- only you can tell. maybe wear it on a chain necklace for a while and see how it feels? -- nm - citizen b. Nov 2, 15:41
- How about taking it off every night. When you put it on in the morning, it'll be a deliberate choice. Wear it because you want to wear it. - mara Nov 2, 15:40 5

One of the things I will miss about an HSX-run TT is that stuff like B2 can happen unchecked. - ty97 Nov 2, 15:29 17
- Jeebus. Don Homer needs some anger management classes. -- nm - Inigo Nov 2, 15:43

    - Meh... "taking them out" is practically impossible and a total waste of his time - Stewie Nov 2, 16:03 1
      - I'm happy for Bery to put forward the effort. And trolls escalate until they get attention. - TWuG Nov 2, 16:12
    - re: im, yes. -- nm - citizen b. Nov 2, 15:44

- I just don't wear mine most of the time. -- nm - David Nov 2, 15:46
- Wuzzah! (We're honeymooning with Ray-Ray!) -- nm - mara Nov 2, 15:42
- It felt weird for me up until the last year or so. I just wasn't used to wearing any jewelry. - Inigo Nov 2, 15:38 3
  - That is how it is supposed to work. For women it just becomes a part of them. For us it is a constant reminder. -- nm - Spawn Nov 2, 15:40 2
    - If it was meant to be a constant reminder, it'd be a Prince Albert. -- nm - TWuG Nov 2, 15:45 1
      - You'd find less takers to be "Best Man". -- nm - Name Withheld By Request Nov 2, 16:11
- Congrats to you and your wife! -- nm - ty97 Nov 2, 15:38

The definition of trust. My new GF is letting me drop off her very liberal laden ballot tomorrow at a drop box. - Redmond Nov 2, 14:59 8
- you're tempted to disenfranchise someone? -- nm - Mel Profit Nov 2, 15:06 1
  - She left it laying near my paper shredder. It fell in on accident. -- nm - Redmond Nov 2, 15:08
- I volunteered to fill out Ashlee's for her... - Stephen Nov 2, 15:02 4
  - She is a lost cause, work on the kid. -- nm - Redmond Nov 2, 15:03 3
    - ugh, I know you're kidding, but this creeps me out. - ty97 Nov 2, 15:19 2

- ok, fine. go get your burrito, but only after you go to the store to pick-up fixings for another day's dinner. you can glow another day.-- nm - citizen b. Nov 2, 14:55 7
  - I opted for Jimmy John's instead. But everyone should know better than to go to the grocery store on an empty stomach. - Cuzzin Todd Nov 2, 15:13 6
    - I use the same grocery list week after week, and it's getting *very* boring. - MojaveMeg Nov 2, 15:19 4
      - i go through phases with things (currently: lots of apples); but, aside from that, too much same wouldn't work so well for me. - citizen b. Nov 2, 15:27 3
        
        oops, just saw hers numbers sections go back to the pre-fiber-cap days, so don't trust the points. something like this may be more useful. nm but: -- (link) - citizen b. Nov 2, 15:39 1
