- Four-way? -- nm - Spawn Oct 26, 15:56
- Declarations involving your S.O. and "talked into" should probably be more interesting. - Mop Oct 26, 15:44 1
  - I talked him into getting the 52" TV rather than the 46" - does that count? -- nm - kelly Oct 26, 15:45
- "Pretty" sure? Ha. -- nm - kelly Oct 26, 15:40

  - so you apologized by making a pie didn't you? - Remlik Oct 26, 15:45 4
    - Nope. Best I can remember, everytime he'd ask me anything for a few days I'd get all snippy and say, - Trish Oct 26, 15:50 1
      - HA! -- nm - Remlik Oct 26, 15:51

Just saw Coldplay on last night's SNL. What's that line? "Suck it, Bono!" -- nm - Mop Oct 26, 15:16
I think every single player on my Astronauts team went from productive veteran to Jerry Rice on the Seahawks washed-up in the offeseason - Will Hunting Oct 26, 15:15 1
- This may be the first time that every player on one of my teams in in double digits. -- nm - Spawn Oct 26, 16:01
One of the puppies is awake! -- nm - Mop Oct 26, 15:15 13
- ...and they're asleep again. -- nm - Mop Oct 26, 15:18

        Back-sleeper is sooo cute! - krusty Oct 26, 15:41 5
        
        we just watch puppies? that's all? -- nm - frankenstein loves mandy lane Oct 26, 15:53 2
        
        If it doesn't make someone smile there's something wacky about them. - Mel Profit Oct 26, 15:57
        
        Yup. They are so frickin' cute! The pile-ons are the best part. -- nm - krusty Oct 26, 15:57
        
        Yeah, that made me laugh out loud. They've adjusted a bit now. -- nm - mara Oct 26, 15:42 1
        
        Always makes me wonder what they're dreaming. -- nm - CrankYanker Oct 26, 15:43
      - they need names. that one who keeps twitching in its sleep i shall name Twitchy -- nm - pigby Oct 26, 15:34 1
        
        we have: Wags, Chubby, Fightey-Bitey, Face, Runty and Paws McGee. -- nm - Mel Profit/Diva Oct 26, 15:55
What the crap was that corner doing -- nm - Stewie Oct 26, 15:12 3
- what fight? What happened? -- nm - Mel Profit Oct 26, 15:15 2
  - corner...back -- nm - Stewie Oct 26, 15:16 1
    - right...I forgot it was TT Football Sunday. -- nm - Mel Profit Oct 26, 15:28
Eli Manning you are killing me. Give me some points -- nm - Redmond Oct 26, 15:09 2
- average score against me in Astronauts this year (with points still to come) - Reagen Oct 26, 15:12 1
  - And mine is (not including today) - the wrong element, bad guy Oct 26, 15:24
whien i rule the compound, to prove my benevolence, i will let you keep the puppy cam -- nm - pigby Oct 26, 15:05
ML, yea, it's far too early to label JaMarcus a bust. He's only started like 10 games so far. - Will Hunting Oct 26, 15:01 3
- I thought a LOT of people gave up on him? - Cuzzin Todd Oct 26, 15:04 1
  - Just no one within the organization who would likely lose their jobs if they gave up on him. -- nm - Will Hunting Oct 26, 15:24
- 7 starts...6 TDs...3 INTs... 2 wins... probably above average even if you're not on the Raiders -- nm - Stewie Oct 26, 15:03
Yeah, the new HSX isn't even remotely stable... - secretslacker Oct 26, 15:01 1
- me too. Nigeria! -- nm - CrankYanker Oct 26, 15:27
Anybody care to tell me how bad Spawn is kicking my ass in Asstronauts? -- nm - nubby Oct 26, 15:00 4
- 86.55 to 136.30 - Trish Oct 26, 15:49 3
  - Train keeps 'a rollin'. - Spawn Oct 26, 15:54
  - Thanks. :\ -- nm - nubby Oct 26, 15:54 1
    - Have no idea what this will look like in ST. - Spawn Oct 26, 16:02
secretstalker ygm -- nm - peglegpete Oct 26, 14:58
538: They've got the clip of Nate Silver on Colbert. 351 for Obama (96.7%). Indiana and Missouri are blue. -- (link) - Mop Oct 26, 14:50
I watched The Descent Unrated version. Wow that was some graphic violence. Spoilers - Redmond Oct 26, 14:44 3
- Did you know about the alternate ending? spoilers - secretslacker Oct 26, 14:50 2
  - spoilers.... - Remlik Oct 26, 14:55 1
    - Oh, I knew that. -- nm - secretslacker Oct 26, 15:00
Amy Poehler had a baby boy? I guess she really wasn't trying to prank us these past 9 months and was pregnant ;) -- nm - peglegpete Oct 26, 14:43 3
- The joke's on her. She thought she was faking. -- nm - Mop Oct 26, 14:46 2
  - She's not Amy Kaufman -- nm - zeitgeist Oct 26, 15:44
  - Wait, WHAT?!?!? -- nm - Amy, going into labor Oct 26, 14:46
Do those puppies ever NOT sleep?! -- nm - Mop Oct 26, 14:43 1
- Yeah...when they eat. - Mel Profit Oct 26, 14:54
I still can't believe that Mr. Magorium is by the same writer as Stranger than Fiction. - secretslacker Oct 26, 14:32 13
- Yeah it was so... flat (spoils) - celedhrymandias Oct 26, 14:50
- I found both unwatchable. I even ignored my major dislike of Will Ferrell for STFIC and could not get past the first 15 minutes -- nm - peglegpete Oct 26, 14:36 11
  - Really? I'm not much of a Ferrell fan either but it was one of my favorite movies that year (STFIC) -- nm - secretslacker Oct 26, 14:39 10
    - I agree, and it was looked even better when I follwed it the next night with The Fountain. -- nm - the wrong element, bad guy Oct 26, 15:20
    - I thought it was a hidden gem - loved what Will brought to the character. - Epiphany Oct 26, 14:44 2
      - Yep. -- nm - kelly Oct 26, 15:40
      - I'm probably going to have to see it again since I don't remember the ending... - secretslacker Oct 26, 14:46
    - really -- nm - peglegpete Oct 26, 14:41 4
      - Really!?!?!??! -- nm - secretslacker Oct 26, 14:42 3
        
        viagra?? -- nm - peglegpete Oct 26, 14:43 2
        
        Cyalis (sp?) -- nm - secretslacker Oct 26, 14:45 1
        
        take the last word :) - peglegpete Oct 26, 14:51
    - hated the ending (vague spoiler) - prayformojo Oct 26, 14:40
How is Mewelde Moore not dead? - David Oct 26, 14:20 7
- What was the defender supposed to do against Moore? Just stop? - krusty Oct 26, 14:22 6
  - The hit was clean but it was late. -- nm - David Oct 26, 14:23 5
    - See below, I think he was already in process of preparing to hit him. - krusty Oct 26, 14:25 4
      - Moot point right now after what happened after that. -- nm - krusty Oct 26, 14:26 3
        
        This game is not for sissies. - David Oct 26, 14:29 2
        
        The Giants have no excuse to not be up by 2 touchdowns right now. -- nm - Reagen Oct 26, 14:31 1
        
        Bend don't break defense. They are impressively holding their focus. -- nm - TFox Oct 26, 14:34
Bad call against the Giants. -- nm - krusty Oct 26, 14:20 4
- I thought it was an ok call because the ball had already bounced elsewhere -- nm - Stewie Oct 26, 14:22 3
  - At full speed the defender was already preparing to hit him. No way he could have stopped himself from making the hit. - krusty Oct 26, 14:23 2
    - He aimed for the guys head, you don't need to do that to tackle somebody - Stewie Oct 26, 14:26 1
      - I agree that he didn't need to aim for his head, very dangerous. - krusty Oct 26, 14:29
We've been playing Guitar Hero World Tour for about 6 hours straight now. Finally took a break to eat and get some laundry done. - JaxSean Oct 26, 14:02
Well they seem to be working on fixing the HSX game. Some improvements already (though still really slow). - pmb Oct 26, 14:00 7
- I do really miss the game. it made me care about something that just *didn't matter* in the end. it was a fab distraction. -- nm - frankenstein loves mandy lane Oct 26, 14:39
- I find it somewhat liberating not going to HSX anymore, especially on Fridays and Sundays. -- nm - CrankYanker Oct 26, 14:06
- the slowness just kills the fun for me. -- nm - Beaker Oct 26, 14:05 4
  - The slowness is really strange since they only get about 807,118 visits a month. -- nm - Qale Oct 26, 14:40
  - I assume it will get better. There are a number of other things still to be improved too, but it seems like they got the message to get the game back - pmb Oct 26, 14:12
  - it may not be the same for everyone, but i found it's faster to use advanced trader than quick trader when making a series of trades. -- nm - b! Oct 26, 14:09
  - It was much faster yesterday, I'm sure they're still working on performance issues -- nm - Scorpion Oct 26, 14:07
And, lyc, the NC State Fair was awesome as usual. Pics are on FB. -- nm - nubby Oct 26, 13:59
As a head coach. -- nm - Redmond Oct 26, 13:59 4
- He won the NFC East with Washington and the AFC West just last year with SD. -- nm - David Oct 26, 14:01 3
  - Fair enough. I consider him taking good teams he inherits and slowing beating them down. -- nm - Redmond Oct 26, 14:02 2
    - Players walk all over him, he's an offensive coordinator, not a head coach - Stewie Oct 26, 14:15 1
      - I agree with all of this. -- nm - David Oct 26, 14:18
What a f-ing joke. Penn State *lost* ground in the coaches poll this week. -- nm - Don Homer Oct 26, 13:57 3
- that was a quality game last night & a gutsy win for penn state - prayformojo Oct 26, 14:05
- Where did you see that? - krusty Oct 26, 14:05 1
  - They had 2 1sts last week, but were only down 23. Now they're -25. -- nm - Don Homer Oct 26, 15:04
my secret stalkee is getting a Relaxiciser - pigby Oct 26, 13:56
Rollo, if you didn't watch the game... - David Oct 26, 13:56 1
- we didn't get that game...that's disconcerting, & when you see WRs like Owens and Plax and the shit they pull, it doesn't bode well for him getting it -- nm - rollo Oct 26, 14:06
So, what have I missed? -- nm - nubby Oct 26, 13:54 35
- To summarize: You haven't missed anything. Go back to enjoying your Sunday :) -- nm - secretslacker Oct 26, 14:41
- puppy cam -- nm - mara Oct 26, 14:11 2
  - I'm keeping puppy cam open all day. I find it very relaxing and comforting. -- nm - ReluctantCynic Oct 26, 14:20 1
    - :-) That's sort of what I do at work. -- nm - mara Oct 26, 14:46
- My house got egged. - ReluctantCynic Oct 26, 14:06 2
  - yuck. memories from childhood, though -- watch out for tp'ing next! -- nm - b! Oct 26, 14:10 1
    - Stop telegraphing RC my next move. -- nm - Redmond Oct 26, 14:41
- people who keep saying no one treats them like they've changed would be wise to not revert to old behavior. -- nm - b! Oct 26, 14:04 25
  - Keep it up, Bonnie... just because I've changed doesn't mean I won't defend myself when being repeatedly attacked. -- nm - secretslacker Oct 26, 14:11 23
    - It's not an overreaction. HSX has been ruined. I hate it. It fucking sucks big horse cocks. All not over reactions. -- nm - Qale Oct 26, 14:17 19
      - Weren't you one of the people really upset over the board split or am I misremembering? - secretslacker Oct 26, 14:19 18
        
        I was and still hated it to the very end. But that's looking quite minor as compared to a complete alteration of the entire site. I don't care if - Qale Oct 26, 14:25 15
        
        Well, I'm certainly not going to be the one to rain on your...um... rainy parade... - secretslacker Oct 26, 14:29 12
        
        Thanks for the input but I generally don't take advice from people I don't like. - Qale Oct 26, 14:36 11
        
        Touch� :) -- nm - secretslacker Oct 26, 14:39 10
        
        In all seriousness though. - Qale Oct 26, 14:42 9
        
        Well, I was offered a fund before the changeover so I don't want everyone to leave! :) - secretslacker Oct 26, 14:45 8
        
        I think everyone is justified in their opinion of HSX and thinks we should stop fighting about it. -- nm - munchkin-voiced mara Oct 26, 14:48 1
        
        We can't stop now!! We're smaller than the people in Fantastic Voyage! -- nm - teeny-tiny secretstalker Oct 26, 14:51
        
        Their schmooze system is all part of that non-evolving and yes you probably should. - Qale Oct 26, 14:47
        
        Oops... tiny font alert!!! -- nm - secretslacker Oct 26, 14:46 4
        
        You can turn off the tiny font in the change info link on the left. -- nm - krusty Oct 26, 14:48 3
        
        Oh, is that what "Deep Nested Font Shrinking" Is? -- nm - secretslacker Oct 26, 14:52 2
        
        Heh, yeah. I don't care for the tiny font. -- nm - krusty Oct 26, 15:05 1
        
        I love it! -- nm - Kristin Chenowith Oct 26, 15:11
        
        You people are all moving away from the central point here: the refs fucked the Falcons today. -- nm - David Oct 26, 14:27 1
        
        Word. -- nm - ReluctantCynic Oct 26, 14:28
        
        weren't you the one who said he was quitting TT forever because you hated us all, or am i misremembering? -- nm - pigby Oct 26, 14:23 1
        
        Never happened, buddy. -- nm - secretslacker Oct 26, 14:27
    - way to confirm, man. -- nm - b! Oct 26, 14:14 1
      - *sigh* Whatever... ::shakes head:: -- nm - secretslacker Oct 26, 14:15
    - And my response to you on HSX was the nice version... I strongly suggest you drop it. -- nm - secretslacker Oct 26, 14:12
  - :\ -- nm - nubby Oct 26, 14:09
- ST is just as unable to get their facts straight as TT. -- nm - secretslacker Oct 26, 13:56
- The toilet. *gets mop* -- nm - Redmond Oct 26, 13:55
