  - Especially if he loses to Penn. nmbmud - secretslacker Feb 22, 12:47 35
    - Why so serious? More importantly, why bring it here? -- nm - Qale Feb 22, 12:50 34
      - Because people need to learn to stay out of other's fights... you especially. nmbQale - secretslacker Feb 22, 12:52 33
        
        I'm not getting involvdd in a fight, merely suggesting that HSX movies board fights should stay on HSX movies board. -- nm - Qale Feb 22, 13:12 4
        
        Yes, well maybe if people here didn't do "drive bys" then I wouldn't have to comment to them about it here, hm? -- nm - secretslacker Feb 22, 13:14 2
        
        with all respect, if you bring something here, you can't expect people to stay out of it. -- nm - loosilu Feb 22, 13:37
        
        Not really, you commented about it there. Shouldn't that be enough? (the srsly, not caring who's wrong/right on that fight nt.) -- nm - Qale Feb 22, 13:35
        
        word. -- nm - Reagen Feb 22, 13:13
        
        *ahem* I read this post, as wel as the one directed at mud. - Subversive Feb 22, 12:54 27
        
        Not really... it's just that RazorHawk has generally acted like a complete tool towards me in recent months, pretty much non-stop... - secretslacker Feb 22, 13:04 3
        
        I'm not familiar with the movies board, I literally haven't visited TT in months, I was just speaking about here, on ST. - Subversive Feb 22, 13:08 2
        
        Thanks for the advice, Subversive.. I'm sure I'll be fine. - secretslacker Feb 22, 13:11 1
        
        Coolio. -- nm - Subversive Feb 22, 13:12
        
        The "nmb" has always meant, to me, that info is unlikely to be of interest to anyone else, not "everyone else keep out" -- nm - TWuG Feb 22, 13:01 22
        
        "no message but (for) PERSON" - secretslacker Feb 22, 13:06 8
        
        Again, not to start a fight, but the only part of that IM I agree with is the last line. - Subversive Feb 22, 13:09
        
        if you want a private conversation, don't use a public forum -- nm - Reagen Feb 22, 13:09 6
        
        Yes, I realize that... which is why "nmbXXX" is just a bit of silliness. - secretslacker Feb 22, 13:13 1
        
        your naveity is refreshing. -- nm - Reagen Feb 22, 13:14
        
        Damn you! - Subversive Feb 22, 13:10 2
        
        *shakes fist* -- nm - Reagen Feb 22, 13:13 1
        
        I gave up halfway through the second, It was such a sloppy game I was getting super cranky at the Flames. - Subversive Feb 22, 13:21
        
        *ding* -- nm - TWuG Feb 22, 13:09
        
        Me, too. I usually read them. -- nm - mara Feb 22, 13:03 12
        
        Yup. -- nm - znufrii Feb 22, 13:04 11
        
        I do, too... so does everybody... but if you respond then you're butting in. :) -- nm - secretslacker Feb 22, 13:06 10
        
        and is that a problem? :) -- nm - znufrii Feb 22, 13:13
        
        In a sense, I actually agree with this. But I also think it's a "butting in" instance that can't legitimately be criticized. -- nm - mara Feb 22, 13:12 8
        
        I guess that depends on who does it and how they do it... - secretslacker Feb 22, 13:17 7
        
        TINY TYPE!!!! It's so adorable!!!! -- nm - secretslacker Feb 22, 13:18 6
        
        You can actually make it so it doesn't do that if you unclick the option in the Change Info link at the top of the page. -- nm - Qale Feb 22, 13:39 3
        
        You ruined ST's cutest feature! - Subversive Feb 22, 13:43 2
        
        You can also in most browsers hold control and upscroll your mouse to make fonts bigger. - Qale Feb 22, 13:46 1
        
        Yeah, but that changes the text size for all sites, not something I'd want to do. - Subversive Feb 22, 13:49
        
        I love how it just takes the steam out of any arguement or conversation that goes on too long. - Subversive Feb 22, 13:20 1
        
        LOL! This is true. Beryllium should get the Nobel Prize for that one. -- nm - secretslacker Feb 22, 13:26
  - yep. Will you need to watch it as well. -- nm - Remlik Feb 22, 12:38
I think my favorite storyline going forward in the next 3-4 years will be the GOP governors schism. - Will Hunting Feb 22, 12:29 5

- i really want to see Jindal turn down $100 million in unemployment insurance right now -- nm - alpine misanthrope Feb 22, 12:32 1
  - Yeah, it's the ultimate gamble. Short-term, it's a loser; if this sinks in the next 18-24 months, he's a genius. - Will Hunting Feb 22, 12:35
Does zonal heating and cooling require multiple furnaces and A/C units? -- nm - Mop Feb 22, 12:28 2
- I think it works by a system of opening and closing vents with thermostats in each room. -- nm - Redmond Feb 22, 12:29 1
  - Correct. Certain systems work better than others. - TWuG Feb 22, 13:00
Freddie Prinze Jr has left the WWE Smackdown Creative team. -- nm - Remlik Feb 22, 12:26 6
- Well that didn't last long. -- nm - Qale Feb 22, 12:28 4
  - yeah he signed with them early summer of last year. -- nm - Remlik Feb 22, 12:39 3
    - If he was behind the genius that is Edge's storylines that's awesome. Though I think it's about time to finally end the Vicki stuff. - Qale Feb 22, 12:51 2
      - EXCUSE ME! -- nm - Tim Feb 22, 12:58 1
        
        EXCUSE ME!!! - Qale Feb 22, 13:38
- It's interesting who you'll see in the unemployment lines these days. -- nm - Mop Feb 22, 12:27

Next time you're downloading a whole season of a tv show you like, download individual episodes rather than the lot together. That way you can watch - Loyola Feb 22, 12:23 4

- How do you enter your predictions? -- nm - secretslacker Feb 22, 12:14 2
  - it seems to be just in the box on the left click predictions and then there are question marks next to every category - J Feb 22, 12:19
  - I figured it out... now just have to figure out how to join the group -- nm - secretslacker Feb 22, 12:18
- thanks -- nm - J Feb 22, 12:13

A question for the lovely ladies of ST: Would you consider it insulting to be compared to a "piglet?" - Cuzzin Todd Feb 22, 12:01 6
- LYC - SM just made this comment cause we just heard this song. I say: John Legend and Andre 3000 can call me whatever they want - Epiphany Feb 22, 13:47
- You have to admit, the noise they make is pretty similar. -- nm - Max Feb 22, 12:19
- like from Winnie the Pooh? Piglet is cute! -- nm - alpine misanthrope Feb 22, 12:16
- I would consider that punch-worthy. -- nm - loosilu Feb 22, 12:12
- that's different from saying *you* giggle like a pigglet, the key words are I'll *make* you -- nm - zeitgeist Feb 22, 12:09
