        How many usually before you pass out? -- nm - nubby Feb 22, 18:13 2
        
        Never gotten that far. I rarely drink now. I was up to four pints and feeling decent but now 1.5 gets me pretty buzzed and nonchalant. -- nm - lileve Feb 22, 18:15

        have=asked -- nm - lileve Feb 22, 18:15
        
        Ask if you can keep it and sell it on Ebay! -- nm - Qale Feb 22, 18:14
- I like the way they're presenting them too. Makes me wonder if screen writing, if I can get a handle on it, is actually easier than novel writing. -- nm - Qale Feb 22, 18:01 4
  - yes and no - alpine misanthrope Feb 22, 18:06 3
    - Doing more with less makes me timid, but I really ought to give it a shot and practice or something. -- nm - Qale Feb 22, 18:11 2

  - Conveying sarcasm on the internet takes skills. -- nm - Qale Feb 22, 18:05 5
    - As does reading it. -- nm - lileve Feb 22, 18:06 4
      - If you want to be read well, you must write well. -- nm - Qale Feb 22, 18:09 3
        
        Try telling that to Dan Brown. -- nm - nubby Feb 22, 18:10 1
        
        Dear Dan Brown... your writing style has become staggeringly, clumsily, thoughtlessly, almost ingeniously bad. Signed Geoffrey Pullum -- nm - Qale Feb 22, 18:13
        
        Agreed. -- nm - lileve Feb 22, 18:09
  - ...and I'm finishing my first beer. -- nm - lileve Feb 22, 18:03

- Doesn't it always? -- nm - Cuzzin Todd Feb 22, 17:56 3
  - Absolutely. -- nm - Qale Feb 22, 17:56 2
    - No, most of the time it's way too rushed. -- nm - Trish Feb 22, 17:57 1
      - I think it's generally 3.5 hours no? -- nm - Qale Feb 22, 18:01
This whole show has a whole Conan O'Brien feel to me. Feels like a nighttime talk show set. -- nm - kelly Feb 22, 17:53 2

I have an Uncle working at the Oscars tonight. Here are 4 pics of the red carpet. - Redmond Feb 22, 17:48 [flickr] 1

Why is the dysfunctional brother of Ryan from the OC in the front row at the Oscars? Who is he with? -- nm - Gwaahjo Feb 22, 17:47

OK srsly? (spoilers) - Buzz Feb 22, 17:45 1

If this is how they'll do all the awards, i'll get to see the Best Pic live at 4am eastern - Will Hunting Feb 22, 17:45 2
- i like it, as long as they are dropping a lot of the who cares awards from the telecast -- nm - Stewie Feb 22, 17:47
- It's a great idea, but it's failing in execution. -- nm - nubby Feb 22, 17:46
zzzzzzzz. -- nm - nubby Feb 22, 17:45
This is going to take FOREVER -- nm - Dano Feb 22, 17:44

I'm sorry, but AJOLI is looking like the most expensive hooker at the Oscars. -- nm - Mop Feb 22, 17:40 4
- insane. -- nm - loosilu Feb 22, 17:42 3
  - What, you think she wouldn't draw top dollar? -- nm - Todd Manning Feb 22, 17:44
  - You're right. There were surely some classier hookers there. -- nm - Mop Feb 22, 17:44 1
    - those earrings must be half a mil. -- nm - loosilu Feb 22, 17:44
What the hell is PSHOF wearing?! -- nm - nubby Feb 22, 17:39
For Mop: corset girl is Melissa George. -- nm - loosilu Feb 22, 17:38 1
- Thank you much! -- nm - Mop Feb 22, 17:39
Every time I see Seth Rogen, he's a little bit skinnier. -- nm - Mop Feb 22, 17:36 2
- maybe he pissed off a gypsy? -- nm - Beaker Feb 22, 17:43
- The Curious Case of Seth Rogen -- nm - Max Feb 22, 17:39

- thought it started poorly, but I liked it. -- nm - mafic Feb 22, 17:39
- Loved the opening -- nm - Dano Feb 22, 17:38 4
  - Word. -- nm - Jim Feb 22, 17:42
  - We're not watching the Amazing Race. -- nm - Mop Feb 22, 17:41
  - No no no. Hugh's only job is to kill people and get naked. That was tragic. -- nm - Qale Feb 22, 17:40
  - spoiler - nubby Feb 22, 17:40
- WOOHOO!!! -- nm - Mop Feb 22, 17:38
- Huh...we like it. It's original. -- nm - kelly Feb 22, 17:38 1
  - Well Billy Crystal opened with a musical number the year Titanic won. Not really original, but it's originally horrible. -- nm - Redmond Feb 22, 17:39
- If the begging is any indication. I agree. Awful opening -- nm - Redmond Feb 22, 17:37 1
  - sweded! -- nm - JaxSean Feb 22, 17:38
- I'm not drinking. I don't have any alcohol at the house. Blue laws prevent me from buying any today. I'm so screwed. -- nm - Qale Feb 22, 17:37
Miley Cyrus needs a new stylist. She looked like she was wearing a half deflated balloon. -- nm - Trish Feb 22, 17:36
spoiler - nubby Feb 22, 17:34
Angie appears to be wearing *huge* emerald earrings. wonder what they're worth. -- nm - loosilu Feb 22, 17:31
You know what we just don't have enough of? Pictures of Miley Cyrus with her hands on her hips. - Mop Feb 22, 17:30
The accountants are adorable. -- nm - Trish Feb 22, 17:29 1
- we always are! -- nm - Beaker Feb 22, 17:43
Not liking Winslet's outfit or hair. too bad. -- nm - loosilu Feb 22, 17:25 11
- she looks good in a 'low key' sort of way -- nm - peglegpete Feb 22, 17:29
- Kate's looking surprisingly old. -- nm - Mop Feb 22, 17:28 4
  - You are certifiably in-sane. What, she hit her 30s and now you're ready to throw her on the trash heap? -- nm - Trish Feb 22, 17:30 3
    - I think it's the hair, again. kinda aging. -- nm - loosilu Feb 22, 17:32 2
      - No, that's not it. There were some overtly obvious wrinkles in her forehead. Wait, then maybe it was the hair. - Mop Feb 22, 17:35 1
        
        I think that's a makeup issue. they put bronzer on her and it might have settled. -- nm - loosilu Feb 22, 17:40
- The dress and jewels were good, but the hair was kinda weird. - Trish Feb 22, 17:27 1
  - agreed, I think the hair is distracting me. -- nm - loosilu Feb 22, 17:29
- I thought she looked good. -- nm - Remlik Feb 22, 17:26 2
  - Word. And any suggestion otherwise is either jealousy or insanity. -- nm - Jim Feb 22, 17:29
  - the hair is weird, and compared to the purple GG outfit, not so good. -- nm - loosilu Feb 22, 17:27
Who's the skinny blonde with the corseted white dress? I thought maybe Kidman but she looked way yougn. -- nm - Mop Feb 22, 17:24 8
- not someone I recognize. -- nm - loosilu Feb 22, 17:25 7
  - I'm not finding her in the photo archives. She must not have been anyone. -- nm - Mop Feb 22, 17:28
  - Viola Davis in that gold dress is the epitome of what I think someone going to the oscars should look like. - Trish Feb 22, 17:26 5
    - I've only had the red carpet ceremony on for 10 or so minutes, but so far Viola was the only celeb that has made me go "wow." -- nm - kelly Feb 22, 17:28
    - agreed. Anne's dress is amazing up close, but with her complexion I don't like her in white. -- nm - loosilu Feb 22, 17:27 2
      - Anne's dress is awesome, I love the simplicity (if you can call a million silver/white beads simple) but it doesn't work on her. -- nm - Trish Feb 22, 17:33
      - Liking Anne. Not liking Amy Adams. -- nm - Mop Feb 22, 17:32
    - she did look fantastic - they really dressed her down in Doubt -- nm - Epiphany Feb 22, 17:27
Robert Downey Jr. is looking *fine* - Trish Feb 22, 17:24
