      - Oh, OK - con_carne Apr 23, 14:39 1
        
        No, I've always been this unoriginal. -- nm - Tim Apr 23, 14:44

It boggles my mind that people thought Stacy was fake. - Dano Apr 23, 14:28 57
- It boggles my mind that people clicked a post she labeled "tmi." -- nm - the wrong element, bad guy Apr 23, 14:42 1
  - Are you referring to that infamous TMI? - con_carne Apr 23, 14:46
- Really. I mean, we all know people like her. nm - Dignan Apr 23, 14:34 14
  - Yep -- nm - Loyola Apr 23, 14:42
  - Uh, maybe my cirlce of friends isn't large enough....but I don't. -- nm - Stephen Apr 23, 14:41 8
    - she wouldn't necessarily be in that circle. - Reagen Apr 23, 14:44 7
      - My school had the guy who was the inspiration behind "Six Degrees of Separation". He was in my homeroom class. -- nm - Diva Apr 23, 14:47 6
        
        Sure it did. - Reagen Apr 23, 14:47 5
        
        Ha! -- nm - con_carne Apr 23, 14:49
        
        glad you posted it. - Mel Profit Apr 23, 14:48 2
        
        He went to City Honors in Buffalo NY back in the 80's. He was there for one year and got kicked out for never going to class. - Diva Apr 23, 14:51 1
        
        I was kidding! -- nm - Mel Profit Apr 23, 14:55
        
        Really! Like anyone's going to believe that! -- nm - mara Apr 23, 14:48
  - is that "people like her" or "people like her"? -- nm - marcel Apr 23, 14:40
  - I don't -- nm - CQ Apr 23, 14:38 2
    - In your life? nm - Dignan Apr 23, 14:42 1
      - Honestly, no one comes to mind. -- nm - CQ Apr 23, 14:44
- yah. - b! Apr 23, 14:32
- There's a reason she stands out from the pack... - Stephen Apr 23, 14:32
- maybe we're all just the invention of one beautiful mind .. -- nm - marcel Apr 23, 14:31 3
  - I've often had the same thoughts in regards to non-linear reincarnation. - znufrii Apr 23, 14:37 1
    - cute. That'd be one sick sunnofabtch, though. -- nm - Beryllium Apr 23, 14:38
  - *gets nervous* -- nm - con_carne Apr 23, 14:32
- the PhD candidate who can't spell and gets suckered over and over is extremely incongruous. -- nm - Max Apr 23, 14:31 22
  - she's a real person who makes things up. that doesn't add up to a fake person. -- nm - loosilu Apr 23, 14:32 21
    - Well, her being a fake person has been ruled out, her being a person who is a fake hasn't been :) -- nm - Stephen Apr 23, 14:33 19
      - I don't even know you people any more. of course she makes things up. -- nm - loosilu Apr 23, 14:34 18
        
        exactly. - b! Apr 23, 14:39 3
        
        As a community of friends I don't think it's normal to look the other way when being lied to. - Stephen Apr 23, 14:43 2
        
        there's doubt and calling out, and then there's what some have done here. - b! Apr 23, 14:49
        
        The thing is not everyone in the community is "friends" - Subversive Apr 23, 14:47
        
        What do you mean of course? As if that's normal? (nm) - Stephen Apr 23, 14:37 4
        
        I think she means it's obvious from what she's said. -- nm - mara Apr 23, 14:38
        
        I mean, I don't think anyone thought everything she said wsa true. -- nm - loosilu Apr 23, 14:38 2
        
        Ok. But I don't see how you (not you specifically, but maybe?) can defend her when she continues to do so when she knows how it will be received. -- nm - Stephen Apr 23, 14:46 1
        
        I don't know what you mean exactly. I think people are way too hard on her. That doesn't mean I think - loosilu Apr 23, 14:47
        
        so someone named stacy making things up is real, someone with a different name who makes up one more thing (the name) isn't. -- nm - Andie - get well Amoxy! Apr 23, 14:36 8
        
        the rumor (as I understand) is that *someone we already know* was posing as "Stacy". -- nm - loosilu Apr 23, 14:37 7
        
        Right. A lot of people thought it was a long con. nm - Dignan Apr 23, 14:41
        
        there was that, and there was a more generally accepted 'the whole deal can't be real' group. -- nm - Andie - get well Amoxy! Apr 23, 14:41
        
        there have been many posts about that here, even some today. -- nm - b! Apr 23, 14:40
        
        I thought that was an offshoot theory. Besides, person/persona/tomato/tomahto - I think the thing is that people generally don't like being lied to - Diva Apr 23, 14:40 2
        
        welcome to the Internet, you know?" -- nm - loosilu Apr 23, 14:40 1
        
        i have different expectations for different places on it. - b! Apr 23, 14:43
        
        Yeah, that was what started the whole dumb thing, I think. -- nm - Beryllium Apr 23, 14:40
    - it does add up to a fake persona. - Andie - get well Amoxy! Apr 23, 14:33
- At best, she's an inveterate liar. -- nm - David Apr 23, 14:30 8
  - or insanely gullible. -- nm - Reagen Apr 23, 14:32
  - there have been numerous times various ST/TT people were rumored to be fake, and those rumors have been wrong every time. -- nm - loosilu Apr 23, 14:32 6
    - and yet, they weren't. - Andie - get well Amoxy! Apr 23, 14:34 5
      - Me to Kim that day: "Call the hospital. They won't be there and there won't be any record." - David Apr 23, 14:36
      - they were (and are) real people with a fake story. -- nm - loosilu Apr 23, 14:35 3
        
        ...as opposed to the theory I heard, which was "Samara is a character created by Skags." -- nm - loosilu Apr 23, 14:39 2
        
        you are splitting straws here. -- nm - Andie - get well Amoxy! Apr 23, 14:45 1
        
        I really don't think so. That theory was touted very strongly. Even right now I have to insist that Samara was not a creation of skags. -- nm - loosilu Apr 23, 14:46
- it sometimes seemed to over the top to be true -- nm - Epiphany Apr 23, 14:30 1
  - she's not even close to the most over the top person I've met on line. - loosilu Apr 23, 14:30
Apropos of nothing, I heard that the upcoming Alice in Chains CD is the best rock album of the last ten years. - Dignan Apr 23, 14:27 5
- only somewhat related -- (link) - zork Apr 23, 14:43 [Backboard]
- reading the wiki I now feel...OLD - Mel Profit Apr 23, 14:35 2
  - I knew they were touring with a new singer, sure. But had no idea they were recording new material. -- nm - con_carne Apr 23, 14:36 1
    - the stuff from '05 comes as a total shock. -- nm - Mel Profit Apr 23, 14:38
- It would be awesome if that were the case. -- nm - TFox Apr 23, 14:32
Andie - yeah, there are drainage holes in the cups. -- nm - kelly Apr 23, 14:25 8
- cool. then, like i said, you just probably won't see much growth till the get outside and can really spread their roots and grow. -- nm - Andie - get well Amoxy! Apr 23, 14:27
- I find that peppers are really sensitive to the amount of space they have. - Reagen Apr 23, 14:27 6
  - I am a gardening novice. I tend to kill everything before it gets this far, too. - kelly Apr 23, 14:30 5
    - oh, no you really don't. i did container gardening the last 4 years. - Andie - get well Amoxy! Apr 23, 14:31 2
      - Okay, that's good to know. I'll transplant them into something bigger this weekend. (Thanks to you and Reagen for your help.) -- nm - kelly Apr 23, 14:34 1
        
        (remember to shelter them if the weather is going to be extreme. and really, i cannot reccomend that book enough.) -- nm - Andie - get well Amoxy! Apr 23, 14:35
    - that's a lot of transplanting to do. - Reagen Apr 23, 14:31
    - me too - I forget and leave my sprinkler on all the time -- nm - Epiphany Apr 23, 14:31
I kinda like the Gin Blossoms. -- nm - CQ Apr 23, 14:25 8
- If I have any say in the matter (and I like to think that I have God's ear,) all y'all are going to be Left Behind. nm - Dignan Apr 23, 14:32
- I kinda of liked Tonic - that album they put out - pretty good over all - Epiphany Apr 23, 14:32
- I loved their first album. -- nm - Subversive Apr 23, 14:27 1
  - Of course you did. That's because that is where all but one of their hits are. -- nm - Qale Apr 23, 14:32
- and I'll admit it...I liked that Tonic hit single... -- nm - Mel Profit Apr 23, 14:26 2
  - Hey, I liked "Shimmer" by Fuel too. Hell, I loved it. - TFox Apr 23, 14:27 1
    - It's not like I'll be going to the Tonic show and throwing my used panties on stage... -- nm - Mel Profit Apr 23, 14:41
- *high five* -- nm - Dano Apr 23, 14:26
Stephen, I probably will still be in intensive care and I doubt kids that young are allowed - amoxy Apr 23, 14:24 2
- ah, ok. I'll check with them, If they aren't i'll drop him off at his grandma's. - Stephen Apr 23, 14:26
- any ideas when they'll spring you? -- nm - mary land loves manndy lane Apr 23, 14:24
I'm really glad that Stacy finally found a girl for her in Amoxy. -- nm - Qale Apr 23, 14:23
You know who else was real? -- nm - Dano Apr 23, 14:22 6
- The Gin Blossoms? -- nm - Reagen Apr 23, 14:26
- but what about spectacular? -- nm - zork Apr 23, 14:24
- Pol Pot -- nm - Loyola Apr 23, 14:23

sitwap: Jay Leno hospitalized...Tonight Show canceled for tonight -- (link) - Remlik Apr 23, 14:21 13
- ryan reynolds!! get Jay's ass back to the studio! -- nm - Epiphany Apr 23, 14:37
- i thought he had finished doing the show already, guess not. -- nm - zork Apr 23, 14:22 3
  - He's still going for a while. - the wrong element, bad guy Apr 23, 14:27 2
    - I'd watch 5 hours of Chuck. -- nm - Beryllium Apr 23, 14:28
    - i must be thinking about Conan having finished his show -- nm - zork Apr 23, 14:28
- Maybe if it's canceled for good, Chuck will get a second season. - the wrong element, bad guy Apr 23, 14:22 2
  - uh, you mean a third season? -- nm - Beryllium Apr 23, 14:22 1
    - I really meant "another," but, yeah. - the wrong element, bad guy Apr 23, 14:24
- wait, amoxy is Jay Leno? - Beryllium Apr 23, 14:22
- Clearly he can't handle 5 days a week any more and NBC shouldn't give him the 10pm slot. - Will Hunting Apr 23, 14:21 3
  - i wish jay well, but i would appreciate him not being on 5 days. -- nm - b! Apr 23, 14:23 2
    - agreed. - Beryllium Apr 23, 14:25 1
      - when he first took over from johnny, he was pretty good. - b! Apr 23, 14:27
Zork: My coworker thought that was so reporters could ask questions. My response? - Beryllium Apr 23, 14:20 1
- heh. -- nm - zork Apr 23, 14:21
"hitler wasn't *all* bad..." -- nm - mary land loves manndy lane Apr 23, 14:20 2
- I had a loud teenage girl patron the other day who proclaimed to me "Hitler was a genius, but he was crrrazy." -- nm - mara Apr 23, 14:31 1
  - Not sure what the issue is there. - Will Hunting Apr 23, 14:42
The guy who had the Matt Cassel trade first is saying... - David Apr 23, 14:19 3
- he must be good if he gets his scoop from the radio -- nm - Stewie Apr 23, 14:26
- They'd give up on the #4 pick from last year that quick? -- nm - Will Hunting Apr 23, 14:20 1
  - I have to think no, but given their switch to the 3-4, who knows? -- nm - David Apr 23, 14:21
Next: Skagnetti/Samara. nm - Dignan Apr 23, 14:19 5
- Samara: verified real. -- nm - loosilu Apr 23, 14:21 3
