  - Chicken isn't vegan? -- nm - Reagen Aug 20, 19:16
  - that is some weird bread - crash davis Aug 20, 19:09

    - Heh. I wasn't surprised so much as eye rolling. - ralph wiggum Aug 20, 19:18

  - Welcome to QV -- nm - Dano Aug 20, 18:45 1

    - *roars back* -- nm* - Lionsgate Aug 20, 17:17

  - I don't think they're going to deliver free food that far. I may order for the packaging. It's close to my office. -- nm - jnine Aug 20, 17:38 2
    - I figured they wouldn't but for the packaging, I thought I'd give it a shot:) -- nm - crash davis Aug 20, 17:44 1

  - Rookie Daniel Carlson wins kicking competition as Vikings release veteran Kai Forbath -- (link) - crash davis Aug 20, 15:43 1

The former loli had her baby today. Kaylum is 8 pounds 1 ounce and 21 inches. I am a great step-uncle I suppose. I dunno. I’m kind of distant to it. -- nm - Qale Aug 20, 14:43 8
- Is Kaylum a boy or a girl? -- nm - kelly Aug 20, 16:10 2
  - Kaylum will have to tell us when they are old enough to realize their gender identity. But... Kaylum has been born a boy. -- nm - Qale Aug 20, 17:15 1
    - Oh, and secretly I love that unintentionally I’ve been paid tribute with the Kayl part of the name. Mwah ha ha. -- nm - Qale Aug 20, 17:18
- How old is she?? -- nm - amandroid Aug 20, 15:07 3
  - She is now 18. (She was 12 I believe when she first arrived on the scene.) -- nm - Qale Aug 20, 15:14 2
    - After all the years we've been slacking, I would have been less surprised if you told us she's now a grandma -- nm - zeitgeist Aug 20, 16:08 1
      - It’s hard enough to believe that I’m a “great” anything. -- nm - Qale Aug 20, 17:15

  - Can't say. I don't watch Twitch feeds. But David does. I'd like to hear his feedback on this. -- nm - Mop Aug 20, 14:15 3
    - So, I can't honestly say because I don't know if I have the ad-free version already or not. - David Aug 20, 14:22 2
      - I think that with this change you still won't see ads on the channels you subscribe to. -- nm - Ender Aug 20, 15:31 1
        
        And I think you still get the one free subscription each month. -- nm - Ender Aug 20, 15:31
