  - and then paid for his coffee "You buy this man his coffee. He drank it straight up" -- nm - Remlik Feb 19, 09:20
  - I am sure that would have at least slightly amused him.nm -- nm - groiny Feb 19, 09:09 4
    - or he would have flipped the eff out. - Mel Profit Feb 19, 09:10 3
      - Either way, victory was yours. -- nm - Will Hunting Feb 19, 09:18 1
        
        The fact that I am still alive proves it. -- nm - Mel Profit Feb 19, 09:18

  - oh yeah, I was walking behind Paul Rudd out of a film screening once and he stopped short and my nose basically wound up in his hair. - ty97 Feb 19, 09:06 3
    - [deleted] 1
      - I think in this context, basically means "accidentally on purpose" -- nm - Roger More Feb 19, 09:14
    - Did any other part of you sort of "wind up in him"? -- nm - Spawn Feb 19, 09:07
  - He does absolutely nothing for me for some reason. -- nm - MDH Feb 19, 09:04 14
    - agreed. Not attractive and a douchebag. -- nm - ty97 Feb 19, 09:07 9

      - why the hate? -- nm - Beaker Feb 19, 09:07 7
        
        Every time I see him he seems full of himself, like everything around him is a joke, and nothing matters. - ty97 Feb 19, 09:11 6
        
        I get the joke part, but he agreed to do a soap opera storyline that to me is n ot taking your self seriously...plus his pillow lover on 30 Rock -- nm - Beaker Feb 19, 09:16
        
        but man, if he just wouldn't open his mouth... -- nm - amanda Feb 19, 09:15 4
        
        But where is the fun in that? -- nm - Spawn Feb 19, 09:17 2
        
        Now I know you be trippin' -- nm - Beaker Feb 19, 09:18 1
        
        If there is no kissing, it is like a prosie. -- nm - Spawn Feb 19, 09:19
        
        [deleted]
    - He is one that you would have to meet. You know how some people have a sort of presence to them? -- nm - Spawn Feb 19, 09:06 2
      - [deleted]
      - SFEK. I could see him being like that. -- nm - Spawn Feb 19, 09:06

Smutty you mean to tell me you didn't extract any Dr. Who tidbits from The Moff? shame on you! - Remlik Feb 19, 09:02 7
- I don't want to know what's coming up, I want to be surprised. But I trust you saw this. - LMS Feb 19, 09:12 1
  - nice. I didn't know they had an actor lined for the 2nd Doctor. -- nm - Remlik Feb 19, 09:27
- Don't hassle the Moff -- nm - Roger More Feb 19, 09:04
- I get the feeling Moff loves to not answer that. -- nm - loosilu Feb 19, 09:03 3
  - oh I know. I think his response to her would be amusing -- nm - Remlik Feb 19, 09:03 2
    - He probably has a standard response he gives. Brief, sounds like something useful, and is not. -- nm - Spawn Feb 19, 09:04 1
      - accompanied by the smirk. -- nm - loosilu Feb 19, 09:05
"is that a bowling team?" *cracking up* -- nm - Mel Profit Feb 19, 09:02 2

  - Hahaha. -- nm - Krusty Feb 19, 09:10
Does anyone order bagels on line from NY? Vendor preference? -- nm - ty97 Feb 19, 09:02 2

- that seems like far too much effort for bagels. -- nm - znufrii Feb 19, 09:05
test -- nm - Beaker Feb 19, 09:01 1
- Didn't work. -- nm - Mop (190 lbs) Feb 19, 09:11
from b2: I dont' think fallen hair contains enough DNA to work with. -- nm - loosilu Feb 19, 09:00 6
- Yeah, here we go. To get nuclear DNA, you need the hair follicle to be attached, which you typically don't get in fallen hair. - loosilu Feb 19, 09:02
- It does if you're in Gattaca -- nm - Roger More Feb 19, 09:01
- TV has lied to me! -- nm - Krusty Feb 19, 09:01 3
  - it probably has, in this case. -- nm - loosilu Feb 19, 09:02 2
    - " So if you're wondering if you can be caught by the police if all they have is a piece of hair with no follicle, yes you can! " - Andie Feb 19, 09:12 1
      - I doubt it would stand up in court, honestly. mDNA doesn't vary that much. if there's a match then you have to prove that the sequences are uncommon. -- nm - loosilu Feb 19, 09:14
