- That is why I prefer funeral homes. -- nm - Spawn Mar 10, 07:22 5
  - well, this was at the actual graveyard. -- nm - groiny Mar 10, 07:25 4
    - Graveside service, or in a building? -- nm - Spawn Mar 10, 07:47 3
      - in the building, they had a small mini church thing in there. -- nm - groiny Mar 10, 07:48 2
        
        Ah, okay. I have never been to one like that. The funeral takes place before the trip to the cemetery and then there is a brief graveside service. -- nm - Spawn Mar 10, 07:52 1
        
        yup, they do a mass in the church, then travel to the cemetary and do a small - groiny Mar 10, 07:56
- Similar thing happened at my grandmother's memorial service, but it was because a legit crazy lady wanted to talk about her own problems for fifteen minutes. -- (edited) - znufrii, definitely not 40 Mar 10, 07:07 10
  - i did tell you all the TomCattt spoke for over 35 minutes at his father's memorial last month? -- (edited) - Andie Mar 10, 07:14 9
    - I...do not. - znufrii, definitely not 40 Mar 10, 07:24 5

  - Nope, just nuns. -- nm - Krusty Mar 10, 07:00
  - Catholic no. Episcopal and many (most? all?) other Christian religions, yes. -- nm - ty97 Mar 10, 06:59 2
    - Isn't Mrs. Disney being ordained this month? -- nm - Meg Mar 10, 07:41

Early indications are for a Nor'easter on Tuesday that may bring over a foot of snow to the North East -- nm - decline Mar 10, 06:27 8

New info regarding the combat for the Final Fantasy VII remake. -- (link) - Shaun Mar 10, 06:19 8
- They just released FF15 but they're remaking FF7? What am I missing? Was #7 the best of them all with people begging for a modern remake? -- nm - Krusty Mar 10, 06:21 7
  - "The PlayStation console saw the release of three main Final Fantasy games. The 1997 title Final Fantasy VII moved away from the two-dimensional..." - Spawn Mar 10, 07:44
  - FF7 is arguably the best RPG of all-time and yes, fans have wanted a remake for a LONG time. -- nm* - Shaun Mar 10, 06:31 5
    - I don't remember which one was 7, but I know I played 7, and I am pretty sure I loved it. -- nm - groiny Mar 10, 06:48
    - As someone that's only played FF15 it seemed odd to read a story about remaking a game from the middle of the series. I get it if it's the best one - Krusty Mar 10, 06:33 3
      - None of the games are connected at all, if that's what you are confused about. -- (edited) - Shaun Mar 10, 06:41 2
        
        It just seemed odd to go back and remake a game. I could see it if the IP was dead and they were trying to revive it. - Krusty Mar 10, 06:46 1
        
        Skyrim was just released as a remastered game, and it was not that old. -- nm - groiny Mar 10, 06:52

  - You worded it better. -- nm - LMS Mar 10, 05:54 1
    - I just copy and pasted. -- nm - Remlik Mar 10, 05:56
  - If it makes you feel better, I prefer your headline. -- nm - volnelk Mar 10, 05:53
I'm surprised this doesn't happen more often. Children interrupt BBC News interview -- (link) - LMS Mar 10, 05:45

- Is it March? Are you mad? -- nm - znufrii, definitely not 40 Mar 10, 06:23 1
  - in a bar in February a few years ago, a guy tried to start a conversation with me by pointing at basketball on TV and asking if that was March madness - colin Mar 10, 06:53
- Depends on your definition. Teams are currently playing tournamnet games, that for some, are their only chance to make the tourney. - volnelk Mar 10, 06:15 1
  - Right, it's not March Madness but Championship Week where teams have conference tournaments before the big one next week. -- nm - Krusty Mar 10, 06:27
- Nope, not yet. Selection Sunday is this Sunday and it starts next Thursday with games from noon to midnight. -- nm* - Krusty Mar 10, 05:51 11
  - (Tuesday w/ the play-in games) -- nm - decline Mar 10, 05:54 10

        Tourney snob -- nm - decline Mar 10, 06:21 7
        
        I guess but they're not in. I hate that they do this to teams. Set the field at 64 and just start on Thursday. -- nm - Krusty Mar 10, 06:22 6
        
        Hosting the "First Four" games has meant big money for Dayton, I know that much. But yeah, it's stupid. -- nm - volnelk Mar 10, 06:30 5
        
        I'm sure and they can be fun games but it's not right to those teams. Either they played well enough to qualify or they're headed here for the NIT. -- nm - Krusty Mar 10, 06:32 4
        
        Though the bubble teams playing for 10-11, I have the unresearched feeling that at least one of them goes on to win -- (edited) - JD Mar 10, 06:53 3
        
        If you're a 10 or 11 seed you shouldn't have to play your way in when you've had a whole season to show why you belong. - Krusty Mar 10, 06:58
        
        Oh...And for the other side (16s) they got there by being the conf rep for conf that has an autobid.. They're not necessarily going to NIT -- nm - JD Mar 10, 06:56 1
        
        And if you won your conference title you should be in and not playing to get in. They should just end it already. Set the field and play the games. - Krusty Mar 10, 07:00
Emily and Tyler are the team to beat in this season's "Face-Off". (spoilers) -- (edited) - Mel Profit Mar 10, 05:31
groiny - re: excel. I actually tried that on a different tab (I didn't overwrite as you mentioned but it should have done the same thing). It didn't - Mel Profit Mar 10, 05:18 1

Because of course...pick up an external hard drive for the PS4 on my way home....PS4 won't recognize it....my two computers won't recognize it. - IrishStephen Mar 9, 22:31 2

  - Yeah, I'm kind of proud of myself, though, it only took me two hours of trying to figure it out before giving up in frustration. - IrishStephen Mar 9, 23:10

    - Beauty and the Beast. -- nm - Inigo Mar 10, 05:44 2
      - But I feel like they would've announced that already if that was the case. Maybe teaser on BB and trailer on Pirates? -- nm* - volnelk Mar 10, 05:53 1
        
        I need something. anything. just like 30secs. Then I'll be fine. -- nm - Mel Profit Mar 10, 06:15
