- yeah I was let go. Nothing to be bitter about, it's a budget thing, so please no cussing in the FB thread, since I might work there again... - Remlik Apr 28, 13:20 5

    - it was literally 4 hours a week that I worked there, except in Dec and Jan when it was 25 hours a week as fill in. No worries. -- nm - Remlik Apr 28, 13:22
- I'm thinking he might know this. -- nm - Spawn Apr 28, 13:17

    - (Remlik) joins the others as a Q95/X103 Alumnus now. Had a great time working there. -- nm - Andie Apr 28, 13:19 4
      - Aw man, that's the suck. I honestly think Clear Channel is trying staff all radio stations with robot drones controlled by a boss robot hidden in an - Trish Apr 28, 13:22 2
        
        it's all part of a national and regional programming initative. Soo...more voice tracking! -- nm - Remlik Apr 28, 13:23 1
        
        You should gather a strike force and take out the boss-bot. - Trish Apr 28, 13:28

Sort of topical. The Who, My generation. -- (link) - Loyola Apr 28, 13:10 [youtube]
have we ever invented drinks for ourselves? mine is obvs the mandy lane. it's a salty dog with seltzer to lighten it up and a lime garnish. -- nm - mary land loves mandy lane Apr 28, 13:09 16
- The Miguelito (clever pun huh): Somehow a mojito mixed with excessive amounts of vodka and still tasty -- nm - MDH Apr 28, 13:20 1

- Sometime called "mara juice," the screw buddy (or fuck buddy or nutty buddy) is amaretto, sloe gin, orange juice, and white soda. -- nm - mara Apr 28, 13:10 3
  - why do i feel like mara has a whole other whips-the-librarian-glasses-off-and-turns-int o-a-wildcat life she doesn't tell us about? -- nm - Andie Apr 28, 13:12 2
    - I do, dumbass. -- nm - mara si Apr 28, 13:13
    - psychic powers? -- nm - Roger More Apr 28, 13:13
Why did today wait until now to get totally fucking annoying? -- nm - TFox Apr 28, 13:07 1

WHO says flu can no longer be contained. -- (link) - loosilu Apr 28, 13:03 12
- I did? -- nm - The Doctor Apr 28, 13:09 2
  - maybe it was another one of you. - loosilu Apr 28, 13:09 1
    - Welll...I've always though I was clever. -- nm - The Doctor Apr 28, 13:12
- The WHO? -- nm - Loyola Apr 28, 13:06
- *I* say flu can no longer be contained, dumbass! -- nm - mary land loves mandy lane Apr 28, 13:04

  - I just want to know the name of the guy who says the swine flu can't be contained. - Lou Costello Apr 28, 13:09
  - this joke still isn't dead, huh? -- nm - loosilu Apr 28, 13:05 4

    - Like the WWF/WWF ... - Beryllium Apr 28, 13:06 2
      - except that was kinda funny. :) -- nm - loosilu Apr 28, 13:07 1
        
        well, true. I would still like to see a Panda V. Hulkster match. -- nm - Beryllium Apr 28, 13:07

- did you give them a timelime to respond? -- nm - tRuMaN Apr 28, 13:01 2

  - "You have 72 hours to accept. Unless you need longer." -- nm - Spawn Apr 28, 13:02
- Of *course* they are going to make you sweat. -- nm - Spawn Apr 28, 13:00
how about the person we find least frustrating/easiest to deal with? - kare Apr 28, 12:53 33
- besides myself? - znufrii, not dead Apr 28, 13:20
- my friend karen. she is even more easygoing than *you* -- I wonder if it's the name. -- nm - mary land loves mandy lane Apr 28, 13:07 20
  - kare is easygoing? she can have quite the temper. -- nm - loosilu Apr 28, 13:08 18
    - I think the whole "short fuse" analogy is wrong. I think of human interaction as binary pairs; each pair has its own fuse length. - Beryllium Apr 28, 13:10 1
      - I very much agree. With some people I have a short fuse. with others I couldn't fight if I tried. -- nm - loosilu Apr 28, 13:11
    - compared to *who*? - Andie Apr 28, 13:09 15
      - let's say, Callisto. (just pulled out of the air) -- nm - loosilu Apr 28, 13:10 14
        
        You people haven't seen super-hormonal Callisto. She's a mini-Cloverfield Monster. -- nm - David Apr 28, 13:19

        A fight to determine who's the most mellow? Hmmm... -- nm - Roger More Apr 28, 13:14 2
        
        All irony aside, it says something to me that kare hasn't responded. -- nm - Inigo Apr 28, 13:16 1
        
        word -- nm - Spawn Apr 28, 13:19
        
        ... I don't see how this can end well. - Beryllium Apr 28, 13:11 7
        
        very true. all I meant was kare is pretty feisty at times. -- nm - loosilu Apr 28, 13:12 6
        
        over what, for instance? -- nm - mary land loves mandy lane Apr 28, 13:14 3
        
        I'm just saying, it would be kind of silly to explore the topic of "what pushes people's buttons", ya know? :) -- nm - Beryllium Apr 28, 13:15 2
        
        we all have a good idea of how to do that for each other. -- nm - loosilu Apr 28, 13:16 1
        
        exactly, that's why we shouldn't have a meta-discussion about it :) -- nm - Beryllium Apr 28, 13:17
        
        Hmm. As far as connotations go, feisty is way more complimentary than untempered :) -- nm - Beryllium Apr 28, 13:13 1
        
        As a feisty girl, I agree. -- nm - loosilu Apr 28, 13:14
  - oh, or maybe head. -- nm - mary land loves mandy lane Apr 28, 13:07
- My aunt/best friend. -- nm - kelly Apr 28, 13:06
- Yes. You should be very thankful :) -- nm - Stephen Apr 28, 12:57
- I wouldn't say so. Good for you. -- nm - Loyola Apr 28, 12:57
- me. -- nm - Stephen Apr 28, 12:56
- my wife. There really is no comparison. I have witnesses -- nm - Terence Trent Darby Apr 28, 12:54 3
  - come to think of it though, i don't think my bf would say it's me. heh. -- nm - kare Apr 28, 13:00 1
    - I don't think she'd say it is me either. :) -- nm - CQ Apr 28, 13:05
  - sfan -- nm - CQ Apr 28, 12:54
- e. none of the above -- nm - Beaker Apr 28, 12:54

nice little blog from ECW Original Tommy Dreamer on his perhaps last ever match in MSG... -- (link) - Remlik Apr 28, 12:50

- I suppose I deserve it for even daring to bring up the topic here anymore, but whatever. -- nm - znufrii, not dead Apr 28, 13:22
- ST's answer to Ike and Tina Turner. -- nm - David Apr 28, 12:51 10
  - [deleted] 6
    - Because Tina went on to have an extremely successful career on her own, so her story is inspiring -- nm - con_carne Apr 28, 12:58 5
      - This is true. These guys are closer to being the OJ and well, you know. -- nm - David Apr 28, 12:59
      - so which one is tina? Jack or Znufrii? -- nm - Beryllium Apr 28, 12:59 3
        
        Let them catfight. Whichever one flinches first is Tina. -- nm - Inigo Apr 28, 13:02 1
        
        I think this needed a "groiny si" or something -- nm - Beryllium Apr 28, 13:03
        
        [deleted]
  - as long as it's not Bobby and Whitney -- nm - Beryllium Apr 28, 12:52 2
    - Joe Gillis and Norma Desmond -- nm - Roger More Apr 28, 12:54 1
      - There should be an 'or' in front of that post -- nm - Roger More Apr 28, 12:55
- Yeah, I thought it was supposed to be done by now, unless there is a problem? - Spawn Apr 28, 12:50 22

    - I have seen two kinds of divorces. Easy ones and hard ones. The easy take place in a Waffle House, with just two people. - Spawn Apr 28, 12:59 15
      - i never understood the point of fighting a divorce. what, you think it's all going to magically work out at this point? - Andie Apr 28, 13:04 9
        
        I blame women's lib - con_carne Apr 28, 13:06 3
        
        : ) -- nm - Andie Apr 28, 13:07 2
        
        I was working on a serious answer, too: divorce battle is a luxury not everyone can afford, so the logic escapes me. *Custody*, on the other hand - con_carne Apr 28, 13:09 1
        
        And, of course, the worst thing is when the children are used as weapons to inflict pain. -- nm - Beryllium Apr 28, 13:14
        
        It's like fighting a job action "to get your job back" ... it just creates strife. -- nm - Beryllium Apr 28, 13:05 3
        
        exactly - and do you WANT to go back to work there? no. -- nm - Andie Apr 28, 13:06 2
        
        it's revenge. -- nm - loosilu Apr 28, 13:08
        
        Right! You just know that it completely sours things. -- nm - Beryllium Apr 28, 13:07
        
        I think the point is to inflict pain. -- nm - loosilu Apr 28, 13:04
      - or you can walk counterclockwise around someone saying "I divorce you" three times! -- nm - mary land loves mandy lane Apr 28, 13:02 1
        
        Everything is better with waffles. I learned this from my son. -- nm - Spawn Apr 28, 13:03
      - it sounds like there might be a third kind, the New York Divorce ... -- nm - Beryllium Apr 28, 13:01 2
        
        I don't think so. I would bet money that she is messing this up and znu is too kind/annoyed to say anything to ST. -- nm - Spawn Apr 28, 13:11 1
        
        Quite within the realm of possibility. -- nm - Beryllium Apr 28, 13:11
    - The 5th of what? SoCo? Vodka? Tequila? -- nm - Inigo Apr 28, 12:58 4

        i swear i'm making those this weekend. -- nm - Andie Apr 28, 13:02 2
        
        They shall be featured at the 'CABRA party! -- nm - Spawn Apr 28, 13:03 1
        
        *makes note* -- nm - Andie Apr 28, 13:04
I think what were seeing with the swine flu same thing we saw a few years ago with the bird flu - eag Apr 28, 12:44 10
- The end times are near? - Spawn Apr 28, 13:01 2
  - Im still not interested in the star trek movie - eag Apr 28, 13:11 1
    - I could ring your neck. -- nm - Spawn Apr 28, 13:13
- I disagree. The bird flu never spread between humans, or recombined. This has done both. It has gone two more steps. - loosilu Apr 28, 12:45 6
  - geez, was someone sleeping with their pig or something? -- nm - Beryllium Apr 28, 12:46 5
    - it mixes in the pigs. -- nm - loosilu Apr 28, 12:47
    - in Mexico? - TFox Apr 28, 12:47 3

        somewhere a member of PETA just cried out in pain -- nm - Beaker Apr 28, 12:53 1
        
        ... because the calf bit him? -- nm - Beryllium Apr 28, 12:54
LIR: It also helps that our lunch truck has a years-long relationship with my company. We're like family. -- nm - con_carne Apr 28, 12:44 5
- "... and ... you don't eat family." -- nm - zombie con_carne si Apr 28, 12:46 4
  - Well, today they did offer cabeza - con_carne Apr 28, 12:47 3
    - ugh -- nm - Epiphany Apr 28, 12:52 2
      - I think a lot of the menu is comfort food for the clientele - con_carne Apr 28, 12:56 1
        
        Fun observation: The Mexicans never order burritos, except when fried. Burros are always for the desk jockeys or students like me. -- nm - con_carne Apr 28, 13:01
I suppose I should apologize for my agreeable mood today ... the strata meeting went well last night. :) -- nm - Beryllium Apr 28, 12:43
Well? -- nm - Spawn Apr 28, 12:42 6
- Peter Michael apparently is in top consideration! -- nm - Remlik Apr 28, 12:48
- The Deeper Well, the hole in the world. -- nm - David Apr 28, 12:45
- [deleted]
- wish upon it -- nm - Terence Trent Darby Apr 28, 12:43
- I *think* it might be LL Cool J. Can we rewind it to find out for sure? -- nm - Beryllium Apr 28, 12:42
- Top shelf. -- nm - znufrii, not dead Apr 28, 12:42
