- Hell, job search and move somewhere better! -- nm - Spawn Feb 3, 11:10 5
  - i mean, that's generally my first thought when i'm decide i'm sick of a place. relocation for an out of state job is generally decent. - colin Feb 3, 11:10 4
    - I mean, I have no idea as I own a business here so I can pretty much never move unless I wanted to go to work for someone (*spits*) or start over. -- nm - Spawn Feb 3, 11:13 3

If you like IcelandAir's trans-Atlantic service with a stop-over in Iceland, then you're going to LOVE their Stopover Buddy service. -- (link) - Mop Feb 3, 11:07 3
- Why would you ever want to leave Iceland? The name is short for IceCreamLand right? -- nm - Baron Whitlock Feb 3, 11:20 2
  - This feels like some kind of nefarious plot by the government of Iceland to increase their population. -- nm - Mop Feb 3, 11:25 1
    - They need to play up their drunk hillbilly persona a bit more... then they might have a chance. -- nm - colin Feb 3, 11:37
video ad and all that, but: which of these hotels catch your eye? -- (link) - prayformojo Feb 3, 11:04 3
- That cave hotel is awesome. -- nm - ty97 Feb 3, 11:06 2
  - I really liked the view from the one in/outside Paris, but when I got to the cave one....that'd be my first pick -- nm - prayformojo Feb 3, 11:11 1
    - The Paris one caught my eye, but I never get the room with the view, not matter how hard I try. - ty97 Feb 3, 11:12
Oh, Quebec protectionism. You are always amusing to me. -- (link) - Reagen Feb 3, 11:03 2
- The only way for Quebec to keep businesses from moving out of the province is to implement a protectionist stance. - Mop Feb 3, 11:11 1
  - I think it's deeper than that - the language policy is just part of the role of government in Quebec, and the expectation that if there's a problem - Roger More Feb 3, 11:17
If anyone here is looking for a medical ID bracelet but you want something that looks less like jewelry, may I recommend this? I've started wearing - kelly Feb 3, 11:00

  - dude. "and in state college..." -- nm - amanda jonas Feb 3, 11:04 4
    - 90% chance of dirty bomb on Saturday. Weather for Tuesday: nonexistent. -- nm - ty97 Feb 3, 11:07 3
      - only 1-3 inches? y'all are underperformers -- nm - ty97 Feb 3, 11:08 2
        
        size queens -- nm - Spawn Feb 3, 11:08 1
        
        Listen, if you can have fun tobogganing on 3 inches, more power to you. -- nm* - ty97 Feb 3, 11:09
I guess they didn't believe him. Wideman gets 20 games. -- nm - spamlet Feb 3, 10:59 2
- What would your ruling have been? Intentional or otherwise? -- nm* - prayformojo Feb 3, 11:00 1
  - He had an awful lot of time to *not* hit the linesman and you have to punish contact like that with officials severely. - spamlet Feb 3, 11:18

    - She must like foreheads. -- nm - Max Feb 3, 11:02 22
      - I'm golden! -- nm - groiny Feb 3, 11:03 21
        
        alas, she was never my supermodel of choice. -- nm - groiny Feb 3, 11:04 20
        
        who was? this is a poll. -- nm - amanda jonas Feb 3, 11:07 18
        
        Cindy was the definition of supermodel -- nm - ty97 Feb 3, 11:11 9
        
        Crawford / Evangelista / Naomi Campbell -- nm - Andie Feb 3, 11:15 4

        It has been a few weeks for me, so yes. -- (link*) - Spawn Feb 3, 11:22 [youtube]
        
        Cindy crossed over to way more than either of them, though. -- nm - Spawn Feb 3, 11:17 1
        
        then there was Kate Moss. She was their successor. -- nm - Andie Feb 3, 11:27
        
        Yeah, the rest were supermodels, while she was a Supermodel. Wes hit the only other one that comes close. -- nm - Spawn Feb 3, 11:14 2
        
        Kathy Ireland completes the cross-over trinity. -- nm - Will Hunting Feb 3, 11:20 1

        her Pepsi commercial was as hot as she can ever possibly be. -- nm - groiny Feb 3, 11:13
        
        Crawford. -- nm - Will Hunting Feb 3, 11:10
        
        H. Christensen -- nm* - prayformojo Feb 3, 11:09
        
        Evangelista -- nm - mr. plow Feb 3, 11:08 1

        I think I pick turlington. -- nm - amanda jonas Feb 3, 11:08
        
        Cindy (when she landed) -- nm - Spawn Feb 3, 11:07

- Man, the walls are really coming tumbling down. -- nm - ty97 Feb 3, 10:59

15 days until pitchers and catchers report for spring training. -- nm - Krusty - Most Right Poster Feb 3, 10:49 1

Heh, it looks like I could use this to make ST desktop apps -- (link) - Beryllium Feb 3, 10:44 2

- Avatar Ap? -- nm - Spawn Feb 3, 10:45
Oh hell no. Someone call the ACLU, they are effing with with my Right to Sleep now -- (link) - ty97 Feb 3, 10:41 2
- Hell no! Do not wake me up. I rely on the train for transportation, reading my books and grabbing a quick nap. - Krusty - Most Right Poster Feb 3, 10:57
- Next step -- less hookery clothing on women so they're not asking to be victimized. -- nm - Will Hunting Feb 3, 10:43
Thin Mints now, Thin Mints tomorrow and Thin Mints forever. -- nm - Krusty - Most Right Poster Feb 3, 10:38 26
- Girl Scout Cookies is a hybrid of OG Kush & Durban Poison - Peglegpete Feb 3, 10:51 1
  - Those are by far the best Girl Scout Cookies. The real ones are perfect after a session with the plant. -- nm - Krusty - Most Right Poster Feb 3, 11:03
- I have not eaten a GS cookie in 10 years probably. -- nm - groiny Feb 3, 10:48 3
  - More than that, for me. I would rather put some Pillsbury in the oven and make better ones. -- nm - Spawn Feb 3, 10:50 2
    - truth be told, I would rather eat some nachos or doritos than have a cookie. -- nm - groiny Feb 3, 10:58 1
      - We eat them for desert after lunch/supper. They are great for that. But for a snack, I concur. -- nm - Spawn Feb 3, 10:59
- Pizza yesterday, Girl Scout Cookies today? What tomorrow? Flavors of Kool-Aid? -- nm - amoxy Feb 3, 10:44 3
  - Personal favorite is grape followed by whichever ones are left. The blue and green ones are pretty tasty. -- nm* - Krusty - Most Right Poster Feb 3, 10:52 1
    - Stay away from the Jim Jones Medley flavor. -- nm - Baron Whitlock Feb 3, 11:00
  - What's to argue about with GS cookies? - TWuG Feb 3, 10:48
- yeah, how is this even a question? -- nm - prayformojo Feb 3, 10:41 5
  - mint and chocolate is just a lazy, meh combo -- nm - mr. plow Feb 3, 10:45 3
    - You mean awesome and a perfect flavor combination. -- nm - Krusty - Most Right Poster Feb 3, 10:50 2
      - do you fold them to eat them too? - groiny Feb 3, 11:05 1
        
        Yes. I fold everything I eat, no exceptions. -- nm - Krusty - Most Right Poster Feb 3, 11:21
  - I just don't know. People are weird. -- nm - Krusty - Most Right Poster Feb 3, 10:42

  - *joins Team Tim* -- nm - Baron Whitlock Feb 3, 10:48
- They are an excellent runner-up. -- nm - ty97 Feb 3, 10:39 2
  - To more thin mints? -- nm - Krusty - Most Right Poster Feb 3, 10:41 1
    - Thin mints (from the freezer, natch) are wonderful. But Samoas own. -- nm - ty97 Feb 3, 10:42
- it's a tossup between TM and Trefoils as the biggest waste of cookie space -- nm - mr. plow Feb 3, 10:38 3
  - Now you're on the list. -- nm - Krusty - Most Right Poster Feb 3, 10:59
  - what? trefoils are perfect! -- nm - amanda jonas Feb 3, 10:59 1
    - perfect if you want to get the sensation of eating a handful of sawdust -- nm - mr. plow Feb 3, 11:01
- You *are* the Most Right Poster! -- nm - David Feb 3, 10:38
Venezuela: Somalia on the Caribbean! Think of all those cruise ships you can pirate! -- nm - Mop Feb 3, 10:37
This IA tweet has come through my feed repeatedly. I think there's some logic to it, as of right now at least -- (link) - ty97 Feb 3, 10:35 11
- He lost by coin flips. But yes, things don't look good for him in the South. -- nm - Krusty - Most Right Poster Feb 3, 11:07 5
  - "So in the seven coin flips that the Iowa Democratic Party has a record of, Sanders won six of them." - mara Feb 3, 11:21
  - But I think the point here is, even if he won by 2%, the general point hold. - ty97 Feb 3, 11:16
  - And if he'd won, he'd have won by coin flips -- nm - Roger More Feb 3, 11:11 1
    - but they would have been ideologically *pure* -- nm - mr. plow Feb 3, 11:14
  - Snopes -- (link) - ty97 Feb 3, 11:08
- True, but pointless to argue, unless you want to put money on a bet. In a season where Trump stayed in + has led polls, anything is possible. - Max Feb 3, 10:51
- The logic is perfectly sound and why she's still overwhelmingly the nominee choice. - Will Hunting Feb 3, 10:39 1
  - Yup. Now, if he manages some inroads in SC and NV, we have a different story. - ty97 Feb 3, 10:40
- Yeah, people have been saying this for a bit (I thought on ST, even). -- nm - Spawn Feb 3, 10:37 1
  - But who reads ST? -- nm - ty97 Feb 3, 10:38
ML, any rumblings up there about Meyer going to the bullpen full time? -- nm - groiny Feb 3, 10:35 3
- I don't know what they have planned for him at this point. He's getting too damn old, so his star is diminishing rapidly. - ML Feb 3, 10:44 2
  - he has the stuff to be good, but his confidence is shot at this point. -- nm - groiny Feb 3, 10:46 1
    - if he can harness it, I think he's got the stuff of an elite closer -- nm - ML Feb 3, 11:34
IFLS: Germany's Fusion Reactor Creates Hydrogen Plasma In World First -- (link) - amoxy Feb 3, 10:35
🎶 Rocky top, you'll always be. Home, sweet home, to me. 🎶 -- nm - David Feb 3, 10:34 1
- corn don't grow on rocky top, ground's too rocky by far, thats why all the folks on Rocky top drink their corn from jars. -- nm - zeitgeist Feb 3, 11:15
