    - My family called it gravy all the time. That's a huge argument in my family and with a lot of Italian-Americans. I would give it a try, if they're - Krusty May 24, 10:36 2
      - The word 'gravy' is used a lot in some types of South Asian cooking as well. It's basically curry. - Roger More May 24, 10:44
      - a lot of old world sauces were high in fat content, often using ribs for both the fat and broth flavor so gravy is appropriate - zeitgeist May 24, 10:44

SLACK... - Mel Profit May 24, 07:16 6
- The_Game is in no position to make demands of us. I'd tell him to fuck off if he warranted a response at all. -- nm - Mop on iPad Air May 24, 10:10
- I said ignore at first, but I don't mind telling him that if they are aware of any SLACK leechers to let us know so we can deal with them -- nm - Beaker May 24, 07:17 4
  - I wouldn't even do that... - Mel Profit May 24, 07:23 3

  - Sure, why would you mention them, everybody already knew they existed! -- nm - Ender May 24, 09:16 2
    - (Though the Chinese and Europeans totally did mention them. DRAGONS! -- nm - Ender May 24, 09:20 1

Hmm something I just noticed about the X-Men franchise - Buzz May 24, 03:44
Oh sonofa....finally catching up on Justified, watching the season finale...and the recording stops before the episode is over! - IrishStephen May 24, 02:04 13
- yeah...we had the same problem during the season. I wanted to cut a bitch. -- nm - Mel Profit May 24, 08:09 1
  - We also had this problem with The Americans, but luckily we were keeping fairly current with it, and they reaired episodes. -- nm - IrishStephen May 24, 08:12
- Not sure about you view on sites like this but.... - Under the Influence May 24, 06:57 1
  - Thanks, I'll just d/l the ep from iTunes, and buy the entire season at some point. -- nm - IrishStephen May 24, 08:18
- That sucks. We had been saving episodes and when we finally went to watch, found the DVR must have run out of room at one point - JaxSean May 24, 05:07 7
  - What annoys me with DirecTv is that their default for recording series seems to be to save just 5, so if you don't remember to change it, and you're - IrishStephen May 24, 08:10 3
    - You can change it so the default is to save every episode. - Krusty May 24, 08:34 2
      - Really? I did not know that; I thought you had to adjust it for each series being recorded. - IrishStephen May 24, 09:15 1
        
        Yeah. When I realized that it was a nice find. So much easier than doing it for each separate recording. -- nm - Krusty May 24, 11:07
  - That sucks for you too. I've had to do the scramble to delete old shows before it deleted things I actually wanted to watch. - Krusty May 24, 06:20 2
    - That would make me hate DirecTV. heh -- nm - JaxSean May 24, 06:37 1
      - If my other option was better I'd switch in a second but Time Warner really sucks. -- nm - Krusty May 24, 06:43
- Oof -- nm - Pippy May 24, 02:14
Seth Farland on Fallon, reading awful review headlines, so they really are marketing this film as So Bad it Might Be Good to See How Bad It IS -- nm - zeitgeist May 24, 00:24 5
- Million Ways to Die could be the Hard R comedy of the summer if all the funny stuff isn't in the clips. -- nm - Qale May 24, 00:33 3
  - There's funny stuff in the clips? - Cuzzin Todd May 24, 07:00 2
    - I'm with you. Nothing looks funny and I said it before but the acting looks awful. - Krusty May 24, 07:33 1
      - I'm not sure in over the top comedies, acting is really the focus. -- nm - Qale May 24, 08:52
- I don't see any reviews, on rotten tomatoes, yet. But, people LOVE stupid comedies...I think it'll still do pretty well -- nm - Flavorize May 24, 00:27

  - in a bizarre twist of fate, its not that bad here, we have a few stars viewable in the haze -- nm - zeitgeist May 23, 23:34 2
    - the problem is, what counts as a meteor is zzzit, a slight streak, as fast as a scratch during a movie, not a flaming blow torch rocketing across the - zeitgeist May 23, 23:38 1
      - Well said. -- nm - Beryllium May 23, 23:39
