What fresh hell is this?! -- (link) - TWuG Nov 24, 08:19 6
- This is something that I'd try a small slice of, but would never waste time making. -- nm - Beryllium Nov 24, 08:30
- I didn’t like it. Others have said, it’s too much. -- nm* - Qale Nov 24, 08:28

- That's a tart on tart tart. -- nm - Reagen Nov 24, 08:24
heh -- (link) - Jovian Nov 24, 08:13
I’m considering buying 4DX movie tickets for the first time. STIS - are those seats recliners, or are they standard movie seats? -- nm - kelly Nov 24, 08:11 8
- At the Pinnacle, they're standard seats. - Dark Callisto Nov 24, 08:39
- I didn’t like it. Like others said, it’s too much. -- nm - Qale Nov 24, 08:27
- For what movie? -- nm - Will Hunting Nov 24, 08:26 3
  - Harry Potter: Azkaban. -- nm - kelly Nov 24, 08:27
  - David's Backyard Adventure Christmas Extravaganza -- nm - Beaker Nov 24, 08:27 1
    - Gucci? -- nm - Qale Nov 24, 08:27
- I think pmb said he has a bad experience...too distracting -- nm - SyrDragon Nov 24, 08:25
- Standard seats with special effects (motion, environmental, lights) -- nm - budice Nov 24, 08:23
Dez Bryant tweet -- (link) - Strongbad Nov 24, 08:06 2
- Que? -- nm - spamlet Nov 24, 08:12 1
  - Jason Garrett -- nm - Strongbad Nov 24, 08:25
Fuck yeah -- (link) - Reagen Nov 24, 08:00 1
- That is funny but impractical. -- nm - Beryllium Nov 24, 08:29
NFL-STL settlement reached for $790m. Can’t wait to see how it’s squandered. -- (link) - spamlet Nov 24, 07:55 4
- Oh Kim Gardner's got plans.... -- nm - Cowboy BeBaron Nov 24, 08:07 1
  - I'd check Jones' pockets each day as she leaves. - spamlet Nov 24, 08:13
- so...the next lawsuit will be Kroenke vs the NFL when he tries to make the other owners pay a share of this right? -- nm - Beaker Nov 24, 08:03 1
  - There's not enough popcorn in the world for that show. -- nm - Cowboy BeBaron Nov 24, 08:10
So, how's the dealership model of vehicle sales working out for Ford as it tries to compete in the EV market? - TWuG Nov 24, 07:52 3
- Yes, I hate all of that, but how else am I going to get a test drive? -- nm - Beryllium Nov 24, 08:17 2
  - You can test drive a Tesla through service/sales centers. Or check Tesla forums. Owners love sharing the Tesla experience - TWuG Nov 24, 08:25 1
    - Well, that's fair, but I suppose I've moved past buying a tesla anyway. I want a Rivian or an F-150 or a Mustang Mach-E or a VW electric bus. - Beryllium Nov 24, 08:28
Well, managed to squeeze in two of the three movies I want to see. Going to see Encanto tonight in Dolby with the wife and Ghostbusters on Friday - oblique Nov 24, 07:49
NFL broadcast maps -- (link) - prayformojo Nov 24, 07:48 2
- These maps make too much sense. I demand crazier maps I can make fun of. -- nm - Cowboy BeBaron Nov 24, 07:51 1
  - I think they make sense because there are so many National games this week. -- nm - Dano Nov 24, 08:08
tyIS, looking at booking United in Feb for conf in San Diego. 8hr with 1 stop in Duelles seems like the best bet. - SyrDragon Nov 24, 07:44 7
- As long as it isn't a super short connection at Dulles, that routing seems logical. - ty97 Nov 24, 07:59 1
  - Nice. Thank you -- nm - SyrDragon Nov 24, 08:05
- Remind me where you’d be flying out of? -- nm - spamlet Nov 24, 07:47 4
  - Ithaca is closest -- nm - SyrDragon Nov 24, 07:50 3
    - Looks like United is you're only real option from there. Syracuse has American, Delta, and JetBlue as well but not sure how far that is. - spamlet Nov 24, 08:04 2
      - Syracuse definitely has more flights than Ithaca but I think he's quite a bit closer to Ithaca? -- nm - ty97 Nov 24, 08:07 1
        
        Yeah 30min to ITH, over an hr to 'Cuse. 45-60min to Elmira or Binghamton -- nm - SyrDragon Nov 24, 08:23

      - The article says yes. There was also another witness in pursuit trying to get her to stop. -- nm - Cowboy BeBaron Nov 24, 07:35 4
        
        If she’s in her house—she should’ve just stayed in there. Pulling a gun and bringing it outside to scare someone off, ain’t the best move -- nm - flavorize Nov 24, 07:38 3
        
        So self defense right? - Epiphany Nov 24, 08:15 2
        
        Based on what I'm reading in this thread, that's where I'm at. - Dano Nov 24, 08:22 1
        
        same -- nm - Beaker Nov 24, 08:24
    - Why should *I* deescalate when *I* have a gun, huh? -- nm - Reagen Nov 24, 07:33

  - Honestly, I ain’t even sure how I’d vote on that. - Will Hunting Nov 24, 07:30 4
    - It's like two wrongs don't make a right and four wrongs winds up with someone dead. -- nm - Dano Nov 24, 07:37 3
      - I would say “need more context” to one of the wrongs. - Will Hunting Nov 24, 07:40 2
        
        Also was she just strapped or aiming/threatening with the gun? -- nm - VMan Nov 24, 07:43 1
        
        Article is decidedly short on those details. -- nm - Cowboy BeBaron Nov 24, 07:45
