since we seem to have an Alanis M theme going on, can we all agree that Jagged Little Pill can be accepted as "favorite Alanis song"? - call me Ishmael Mar 16, 10:22 12

  - agree 100% -- nm - groiny Mar 16, 10:34
  - ditto. SFIJ is my more favorite... - Mel Profit Mar 16, 10:32 4
    - SFIJ makes me feel young, even today. when I want to feel more... stable, I prefer under rug swept. - amanda Mar 16, 10:40 3

        oh yeah. twenty one things. narcissus. hands clean. you know what? that whole CD is just solid as well. -- nm - amanda Mar 16, 10:46 1
        
        I'd put JLP, SFIJ and Under Rug Swept up against any trio of albums from just about any artist. -- nm - ???? Mar 16, 10:49
  - For real, yo. I was just getting ready to post that Infatuation Junkie gets played more in my rotation. Can I get a witness? -- nm - ???? Mar 16, 10:24 4

7) COORS LIGHT REVIEWS ON BEERADVOCATE. Years ago I made a foray into beer-snobbery and found that it was deeply unrewarding. - CQ Mar 16, 09:26 3
- I find myself increasingly satisfied to stick to my roster of about a dozen brews. I can appreciate "good" beer, but I find it overrated. - Name Withheld By Request Mar 16, 09:53
- "14 Reasons Why Knoxville Is The Best City In The World!" I'm also glad to see that he's a voice against bacon culture. -- nm - Roger More Mar 16, 09:39

Bored? Here's a 57 minute clip of all of MikeTyson's KOs. -- (link) - Shaun Mar 16, 09:03 [youtube] 23

- Bad.intentions. - Will Hunting Mar 16, 09:18 1
  - Fighting for him back then must have been rather boring. - Ultron Mar 16, 09:42
- Actually might not be all his KOs, but whatever. -- nm - Shaun Mar 16, 09:08 16
  - I was gonna say! -- nm - Ultron Mar 16, 09:13 15
    - Pop your Crota cherry yet? -- nm - Shaun Mar 16, 09:13 14
      - Weeks ago! -- nm - Ultron Mar 16, 09:14 13
        
        You are well equipped to be a swordbearer :) -- nm - Shaun Mar 16, 09:18 12
        
        Thos weekend I finally got some drops. New chest piece and new gauntlets. - Ultron Mar 16, 09:19 11
        
        Which pulse rifle? -- nm - David Mar 16, 10:11
        
        I see that. Very nice. -- nm - Shaun Mar 16, 09:21 9
        
        Meant new fusion rifle. Bought a Badger as I was tired of using a pulse rifle. -- nm - Ultron Mar 16, 09:23 8
        
        Do you mean scout rifle here? -- nm - Shaun Mar 16, 10:41 1
        
        No. I had Murmur and then got Light of the Abyss. -- nm - Ultron Mar 16, 11:05
        
        I was a big fan of Badger, until I bought and maxed Saterienne Rapier from Crucible sellers. -- nm - groiny Mar 16, 09:27 5
        
        I still prefer Badger, but I like that one. -- nm - David Mar 16, 10:12
        
        I will get more into Crucible later. I have had a couple games that were not bad, so that helps make it more interetsing. - Ultron Mar 16, 09:31 2
        
        crucible is much like Halo matchmaking, you need to know the maps and weapons. - groiny Mar 16, 09:33 1
        
        Yeah, not knowing the maps means I run into people more than I like, so shottie. -- nm - Ultron Mar 16, 09:38
        
        You're welcome, btw :) -- nm - Shaun Mar 16, 09:29
