STIS: I'm new to the "deposit checks via the phone app by taking a picture of the check." - JaxSean May 31, 09:41 10
- sounds like the consensus is make sure it clears, then toss/shred. Thanks! -- nm - JaxSean May 31, 09:48
- I get an email when it clears. Then I shred and recycle. -- nm - Reagen May 31, 09:46
- I still can't do it. Wife still walks the checks into the office and speaks with a teller if the amount is large. -- nm - Strongbad May 31, 09:46 1
  - We always would go to the bank atm and deposit, but now it's very out of the way. - JaxSean May 31, 09:49
- Eat it. It's the only way to be sure. -- nm - Brightbaron May 31, 09:46
- I keep it for a day or so, just to make sure the deposit was processed correctly - then toss it -- nm - decline May 31, 09:45
- I noticed on many new checks there is now a small checkbox under the signature line for you to mark that you deposited it - oblique May 31, 09:44
- I use a scanner at my business and part of the instructions/agreement is that we shred deposited checks. - Max May 31, 09:43
- In theory, you should shred them after like 5-10 business days. -- nm - Shaun May 31, 09:43
- I slap a post-it on it indicating when I deposited, then keep it in "the pile". You know... "the pile". - Mop May 31, 09:42
I hadn't thought that I was in the market for a Moonwalking Forklift, but now that you mention it, I can't imagine life without one -- (link) - prayformojo May 31, 09:32 [youtube] 3
- ~ heee heee !~ -- nm - Michael Jackson's Ghost May 31, 09:39
- *Sam Rockwell dance* -- nm - forklift May 31, 09:36
- it's amazingly elegant -- nm - decline May 31, 09:33
*sniff* *sniff* I smell something. Like, something new. Anyone else smell that? -- nm - Hercules Mulligan May 31, 09:31 3
- I do... -- nm - Dark Callisto May 31, 09:43
- Did you go buy a Binnington jersey? -- nm - Shaun May 31, 09:32 1
  - Nope. Despite having, I think, 5 different Blues jerseys in my home - none of them have a name and number on them. nm - Hercules Mulligan May 31, 09:46
and now that damn song is stuck in my head. Thanks Jim -- nm - decline May 31, 09:23 2
- I've got soul but I'm not a soldier. -- nm - Mop May 31, 09:32
- Been in mine for about a month now...maybe longer. It's everywhere around here. -- nm - Hercules Mulligan May 31, 09:26
kelly, Hampton has a 100% Satisfaction Guarantee. You should ask for your money back. And if you're a Hilton Honors member insist they give you some - Harry Tuttle May 31, 09:20 3
- We're Hilton people. Hilton Grand Vacation and Amex Holders. I'd be all over them if that happened. - JaxSean May 31, 09:52
- Oh wow, it was a Hampton? Damn, I like them too. -- nm - Strongbad May 31, 09:47
- psst 👇 -- nm - decline May 31, 09:22
Hotel update: I didn’t even need to speak to a manager. I spoke to the front desk; she credited us for last night. I’m fine with that. - kelly May 31, 09:17 10
- Good on them. Nice to hear they took care of the issue so effectively -- nm - oblique May 31, 09:43
- now, attack their FB page and get more free shit -- nm - Beaker May 31, 09:23 1
  - I've found that Twitter works way better for this kind of thing - oblique May 31, 09:43
- "Dear maid, I asked for no sticky sheets. Now I find six sticky sheets stacked at the end of the bed. Please remove the old sheets." -- nm - it begins May 31, 09:23
- LOL - you did just what I suggested! -- nm - Harry Tuttle May 31, 09:21 4
  - Heh. - kelly May 31, 09:28 3
    - I agree about the breakfast. - Harry Tuttle May 31, 09:44 2
      - (or get the step-up Amex that has a $100 fee, but you get free points that often add up to more than 1 room.) -- nm - JaxSean May 31, 09:53 1
        
        The Aspire? They keep pushing that at me but I don't do annual fees. -- nm - Harry Tuttle May 31, 10:35
- good -- nm - decline May 31, 09:18
Do you take sugar? -- nm - David May 31, 09:16 2
- Lips Like Sugar -- (link) - mud May 31, 09:22 [youtube]
- From Joe Elliot? most certainly. -- nm - Epiphany May 31, 09:17
Spider-Man Trailer -- (link) - Spawn May 31, 09:13 [youtube] 4
- that's a very long trailer, gives away too much, and Nick Fury is cooler than Shaft. -- nm - mud May 31, 09:21 3
  - Yeah, I hate the sites that put them all together. That was the only place I found the new one. -- nm - Spawn May 31, 09:25
  - Captain Marvel spoilers - Beryllium May 31, 09:23 1

What is Al Pacino's signature role? - Amoxy May 31, 09:02 15
- ATTICA ATTICA -- nm - zeitgeist May 31, 10:51
- I don't think he has a "signature" role. He's been so iconic, for so long, in so many movies. -- (edited) - Mr. Havens May 31, 09:55
- Scarface for me. He gets to be hammier in it then Godfather and I always think of him as a hammier De Niro type actor. -- nm - Will Hunting May 31, 09:13
- Serpico -- nm - mud May 31, 09:07
- HOO-AH -- nm - groiny May 31, 09:05
- He's the most Pacino in Heat. - Max May 31, 09:05 3
  - I think scent. it shows more range, which I think is pacino-ish. -- nm - amanda May 31, 09:06 2
    - I think yes and then I think Devil's Advocate. It's all fairly close. Maybe the answer is "the 1990s." -- nm - Max May 31, 09:08 1
      - *ding* -- nm - Spawn May 31, 09:10
- It SHOULD be Michael Corleone, but given that he's spent close to 30 years repeating Scent of a Woman I think it's actually that. -- nm - Ender May 31, 09:04
- Gigli. -- nm - Beryllium May 31, 09:03 1
  - That's ridiculous. Now Jack and Jill OTOH.... -- nm - Brightbaron May 31, 09:07
- Don't think he has just one. Michael Corleone and Tony Montana would be about equal for me. -- nm - Hercules Mulligan May 31, 09:03 1
  - And Scent of a Woman coming a close second. -- nm* - Shaun May 31, 09:04
- Godfather, with Scarface a close second -- nm - Beaker May 31, 09:03
Disney's done an extremely impressive job in controlling Star Wars Land traffic today. - David May 31, 08:45 9

- Since you and kim are both here and you're still recapping - how are Chris and Bret doing on the Race? nm - Hercules Mulligan May 31, 08:48 2
  - They’re okay (more) - Dark Callisto May 31, 08:58 1
    - They're fun. They are both really involved with the RHAP and online Survivor community, especially Bret. - Hercules Mulligan May 31, 09:02
- Star Wars is magic, David. -- nm - Spawn May 31, 08:48 3
  - I really want a video tour from him. -- nm - Remlik May 31, 08:52 2
    - August or November -- nm - David May 31, 09:16 1
      - "... and over here we see more boring crap..." -- nm - Spawn May 31, 09:18

LIR - Bery, I've not been watching Chernobyl but have you read Yellow Dirt? -- (link) - Meg May 31, 08:35 1
- No, but I saw a twitter thread. -- nm - Beryllium May 31, 08:42
Robert Pattinson Is Officially ‘The Batman’ -- (link) - Remlik May 31, 08:23 29
- BATMAN SPARKLES!!! -- nm - groiny May 31, 09:02
- I'm more unsure of him because he's 'pretty'. You bulk him up, he still looks pretty. - Will Hunting May 31, 08:47 8
  - There is technically nothing wrong with Bruce Wayne being a bit pretty. -- nm - Spawn May 31, 09:10 6
    - cause he is. -- nm - Remlik May 31, 09:47
    - I hope he keeps the hair -- (link) - decline May 31, 09:17 1
      - He looks like the nemesis of the BvS Lex Luthor! -- nm - Spawn May 31, 09:19
    - I don't know about World's Greatest Detective but he's good casting for World's Biggest Trust Fund Dick. -- nm - Max May 31, 09:13 2
      - yeah, he will nail that section of the role. -- nm - Epiphany May 31, 09:17 1
        
        All you saw was 'dick' and you felt you needed to reply. - Shaun May 31, 09:30
  - He was not a pretty boy in Good Time - Guigue May 31, 08:53
- Hey, Bats, what's that smell? *sniffs the air* Oh, it's you. Do you ever wash this suit? -- nm - Joker May 31, 08:41 1
  - Jingle bells - Spawn May 31, 08:41
- I know he can act, but man Twilight tarnished him in my mind. Plus I don't think he's big enough, athletically speaking. - sycor May 31, 08:33 8
  - hey Mr. Mom was fine int he suit. -- nm - Remlik May 31, 08:42 2
    - That's a good point. I will reserve judgment. -- nm - sycor May 31, 09:33 1
      - Yeah, but that Batman could barely move or fight. -- nm - Spawn May 31, 09:38
  - Bale went from The Machinist to Batman. They can beef Pattison up. -- nm - Andie May 31, 08:36 1
    - pic in The Machinist -- (link) - Andie May 31, 08:37
  - Theoretically, he could beef up -- nm - ty97 May 31, 08:36
  - Bale was not that big. I just googled images (and now that is in my browser history) but if RP does a good work out routine he could easily match Bale -- nm - Spawn May 31, 08:36 1
    - He's also slightly taller than Bale. But yeah, workout properly for a year and he'll be fine. -- nm - Shaun May 31, 08:38

- Posted without comment... -- (pic) - Dark Callisto May 31, 08:30 [Attachment] 1
  - WTF? - Spawn May 31, 08:31
- Never mind that - is he going to be doing my film which starts production next week? - LMS May 31, 08:29 1
  - As I will not watch any of his movies until The Batman, it is better for you if not. -- nm - Spawn May 31, 08:30
- *shrug* I'll still watch it at some point. -- nm - Shaun May 31, 08:27
- They sure as hell have a better suit. Do that, and I will not pass judgement until I see more. -- nm - Spawn May 31, 08:27
- shiny -- nm - decline May 31, 08:26
JK Rowling to release 4 new Harry Potter stories. I assume at least one will be hardcore Dumbledore/Snape slash fiction. -- (link) - Ender May 31, 08:23

Hey everyone, I want you to know that I might not be posting here much longer. I just got a call that my social security is about to be suspended. nm - Hercules Mulligan May 31, 08:21 2
- That sounds SUPER bad. Thoughts and prayers. -- nm - Dark Callisto May 31, 08:25
- The moral of this story is: don't answer the phone. - JaxSean May 31, 08:24
Philippines President Rodrigo Duterte has claimed he was once gay but “cured” himself of homosexuality -- (link) - ty97 May 31, 08:19 5
- "I just banged too many dudes and got sick of all the penii" -- nm - Beaker May 31, 08:59 2
  - Just like parents in the 80s who forced their kids to smoke a hole carton of cigs to turn them off of it. -- nm - Max May 31, 09:04 1
    - did it work? -- nm - mud May 31, 09:25

- FML -- nm - Epiphany May 31, 08:21
- Dollar General has been above $1 around here for as long as I can remember. Same with Family Dollar. Dollar Tree was the only true $1 place. - sycor May 31, 08:21 1
  - Tariffs! -- nm - decline May 31, 08:23
- 312.50 Tree -- nm - Spawn May 31, 08:19

    - They're having a thing in the lobby of my building...Gloria has been on a loop since I got here about 7:30. nm - Hercules Mulligan May 31, 08:27 9
      - How / when did the whole Blues-Gloria thing start? Laura Branigan is one of my favorite 80's singers - JD May 31, 08:32 7
        
        Story (and Philly connection) - decline May 31, 08:34 6
        
        and for reference, here's the brigade doing their number at the 2017 New Year's Day parade -- (link) - decline May 31, 08:44 [youtube]

        easy peasy -- nm - decline May 31, 08:41
        
        It's almost too easy, isn't it? -- nm - Hercules Mulligan May 31, 08:41
        
        Also - Boston tried to hijack it. Laura's people aren't having it. -- (link) - Hercules Mulligan May 31, 08:39 1
        
        No, Boston did not. Someone trying to sell shit did. -- nm - Diva May 31, 09:32
