ST PIRR Poll: I just bought fish and chips for lunch. How much did I pay? - Strongbad Nov 6, 09:53 34
- a week or two ago I was trying to figure out where I'd be able to get fish and chips near my office and failed. - zork Nov 6, 10:02
- $12. -- nm - Ender Nov 6, 10:00
- $15 -- nm - Roger More Nov 6, 09:55 24
  - I was figuring maybe this but wasn't sure which type of fish and how many pieces -- nm - zork Nov 6, 10:00
  - *DING DING DING* - Strongbad Nov 6, 09:57 22
    - Yeah, it's always expensive. But fresh fish is relatively expensive and it uses a wackload of oil. -- nm - Roger More Nov 6, 10:07
    - ok wait ... how many filets are they including ... 'cause we do have a place here where 3 filets of whitefish - plus chips - coleslaw and 2 hushpuppie - JenBro Nov 6, 10:00 5
      - 1, and they claim it's "fresh cod" -- nm - Strongbad Nov 6, 10:07
      - You live right on a big lake. -- nm - Roger More Nov 6, 10:06 3
        
        :) several actually - very spoiled when it comes to fresh lake fish - Whitefish and Perch - both pan and deep fried - are my favorites. -- nm - JenBro Nov 6, 10:07
        
        you can't EAT the fish from that lake!!!! -- nm - groiny Nov 6, 10:07 1
        
        ? -- nm - JenBro Nov 6, 10:08
    - Are you in London? If not, than, WTF?! -- nm - ty97 Nov 6, 09:59 12
      - He could have bought a house in Detroit for that! -- nm - zork Nov 6, 10:05
      - Given a choice between a $12.50 burger and $15 fish and chips, I chose the latter. - Strongbad Nov 6, 10:01 6
        
        12.50 burger? When did you move out of Atlanta?! -- nm - ty97 Nov 6, 10:03 1
        
        I know! -- nm - Strongbad Nov 6, 10:16
        
        what kind of fish was it? -- nm - Diva Nov 6, 10:02 3
        
        I'm looking at their menu online to find out. I don't remember. -- nm - Strongbad Nov 6, 10:05 2
        
        I would venture to guess Cod. nm -- nm - groiny Nov 6, 10:06 1
        
        correct. -- nm - Strongbad Nov 6, 10:08
      - that's about right for around here -- nm - decline Nov 6, 10:01
      - fish n chips can run up to about 18 bucks here. I can't stand it. -- nm - Diva Nov 6, 10:00
      - I am OK with the price as long as it is good fish, and a decent portion of it. nm -- nm - groiny Nov 6, 10:00 1
        
        ik, r? imma want a nice long piece of haddock or cod. not a bunch of chopped up pieces of tilapia. -- nm - Diva Nov 6, 10:01
    - Was it at least tasty? -- nm - amoxy Nov 6, 09:59 1
      - It was fairly good. - Strongbad Nov 6, 10:00
- 11.99. nm -- nm - groiny Nov 6, 09:55
- 8.95 -- nm - znufrii Nov 6, 09:55
- $7.95 (no drink right?) -- nm - JenBro Nov 6, 09:54 1
  - assume no drink -- nm - Strongbad Nov 6, 09:55
- [deleted]
- (without including tax/tip) -- nm - Strongbad Nov 6, 09:53

- I'm not exactly surprised. We've seen examples of this in society before. - ty97 Nov 6, 10:02
- wow. -- nm - znufrii Nov 6, 09:56
- This is begging to be made into a movie. -- nm - Inigo Nov 6, 09:55 4
  - [deleted] 2
    - Tom Hardy for Richie Incognito. - Inigo Nov 6, 10:03 1
      - Brad William Henke for Richie Incognito. James Woods for Philbin. Blind Side from 'Blind Side' for Jonathan Martin. - Diva Nov 6, 10:07

This article is pretty spot on: "What No One Tells You About Losing Lots of Weight" -- (link) - ty97 Nov 6, 09:39 4
- yikes, how fast did she lose that weight? nm -- nm - groiny Nov 6, 09:45 3
  - would speed have much to do with it though? she's a fairly small framed girl - and even though I get the disappointment - she's very pretty - face - - JenBro Nov 6, 10:05 2
    - the skin folds are such seem to be consistant with quick weight loss. - groiny Nov 6, 10:09
    - Speed can be one factor in your skin keeping up, but wit how much weight she lost, there was always going to be loose skin / stretch marks. -- nm - ty97 Nov 6, 10:09
this is a great halloween costume idea -- (link) - znufrii Nov 6, 09:36 5

- So that leaves what? Their disc by mail service? -- nm - Mop (200 lbs) Nov 6, 09:27
- [deleted]
- they still have stores? -- nm - znufrii Nov 6, 09:26 4
  - the last one here I know of just closed last week. - groiny Nov 6, 09:29
  - they are technically classifying those guys sitting on street corners selling used DVDs as stores -- nm - zork Nov 6, 09:27
  - Oh yeah. -- nm - Spawn Nov 6, 09:26 1
    - Yeah. We still have one around here. -- nm - Mop (200 lbs) Nov 6, 09:28

  - Something like this? -- (link) - mara Nov 6, 10:02 1
    - I would probably be snobby and only buy the Silpat brand from France. I've heard bad stuff about the cheaper knockoffs from China. -- nm - Diva Nov 6, 10:09
  - I use these too - they work well, though things can still burn if you don't have a good baking sheet. -- nm - Roger More Nov 6, 09:38
  - I'm not stalking this year, but a Berymandered amazon link to this would be appreciated -- nm - con_carne Nov 6, 09:37
  - that's awesome. -- nm - Diva Nov 6, 09:30

- I'll be catching up tonight...and will post my thoughts tomorrow, prior to the vote reveal. -- nm - Jim Nov 6, 09:17
Hayden Christensen has a clothing line. I don't hate it and the prices are not outrageous -- (link) - zork Nov 6, 09:12 7
- The salesman looked like a "Mumford and Son" so he must have known about fashion. -- nm - Mop (200 lbs) Nov 6, 09:16
- Suggested slogan: buy this stuff or I will have to go back to acting. -- nm - David Nov 6, 09:13 5
  - sounds like the deal he got on SW paraphernalia means he'll never have to anyway -- nm - zork Nov 6, 09:14 4
    - There is a God. -- nm - David Nov 6, 09:15 3
      - never *have to. He *could* still try, in fact, IMDB has four current projects for him -- nm - zork Nov 6, 09:19 2
        
        But his starbond is about 3-4 months away from dead delisting on HSX -- nm - Roger More Nov 6, 09:26 1
        
        On what? -- nm - Spawn Nov 6, 09:28
You belong among the wild flowers. -- nm - David Nov 6, 09:09
So im trying to figure out how in the hell have I ended up liking Roar by Katy Perry -- nm - eag Nov 6, 09:08 16
- This viral vid might not have hurt -- (link) - con_carne Nov 6, 09:29 [youtube]
- I heard it for the first time, or it hit my consciousness for the first time, while hanging out at my barber's. It's a harmless song but that's about - Mel Profit Nov 6, 09:19 4
  - Poker Face is by far my favorite Lady GaGA song - eag Nov 6, 09:27 3
    - If I had to choose I'd pick Gaga. - Mel Profit Nov 6, 09:41
    - I have yet to hear a GaGa song I like. -- nm - Spawn Nov 6, 09:29 1
      - Poker Face, Paparazzi and Just Dance are all solid songs. nm -- nm - groiny Nov 6, 09:41
- It's a really catchy song. -- nm - Jim Nov 6, 09:16 7
  - It's growing on me, but it's still my least favorite song of hers in years. -- nm - Will Hunting Nov 6, 09:17 6
    - Weird, it's easily my favorite of hers. I find her career odd, considering I Kissed a Girl really was a 1 hit wonder song waiting to happen. - Jim Nov 6, 09:18 5
      - I was shockingly entertained by the Part of Me documentary onher. nm -- nm - groiny Nov 6, 09:46
      - The last album (Teenage Dream?) is one of those freakish collections that aren't meaningful music but is so damn catchy. -- nm - Will Hunting Nov 6, 09:19 2
        
        And I still say her voice does not match her look at all. -- nm - Jim Nov 6, 09:20 1
        
        What's the vocal match for BOOBS, BOOBS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! -- nm - Will Hunting Nov 6, 09:21
      - She is the cover story in EW and while looking at that on the table this morning it occured to me she really has been around and big for a while, now. -- nm - Spawn Nov 6, 09:19
- boobs. -- nm - Diva Nov 6, 09:11 1
  - Im not crazy about all her songs - eag Nov 6, 09:15
Is this for bragging or for parents to put on their daughters like a chastity belt? -- (link) - zork Nov 6, 09:07 1
- I saw an IndieGoGo this week for pants and underwear that are nearly impossible to pull off. - Mop (200 lbs) Nov 6, 09:14
heh. my boss is on vacation (in France at the moment) and emailed to ask me to torrent some episodes of Falling Skies season 3. Apparently they only - zork Nov 6, 08:58 17
- Amazon Prime has it for free if he subscribes and it isn't blacked out. - David Nov 6, 09:11 8
  - is Prime available to Canadians yet? -- nm - zork Nov 6, 09:13 7
    - Hmm, started this year but no video on demand, nor lending library, but still charging the same $79. He also probably couldn't use it out of the count - zork Nov 6, 09:26 6
      - Yeah, but that's Canadian dollars, that's only like 76 US dollars. -- nm - Ender Nov 6, 09:34 1
        
        well, that's different. Rob Ford *is* saving me money! Keep him in office! -- nm - zork Nov 6, 09:35
      - I just buy enough to get the free shipping. Why spend $79 for it? -- nm - Beaker Nov 6, 09:27 3
        
        With Prime it shows up at your doors in 2 days for the same price, rather than a week and a half. -- nm - Ender Nov 6, 09:38 2
        
        it's just books and movies, I can wait -- nm - Beaker Nov 6, 09:39 1
        
        With free 2 day shipping it quickly becomes more than just books and movies. - Ender Nov 6, 10:03
- Shouldn't he be out having fun? -- nm - Roger More Nov 6, 09:00 7
  - for "at night" so I guess he's not finding any fun after the sun goes down -- nm - zork Nov 6, 09:02 6
    - Where is he? -- nm - Roger More Nov 6, 09:03 5
      - not sure but he likes military stuff so if he could be somewhere that there is nothing to see at night. - zork Nov 6, 09:08 4
        
        Ah, I'd probably only be able to suggest stuff he knows already then -- nm - Roger More Nov 6, 09:13 3
        
        he did mention something about probably going to Chartres or Rheims (I forget which) -- nm - zork Nov 6, 09:16 2
        
        Ha! I've been to both, and can't think of fun things to do in either, besides the obvious cathedrals and champagne - Roger More Nov 6, 09:33 1
        
        he mentioned it as going to the cathedral -- nm - zork Nov 6, 09:34

    - not like - Capstern Nov 6, 09:13
  - (spoiler) - Capstern Nov 6, 09:10 2
    - This is definitely a consideration. -- nm - Mop (200 lbs) Nov 6, 09:14
    - I like it too(spoilers) - eag Nov 6, 09:14
Mel, I just found the poster you need to get for Diva -- (link) - Remlik Nov 6, 08:52 5
- that's...something. -- nm - Mel Profit Nov 6, 09:16
- Oh my gawd! Lol -- nm - Epiphany Nov 6, 09:06
- blocked here. this isn't a Thor fathead is it? (heh-heh...) -- nm - Diva Nov 6, 08:57 2
  - I'll tag you on FB with it...very amusing.... -- nm - Remlik Nov 6, 09:02 1
    - Love it! *chuckling* -- nm - Diva Nov 6, 09:09
