  - I change my answer to include "Offs." -- nm - loaner machine mandy Dec 16, 08:04
- B is incorrect -- nm - Endor Dec 16, 07:52
- b is incorrect. -- nm - Landie Calrissian Dec 16, 07:52 3
  - if i was writing it though, i would *probably* say 50 cents, if it is in a sentence. -- nm - Landie Calrissian Dec 16, 07:55 2
    - Sure, but you wouldn't say "point fifty cents." -- nm - mara Dec 16, 08:07 1
      - oh god no. i was just saying, i probably wouldn't write it either of those ways. - Landie Calrissian Dec 16, 08:08

  - Just gave the results. -- nm - Endor Dec 16, 07:40
So presales broke $100M this week. Wonder what they will get to? -- nm - Spawn Solo Dec 16, 07:32 12
- Reminder: The adjust for STAR7 is standard 2.7 * weekend -- nm - Buda Fett Dec 16, 07:52 1
  - So, 843.75. -- nm - Spawn Solo Dec 16, 07:53
- It'll be interesting to see the ratio of presale tickets to walk ups this weekend. Poll, have you bought a presale ticket?! -- nm - Lukola Skywalker Dec 16, 07:41
- The important thing seems to be these don't cover all this weekend. They are across many days. - Will Hunting Dec 16, 07:39 6
  - That's the same for any pre-sales. Granted, Star Wars is probably more weighted towards the rest of the holidays, but not extremely so. - Inigo Dec 16, 07:43 1
    - I fully expect this to go even more frontloaded with Saturday sell-outs, as well. -- nm - Spawn Solo Dec 16, 07:45
  - Yes and no. -- nm - Spawn Solo Dec 16, 07:40 3
    - In the way it shows "Massive!", yes. In the way that it shows 225mil opening weekend, no. - Will Hunting Dec 16, 07:47 2

- Hell no. It's a classic universe that has any number of untold main stories left to be told. -- nm - Will Hunting Dec 16, 07:49
- I think the story will continue to unfold from wherever 9 leaves it, but before too long your core original cast will slip the surly bonds. -- nm - ewokicripple Dec 16, 07:37
- Nope. Marvel/Disney have already shown they love to beat a dead horse -- nm - decline Dec 16, 07:34
- No - the good vs evil battle is central to the franchise. The characters will change, but Sith vs Jedi won't -- nm - who's scruffy-looking? Dec 16, 07:33
- lol, no. -- nm - znufrii Dec 16, 07:31
- If 7 - 9 breaks records - No way they stop. - Mel Profitine Dec 16, 07:31
- No. It's a classic good vs. evil story, and that won't end until the money does. -- nm - Inigo Dec 16, 07:29

"During the holidays, items shipped by Amazon between November 1st and December 31st can be returned until January 31st. " - Spawn Solo Dec 16, 07:23 8
- Yeah, I read it as can't be returned. Like, they're too busy to handle returns. I'm a dope and fail at reading comprehension today. -- nm - Krusty Dec 16, 07:24 7
  - I remember a few times I wanted to return a gift and it had been purchased Black Friday and they would not do it. - Spawn Solo Dec 16, 07:26
  - Sneaker stress. -- nm - Jax Pavan Dec 16, 07:25
  - you're trying too hard to be mad and lose. don't do that until you try to talk to nike. -- nm - loaner machine mandy Dec 16, 07:25 4
    - I just tried to return it through Amazon but they want me to ship them to the sneaker store where they'll process the return. - Krusty Dec 16, 07:29 3
      - as I said. use twitter and facebook. they'll fix it for you. -- nm - loaner machine mandy Dec 16, 07:40 2
        
        what if you don't have those ? -- nm - decline Dec 16, 07:50 1
        
        WHAT YEAR IS THIS? -- nm - Groindo (Green lives matter) Dec 16, 07:53
I thought I had to wait until Jan. 31st to return them. I can't read! -- (edited) - Krusty Dec 16, 07:23 3
- This is saying you can return them up until 1/31. So return them now. -- nm - Jax Pavan Dec 16, 07:24 1
  - On it. :-) -- nm - Krusty Dec 16, 07:25
- See above. -- nm - Spawn Solo Dec 16, 07:23
I had my first taste of Coke Zero today. It's *very* like regular coke. How did they do that?! *amazeballs* -- nm - Lukola Skywalker Dec 16, 07:22 23
- That stuff is my lifeblood. -- nm - ty97 Dec 16, 07:45
- Cherry (Vanilla) Dr Pepper is the best -- nm* - Buda Fett Dec 16, 07:37 1
  - You are a pepper. - Spawn Solo Dec 16, 07:40
- It's my favorite soft drink. The Cherry Coke Zero is even better. -- nm - ML Galaxy Dec 16, 07:35 2
  - Yeah, it's awesome. I wish I could have it. -- nm - Dark Callisto vs. Evil Dead Dec 16, 07:49
  - Cool, will try. -- nm - Lukola Skywalker Dec 16, 07:43
- Totally. I *almost* prefer Zero to regular Coke even. -- nm - spamlet Dec 16, 07:28 1
  - TTOPOW! -- nm - Spawn Solo Dec 16, 07:36
- Yeah, and Diet Coke doesn't taste the same since I switched to Coke Zero. -- nm - Jax Pavan Dec 16, 07:24 13
  - I can't even pretend to drink diet coke now. - Groindo (Green lives matter) Dec 16, 07:26 12
    - I swear this is a male/female thing. I still prefer Diet Coke, Dave prefer's Coke Zero. And that seems pretty common... -- nm - Landie Calrissian Dec 16, 07:32 5
      - Yeah. -- nm - kelly Dec 16, 07:49
      - I honestly did not know anyone was drinking Coke Zero until this thread. -- nm - Spawn Solo Dec 16, 07:33 3
        
        I'm drinking it when I drink soda - which is not often - Pippy Bells Dec 16, 07:34 2
        
        yeah, I don't often drink it either, but when I have to, it is coke zero - Groindo (Green lives matter) Dec 16, 07:35 1
        
        they only make the decaffinated version in one flavor - original. I'm thrilled there is an option for me - Pippy Bells Dec 16, 07:36
    - Every once in a while I'll have a diet instead. It's a different taste than Zero. -- nm - spamlet Dec 16, 07:28
    - I find Coke Zero to be about the same as Diet Coke. - Spawn Solo Dec 16, 07:27 4
      - Coke Zero is much more drinkable that Diet Coke, but even CZ is still so far away from Coke itself. -- nm - ShaunShaun Dec 16, 07:29 1
        
        I only had it one time when they were giving out free ones at a concert. - Spawn Solo Dec 16, 07:30
      - well, your taste buds were already questionable. nm -- nm - Groindo (Green lives matter) Dec 16, 07:28 1
        
        In that I know how much better Coke Classic is? - Spawn Solo Dec 16, 07:29

  - Hey I've been meaning to tell you - me and Roo saw your boyfriend - singer of Panic at the Disco - Pippy Bells Dec 16, 07:33 3
    - I love seeing them live. They are so fun to watch. Also, love the new song "LA Devotee." -- nm - MDH Dec 16, 07:41 1
      - Roo endorses that song as well - she showed me the video for Emperors New Clothes - very traumatic scary shit. I'm in love with Halleljuah -- nm - Pippy Bells Dec 16, 07:48
    - *singer ( pretend boyfriend) -- nm - Pippy Bells Dec 16, 07:38
anyone have a good recipe that uses evaporated milk? - znufrii Dec 16, 07:19 6
- Use it to sub for cream in a sauce...assuming unsweetened -- nm - General Zeit Dec 16, 14:00 1
  - If sweet, make Vietnamese coffee or mix it with your ice cream recipe -- nm - General Zeit Dec 16, 14:01
- I'm pretty sure our fudge recipe uses evaporated milk but no one is home to check it. -- nm - spamlet Dec 16, 07:32
- Rum balls -- (link) - who's scruffy-looking? Dec 16, 07:20
- cook some rice with extra water, use the water, mix it with the evaporated milk - Groindo (Green lives matter) Dec 16, 07:20
- these, obviously. -- (link) - Landie Calrissian Dec 16, 07:19
Rotten Tomatoes Game: Please guess the Rotten Tomatoes scores of Episodes I, II, and III. (In that order, no peeking.) -- nm - Endor Dec 16, 07:18 20
- Actual Numbers: 56, 65, 79. Results: ShaunShaun wins with a score of 21. - Endor Dec 16, 07:40 8
  - Wow, I'm actually surprised critics were even that harsh initially. - Will Hunting Dec 16, 07:41 1
    - They weren't. Scores came down this year with re-watches. -- nm - Davi Dec 16, 07:44
  - Wow. -- nm - Spawn Solo Dec 16, 07:41 5
    - Episode II was actually Fresh.I tend to think the prequels have been the victims of a lot of revisionist reviewing. -- nm - Endor Dec 16, 07:42 4
      - Yep. -- nm - Dark Callisto vs. Evil Dead Dec 16, 08:05
      - I saw AotC for the first time this week. The story isn't bad but the dialogue and acting are terrible. -- nm - spamlet Dec 16, 07:44 2
        
        The story in the prequels really isn't bad at all. Lucas just couldn't write dialog, get the actors to believably speak his dialog, and he though he could do more than he actually could digitally. -- nm - Endor Dec 16, 07:46 1
        
        This is a great summation of the problems with the prequels. -- nm - Inigo Dec 16, 07:47
- Interesting that Return of the Jedi and Revenge of the Sith have the same RT score. -- nm - Inigo Dec 16, 07:26 1
  - Seems like all the final movies in a series get a sendoff -- (edited) - Buda Fett Dec 16, 07:29
