- It's a trap! -- nm - professor smartbrain May 22, 11:42
A number of STers have made this pulled pork. How many does it serve, do you think? - TWuG May 22, 11:41 3
- We usually get 2.5 meals out of a batch and there's 3 of us. So a double batch should be 15 or so? -- nm - spamlet May 22, 11:47
- Link. :-) -- (link) - TWuG May 22, 11:43
- 8 pounds? I'd say... 16? Depends on how many other dishes/sides you have. -- nm - Strongbad May 22, 11:43
more wedding a-holeness: dear prudie - My Future MIL Wants To Wear Her Wedding Dress to My Wedding - help! - Diva May 22, 11:32 13
- This is territorial behavior. Quickly assault your foe and leave them gasping for their last breath. -- nm - David May 22, 11:44
- sneak over her house and slash the dress into little strips. -- nm - decline May 22, 11:34 3
  - Then set her bed on fire. -- nm - kelly May 22, 11:51

  - !!! -- nm - Diva May 22, 11:35
- She'll look like an idiot. - pmb May 22, 11:33 1
  - Have one of the MIL's aunts, sisters, bbfs talk to her, while there are relatively few taboos in dress codes these day, *that* is still standing -- nm - zeitgeist May 22, 11:46
- what does the dress look like? if it's not a 'wedding dress', who cares? if it is clearly a 'wedding dress', then she's crazy and needs to back - San Andreas May 22, 11:33 5
  - I know nothing, but I bet it doesn't look like your wedding dress (which doesn't look like a traditional wedding dress). -- nm - Diva May 22, 11:34 4
    - heh,. i know you don't know, but that actually matters. like, if she got married in a suit... -- nm - San Andreas May 22, 11:38 3
      - in all seriousness my future MIL wore a red dress to our wedding. - Diva May 22, 11:45 1
        
        yeah, i didn't care either - i had people say to me 'what if someone else wears *red*?" my answer was "someone probably will" - San Andreas May 22, 11:46
      - I agree. -- nm - Diva May 22, 11:40
Destiny: Trials of Osiris vendor is selling the chest piece and the auto rifle. -- nm - Shaun May 22, 11:07 2

Cards Against Originality, or online multiplayer cards against humanity. For some reason the default nickname is "Dawson". -- (link) - Beryllium May 22, 11:04 4

- Needs more communication. -- nm - Beryllium May 22, 11:07 2
  - You're supposed to be in the same room playing. -- nm - spamlet May 22, 11:20
  - oh, hey, we have a chat platform right here. -- nm - Beryllium May 22, 11:07
memorial day hax chat q: she's getting an awesome sleeve tattoo! she's also getting kicked out of her sibling's wedding - professor smartbrain May 22, 10:59 32
- Part of me says she should put it off, but the other part wonders what's next? Is she cut out of every family event if she gets it done? -- nm - Roger More May 22, 11:36 2
  - that'd be funny: 'If you get the sleeve you can't come to Grandpa's 80th bday." - Diva May 22, 11:39 1
    - "You can come to the family summer barbecue but you can't be in any of the photos" -- nm - Roger More May 22, 11:42
- Would they get kicked out for having burns on her arms? -- nm - groiny May 22, 11:20 1
  - God I hope so -- nm - professor smartbrain May 22, 11:22
- Yeah, I'd go to the sibling before I did anything...but I'd lean toward postponing the ink. It's assholish of them to suggest this to you... - Jim May 22, 11:14 1
  - well, not equally -- nm - Roger More May 22, 11:38
- I think I think partial shoulder tats on women are sexy but not sleeve tats. - Max May 22, 11:14 6
  - I think about that when I watch the wedding dress shows and the bride has a back tattoo. Has to be a little distracting to some family members. -- nm - Meg May 22, 11:18 5
    - It's weird how different people react to different things...cause it wouldn't distract me in the least. UNLESS... - Jim May 22, 11:24 4
      - I think it bothers me more if only part of it shows. Either show off the whole thing or cover it completely. Otherwise I - Meg May 22, 11:28 3
        
        Nude wedding! -- nm - Spawn May 22, 11:36 2
        
        Meg just wants to ascertain whether they're Russian mobster prison tats so she'll be able to plot her next move. -- nm - Diva May 22, 11:37 1
        
        Yup. - Spawn May 22, 11:39
- Postpone and get it done later. It's wrong for them to do this but I wouldn't want to miss out on the wedding. -- nm - Krusty May 22, 11:04 2
  - Yeah, just wait six months or a year. -- nm - professor smartbrain May 22, 11:09 1
    - Or, you know, wear an outfit with sleeves. -- nm - Spawn May 22, 11:10
- no longer *invited*? that's crazy. i thought it was going to be 'kicked out of the wedding party - also stupid) - San Andreas May 22, 11:03 4
  - even though it happens constantly, i really don't know when people decided that their wedding meant they could dictate their friends and families - San Andreas May 22, 11:07 3
    - DO NOT RUIN HER PERFECT DAY!!!! - Spawn May 22, 11:16 2
      - Tattoo idiot need to realize that it's just "one day and a great party" - professor smartbrain May 22, 11:22
      - Even if your families did hide in the bedroom as your crazy friends invaded the reception suite ;) -- nm - Meg May 22, 11:20
- Go directly to sibling: "Am I invited if I get the tattoo?" If no, then you know where you stand. - TWuG May 22, 11:02
- tell them ok, then get it done anyway and show up. - decline May 22, 11:02 1
  - #PalinWeddingFTW! -- nm - Diva May 22, 11:33
- It's a stupid idea to get that tat, and your family is ridiculous to try to manipulate you out of doing it. -- nm - David May 22, 11:00 6
  - Exactly. And on subject, by niece's wedding this past weekend was interesting. She has a full sleeve tattoo and the groom is also heavily tattooed. - pmb May 22, 11:10 2
    - *idea for Dawson* -- nm - Roger More May 22, 11:14 1
      - I have been trying to convince him to get an Iron Mike-like tat. -- nm - Spawn May 22, 11:40
  - *ding* on both accounts. - spamlet May 22, 11:06
  - yes, yes. -- nm - amanda May 22, 11:03 1
    - I agree with Damanda. -- nm - landbeck May 22, 11:08

Weekend PSA for the racing fans: Sunday is the Monaco GP, followed by Indy 500, ending with Coke 600. -- nm - Strongbad May 22, 10:47 8
- So excited for Monaco! -- nm - MDH May 22, 10:58 1
  - how come? They don't even rate a number on their race. - decline May 22, 11:03
- why does coke get a higher number? -- nm - decline May 22, 10:47 5
  - because the race is longer. -- nm - Strongbad May 22, 10:49 3
    - they should change the Indy one to 601 and be the highest! -- nm - decline May 22, 10:51 2
      - We need to get up to 1000 -- nm - eag May 22, 10:59 1

Aaron Hernandez has a new neck tattoo that says "Lifetime" on the top of it. The bottom is obscured. It was noticed as he pled not guilty to charges -- (link) - volnelk May 22, 10:33 5
- He's apparently been a troubling maker in jail too... - Mel Profit May 22, 11:43
- It's good to see he's making friends. -- nm - spamlet May 22, 10:41
- it probably says ASSHOLE :) -- nm - Peglegpete May 22, 10:36 1
  - that one is on his lower back with an arrow pointing down. nm -- nm - groiny May 22, 10:45
- maybe he just really likes that network. nm -- nm - groiny May 22, 10:35
Brewers bad cheater gets 8 games. - spamlet May 22, 10:30 11
- Why 8 for him when Pineda was given 10 last year? -- nm - Krusty May 22, 10:37 7
  - East Coast Bias. nm -- nm - groiny May 22, 10:38 1
    - Of course. ;-) -- nm - Krusty May 22, 10:42
  - Starter vs reliever would be my guess but MLB isn't known to be consistent either. -- nm - spamlet May 22, 10:37 4
    - Not directing this at you. It should be a set penalty that escalates if you repeatedly break the rule. SP or RP shouldn't matter. - Krusty May 22, 10:42 3
      - 8 games for a reliever is a lot harsher penalty than 10 games for a starter (1, maybe 2 starts). -- nm - spamlet May 22, 10:44 2
        
        I agree with this. -- nm - David May 22, 10:57
        
        If that's their thinking I guess I'm okay with it. -- nm - Krusty May 22, 10:49
- so, 1 start? -- nm - decline May 22, 10:31 2
  - He's a reliever. -- nm - spamlet May 22, 10:34 1
    - oh (I haven't follows this), then 8 starts? :) -- nm - decline May 22, 10:36

Destiny FYI: The lvl 32 PoE is a guaranteed armour core which you can redeem for light 42 gauntlets at the PoE vendor. - Shaun May 22, 10:18 12
- video at the bottom here seems rather concise. -- (link) - Spawn May 22, 10:49 2
  - I think most of us are far away from even attempting the lvl 35 instance. -- nm - Shaun May 22, 10:51 1
    - truman just did it. - Spawn May 22, 10:52
- Also the 1st time you open the big chest in the PoE treasure room, per week, per character is almost 100% to get an exotic. -- nm - Shaun May 22, 10:28 2
  - I've seen these posts, but I only went two for three, so it's definitely not 100%. -- nm - David May 22, 10:59 1
    - Oy, that's not cool. Mine was a shard (ie. Thunderlord) anyway so what can you do? -- nm - Shaun May 22, 11:05
- Note that you have to beat story mode to play Prison of Elders. - David May 22, 10:20 5
  - The one we did last night was the last I had to do. -- nm - Spawn May 22, 10:50
  - he did it once with me for sure. nm -- nm - groiny May 22, 10:23 3

    - Level 28 or level 32? -- nm - David May 22, 10:24 1
      - 30 -- nm - groiny May 22, 10:32
SMC (Sycor Might Care). Followup re: my theater comments from yesterday - con_carne May 22, 10:14 11
- Ah, you are the people I feel sorry for! -- nm - Spawn May 22, 10:53 1
  - I didn't say Wal Mart greeter! -- nm - con_carne May 22, 11:15
- That's a nice touch. No where around here does that. Our projectors just start automatically and it's the usher's job to go in periodically to check - sycor May 22, 10:34 1
  - Always has been a nice touch, yeah. Of course that and other things we do are labor intensive, which I guess led to hours being cut before my hiring -- (edited) - con_carne May 22, 11:31
- Arclight just opened a theater in MD not far from me, I am dying to go to it.. -- nm - MDH May 22, 10:20 3

- you wouldn't have noticed me. I'm friggin' Catwoman. - Diva May 22, 10:17 2
  - Other than smashing the 3-d glasses thing... -- nm - spamlet May 22, 10:44
  - I would announce your talented ass and have you sing a few of your favorite bars during my speech. That would make things square -- nm - con_carne May 22, 10:24
" ...but when the time comes, these will be yours. Along with whatever we haven't already spent on whores and whiskey" - M. Gustave May 22, 09:57

That moment when your cousin calls you begging you to not look at a picture that has yet to arrive in your messages. - MadCrow May 22, 09:41 4
- LOL! you already looked didn't you?! -- nm - Epiphany May 22, 09:46 2
  - I haven't, is it really my present? - MadCrow May 22, 09:59 1
    - yes it is, so don't look at it - SM for some reason was sending me a photo and included you too. - Epiphany May 22, 10:05
- Is his name Favre? -- nm - oblique May 22, 09:45
How do I know I'm gay? I totally hate all the Harley Quinn cosplay at Comicpolloza. -- nm - Qale As Folk May 22, 09:41 4
