nm - Beryllium Oct 22, 12:31 19
- It's been down so very damn long that it looks like up to me. -- nm - Spawn Oct 22, 12:36
- If they are planning to reset the boards, they should know I have copies of my post.. (NM) - Marlowe Oct 22, 12:34 15

      - I think an issue a lot of folks need to accept is that D. Mac is low to mid level management. - David Oct 22, 12:41 7
        
        I'm not putting him at fault.. I truly am sorry for him because I'm almost sure he knows what a shitty decision it was, and he can't say "toldya"...nm - Marlowe Oct 22, 12:44 3
        
        He's been effectively apologizing for months now. Poor guy. -- nm - David Oct 22, 12:45 2
        
        Yeah.. Part of me died when he posted something to the tune of "I'm sorry. It was all the consultants,," (NM) - Marlowe Oct 22, 12:53 1
        
        This ... -- (link) - Beryllium Oct 22, 12:56
        
        (which is a shame because he has the best handle on the actual status of his client base) -- nm - David Oct 22, 12:42 2
        
        Which is why bosses should walk a mile, take customer calls twice a year, post on the boards, etc. -- nm - psilotum Oct 22, 12:44 1
        
        Absolutely. -- nm - David Oct 22, 12:45
    - The rage was sublime. -- nm - Diva Oct 22, 12:36
- have no idea...but FYI, ST seems to be semi regularly resetting my Handle to an older Handle. -- nm - Dano School Musical 3 Oct 22, 12:34 1
  - Odd. I haven't seen that happening. It stores that info in a cookie ... do you have any weird cookie management software on your machine? -- nm - Beryllium Oct 22, 12:38
The sad thing is, znu probably has a great figure for a dress. - ty97 Oct 22, 12:29 2

- 94.7 the Globe. -- nm - loosilu Oct 22, 12:28
Hump day board poll: If pr0n became a finite commodity, where do you think its price would settle relatively: Gallon of gas, moped, or a Cadillac? -- nm - emoticripple Oct 22, 12:26 13
- Moped. -- nm - ReluctantCynic Oct 22, 12:39 1
  - What'd I do now? -- nm - Mop Oct 22, 12:50
- I don't understand the question - Epiphany Oct 22, 12:37
- That really depends on how finite it is. Finite like gas, or finite like Maseratis? - Roger More Oct 22, 12:36
- once it is used, is it gone, or do we just trade DVDs with other porn owners? -- nm - colin Oct 22, 12:33 1
  - We're talking, like, one copy of each 'work'. -- nm - emoticripple Oct 22, 12:35
- Depends if we were on the up side of the supply curve or the down side. -- nm - VMan Oct 22, 12:29
- I think there would be less pr0n and more sex. -- nm - loosilu Oct 22, 12:27 4
  - And a lot more surprise sex, too. -- nm - Beryllium Oct 22, 12:30 3
    - UAI -- nm - Epiphany Oct 22, 12:36 2
      - What does that mean? -- nm - Beryllium Oct 22, 12:39 1
        
        Wait, I just checked on AcronymFinder ... I don't think I wanted to know what that meant. - Beryllium Oct 22, 12:42
- That video feature on my phone isn't looking so stupid now, is it? -- nm - kilboooo Oct 22, 12:27
Speaking of Hump Day, would it be unwise of me to schedule a trip to Vancouver, BC, around an opportunity to hook up? - ReluctantCynic Oct 22, 12:26 31
- Saves you some money on a hotel room, and you get laid? What's the down side? -- nm - Mop Oct 22, 12:52
- not unwise - some booty calls require plane trips -- nm - Epiphany Oct 22, 12:38
- As long as Craigslist is available, yes. -- nm - David Oct 22, 12:36
- unequivocally yes. -- nm - JaxSean Oct 22, 12:30 6

  - That's actually a good question. And I don't know the answer. - ReluctantCynic Oct 22, 12:33 1
    - A city can make sex " hotter". I am all ears. tell me more. -- nm - Epiphany Oct 22, 12:39
- Depends on the level of hotness today compared to the past. - CovingtonCat Oct 22, 12:27 7
  - [deleted] 6
    - but has he gotten more white and less ethic? - ty97 Oct 22, 12:30 5

        Hey now! Let's be nice here ... - ReluctantCynic Oct 22, 12:34 3
        
        Five guys? Or five chest hairs? -- nm - Roger More Oct 22, 12:40 2
        
        Five chest hairs. -- nm - ReluctantCynic Oct 22, 12:43 1
        
        That doesn't sound very symmettrical -- nm - Roger More Oct 22, 12:44
- Poll: How far would you go specifically to get laid? -- nm - Max Oct 22, 12:27 7
