- Goldeneye? -- nm - Remlik Feb 16, 10:00 5

- You partook in the steak and it... disagrees with you :) -- nm - con_carne Feb 16, 09:56
- Interpreting dreams is all about emotion. Dreams mean nothing beyond how you're feeling during the dream. -- nm - nubby, worse than oblique Feb 16, 09:51 9
  - in the first dream it gave me a feeling of peace and that i could slow down, but i was also confused because part of me felt like i shouldn't be - kare Feb 16, 09:59 8

- You like flowers. -- nm - Loyola Feb 16, 09:51
- You really are lesbian, thus the obsession with "flowers". -- nm - David, Drunken Adulterer Feb 16, 09:49

I'm calling shenanigans on Apple! My iMac must get updates once/week! Even my Windows PC only gets update once/month. -- nm - Mop Feb 16, 09:39 3
- That's because Apple responds faster to security holes, see. Microsoft is slow and old and leaves you unprotected! -- nm - oblique, better than nubby Feb 16, 09:40 2
  - Wait... what security holes? -- nm - Mop Feb 16, 09:41 1
    - Apple only has problems because it is based on FreeBSD, see. It's really UNIX's fault. Apple is perfect. Oooom. -- nm - oblique, better than nubby Feb 16, 09:42

    - What? Guys, stop making fun of me ... -- nm - crash driving the warthog si Feb 16, 10:16
- I'll feel bad for all these cars out there on the roads with other cars that can't respond. They'll be lonely for awhile. Very lonely. -- nm - TWuG Feb 16, 09:46
Oh, and I'm sure I missed Dollhouse talk--but I personally thought it was horrendous. -- nm - Amy Feb 16, 09:37 18

  - not really spoilers - Amy Feb 16, 09:41
- We still haven't watched it yet, which is an indictment in and of itself. - David, Drunken Adulterer Feb 16, 09:38 4
  - it's ok, lot's of room for growth with a solid cast. But it better improve. -- nm - Remlik Feb 16, 09:40 3
    - The cast seems... (spoiler?) - nubby, worse than oblique Feb 16, 09:41 2
      - that's probably a good thing I think. -- nm - Remlik Feb 16, 09:45 1
