- this rain is crazy -- nm - decline Aug 13, 06:38 5
  - 76 is flooded at 202, which is where I’m stuck. -- nm - znufrii Aug 13, 06:44 4

        maybe we can scoop it up and move it to California with my Space Force! -- nm - Trump Aug 13, 07:06
The last day I worked was Thursday August 2. Guess how many unread emails I have this morning? -- nm - Andie Aug 13, 06:07 11
- It's over 9000!!!! -- nm - Qale Aug 13, 06:49
- I will have more than that, I’m sure. - znufrii Aug 13, 06:26
- (also, welcome back!) -- nm - ty97 Aug 13, 06:22

  - *mark All as Read* all done -- nm - Budice Aug 13, 06:48
  - Can you hire me? - ty97 Aug 13, 06:23
  - that is insanity! -- nm - Epiphany Aug 13, 06:21
  - [Select All] [Delete] -- nm - Reagen Aug 13, 06:17

  - Too high! (it is actually less than i anticipated, but still, it will take a while...) -- nm - Andie Aug 13, 06:11
Crazy Rich Asians 100% (31/0), Alpha nsy, Mile 22 nsy, The Wife 96% (22/1), Blaze 100% (8/0) -- nm - Beaker Aug 13, 04:47 3
- Do we like Ethan Hawke as a director? -- nm - Epiphany Aug 13, 05:38 2

    - I rewatched The Town the other day - Ben needs to stay behind the camera - he clearly has a knack for it -- nm - Epiphany Aug 13, 07:09
Ticketmaster to close resale sites Seatwave and Get Me In (in UK and Ireland, and eventually rest of Europe) -- (link) - LMS Aug 13, 04:44 3
- I didn't expect them to limit the reselling on their site to the actual cost of the ticket. I figured it was a move to push out competition. - Krusty Aug 13, 04:51 2
  - I refuse to buy from them. They were charging about 30% of the ticket face value in additional fees. -- nm - LMS Aug 13, 05:18 1
    - Their fees are the main reason I despise them. You can end up paying 50% over the face value sometimes. Ridiculous. -- nm* - Krusty Aug 13, 06:21
TV PSA: Better Call Saul, Andi Mack, American Ninja Warrior, Bachelor in Paradise, SYTYCD, Penn & Teller, Raw, Salvation, Who's Line is it Anyway?, -- nm - Beaker Aug 13, 04:42 1

- that's pretty terrific -- nm - prayformojo Aug 13, 04:56
I got up way too early to buy a newspaper and there are none at any store or bodega. I don't know if they were never delivered or - Krusty Aug 13, 03:16 13
- I spoke too soon. I found a bodega that had them and I was able to grab 10 copies. Nice! -- nm - Krusty Aug 13, 03:34 12
  - THAT’S WHY NOBODY HAD THEM. -- nm - mafic Aug 13, 04:47 11
    - The guy at the counter said someone had just left with a stack as well but he had more in the back. - Krusty Aug 13, 04:52 10
      - why are you buying so many? -- nm - Beaker Aug 13, 05:01 9
        
        Because they're selling on eBay for $10 a paper. Anything from Supreme, especially with their box logo, is desired by their fans. -- (edited) - Krusty Aug 13, 05:09 8
        
        I used to make decent coin selling Cineplex movie magazines on eBay to Americans - Reagen Aug 13, 05:28 5
        
        You can't make money on eBay anymore? Fees? -- nm - Krusty Aug 13, 06:22 4
        
        this may be more of a Canada thing but it's shipping mostly. -- nm - Reagen Aug 13, 06:26 3
        
        It's surprisingly expensive to ship things between the US and Canada. -- nm - Krusty Aug 13, 06:29 2
        
        I for one blame Amazon -- nm - Trump Aug 13, 06:30 1
        
        It's probably a part of it. But while it's very far from the worst thing he's complained about, him bitching about Amazon paying the USPS - Reagen Aug 13, 06:43
        
        what's in them that people want? -- nm - Beaker Aug 13, 05:13 1
        
        Absolutely nothing. It's the Supreme box logo on the cover that they want. They'll buy anything with their box logo that's made or connected - Krusty Aug 13, 05:37
Report: Aretha Franklin is gravely ill in Detroit -- (link*) - budice Aug 13, 01:46 3
- no :( -- nm - ty97 Aug 13, 06:00
- Damn. :-( -- nm - Krusty Aug 13, 03:35
- She's had a history of some serious illnesses. Here's hoping she pulls out from this one, too. -- nm - Covington Aug 13, 03:18
That was a good typo..."Untie the Right" -- nm* - . Aug 13, 01:06
If we haven't heard from pegleg pete this evening, could be the massive power outage from a lightning strike -- (link) - zeitgeist Aug 13, 00:44
how much of what you “know” is actually myth perpetuated by leftist history professors who dismiss the Founders as wealthy, racist, sexist, white male - rabbit hole of history books and promotional blurb Aug 13, 00:30 1
- *sigh* -- nm - . Aug 13, 00:50
This is the best photo I got of the Perseids on Friday. I'm not happy with how it came out at all, but it does have streaks, so it's something. :) -- (link) - Beryllium Aug 13, 00:07 [flickr] 1
- nice. we saw quite a few while having a beach fire Saturday night. was very cool. -- nm - Beaker Aug 13, 04:44
So, Hardwick was back tonight but most people on the show had quit? That sounds about right. - David Aug 12, 22:27 4
- I think they are stuck in the position of having shows they want to kill but can’t because the ratings are still “good”. Ironic, because zombies. -- nm - Beryllium Aug 12, 23:15 3
  - I think they could keep the show and part ways with host -- nm - JD Aug 12, 23:44 2
    - They're a little stuck contract-wise, is my understanding. -- nm - Reagen Aug 13, 03:08
    - I don't think they should keep TWD, is what I am saying, therefore TD should go bye-bye. -- nm - Beryllium Aug 12, 23:45
crash on I5, two die NOT from the accident, one driver is beaten to death, other killed by passing car -- (link) - zeitgeist Aug 12, 21:22

So tired! Me sleep now. -- nm - Beryllium Aug 12, 21:06
More fucked up Trump nonsense will put a legally adopted child at risk of deportation. -- (link) - TWuG Aug 12, 20:16 1

Bote! Jeebus. -- nm - pmb Aug 12, 20:05
Finished dead last out of ten in my fantasy football golf game, so I’ll be stuck with whatever pick nobody wants. Oh well. -- nm - Volnelk Aug 12, 18:39
Dammit. So close to winning $100 on HQ tonight. nm - ralph wiggum Aug 12, 18:19
The hand to hand combat stuff in Civil War holds up really well - Reagen Aug 12, 17:38 13
- Spent a fair amount of time trying to figure out what method Ken Burns used for the stuff you were referring to... -- nm - Ender Aug 12, 21:43
- Yup, hated that scene. -- nm - Mop Aug 12, 18:21 1
  - Eh, Bucky should have booked it *up* while he had the chance. -- (link) - Spawn: Blood Feud God Aug 12, 20:17 [youtube]
- Core collection for me: Iron Man, Avengers, Winter Soldier, Civil War, Ragnarok, GotGv1, Doc Strange, Infinity War. 2nd Tier: Ultron, Iron Man 2.... - Budice Aug 12, 17:56
- He can pull down anything with ARMS!! - Pippy Aug 12, 17:50
- Wasn't his other arm wrapped around a metal bar? -- nm - Spawn: Blood Feud God Aug 12, 17:49 6
  - Not at first. -- nm - Reagen Aug 12, 17:56 5
    - Well it's not like it was a Sikorsky/Sky Crane. It also had weight on it already. He'd only have to apply about a ton to hold it down. Maybe two. -- nm* - Beryllium Aug 12, 19:32
    - Well,considering dude moved Thor's hammer and held back the IG, what can he *not* he do? -- nm - Spawn: Blood Feud God Aug 12, 18:07 3

Maybe someone should tell Koepka that every tourney he enters is something he should get up for. - Will Hunting, Ruler Supreme of Blood Feud Aug 12, 15:42
Never seen Tiger look so care free losing. Maybe he's having fun for once in his life -- nm - Bacon Aug 12, 15:40 12
- He gets paid just to show up, be competitive and win prize money is just a bonus -- nm - zeitgeist Aug 12, 16:48 10
  - Nope. -- nm - Diva Aug 12, 17:16

    - (sponsors) -- nm - mafic Aug 12, 17:16 4
      - He makes that money because he's among the most winningest people to ever do his job. - Will Hunting, Ruler Supreme of Blood Feud Aug 12, 17:31
      - I mean, I don't agree with zeit. I think he's a competitive guy who wants to win, but essentially he makes more money than most golfers just for - mafic Aug 12, 17:18 2
        
        He's got more money than you could spend in ten lifetimes. -- nm - Reagen Aug 12, 17:24 1
        
        when has that ever stopped anyone? -- nm - mafic Aug 12, 17:55
  - He wants to beat Jack's record more than life itself. So wrong wrong wrong and wrong -- nm* - Bacon Aug 12, 16:50
- I think he's so happy he can play well, that he's overjoyed with that. I also think he loved being a stone-cold killer for much of the last 25 years. - Will Hunting, Ruler Supreme of Blood Feud Aug 12, 15:46
Heh, I walked away from the tv twice today. - Will Hunting, Ruler Supreme of Blood Feud Aug 12, 15:40 2

    - LOL. -- nm - Strongbad Aug 13, 05:28
    - He is a shell of his former self and a bad person to boot. -- nm - David Aug 12, 16:11
    - I remember being mocked for pointing out that he had little chance of competing for the Olympic golf gold because he'd be 40 so get in line. -- nm - Reagen Aug 12, 15:11

    - You were believing with your heart, not your head. -- nm - Bacon Aug 12, 14:48

  - He still might gak this; but I always thought if he wsa healthy, he could be a top 5 winner again. - Will Hunting, Ruler Supreme of Blood Feud Aug 12, 14:34 1
    - He had health issues, and his mental game was shot to hell. I figured even if he fixed one thing, the other would shoot him in the foot -- nm - Bacon Aug 12, 14:35
