  - if she had been calling/pitching me, i would have. -- nm* - Andie Apr 4, 12:35 1

      - but I expect that it was meant as slow and drawn out -- nm - zork Apr 4, 12:54
- Her last sentence is definitely rude. -- nm - mara Apr 4, 12:11 2
  - she goes from pushy and annoying to way out of line, right? -- nm - Andie Apr 4, 12:11 1
    - Exactly. It's judgmental, and basically said with the intent to insult. -- nm - mara Apr 4, 12:17

So the National Trust in Britain is hosting an Easter Egg Hunt but they're not using the word "Easter". Cue outrage. -- (link) - Mop Apr 4, 12:04

    - They deserve that haunting. -- nm - David Apr 4, 11:53 1
      - They got in the way of a scheme! -- nm - Reagen Apr 4, 11:55

- Simpsons did it -- nm - Beaker Apr 4, 11:37 3
  - This was my thought. I only remember the ending because of The Simpsons. -- nm - Mop Apr 4, 11:49
  - That episode had maybe the darkest Simpsons joke ever. - David Apr 4, 11:42 1

        I assume everyone is getting Destiny 2, I think i'll get it from the beginning this time instead of trying to avoid it -- nm - J Apr 4, 11:41 3

        Ok cool -- nm - J Apr 4, 11:50
I don't really like obvious heel David. He was way more fun as a tweener with questionable motives. -- nm - Qale Apr 4, 11:31 2
- I thought David was a Generation X slacker who did tech support for TiVo from home. -- nm - ReluctantCynic Apr 4, 11:38
- "This is my yard now." -- nm - David Apr 4, 11:32
YDon'tC: I landed and started a new job two weeks ago. -- nm - zork Apr 4, 11:29 12

- Congrats! Best of luck! -- nm - Krusty Apr 4, 11:30
- hopefully it's an improvement over the last job :) -- nm - decline Apr 4, 11:30 2
  - Yeah. Even though I was at the last place for 15 years, there were lots of people who had 10 years on me - zork Apr 4, 11:40 1
    - very nice -- nm - decline Apr 4, 11:41
David, you should post the hiding place of Kim's gift here in case you forget where you put it -- nm - zork Apr 4, 11:23 1
- By the refrigerator, right under the cabinet where she gets her Tervis glass each day. - David Apr 4, 11:40

- Well, those are election difference numbers so it could go back and forth a few times. -- nm - zork Apr 4, 11:27
Invincible comic series by Rovert Kirkman to by Seth Rogen and Evan Goldberg for the movies -- (link) - Remlik Apr 4, 11:18 2
- I am OK with this, especially with how well they did with Preacher; but I'd of preferred a TV series -- nm* - Beaker Apr 4, 11:24 1
  - Agreed. A TV series could have been great. A movie will be good, at best. -- nm - Spawn Apr 4, 12:57
Vault of Glass is the featured raid this week. Templar challenge was very guessable (no teleports) but Atheon's challenge...not so much. - Shaun Apr 4, 11:13
Melania Trump's official portrait as First Lady is....not good. -- (link*) - znufrii, definitely not 40 Apr 4, 11:09 56
- Looks normal to me. Barbara Bush's looks like it was rushed, and Laura Bush looks like she's waggling her eyebrows in an un-Lady-like fashion. -- nm - Max Apr 4, 12:35
- Very unfair. -- nm - Shaun Apr 4, 11:33 35
  - Against the other pictures, it's very fair -- nm - J Apr 4, 11:38 6
    - she was a model, of course her photo is gonna look way different than the others. -- nm - groiny Apr 4, 11:40 5
      - I just think a First Lady portrait should be more pleasant and not so much "come at me bro" -- nm - J Apr 4, 11:45 3
        
        I don't disagree, but go look at model photos, they all look like that. -- nm - groiny Apr 4, 11:46 2
        
        True but this isn't a "model" photo -- nm - J Apr 4, 11:49 1
        
        she is what she is. - groiny Apr 4, 11:51
      - it's a little harder in tone (the black clothes, the graphic background), but that just makes it different, not bad. -- nm - Andie Apr 4, 11:44
  - people always gonna find fault with anyone connected with the donald -- nm - groiny Apr 4, 11:33 27
    - this is the internet, that sort of behavior predates political Donald -- nm - crash davis Apr 4, 11:36 25
      - yes and no. There is nothing wrong with that photo, other than she is the hottest 1st lady in a long time. - groiny Apr 4, 11:39 24
        
        Michelle is beautiful. It hasn't been long, just three months. -- nm* - Krusty Apr 4, 11:53 5
        
        Michelle is Lana from Archer. -- nm - groiny Apr 4, 11:59 3
        
        Both sexy. -- nm - Krusty Apr 4, 12:39 2
        
        if you like big hands, she could palm a basketball and have room for a few apples in there too. -- nm - groiny Apr 4, 12:41
        
        Yes but I prefer Lana/Aisha -- nm - zork Apr 4, 12:41
        
        *finger to nose* -- nm - Mel Profit Apr 4, 11:57
        
        I'm not finding fault with her but I can find fault with the photo. I'd have gone for a different outfit, different pose, and avoid whatever makes her - crash davis Apr 4, 11:42 2
        
        she posed like a model poses. The others are more natural looking. - groiny Apr 4, 11:44 1
        
        They're not all Zoolander. Some of them have multiple poses. That pose is 'Hollywood Executive". I'd avoid it -- nm - crash davis Apr 4, 11:46
        
        I honestly don't find her attractive. - Reagen Apr 4, 11:41 14
        
        compared to the other photos, if you do not have her ranked as #1, I can't help you. -- nm - groiny Apr 4, 11:43 13
        
        Because that's the #1 thing we want from a First Lady. -- nm - znufrii, definitely not 40 Apr 4, 11:46 12
        
        I want a First Lady who isn't a joke. Given they have no authority and very limited power, who gives a shit if she's hot (yes) or whatnot? - Will Hunting, King of ST Brackets Apr 4, 11:55 8
        
        I am certainly not saying she is the best 1st lady, but to say she is not attractive is just crazy. - groiny Apr 4, 11:59 7
        
        I'm more concerned about how much kale she eats in the run of the week. That's my concern. - Shaun Apr 4, 12:02
        
        End of the day, this is a non-factor. I just find it amazing that 5 women on ST said below, "Okay photo"... - Will Hunting, King of ST Brackets Apr 4, 12:01 5
        
        *punches you in the jimmy* - groiny Apr 4, 12:04 4
        
        *wonders what would have been the issue had I been responding initially to you in a sarcastic manner instead of to znufrii* - Will Hunting, King of ST Brackets Apr 4, 12:09 3
        
        I just had to punch someone. -- nm - groiny Apr 4, 12:09 2
        
        Oh, in that case... - Will Hunting, King of ST Brackets Apr 4, 12:12 1
        
        like that would make them any worse. -- nm - groiny Apr 4, 12:13
        
        jesus man, he is commenting on her attractiveness, not her SAT score. - groiny Apr 4, 11:47 2
        
        OK - znufrii, definitely not 40 Apr 4, 11:55 1
        
        I will just leave it on your upper lip. -- nm - groiny Apr 4, 11:57
    - Very unfair. -- nm - Shaun Apr 4, 11:36
- She changed her name? -- nm - zork Apr 4, 11:24 3
  - Autocorrect did. -- nm - znufrii, definitely not 40 Apr 4, 11:26 2
    - What was Autocorrect named before? -- nm - zork Apr 4, 11:27 1
      - spellnazi -- nm - crash davis Apr 4, 11:29
- All the others look more natural, this one looks standoffish -- nm - J Apr 4, 11:22 2
  - looks like she wants to give me a good spankin' -- nm - Beaker Apr 4, 11:25
  - which probably means that Donald picked out this one for her. -- nm - zork Apr 4, 11:25
- I'm neither for it or against it. She could have had a better photo but its okayish -- nm - crash davis Apr 4, 11:16
- I don't really understand the objections to this photo, but whatever. -- nm - mara Apr 4, 11:12 7
  - It was okay to me too -- nm - Epiphany Apr 4, 11:52
  - Me either. -- nm - Callisto Buffalomeat Apr 4, 11:43
  - It's fine. Clearly touched up. But she looks glamorous. -- nm - Mop Apr 4, 11:32
  - yup -- nm - Beaker Apr 4, 11:24
  - it's a little overly airbrushed, but, that's not that big a deal. -- nm* - Andie Apr 4, 11:24
  - me neither. dc -- nm - Diva Apr 4, 11:14 1
    - Someone went really heavy handed on the smoothing tool. Where are her pores? -- nm - Spawn Apr 4, 11:16
- at least her tits aren't out. -- nm - groiny Apr 4, 11:10 2
  - ... are you feeling okay? -- nm - Spawn Apr 4, 11:17 1
    - she got that Trump stank on her. -- nm - groiny Apr 4, 11:23
Is the office, like, the other room? -- nm - Spawn Apr 4, 11:08 1
- bathroom, he does his best work in there -- nm - groiny Apr 4, 11:09
