Last night, I'm pretty sure I reached "over Julia Roberts" status. - Will Hunting Aug 26, 10:53 17
- with a dash of, "How can I make this about me?!" -- nm - Mel Profit Aug 26, 10:57 2
  - Yep. -- nm - Will Hunting Aug 26, 10:58 1
    - She did that when she presented Best Actor to Denzel for 'Training Day'. She read the envelope and said something like 'God, I love my life!'. - Diva Aug 26, 11:00
- I am annoyed that I forgot all about that being on last night. - groiny Aug 26, 10:55 11
  - You really didn't miss all that much...there were some decent speeches, a really good Robin Williams thing - Will Hunting Aug 26, 10:57 9
    - yeah, I know, but I love MF and BB, so I would have enjoyed watching it. - groiny Aug 26, 10:59 6
      - Love BB, but broke up with MF. -- nm - Beryllium Aug 26, 11:01 1
        
        I like MF...but to win the best comedy...5 years in a row...c'mon. - Will Hunting Aug 26, 11:03
      - I don't like Paul and I refuse to get Chris Pratted in his case. -- nm - Max Aug 26, 11:00 3
        
        I like him enough, but I am not sure his "acting" like Jesse is all that much of an act. nm -- nm - groiny Aug 26, 11:02 1
        
        He sounds to me like he's trying to voice act John Wayne. -- nm - Max Aug 26, 11:04
        
        I think he's a dopey kid who realizes he hit the lottery and is enjoying the ride. - Will Hunting Aug 26, 11:02
    - I have so little use now for mainstream comedies. I've moved to fringe comedy offerings at this point with New Girl's being the most conventional. -- nm - Mel Profit Aug 26, 10:58 1
      - So, was the pitch for "Let's Be Cops" basically : "How about Coach and Nick pretend to be cops?" -- nm - oblique Aug 26, 11:02

  - I've got to think that if his next infraction is 4 games, the Redskins will consider moving on. -- nm - Strongbad Aug 26, 10:47 1
    - We shoulda considered moving on as soon as we could. - Will Hunting Aug 26, 10:52

January Jones' hair last night looks like a pubescent junior high girl tried to do her very first updo herself. -- (link) - Andie Aug 26, 10:40 19
- Poor Man's JLaw -- nm - budice Aug 26, 10:47 1
  - She does kind of have his chin. - Beryllium Aug 26, 10:48
- Her hair looks fine. She does look grumpy, though. -- nm - David Aug 26, 10:43 12
  - because she knows her career is over -- nm - Remlik Aug 26, 10:47
  - The Jones-bot 2.0 will have an upgrade to as many as 6 natural-looking expressions. -- nm - Reagen Aug 26, 10:44 1
    - That's the problem with sexbots. Their personality sucks. -- nm - David Aug 26, 10:45

      - she has fallen a long, long way since Buttercup. nm -- nm - groiny Aug 26, 10:52
      - She looks like an odd cross between Mick Jagger's body and Rod Stewart's face. -- nm - David Aug 26, 10:52 2
        
        She looks so severe on House of Cards. It works in that role, but..... -- nm - prayformojo Aug 26, 10:54 1
        
        I actually like the jumpsuit, I'm just a little scared of her is all. -- nm - Diva Aug 26, 11:02
      - what is this i don't even - Beryllium Aug 26, 10:51
- It looks nice. - Beryllium Aug 26, 10:43
- I call that Daryl Hannah Style (and don't like it) -- nm - Max Aug 26, 10:42 1
  - it's not even the style (thought i don't like that either) it's just so stringy. -- nm - Andie Aug 26, 10:43

Awesome. I am projected to go 12-1 in Cavemen...however I'm probably the only one who has a lineup actually set so far. -- nm - Shaun Aug 26, 10:29 2
- 8-5 -- nm - amoxy Aug 26, 10:46 1
  - You are clearly horrible at FF. -- nm - Shaun Aug 26, 10:57
My big $ draft is tomorrow night and I have done nothing to prepare for it. I have the 4th pick, so I should get a decent RB. -- nm - CQ Aug 26, 10:19 3
- [deleted] 2
  - Okay, so don't take Jimmy Graham. Take Forte instead -- nm - CQ Aug 26, 10:28
  - Its crazy to think of a TE as that big of a differencemaker. It's the TE qualification which adds value. -- nm - budice Aug 26, 10:23

this link is for amanda. -- (link) - Andie Aug 26, 10:09
It's hard for a sh!tshw to impress when you're already expecting one. However, Bachelor in Paradise, you've outdone yourself this time. -- nm - znufrii Aug 26, 10:06 1
- Agreed. It's amazing. Just when you think, "ok, they are all settled into couples. So and so is clearly out." things go haywire. -- nm - volnelk Aug 26, 10:57

- I might update it with a tiny San Francisco skyline, but I'm not sure yet -- nm - Beryllium Aug 26, 10:00 7
  - that's the one thing that only slightly gives it away. But the left side of the banner is Aces. -- nm - Mel Profit Aug 26, 10:03 6
    - I have a few things I need to do first ... Last night I got embed prefixes working (but not ready to launch yet) - Beryllium Aug 26, 10:05 5

      - I like it. -- nm - Mel Profit Aug 26, 10:05

LIR: I saw a billboard for "Blackish" on ABC this fall. Why does that seem like a royally bad idea? -- nm - oblique Aug 26, 09:41 1
- been seeing promos for a while, varying between meh or cringeworthy. -- nm - znufrii Aug 26, 09:42
Insider trading and his name is Lucarelli? How appropriate. Filthy filthy lucre. -- nm - Was Bar Was Aug 26, 09:39
oh, did I mention both of our cars also flooded in the mess? - groiny Aug 26, 09:37 3

  - will do. thanks -- nm - groiny Aug 26, 09:47
  - Big time this. -- nm - Spawn Aug 26, 09:41

    - 9? Inside. - Spawn Aug 26, 09:32 13

        Good enough. Trust you. At the wrong computer, or would be in there. -- nm - Spawn Aug 26, 09:41 7
        
        He got Novak. Beaker, if you see this and Prater goes undrafted, feel free to swap out. - David Aug 26, 09:42 6
        
        Appologies for not realizing he was up, and those picks. As I said, he sent them about 26 hours ago so figured that was old news. - Spawn Aug 26, 09:49 5
        
        God, I hate you. -- nm - David Aug 26, 10:18
