A side comment: I have another close Friend on FB who specifically says on her Profile she limits her Frriends to 99. The thing is, I see her adding - con_carne has class tonight Feb 19, 10:40 4

- See below. Be sure to laugh at David's grade for Blades of Glory. nm - Dignan Feb 19, 10:41 6
  - I'll say it now - I enjoyed Blades of Glory. It was ridiculous, but still funny to me -- nm - Roger More Feb 19, 10:49 1
    - A+ funny? nm - Dignan Feb 19, 10:51
  - He's a peacock lover -- nm - CQ Feb 19, 10:44

- They'll regret that. -- nm - Don Homer Feb 19, 10:40 7

Sorry, do we have an oscar challenge site we are using? - ty97 Feb 19, 10:26 7
- Yahoo used to have one, do they not anymore? -- nm - Gwaahjo Feb 19, 10:30 4
  - Not for a few years now. -- nm - JaxSean Feb 19, 10:31 3
    - we could do a shared google spreadsheet and just lock it when the show starts -- nm - Gwaahjo Feb 19, 10:33 2
      - yup, that's what I asked for below. :) - JaxSean Feb 19, 10:35 1

Irish police finally track down Ireland's worst driver, and it's not who they thought. -- (link) - loosilu Feb 19, 10:26
Is this like a "too soon" for people who just started dating? - con_carne has class tonight Feb 19, 10:24 30
- Thx all! I was just curious -- nm - con_carne has class tonight Feb 19, 10:37
- you should mandy-rule on FB: I only friend people after I've hung out with them meaningfully *twice.* -- nm - the ides of march love mandy lane Feb 19, 10:30 6
  - When did we hang out? -- nm - amoxy Feb 19, 10:34 2
    - I'm more than willing to unfriend you if you're complaining! (prospective students and STers are my exceptions.) -- nm - the ides of march love mandy lane Feb 19, 10:41
    - Hee. I think each ST board counts as one in-person "hang out" :) -- nm - con_carne has class tonight Feb 19, 10:35
  - is that like intense cuddling? -- nm - loosilu Feb 19, 10:31
  - "Twice", yes I do that. (Did I steal this rule from you? It's a nice rule of thumb) -- nm - con_carne has class tonight Feb 19, 10:31 1
    - it's awesome. people make fun all the time. my friend mike will leave a room and come back in to meet someone a second time so he can friend them. - the ides of march love mandy lane Feb 19, 10:42
- doesn't seem weird to me. -- nm - loosilu Feb 19, 10:28
- hmmm...I wouldn't have a problem just friending him, if it's someone I've been introduced to, and have a reasonable expectation - znufrii, scoreless Feb 19, 10:27
- Yeah, too soon. -- nm - The Calico Cat Coalition Feb 19, 10:26
- sounds like something I would do. So its a bad idea -- nm - Redmond on my phone Feb 19, 10:26
- It's a Facebook friend. Is that even important enough to qualify as "too soon"? -- nm - TFox Feb 19, 10:26 6
  - I do place some import in who I friend, yes. I admit, that's more thought than a lot of people put into it. - con_carne has class tonight Feb 19, 10:30 5
    - Yeah, but if I question one, it usually means it should just be an instant decline. -- nm - TFox Feb 19, 10:32
    - it would be completely different if he were friending me - znufrii, scoreless Feb 19, 10:31 3
      - Exactly. It's a different sitch than I'm used to seeing, that's why I ask y'all -- nm - con_carne has class tonight Feb 19, 10:32 2
        
        I'd just wait it out for a bit. you'll either hang out with him again, or he'll take the initiative to friend you - znufrii, scoreless Feb 19, 10:35 1
        
        Oh snap. That's right, he can do it too. Thx -- nm - con_carne has class tonight Feb 19, 10:36
- Ammendment 1 to Rule 1: Do not friend boyfriends/girlfriends of friends of yours -- nm - oblique Feb 19, 10:25 10
  - what about friends of an ex-girlfriend? - mafic Feb 19, 10:38 5
    - Ex-girlfriends should not be friended. There is a statute of limitations on this that can also be overturned by the seriousness of the ex-relationship - oblique Feb 19, 10:41 2
      - you were engaged to a dude?? -- nm - loosilu Feb 19, 10:42 1
        
        only one -- nm - oblique Feb 19, 10:42
    - one reason why not: You'll get unexpected updates about the ex. -- nm - loosilu Feb 19, 10:38 1
      - yeah, but I'll get those anyway. (mutual friends, plus small industry, kind of can't help it) -- nm - mafic Feb 19, 10:43
  - It's a wonder you have any friends on Facebook -- nm - amoxy Feb 19, 10:27 3
    - Personally, I tend to agree with kilbo's rules. Though not as strictly as he's making them seem :) -- nm - con_carne has class tonight Feb 19, 10:33
    - Facebook should have a "shun" feature so I could use it on you - oblique Feb 19, 10:28 1
      - You could never do that, you love me too much - amoxy Feb 19, 10:28
I love our little house. One of the coolest things we have is our basin kitchen sink. It's deep and all big and awesome. I never had one EVER. So cool -- nm - CQ Feb 19, 10:23 1
- I hope I will be able to own a home soon. -- nm - lileve Feb 19, 10:39
oh no. someone on a conference call just said "can't touch that" - ty97 Feb 19, 10:22 2
- I hope you got up and shaked your booty after he said that -- nm - amoxy Feb 19, 10:22 1
  - I almost started laughing. Not being on mute, that would be bad. -- nm - ty97 Feb 19, 10:23
ty97 dissed Five Guys? DTM. -- nm - loosilu Feb 19, 10:21 3
- saying it's "good" is dissing? - ty97 Feb 19, 10:22 2
  - yes. yes it is. -- nm - loosilu Feb 19, 10:24 1
    - I just didn't find it'amazing' like lots of people. But to be fair - ty97 Feb 19, 10:25
I hate when you can't even get close to the word for Spell check to fix it for you - amoxy Feb 19, 10:20

- I'm sure someone will et around to opening one downtown soon enough. -- nm - znufrii, scoreless Feb 19, 10:21
Someone told the me that government is going after all those people who drove on a newly opened motorway for the first time and didn't bother paying - Loyola Feb 19, 10:19 1
- the yellow brick road? -- nm - lileve Feb 19, 10:20
Nintendo DSi up for pre-order on Amazon -- (link) - oblique Feb 19, 10:19 10
- keep using annoying friendcodes! -- nm - lileve Feb 19, 10:21
- I really don't see this as a massive upgrade over the DS lite. -- nm - TFox Feb 19, 10:20 8
  - Well since the price isn't a massive increase, you're paying a little more for things like a camera, SD slot, etc. -- nm - oblique Feb 19, 10:21 7
    - I just don't see the point of em. I don't know why I'd need a camera in my DS. - TFox Feb 19, 10:24 6
      - I think with the Opera browser and improved wireless, Nintendo is trying to make the DS more like a PDA. -- nm - Inigo Feb 19, 10:29 3
        
        Thats what people were doing with hte R4 chip. Nintendo is trying to stop that with their own verson they can make money off of. -- nm - lileve Feb 19, 10:33 2
        
        Make money? Of course they are. But I fail to see how coming out with the DSi is stopping anyone from a modding a DS Lite. -- nm - Inigo Feb 19, 10:37 1
        
        It won't. But there is still a market of people who don't Mod and will buy it. The bigger screen is the sell for me. -- nm - lileve Feb 19, 10:45
      - Because you're not 13 anymore -- nm - oblique Feb 19, 10:24 1
        
        This is true. I am not the target market. -- nm - TFox Feb 19, 10:28

  - I'm not a fan of biopics being 'original' though....I just don't think making a movie about a guy from the 1970's - Will Hunting Feb 19, 10:32
- Wall-E -- nm - znufrii, scoreless Feb 19, 10:19
Oh my god Woot threw a crappy movie in with 2 excellent movies. - JaxSean Feb 19, 10:17
Blades of Glory, Superbad, and Team America for $11. Maybe the worst deal Woot has ever run. -- nm - TFox Feb 19, 10:17 19
- I'm smrt -- nm - ty97 Feb 19, 10:41
- Superbad and Team America are worth $5.50 each. Throw out Blades of Glory. - JaxSean Feb 19, 10:18
- Yeah, seriously. Team America can be had for much cheaper and who only buys 2 coasters? -- nm - Will Hunting Feb 19, 10:18
- C+, B-, B. nm - Dignan Feb 19, 10:18 11
  - B-, A, A+ -- nm - Dr.Vermin Feb 19, 10:40

    - An A+ for Blades of Glory?? That's David level cra...never mind. nm - Dignan Feb 19, 10:34 1
      - It doesn't get any better than Blades of Glory? *shoots self* -- nm - znufrii, scoreless Feb 19, 10:40
    - You hate Elf, but love Blades of Glory? -- nm - Will Hunting Feb 19, 10:33 3
      - Like all sane people. -- nm - David Feb 19, 10:43 2
        
        If you're using this as your basis of your sanity, all is explained. -- nm - Will Hunting Feb 19, 10:44 1

  - You can have the results saved in a hidden spreadsheet. -- nm - psilotum Feb 19, 10:18 3
    - Yup. I just can't access Docs from work, and I'll be out tonight and all day Saturday. No time. -- nm - JaxSean Feb 19, 10:20 2
      - [deleted]
      - I can't do it today either. I'm out. -- nm - psilotum Feb 19, 10:23
I'm just surprised that David doesn't buy his fries directly from France. nm - Dignan Feb 19, 10:16 1
