What's up with all you people complaining about Canadian spellings today? - Subversive May 29, 12:52 14

head played PORNIER in scrab the other day. I just tried to play QUILTIER and no-go. what the freaking crap? -- nm - locust street loves mandy lane May 29, 12:48 3
- "scrab" sounds like an STD. -- nm - Shaun May 29, 12:49 1
  - SFTS. Gross. -- nm - Shaun May 29, 12:54

  - [deleted]
- (you're so not gay.) -- nm - JaxSean May 29, 12:47
She gave me the "It's not you, it's me" routine. I invented "It's not you, it's me!" -- nm - George Costanza SI May 29, 12:43 2
- If it's anyone, it's me!! Alright it's you. YOU'RE DAMN RIGHT IT'S ME! -- nm - Shaun May 29, 12:46
- That is such a cop out -- nm - llilou si May 29, 12:45
The Redskins handled this the right way. - David May 29, 12:41 3 1
- they must think Bridges can play to take the $6 mil cap hit rather than keep him a year as depth -- nm - Stewie May 29, 12:49
- agreed -- nm - Beaker May 29, 12:45
- They put Snyder in an asylum? Good move -- nm - Redmond in Sin City May 29, 12:43
Che's playing at our indie theatre. Runtime: 4:17. nm - Dignan May 29, 12:40 12
- Somehow, The Girlfriend Experience still felt longer. -- nm - David May 29, 12:42 8
  - it felt like it would never end. - Callisto May 29, 12:46 7
    - I *really* want to see this. Are you saying it's not worth the money? -- nm - Hotkiss May 29, 12:53 3
      - It's not worth free. -- nm - Callisto May 29, 12:55 2
        
        (and just to be clear, I'm talking about Girlfriend Experience, not Che). -- nm - Callisto May 29, 12:56 1
        
        Is Sasha Grey in Che? nm - Dignan May 29, 12:57
    - Didi you all watch it on TiVo/Amazon or in the theater? -- nm - JaxSean May 29, 12:47 1
      - TiVo. So the saving grace was the fact that I got to do other stuff while it was boring me. -- nm - Callisto May 29, 12:49
    - Aw, poor Dano. nm - Dignan May 29, 12:46
- It's worth seeing as one movie. I really don't think Part 2 works if you haven't seen Part 1. -- nm - Dano May 29, 12:41 2
  - Wait, is this the full version? nm - Dignan May 29, 12:43 1
    - Yes - The Roadshow edition is how it's meant to be seen. -- nm - Dano May 29, 12:44
Ika question - JaxSean May 29, 12:39 22
- (I probably use 40-50 spies at any given time.) nm - Dignan May 29, 12:45 10
  - thats becourse you can't remember where they all are :) -- nm - Danedukenuuk May 29, 12:49 1
    - I actually do use them like bookmarks. -- nm - Spawn May 29, 12:51
  - Yeah, I keep my walls high but my hideouts a couple levels higher than everything. - Spawn May 29, 12:46 4
    - As I'm moving my towns, all this info is helpful. - JaxSean May 29, 12:49 3
      - Spies travel *so* fast. I send them out in all directions, plus when attacking a city with spies in it they can aid you. -- nm - Spawn May 29, 12:50 2
        
        See, I don't attack either. Just sometimes inactives when I get bored. -- nm - JaxSean May 29, 12:52 1
        
        My people are blood thirsty, and need to feed. - Spawn May 29, 12:54
  - How many do you keep around for defense? (nm) - musubi May 29, 12:46 2
    - I like to keep a third, though I waver. -- nm - Spawn May 29, 12:47
    - Another 40-50. nm - Dignan May 29, 12:47
- yes - Danedukenuuk May 29, 12:42
- They defend your city from spies. Big help. -- nm - Spawn May 29, 12:41 1
  - word. Keeps others from seeing what you have -- nm - Beaker May 29, 12:46
- It also protects you from being spied upon. nm - Dignan May 29, 12:41 6
  - absolutely critical for this. -- nm - Mel Profit May 29, 12:43 2
    - yep. he who does not upgrade his hideouts is a fool. -- nm - loosiflu May 29, 12:44 1
      - stop looking at me like that!!!! -- nm - Danedukenuuk May 29, 12:45
  - ding! -- nm - Redmond in Sin City May 29, 12:42
  - Ah, that's why it helps your defense score? -- nm - JaxSean May 29, 12:42 1
    - I don't think it helps your score at all. nm - Dignan May 29, 12:44
- Correct and the higher you upgrade your hideout the more spys you can have -- nm - eag May 29, 12:40
Kelly Clarkson should *totally* do a Paradise bythe Dashboard Light remake. -- nm - Spawn May 29, 12:37
There are two tan and trendy French boys and a really cool down-to-earth Spaniard in the apt *drooooool* -- nm - Hotkiss May 29, 12:34 38

  - L4 -- nm - Hotkiss May 29, 12:36
- if he's a fan of Real let him go - Danedukenuuk May 29, 12:36
- yeah, see. you need to be single. -- nm - Andie May 29, 12:35 32
  - Even if that were the case, how do you say "it's not you it's me" without sounding selfish? -- nm - Hotkiss May 29, 12:36 28
    - You should totally get him to propose and ehen he does... *that* is when you tell him. -- nm - Spawn May 29, 12:45
    - "I still love him. But I want to love myself more." WTF does that mean? - musubi May 29, 12:43 1
      - It means she's spending too much time with her toys. -- nm - pmb May 29, 12:47
    - if anyone ever doubted you were a woman here is the proof :) - Danedukenuuk May 29, 12:41
    - What difference does that make. It may be somewhat selfish but it's what you want and need right now. - pmb May 29, 12:40 7
      - I've almost always done what I want to do, no matter what. I haven't decided whether that's selfish or just self-respect. -- nm - Hotkiss May 29, 12:41 6
        
        Look, when you are in a relationship it needs to work for both people. That involves give and take. There are times it will not feel like it's - pmb May 29, 12:46 1
        
        You are a wise man, poombah. (nm) - musubi May 29, 12:48
        
        being with someone out of guilt isn't doing them any favours. -- nm - Andie May 29, 12:42 3
        
        Since when did you start spelling it "favours"? -- nm - Hotkiss May 29, 12:43 2
        
        thats also the wrong way since it's spelled "sex" -- nm - Danedukenuuk May 29, 12:44
        
        since forever being as i'm canadian and we spell it the british way. -- nm - Andie May 29, 12:43
    - be honest. say, ' i need to do this trip. i think it's important i learn the most i can about myself and it's not fair to either of us - Andie May 29, 12:39 1
      - or, if you want to do it before then, just take out the 'trip' part. -- nm - Andie May 29, 12:39
    - Us, is this the "guy" that threw you into a wall? - Spawn May 29, 12:39 5
      - wanting to travel is what it takes to dump a cretin? I'll accept that. -- nm - locust street loves mandy lane May 29, 12:47 3
        
        Getting away is key, in his case. -- nm - Spawn May 29, 12:49 2

        Only a car ride away. - Spawn May 29, 12:51
      - yes. -- nm - loosiflu May 29, 12:40
    - "I'm going abroad and I want to see other people." - con_carne May 29, 12:38
    - very little means *kaput* forever. Tell him you are doing him a favor by setting him free to have life experiences - Epiphany May 29, 12:38
    - "It's not you, it's me" is pretty much taking the blame off of them and putting it on yourself. - JaxSean May 29, 12:38 5
      - heartless. the other person still *always* thinks its their fault with this line. -- nm - Hotkiss May 29, 12:39 3
        
        It is a bad cliche line. I don't think you want to say it that way. -- nm - con_carne May 29, 12:41
        
        Believe me, if you think of the other person 100% of the time, you will never grow. - JaxSean May 29, 12:41
        
        somtimes breaking up hurts. he'll live. -- nm - loosiflu May 29, 12:40
      - I've always thought of it as a cop-out line, but that's probably because I learned it from George Costanza -- nm - Roger More May 29, 12:39
  - (she's not?) - JaxSean May 29, 12:36 2
    - i'm not actually sure, but she seems to be conflicted about whether she *should* be single if she decides to do the travelling thing. - Andie May 29, 12:37 1
      - check her FB status. :) -- nm - loosiflu May 29, 12:41
I always wanted to tell you, you look just like Jared Leto. I love him! I want to have his babies! You look just like him! *hic* ... -- nm - drunk co worker May 29, 12:34 1

      - Yup. Can't take Asprin or Ibuprofen since they can lead to bleeding -- nm - amoxy May 29, 12:37 1
        
        Asprin and Ibo have never worked for me anyway for headaches - eag May 29, 12:39

the DEFB thingy is not as funny as i had hoped - Danedukenuuk May 29, 12:29
Hotkiss, the one thing you need to know is, life isn't black and white, and no matter *what* you prepare for, if you are going to see the world - Andie May 29, 12:28 5

    - I'd put it toward the top of my "most annoyingly unfunny internet meme" list. - JaxSean May 29, 12:30 2
