I had a wonderful evening with LMS and ty97 at The Way Station. No fancy drinks, just pints, good company, interesting patrons and surf music. - Krusty Jun 22, 20:18 5
- Good company and good happy hour beer. - ty97 Jun 22, 20:23 1
  - Yup. :-) -- nm - Krusty Jun 22, 20:25
- Good to finally meet you Krusty. I had a fun time. -- nm - LMS Jun 22, 20:21 1
  - :-) Great to meet you as well. - Krusty Jun 22, 20:24
- nice! -- nm - diva Jun 22, 20:20
I'm not sure I'm playing Fables 3 the right way. My warrior princess is turning straight women gay and gay men straight. - David Jun 22, 20:15 1
- Likewise, I was surprised at how progressive the world of Skyrim is with regards to gender and species. -- nm - Reagen Jun 22, 20:17
STIS: I need to buy one of those small folding stool/chair things for a golf tournament I'm attending. Does anyone have a favorite? -- nm - MDH Jun 22, 20:01
Today's field trip was more botanical than archaeological...too tired to title and describe these images tonight. -- (link) - Meg Jun 22, 19:58 [flickr]
30 minutes in to SyFy's Sinbad...it's just not that good. - Stephen Jun 22, 19:52 1
- true -- nm - peglegpete Jun 22, 20:02
How was that not tripping?!? ugh -- nm - JaxSean Jun 22, 19:51 1
- that waas extremely quick in real time - Reagen Jun 22, 19:53
hawks!!!!!!!!! -- nm - dogbert Jun 22, 19:51
Elves!! All the hype about Wallenda crossing the Grand Canyon when he is, in fact, crossing the Little Colorado River outside of the Canyon. - Meg Jun 22, 19:35 2
- Who cares? It's still 1500 feet up and 1500 feet long. -- nm - zork Jun 22, 20:15 1
  - Oh, no argument about that.... -- nm - Meg Jun 22, 20:24
This picture is everything: "In Savannah, Many Defend Paula Deen From Critics" -- (link) - MDH Jun 22, 19:11 36
- HAHA! Look, there's some fat people in line at Deen's restaurant! HAHA! -- nm - Stephen Jun 22, 19:48 3
  - fat *racist* people -- nm - charlie Jun 22, 20:20 2
    - I'm sure Nicole T. Green would take exception to that characterization. .. -- nm - Stephen Jun 22, 20:22 1
      - nobody should be apologizing for Paula Deen, no matter what their skin color -- nm - charlie Jun 22, 20:24
- This got me looking up her English Peas recipe again -- (link) - amoxy Jun 22, 19:40
- I worry about the shortage of fat white people in other parts of the south today. -- nm - David Jun 22, 19:27 14
  - Yeah, I'm generally not cool with bagging on people for their weight, but there does seem to be an uncoincidental theme in that pic. nm - ralph wiggum Jun 22, 19:30 13
    - You could take a picture like that in front of any restaurant in the country... -- nm - Stephen Jun 22, 19:49 12
      - This would be a fun group project for tomorrow. Everyone should take a picture of their brunch crowd. -- nm - David Jun 22, 20:12
      - No you can't. In fact, the number of restaurants you can do that at are far and few between. -- nm - MDH Jun 22, 20:00 10
        
        I think you and Stephen are thinking of different restaurants -- nm - Roger More Jun 22, 20:02 9
        
        I think he's missing the point entirely... -- nm - Stephen Jun 22, 20:05 8
        
        I'm not at all. I don't like ripping on overweight people, (it runs in my family), but it just shows everything about Paula Deen's unhealthy cooking. - MDH Jun 22, 20:09 7
        
        And you think it's only in front of Deen's restaurant that you'd find overweight people? - Stephen Jun 22, 20:11 6
        
        no one said only. But you don't champion yourself as the queen of unhealthy eating without getting some blowback over the consequences. -- nm - Reagen Jun 22, 20:15 3
        
        Ok, but "far and few between" is still ridiculously inaccurate. - Stephen Jun 22, 20:20 2
        
        There are a lot of damn Cracker Barrells. - MDH Jun 22, 20:26
        
        So is "any restaurant in the country". Hyperbole, meet hyperbole. -- nm - Roger More Jun 22, 20:25
        
        Well, not *only*. But it's hardly surprising either. -- nm - Roger More Jun 22, 20:15
        
        FWIW, that picture embodies Sir Mixalot's vision of a better world. - David Jun 22, 20:14
- The use of "pickle" in this keeps throwing me - prayformojo Jun 22, 19:24 2
  - Personally, I wondered if the pickle was battered, wrapped in bacon and deep fried. -- nm - Tim Jun 22, 19:27
  - Couldn't one just eat their way out of a pickle? -- nm - Reagen Jun 22, 19:25
- A picture is worth a thousand...(nm) - amoxy Jun 22, 19:22
- I don't defend her and could care less about her, but I agree with the last three paragraphs. - JaxSean Jun 22, 19:20 2
  - It ultimately comes down to: The Food Network thinks she's a bigger liability than an asset. The south needs to get over itself. -- nm - Reagen Jun 22, 19:24 1
    - Sure. She's also past her prime and doesn't need them, and they don't need her. -- nm - JaxSean Jun 22, 19:42
- and none of them can shop at Abacrombie Fitch! -- nm - peglegpete Jun 22, 19:19
- "She's from another time." She was born after fricking WWII! -- nm - Reagen Jun 22, 19:13 7
  - Right - a lot of us are from another time but we've learned to adapt. Things that were once acceptable are not now! - Meg Jun 22, 19:38 5
    - Now if we could just get you to stop stealing things from the backs of long haul trucks at rest stops. - Mel Profit Jun 22, 19:43 4
      - it's not like she can heave a 60" tv around anymore without help :(( -- nm - peglegpete Jun 22, 20:00
      - you might as well be speaking Swahili to her - Reagen Jun 22, 19:44 2
        
        I'm way more fluent in Zulu..... -- nm - Meg Jun 22, 20:13
        
        you under estimate her, Reagen. She knows. *taps my forehead* she knows. - Mel Profit Jun 22, 19:51
  - but it's Skynnard! -- nm - zork Jun 22, 19:15
When do you flag a sponsored FB post as spam? Seems a friend liked a company 3 days ago and it keeps popping up to the top of my feed. - Meg Jun 22, 18:35 2
- Unfortunately it likely wont do any good. I flag every advertising post in my feed and they keep coming back. -- nm - Stephen Jun 22, 20:07
- surely - zork Jun 22, 18:37

optical illusion dance -- (link) - zork Jun 22, 17:54 [youtube] 3
- The weirdest part may be the background "movement". -- nm - Spawn Jun 22, 18:22 2
  - it was weird because at first I was focused on the true bodies of the dancers and so... - Mel Profit Jun 22, 18:25 1
    - Agreed. But then I started noticing the backgorund "jumping". That never made any sense. -- nm - Spawn Jun 22, 18:27
