I took the day off today. I shopped for plants, hung out in the garden till it got hot, did the dishes, watched some TV, did some laundry. - windows jones Jul 6, 13:28 1

      - 'bout as logical as your original response. - Jovian Jul 6, 13:47 1
        
        That's... the point? -- (link) - Roger More Jul 6, 13:51 [youtube]

Who is this PoGo friend request from - ty97 Jul 6, 12:33 17
- who cares. more friends = more levels = 10k XP - oblique Jul 6, 12:35 8
  - Managing friends is difficult enough as it is -- nm - ty97 Jul 6, 12:36 7
    - It definitely needs more efficient UI -- nm - oblique Jul 6, 12:37 6
      - The UI is horrendous. -- nm - ty97 Jul 6, 12:37 5
        
        is there a way to make it open on ME, not FRIENDS? Am I missing something? -- nm - Andie Jul 6, 12:44 4
        
        oh well aren't you full of yourself! - ty97 Jul 6, 12:45 3
        
        i love you all and everything, but, that's not what i am checking most of the time. -- nm - Andie Jul 6, 12:46 2
        
        yeah, I agree. I wonder if it only defaults to friends if you have unopened gifts? - ty97 Jul 6, 12:47 1
        
        i assume most people will always have unopened gifts, at least 99% of the time. -- nm - Andie Jul 6, 12:48

Post office owes 3.5M for using the wrong Statue of Liberty -- (link) - oblique Jul 6, 12:03 10
- The whole controversy was known the day the stamp came out. Some people know the statue as much as they know their own mother's face -- nm - zeitgeist Jul 6, 13:39
- I can't believe they'd go and buy a commercially available image rather than commission their own artwork. -- nm - Meg Jul 6, 12:26 1
  - I'm sure then someone would give them shit about paying for photographers when they can just license photos :) -- nm - oblique Jul 6, 12:27
- I'd like to know this as well. I'm researching now. It doesn't make sense. -- nm - Mop Jul 6, 12:14 2
  - Here we go. The comments section on Gizmodo discuss this extensively. - Mop Jul 6, 12:16
  - The comments seem to suggest that the photographer was in the wrong because he took a picture of someone's art (statue) for sale. Getty was wrong to - oblique Jul 6, 12:15
- Think about the logic of it. "Oh, if I use a picture of the thing you made for commercial purposes, I have to pay you real money?" - Roger More Jul 6, 12:13 3
  - The issue for me was they licensed it from Getty - oblique Jul 6, 12:16 2
    - They bought a licence, but they didn't do their due diligence of what the licence allowed them to do. -- nm - Roger More Jul 6, 12:19 1
      - (I mean, they didn't even realise that the photo was not of the *real* Statue of Liberty) -- nm - Roger More Jul 6, 12:20
When I see that Mickelson is working on a $10 million match, my first thought is, "He must have a hot stock tip!" -- nm - David Jul 6, 11:58 2
- $10M is pocket change for them how bout $100M or $1B -- nm - Budice Jul 6, 12:00 1
  - I assume it's a $10M pot plus a cut of the merchandising and broadcast rights. -- nm - Mop Jul 6, 12:45
'Ant-Man and the Wasp' Delivers Strong $11.5M from Thursday Night Previews -- (link*) - Beaker Jul 6, 11:53 7

- LONG! -- nm - Spawn: SIX Time Blood Feud Champion Jul 6, 12:03
- We planned to see it tonight, and then I remembered that I had forgotten to get tickets... - IrishStephen Jul 6, 12:02 2
  - That showtime was probably added this week with the week's other releases -- nm - con_carne Jul 6, 13:25
  - SHORT! -- nm - Spawn: SIX Time Blood Feud Champion Jul 6, 12:03
- AMC fixed whatever was wrong with A-List. I got my reservations for Saturday Dolby Cinema. I've probably seen $50 worth of movies so far on my $20 - oblique Jul 6, 11:55 1
  - 👍 -- nm - JD Jul 6, 13:22
OMG..WC spoils - Budice Jul 6, 11:34 8
- About our pool: how can people that are so bad at guessing the tie breaker be so good at picking teams? :) -- nm - Guigue Jul 6, 11:47 2
  - Yes I'm wicked good at picking teams. France is awesome at headbutting, Russia is the home team, and we had a Moroccan food night a few days before. -- nm - Shaun Jul 6, 11:57

a movie called Mission Impossible 2 should not put you to sleep. - Jesus Jul 6, 11:18 12
- It had the exact same ‘twist’ three times. - Will Hunting, Emperor of Blood Feud Jul 6, 11:39 4
  - Nah, they redeemed it with the Seymour-Hoffman scene in 3. -- nm - David Jul 6, 11:41 1
    - This is true. -- nm - Beryllium Jul 6, 11:49

    - Yep -- nm - Will Hunting, Emperor of Blood Feud Jul 6, 11:44
- MI 2 is easily the worst of the series and completely over the top Woo. -- nm - not sycor Jul 6, 11:30 3
  - he just did his greatest hits with nothing new to offer -- nm - Remlik Jul 6, 11:58
  - Yep, just a waste of film. -- nm - Beryllium Jul 6, 11:34 1
    - I watched it last year, or year before last, mostly just to laugh at it. - not sycor Jul 6, 11:39
- You're a *terrible* Wolverine fan. -- nm - David Jul 6, 11:18 2
  - This is why the Superman mustache thing made me laugh. -- nm - Spawn: SIX Time Blood Feud Champion Jul 6, 12:45
  - I could not pick Dougray Scott out of a lineup. - Jesus Jul 6, 11:19

- Charlize looked *really* good in Hancock -- nm* - prayformojo Jul 6, 11:20 9
  - replace Hancock with everything - Jesus Jul 6, 11:20 8
    - I got to mom's on Tuesday and she was watching Mighty Joe Young. - Spawn: SIX Time Blood Feud Champion Jul 6, 11:27 7
      - the only real reason to watch the Devil's Advocate. -- nm - Jesus Jul 6, 11:29 6

        Blockers was a lot better than I expected it to be. -- nm - Shaun Jul 6, 11:40 4
        
        John Cena is better at comedy than I expected him to be. -- nm - Epiphany Jul 6, 11:49 3

        It would be a Bad Idea Jeans date movie today. -- nm - Max Jul 6, 11:22 6
        
        I've probably seen it five times, but I don't even remember the plot. -- nm - David Jul 6, 11:27 5
        
        In one scene he takes a very long time debating with himself whether he'll undress and have sex with Lonnie while she's passed out. - Max Jul 6, 11:31 2
        
        shows how much times have changed. -- nm - Jesus Jul 6, 11:32 1
        
        Yeah, in the good old days women never complained. And then Clinton comes along and they get to vote and it all goes down hill. -- nm - Max Jul 6, 11:35
        
        This could probably be your description of at least a thousand movies, though. -- nm - Spawn: SIX Time Blood Feud Champion Jul 6, 11:28 1
        
        You're not wrong. -- nm - David Jul 6, 11:29
