What started out as a backache a few days ago has migrated into my left butt cheek. -- nm - Dano Mar 8, 16:53 20
- I have found the best way to apply ben-gay to a lower back pain is to use a q-tip - peglegpete Mar 8, 17:16 2
  - Or have a woman squirt some on her tongue and have her lick you all over your sore area -- nm - Redmond Mar 8, 17:21 1
    - I doubt she'll do this with Ben-Gay -- nm - marcel Mar 8, 17:25

        Appendicitis is something so crippling, you'll never mistake it for anything else. -- nm - Qale Mar 8, 17:17 5
        
        It's not necessarily debilitating pain, as I understand it (it certainly can be, but isn't necessarily) -- nm - ty97 Mar 8, 17:25
        
        Though you're talking to someone who broke his neck and didn't go to the doctor until over 24 hours later. -- nm - Dano Mar 8, 17:18 1
        
        Kurt Angle? -- nm - Qale Mar 8, 17:20
        
        the way my doctor described it, if it is and he tapped my abdomen, I'd want to hit him. -- nm - Reagen Mar 8, 17:18 1
        
        It was, wake up feeling a hard pain in my right side of my torso, two hours later emergancy room. -- nm - Qale Mar 8, 17:19

Any grammar bitches on ST today? - Qale Mar 8, 16:01 5
- Use "he" or "my brother." (In the third sentence, the "him" is the object of a prepostion.) -- nm - mara Mar 8, 16:15 1
  - Thanks. I actually changed it to "my twin." -- nm - Qale Mar 8, 16:28
- I agree with loosi. -- nm - ReluctantCynic Mar 8, 16:13
- He is technically correct, but it sounds stiff. I'd go with 'him', especially if it is meant to be conversational. -- nm - loosilu Mar 8, 16:04 1
  - I could fix it completely by changing it to "my brother." -- nm - Qale Mar 8, 16:06
now I know why the movie is called 'watch men' -- nm - marcel Mar 8, 15:51 9
- what was with the walmart smily face thing? -- nm - zeitgeist Mar 8, 17:32

      - huh? not on the IMDB pics. - marcel Mar 8, 16:43 1
        
        my bad mixed them up. -- nm - marcel Mar 8, 16:47
Duke Sucks. -- nm - Stewie Mar 8, 15:25 2
- Annie? -- nm - peglegpete Mar 8, 15:31

Paypal, Ebay, and a 1,200 dollar lesson on why it's hard out there for a pimp. -- (link) - Qale Mar 8, 15:17 4
- Sounds like a mess on all sides - but a seller of designer purses ( hey there Fossil bags going off in 2 hours!) - I say - Epiphany Mar 8, 15:24 3
  - paypal terms have been screwing sellers since day 1. at one time, instead of withdrawing the $1200+, they would freeze your whole account. no matter - peglegpete Mar 8, 15:30
  - I'm so wary of PayPal. I've only used them when absolutely necessary because these horror stories are too common. -- nm - Qale Mar 8, 15:30 1
    - THIS was not a case of buyer fraud, but there have been some outrageous examples... - zeitgeist Mar 8, 17:31
Finally saw Coraline...wow...solid A...did the book justice -- nm - The Calico Cat Coalition Mar 8, 15:16
I hate when the local weather guy says be prepared to go to your safe place. - CovingtonCat Mar 8, 15:10 18
- I also hate it when he says "cyclonic rotation". Kinda sounds dirty. -- nm - CovingtonCat Mar 8, 15:51
- Did you even watch Twister? What you need to do is sink some iron bars deep into the ground, then tie you and your loved ones to them. - Loyola Mar 8, 15:14 16
  - Also if it's dark and cloudy you are safe. But if it there isn't a single cloud in the sky, that's when the tornado comes. -- nm - Redmond Mar 8, 15:23 12
    - I keep tellin' ya tornados do drop out of freakin' nowhere sometimes. -- nm - Qale Mar 8, 15:30 7
      - We've been expecting the storm north of us to be the problem but we just went to Warning from a cell southwest of us. - CovingtonCat Mar 8, 15:49 6
        
        They predict tornados using roation detection in radar now which causes more warnings to be issued without actual tornado sightings. - Qale Mar 8, 15:58 5
        
        Report of a touchdown in Indiana and sightings of some funnels as the storm crossed the Ohio into KY but nothing else touching down. - CovingtonCat Mar 8, 16:03 4

        Fucking furries. Yiff in hell! -- nm - Qale Mar 8, 16:34
        
        Imagine the look on the faces of the rescuers when they dig you out of the debris. -- nm - CovingtonCat Mar 8, 16:20
    - Also, when the tornado hits, don't bother to go check on your aunt to make sure she's ok. - Loyola Mar 8, 15:29 3
      - They *did* go back to Wachita after the F4 hit! -- nm - Qale Mar 8, 15:31 2
        
        Yeah but what was the point. The director could have just told them she got it in the neck and saved them the trip. - Loyola Mar 8, 15:33 1
        
        Looks like I need to work on that How Well Do You Know Twister quiz sooner rather than later. :P - Qale Mar 8, 15:39

    - *laughing* love that film -- nm - Loyola Mar 8, 15:21
  - Fortunately there are no cows nearby. Just assorted neighborhood cats and dogs. -- nm - CovingtonCat Mar 8, 15:15
They had to think about it for a long time, but if Kentucky is forced to, they suppose they will accept an NIT invitation. -- (link) - TFox Mar 8, 14:58 3
- They're not getting into the big one and they don't deserve to be there either so they might as well go to the NIT. -- nm - Krusty Mar 8, 15:12 2
  - I agree, but reading it, it looked like they seriously considered skipping the NIT, as it would be beneath the Kentucky pedigree. - TFox Mar 8, 15:15 1
    - I know, they said they don't want to lower the standards. How good does it look if you're not playing anywhere in March? - Krusty Mar 8, 15:19
Report: Red Sox and Jon Lester have agreed on $30M extension through 2013, with $13M option for 2014. - TFox Mar 8, 14:44 1

Pippy LIR: New Moon (spoilerish?) - Diva Mar 8, 14:24 5
- Twilight did so well that they decided the second one needed a "name" actor? - la liioulu apres la prochaine deluge Mar 8, 15:10 2
  - I guess at first blush that seems right - She can only help in my opinion -- nm - Epiphany Mar 8, 15:25 1
    - Spoilerish Idea inside - Diva Mar 8, 17:15
- You are a smart, smart lady - agreeance on all the New Moon stuff - Epiphany Mar 8, 14:44 1
  - I enjoyed Eclipse as well. And yep - Kristen Stewart could be the wild card as far as finishing the first 3 that they are currently contracted to do. -- nm - Diva Mar 8, 17:10
"There's no such thing as same-sex marriage. Sex is never the same after marriage." (Overheard by a CBS cameraman at a Proposition 8 rally.) -- nm - zeitgeist Mar 8, 14:24 6
- Article in local paper today states 76% of people in NC want an amendment to state constitution defining marriage between man & woman. 21% are - Hdn'd Justice Mar 8, 14:47 5
  - Wow, 76% of NC are bigots? *shocked* -- nm - The Calico Cat Coalition Mar 8, 15:12 4
    - I disagree with the notion that being opposed to same-sex marriage automacially classifies one as a "bigot." - ReluctantCynic Mar 8, 16:10 1
      - no other reason to oppose it other than you don't one one class of people to have the rights of all - The Calico Cat Coalition Mar 8, 18:37
    - Did you think the number was higher or lower? ;) -- nm - la liioulu apres la prochaine deluge Mar 8, 15:13 1

LIR for Bery: Officiants rarely stick around for the reception, first off they don't know anybody there but you and you're busy - zeitgeist Mar 8, 14:17 2

I'm at ann's. she and steve have comcast for cable modem. it's so unbearably slow. how do people live like this? -- nm - the emerald city loves mandy lane Mar 8, 13:55 16
- Wait, what's faster than that? I'm on Comcast Cable Broadband and it seems fast enough. - JaxSean Mar 8, 14:13 1

  - i'm trying to find comparisons between comcast and the new clear wimax. - reluctantcynic (en treo) Mar 8, 14:12 2
    - I am a huge believer in the future of clear wimax. I think it'll change (parts of) the world. -- nm - the emerald city loves mandy lane Mar 8, 14:37
    - This is wifi (shows a cupcake getting sprinkles on it) this is Mobile broadband (6 cupcakes with a few sprinkles) this is Clear(sprinkles everywhere) -- nm - Redmond Mar 8, 14:28
- I love my Comcast internet. Best part of Comcast by far -- nm - amoxy Mar 8, 14:00
- it ain't easy. my 'mobile broadband' in aus is only 700kbps at best. it's like living in the dark ages sometimes. - mafic Mar 8, 13:59
- my parents went off dial up last year, and my father has had computers since they were first availible -- nm - peglegpete Mar 8, 13:59 2
  - but they have cable modem here. this is not so relevant. -- nm - the emerald city loves mandy lane Mar 8, 14:08 1
    - my pare3nts could have had a cable connection a decade ago -- nm - peglegpete Mar 8, 14:12

  - 922. can I just go home now?? -- nm - the emerald city loves mandy lane Mar 8, 14:07 3
    - My comcast is showing 16megs download and 2 megs upload - amoxy Mar 8, 14:12 2
      - we must just have a crap connection here, then. I don't know. I'm just visiting. -- nm - the emerald city loves mandy lane Mar 8, 14:20 1
        
        They're probably on an overloaded node. Comcast is notorious for doing that in cities, like Seattle. - Trish Mar 8, 17:23
Tropical turtles may have found America before Cloumbus did. -- (link) - Loyola Mar 8, 13:48 1

  - When David Frum is the sane voice in the wilderness, something has gone really wrong. -- nm - Reagen Mar 8, 13:47

Salami as a 1 topping Pizza is very underrated -- nm - amoxy Mar 8, 13:31 8
- I *love* both but I don't think I'd ever put salami on a pizza. -- nm - Krustylu Mar 8, 13:49 7
  - Think of it as really big pepperoni? -- nm - Tim Mar 8, 13:56 6
    - I'm not saying I wouldn't try it if someone ordered it but I wouldn't ask for it on my pizza. Pepperoni is perfect why mess w/perfection? -- nm - Krusty Mar 8, 14:02 5
      - I always thought pepperoni was part of the dried meat /salami family -- nm - peglegpete Mar 8, 14:22 3
        
        It is, it's a cured sausage as is pepperoni. Pepperoni is much spicier than salami though. -- nm - Krusty Mar 8, 14:29 2
        
        And not as dry as pepperoni, especially if we're talking about Genoe salami, not a hard salami. -- nm - Krusty Mar 8, 14:35 1
