    - " No Talking! and leave afterwards" -- nm - Epiphany Feb 13, 12:08
- I love that somebody cbaed friendship. (I mean, it sucks, but it's still mildly amusing) -- nm - mafic Feb 13, 12:00
- Just cuz you force her to pay a monthly Kare fee..... -- nm - Will Hunting Feb 13, 11:59
- Well, if that's who I think it is, then you are showing the best attitude in your IM - con_carne Feb 13, 11:57
- I hope you're laughing your ass off, because that's what it deserves. -- nm - loosilu Feb 13, 11:56

I really, really hate the movie Singles, but not as much as Reality Bites. -- nm - loosilu Feb 13, 11:51 22
- Heh. Flawless victory! -- nm - Trish Feb 13, 12:03
- Stop with the heel turn! -- nm - David, Drunken Adulterer Feb 13, 11:59

- of course -- nm - crash davis Feb 13, 11:53
- Why do you hate it? -- nm - con_carne Feb 13, 11:53 6
  - Singles, I mean -- nm - con_carne Feb 13, 11:55 5
    - stupid, unfunny, etc. -- nm - loosilu Feb 13, 11:55 4
      - I knew to many people like that at the time, so I liked it quite abit. -- nm - Remlik Feb 13, 11:56 3
        
        it rang *very true* at the time. -- nm - Andie Feb 13, 11:58 1
        
        1992, I was in grad skool hell, so it didn't speak to me I guess. -- nm - loosilu Feb 13, 11:59
        
        I knew the guys in High Fidelity. Singles, not so much. -- nm - loosilu Feb 13, 11:58
- *shun* -- nm - JaxSean Feb 13, 11:51 2
  - i love Singles. Reality Bites is just a lesser version of Singles. -- nm - Andie Feb 13, 11:52 1
    - my friend and I rented Reality Bites for free, and it was too expensive. -- nm - loosilu Feb 13, 11:57
Sandy on Survivor got the crazy eyes -- nm - pigby Feb 13, 11:51
For all your PS3 looky-loos who want a PS3 for blu-ray... that's why I got one. - Mop Feb 13, 11:50 22
- With Final Fantasy 13 looking more like Fall 2010 and not PS3 exclusive, no chance I'll get one in the forseeable future. -- nm - Qale Feb 13, 11:56 4
  - I wonder how many 360 discs it will take. -- nm - Shaun Feb 13, 11:58 2
    - FF12 only took the one. -- nm - Qale Feb 13, 12:09 1
      - One PS2 disc. The used a look of tricks ti make it look nice, objects that are far away are not in full resolution till you get near them. Etc. -- nm - lileve Feb 13, 12:11
  - I finally saw the trailer last week *swoon* -- nm - Strongbad Feb 13, 11:56
- I've got a ps3 and a wii. I never use the wii, but play the ps3 all the time - decline Feb 13, 11:55 1
  - Pretty much the same here. -- nm - Ender Feb 13, 11:58
- $400 for 3 movies? pass. -- nm - JaxSean Feb 13, 11:51 3
  - They also have companies now that will allow you to use a movie disc for a period of time in exchange for a small fee and then return it. -- nm - Ender Feb 13, 11:57 1
    - You must be a witch! Burn him! -- nm - David, Drunken Adulterer Feb 13, 12:01
  - I assure you I didn't pay anywhere near $400. -- nm - Mop Feb 13, 11:53
- Still needs a $100 price drop. -- nm - Shaun Feb 13, 11:51 10
  - It needs a lot more than that if it ever wants to climb out of the basement. -- nm - Don Homer Feb 13, 11:51 9
    - The basement is irrelevant to me. I'd just like to have one ready to roll once GoW3 hits. -- nm - Shaun Feb 13, 11:53 8
      - So you'd pay $360+ for it? -- nm - Don Homer Feb 13, 11:56 1
        
        $299 is the selling point for me. Plus the BR player would be really nice to have. -- nm - Shaun Feb 13, 11:57
      - yep. That's the only game I'm looking forward to on PS3 -- nm - Remlik Feb 13, 11:54 5
        
        And I'd like to have a small collection of BRs. Just for the really good movies that I like. -- nm - Shaun Feb 13, 11:56 4
        
        The actual premium over the price of the Special Edition DVD has been leading me to buy more BR than I thought I would. - Ender Feb 13, 12:22
        
        this is what I am doing -- nm - decline Feb 13, 12:01
        
        yep. -- nm - Remlik Feb 13, 12:00 1
        
        Plus I'd use it intead of the 360 for the media centre to save any sort of wear and tear on the 360 since the PS3 is much more stable, hardware-wise. -- nm - Shaun Feb 13, 12:03

- The challenge has been issued. Let's see if the argument "I want to use the phone on another network" carries any weight. -- nm - Mop Feb 13, 11:51 2
  - [deleted] 1
    - Really? Do tell. -- nm - Mop Feb 13, 11:56
- I'd be careful about pursuing that much though, if I were Apple. -- nm - Don Homer Feb 13, 11:51 1
  - Yup. It's a crap shoot. If it goes to the Supreme Court, fair use (such as in the Betamax ruling) may come into play. - Mop Feb 13, 11:52
FWIW. I agree with Spanwcumber -- nm - oblique, better than nubby Feb 13, 11:50
How the hell did the WWE botch the Christian return? -- nm - Qale Feb 13, 11:49 8
- Punishment for leaving, star power for ECW..... -- nm - Will Hunting Feb 13, 11:57
- Is he a vampire? -- nm - Strongbad Feb 13, 11:51 6
  - back in the day he and Edge were with Gangrel living the gothic lifestyle. -- nm - Remlik Feb 13, 11:55 1
    - I know. -- nm - Strongbad Feb 13, 11:58
  - No. He should have been. But they just spontaniously brought him back unannounced on a random episode of ECW. Lame. -- nm - Qale Feb 13, 11:51 3
    - My guess is cause ECW is the weakest of the 3 brands - eag Feb 13, 11:55 1
      - and he'll pop on Raw a lot I suspect since they tape shows together. -- nm - Remlik Feb 13, 11:57
    - Huh. -- nm - Strongbad Feb 13, 11:52
[deleted] 3
- i actually know people in a situation not-unlike this one. do this day most people don't know the child isn't the husband's. -- nm - Andie Feb 13, 11:51 1
  - "to this day." honestly, my typing is getting worse. -- nm - Andie Feb 13, 11:53
- they could do a set of photos with the real father. -- nm - loosilu Feb 13, 11:50
it's Valentine's Day! -- nm - pigby Feb 13, 11:49 1
