New Weird Al song. Doors style parody with Ray Manzarek on keyboards -- (link) - TWuG Jun 16, 08:46 [youtube] 2
- /me tries to think of a music link I would like to see less than this, fails -- nm - Spawn Jun 16, 08:49 1
  - There's this -- (link) - TWuG Jun 16, 08:54 [youtube]
I want to believe The Hangover is as good as y'all say, but then I remember lots of y'all geeking out about Tropic Thunder. And Superbad. - TFox Jun 16, 08:45 29
- I loved tropic Thunder but didn't even make it half way through Superbad before turning it off. -- nm - Cuzzin Todd Jun 16, 09:03
- I give it a B-. Close to a B, but not quite. -- nm - Loyola Jun 16, 08:52
- At this point you will probably be dissapointed in it, simply because of all the ST hype. - Subversive Jun 16, 08:49
- Tropic Thunder was awesome for those with a good sense of humor. - Will Hunting Jun 16, 08:49 6
  - Tropic Thunder was funny at moments, but I could barely understand a word Downey said, which pretty much ruined it. -- nm - Subversive Jun 16, 08:52
  - you've never seen Super Troopers. your opinion is invalid. we have discussed this. -- nm - TFox Jun 16, 08:50 4
    - I remember thinking Super Troopers was kinda lame when I saw it ... -- nm - Beryllium Jun 16, 08:51 3
      - I thought the same thing. It's funnier on subsequent viewings. -- nm - JaxSean Jun 16, 08:52 1
        
        Totally. -- nm - Subversive Jun 16, 08:53
      - that is embarassing for you to admit in public. -- nm - TFox Jun 16, 08:52
- The Hangover is more lowbrow humor, I think. - JaxSean Jun 16, 08:48 3
  - Oh. /me removes Hangover from Must See list -- nm - Spawn Jun 16, 08:50 2
    - You don't like Anchorman? -- nm - JaxSean Jun 16, 08:51 1
      - I kept looking at my watch, wondering when it was going to be really funny or over. - Spawn Jun 16, 08:53
- I feel you. I tend to gleen more info from STers *not* liking something. -- nm - Spawn Jun 16, 08:48
- Tropic Thunder was good. -- nm - loosilu Jun 16, 08:46
- Tropic Thunder is the shiznit. -- nm - Diva Jun 16, 08:46 4
  - liar. -- nm - TFox Jun 16, 08:47 3
    - I'm rubber, you're glue. Oh and...you are dumb. -- nm - Diva Jun 16, 08:49 2
      - Kid, your face is dumb. -- nm - TFox Jun 16, 08:51 1
        
        your glue face is dumb too. -- nm - Diva Jun 16, 08:52
- I had high hopes for The Hangover and it exceeded them. -- nm - Shaun Jun 16, 08:46 3
  - Agreed -- nm - amoxy Jun 16, 08:47 2
    - Also, I didn't like TT or SB enough to make sure I saw them more than once. TH is a day 1 purchase for me. It'll likely be an unrated edition too. -- nm - Shaun Jun 16, 08:48 1
      - Loved TT (1st day blu-ray purchase).....hated Superbad. -- nm - Will Hunting Jun 16, 08:52

- Don't forget the weirdos who like Napoleon Dynamite. -- nm - Don Homer Jun 16, 08:46 2

    - *hated* ND. -- nm - Reagen Jun 16, 08:52

  - "If he asks me first..." -- nm - kelly Jun 16, 08:46
  - because - znufrii Jun 16, 08:45 4

      - exactly. - znufrii Jun 16, 08:47 2
        
        [deleted] 1
        
        it's the "over-worked" part that I find to be insane. - znufrii Jun 16, 08:53
  - *wishes I was a banker* -- nm - JackDawson si Jun 16, 08:44
in fact...I'm changing my name... -- nm - Mel - Wolf Pack of One Jun 16, 08:32 4
- "It's Phil, leave a message. But don't text me. It's gay." -- nm - Will Hunting Jun 16, 08:48

- Why is it you want to live in a co-op? - Subversive Jun 16, 08:28 26
  - don't know about NY, but in vancouver it's a lot cheaper to buy co-ops. -- nm - mafic Jun 16, 08:31 17
    - Why is that? I don't quite understand it. -- nm - Subversive Jun 16, 08:36 15
      - because you're not buying a piece of the building ... -- nm - Beryllium Jun 16, 08:37 14
        
        [deleted] 5
        
        Whereas in a Strata, for example, you own a set of physical dimensions called a Strata Lot ... - Beryllium Jun 16, 08:39 3
        
        heh. you own air, I own paper. -- nm - mafic Jun 16, 08:46 1
        
        and soon, hopefully, I will own land. -- nm - Beryllium Jun 16, 08:47
        
        [deleted]
        
        but as a share, rather than a discreet section. -- nm - znufrii Jun 16, 08:39
        
        So all you own is the right to live there? -- nm - Subversive Jun 16, 08:38 7
        
        technically I own shares in a corporation and lease the apartment from the corporation. - mafic Jun 16, 08:45 5
        
        So it's cheaper because the pool of potential buyers is so much smaller? - Subversive Jun 16, 08:46 4
        
        yep, and people that do have that kind of down payment can usually get bigger mortgages and buy bigger places. -- nm - mafic Jun 16, 08:48 2
        
        Right, shrinking the pool of buyers even smaller. - Subversive Jun 16, 08:51 1

        you own a percentage of the building. but it's run by the tenants not a larger company usually. you need a higher down payment usually - Andie Jun 16, 08:40
    - (like my apartment in my neighbourhood would probably be almost twice as much if it wasn't co-op). -- nm - mafic Jun 16, 08:32
  - masochism. -- nm - loosilu Jun 16, 08:31
  - [deleted] 6
    - I see. Well, hopefully it works out. -- nm - Subversive Jun 16, 08:35
    - here too. -- nm - Andie Jun 16, 08:34 4
      - I don't know that we have such a thing in LA. Here, condos and houses rule. -- nm - con_carne Jun 16, 08:36 3
        
        toronto is MOSTLY condo. but there are coops. - Andie Jun 16, 08:41 2
        
        [deleted]
        
        The IM: Oh, maybe that's true here as well. I just never hear the term. -- nm - con_carne Jun 16, 08:45

    - Sounds like a mess! -- nm - con_carne Jun 16, 08:31
  - you'd also have to tease your hair and buy a lot of leather. - mafic Jun 16, 08:28 1
    - nah, he just needs to pile on the gold chains. -- nm - loosilu Jun 16, 08:31
- ugh. that reminds me, I have to write a cheque for my building's new roof. -- nm - mafic Jun 16, 08:24
LYC: I am home again today, sleeping. this sucks. -- nm - loosilu Jun 16, 08:17 4
- pssst, you're sleep posting... -- nm - colin Jun 16, 08:18 3
  - heh. I woke up because I'm hungry. -- nm - loosilu Jun 16, 08:26 2
    - If you dont have a follow up you might want to see the Dr again - eag Jun 16, 08:28 1
      - They told me fatigue can linger for weeks. It is flu. This is within normal. -- nm - loosilu Jun 16, 08:32
So, I bought Peggle on the iPhone at the $0.99 price. Apparently I was part of an experiment/protest :) -- (link) - Beryllium Jun 16, 08:17 2
- eh, sounds more like somebody needs to do a little basic pricing research. - mafic Jun 16, 08:23
- i love PopCap :) -- nm - colin Jun 16, 08:18
LYC: I'm proud to say all my recent music purchases have been on Amazon (and have been cheaper than iTunes) -- nm - MDH Jun 16, 08:17 10
- Still not available in Canada ... but slackertalk can get berymander bucks off of those purchases (yay :)) -- nm - Beryllium Jun 16, 08:22 4
  - I want Amazon.ca to offer mp3 sales! - Subversive Jun 16, 08:38
  - I never understood how it works? Is it a % or fee or what? -- nm - MDH Jun 16, 08:26 2
    - for amazon, it's usually about 4% for most items - but the more that sells in a month, the higher the percentage earned in that month -- nm - Beryllium Jun 16, 08:30 1
      - god knows I'm doing my part for you. -- nm - Remlik Jun 16, 08:42
- I wish there was a better interface for playing music back other than iTunes, else I'd be off of that platform completely. - JaxSean Jun 16, 08:21 3
  - tried songbird yet? made by the guy who helped make winamp.. -- nm - colin Jun 16, 08:27 1
    - oo, it syncs with itunes now! -- nm - colin Jun 16, 08:28
  - we need Winamp to return! -- nm - GWAA Jun 16, 08:22
- I like that they are mp3. -- nm - loosilu Jun 16, 08:17

  - Fox's lead play by play guy. -- nm - Reagen Jun 16, 08:36
- He's lucky Paul Rudd didn't break out his bodily function stories. -- nm - Reagen Jun 16, 08:19 1
  - That's the thing...you can tell Paul Rudd is a nice guy because as funny as Artie thinks he is... - Mel Profit Jun 16, 08:25
- Maybe it's my non-liking-Artie-much-syndrome (though I'm no Joe fan either) but i thought Joe held up okay, considering. - ty97 Jun 16, 08:15
- That dude gives me a headache. Just rubs me the wrong way. -- nm - TFox Jun 16, 08:13 1
  - seriously. just shut up Joe Buck -- nm - dug Jun 16, 08:24
Would you please put some pants on? I feel weird having to ask you twice. -- nm - Diva Jun 16, 08:10 28

        I'm not supposed to be within two hundred feet of a school... or a Chuck E. Cheeze. -- nm - Subversive Jun 16, 08:31 5

        What movie is this? -- nm - con_carne Jun 16, 08:27 10
        
        Is this your tooth? - JaxSean Jun 16, 08:28 7
        
        Alan bet you you weren't a good enough dentist to pull your own tooth. -- nm - Shaun Jun 16, 08:30 6
        
        Apparently, you won. -- nm - JaxSean Jun 16, 08:34 5
