- You could give hem the gift of art and act out the McCain speech for them. -- nm - Spawn Sep 4, 20:44
- No one ever complains about cash. -- nm - Subversive Sep 4, 20:41 2
  - I always just throw a number of twenties in a card. People need cash after weddings more than toasters. -- nm - Name Withheld By Request Sep 4, 20:42 1
    - But ours is able to tell time in Moscow, Bejing, Mebourne and Washington!! -- nm - Wedding Guest Sep 4, 20:46
- interesting, found it online -- nm - Beryllium Sep 4, 20:41
- Don't bring gifts to the wedding. It just means then the family (read: the parents) have to deal with bringing them home. Send the gift to the couple' - loosilu Sep 4, 20:41 5
  - Her mom is in the hospital down here having repeat brain surgery; that's why my other aunt was down here before -- nm - Beryllium Sep 4, 20:44 2

      - Exactly! -- nm - Beryllium Sep 4, 20:46
  - technically you even have a year to do it. -- nm - mafic Sep 4, 20:42 1

    - Ha! You can't hide from me here. Neener neener neener! -- nm - Redmond Sep 4, 20:52
    - Ha! You can't hide from me here. Neener neener neener! -- nm - Redmond Sep 4, 20:52
  - Are we enforcing anti troll rules here? -- nm - Redmond Sep 4, 20:48
- I think we all should, if we find out when the changeover will be, and all get banned before we leave. -- nm - mara Sep 4, 20:35
- no, but kilbo dropped an f-bom once after someone convinced him TT would xx it out. HA! -- nm - loosilu Sep 4, 20:35 3
  - I've tricked a few Sketchers to type in their passwords. - nubby Sep 4, 20:36 2
    - Oh yeah, thanks for that. -- nm - kelly Sep 4, 20:38

  - Uh... who are you? -- nm - Spawn Sep 4, 20:42
Help! I'm drowning in balloons! -- nm - Andrea Mitchell Sep 4, 20:33 7

  - I'm sure you will. She had a look of sheer terror. -- nm - nubby Sep 4, 20:34
  - I don't even know who Andrea Mitchell is. -- nm - mafic Sep 4, 20:34 4

        I didn't until about a month ago. -- nm - nubby Sep 4, 20:38
        
        ditto...I just looked it up. -- nm - Mel Profit Sep 4, 20:38

- heh. locally, a RNC viewing party was held at a Chuck E. Cheese (fitting) -- nm - Guy Sep 4, 20:51
- I dont think i've ever been to one. do they do pizza or something? -- nm - loosilu Sep 4, 20:33 6
  - I worry about the lack of fun your kids would ever know about :P - Walt_Disney Sep 4, 20:43 2
    - ... and I was at a playground this afternoon. -- nm - loosilu Sep 4, 20:51
    - we were raised to use our imagination. ha! -- nm - loosilu Sep 4, 20:49
  - if it wasn't for a zillion screaming kids, it'd be cool - you should get Pete to take you to one sometime -- nm - crash davis Sep 4, 20:36
  - Yeah. Worst pizza ever. - Subversive Sep 4, 20:35
  - The place is like crack for kids. They have animatronic shows, video games, and people wearing costumes. -- nm - Redmond Sep 4, 20:35
- isn't failing at everything else good enough for you? - Subversive Sep 4, 20:33 1
  - its a short step from skee to curling, I'll come up to your neck of the words and fail at that too -- nm - crash davis Sep 4, 20:35
- isn't failing at Halo enough for you? - Pete Sep 4, 20:32 2
  - Halo skee-ball would be awesome. There's a video of it somewhere on the web - it was either Halo or Half-Life ... -- nm - Beryllium Sep 4, 20:34 1
    - I'll play! -- nm - Pete Sep 4, 20:37
- isn't failing at fantasy sports enough for you? - mickpix Sep 4, 20:31 2
  - are you calling me out on skee? oh, its on -- nm - crash davis Sep 4, 20:33 1
    - it's not like golf. you don't do better by scoring in the low holes -- nm - mickpix Sep 4, 20:35
- apparently there's a bar in Manhattan that has a skee-ball tournament -- nm - znufrii Sep 4, 20:31 1
  - that sounds cool - I like bars with games. For example, I'd love to play trivia against mandy some night -- nm - crash davis Sep 4, 20:38
- They have skee ball at the Mini Golf course in Boise. That place is fun. -- nm - Redmond Sep 4, 20:31 2
  - As long as there isn't some freaky stuffed gorilla playing drums on "Summertime, summertime, sum sum summertime" I'll go with him. - Trish Sep 4, 20:35
  - I like going to this place in Boise called PoJo's. Its a silly remnant of my childhood. -- nm - crash davis Sep 4, 20:32
- "I could swear I was playing virtual skee-ball!" -- nm - mafic Sep 4, 20:31
Good line Bery. I'm stealing that for my blog. -- nm - Name Withheld By Request Sep 4, 20:29 3
- Which one? Not the t-rex one, i hope. -- nm - Beryllium Sep 4, 20:31 2
  - "Yes, but I was talking about the websites..." -- nm - Name Withheld By Request Sep 4, 20:31 1
    - oh, hah :) -- nm - Beryllium Sep 4, 20:31
"so you feel that your party is the only one that can fix the damage that your party has done?" - dogbert183 Sep 4, 20:27 3
- The best comeback for that would be, "yes. absolutely. I believe it's our responsibility to do that." -- nm - Beryllium Sep 4, 20:29 2
  - but that would mean that someone would have to actually accept responsibility, and george doesn't have anyone else to throw under the bus -- nm - dogbert183 Sep 4, 20:31 1
    - and also, just because you admit responsibility, doesn't mean you have a good plan to fix things -- nm - Roger More Sep 4, 20:33
"Is Pete remlik?" "No Pete is Bald Bait" -- nm - crash davis Sep 4, 20:27 4
- He should make that his user id. -- nm - David Sep 4, 20:35
- you're on the list. -- nm - Pete Sep 4, 20:29 2
  - Ya know, I missed this last night. It made me crack up when crash just showed it to me. -- (link) - Trish Sep 4, 20:31
  - I don't fear your list. It isn't capitalized like pixie's "The List" -- nm - crash davis Sep 4, 20:31
So, regarding this slackertalk thing. If they change the format of the boards on TT, would everyone move here? - Subversive Sep 4, 20:27 22
- Good question. I thought David said he wouldn't. As for new blood, we'd have to recruit. Or maintain a presence at HSX for just that purpose. -- nm - mara Sep 4, 20:28 2
  - I said that if they change the boards, that's welcome since it would have better tech. - David Sep 4, 20:34 1
    - aww shucks. Thanks. :) -- nm - Beryllium Sep 4, 20:35
- I would. (and we'd lurk on new TT for new blood). -- nm - mafic Sep 4, 20:28
- This shows up in all of the major search engines. It wouldn't surprise me if non TTers find it. -- nm - Redmond Sep 4, 20:28
- I think I can get awat with 'hsx" at work, but "slackertalk" would push it. -- nm - The Calico Cat Coalition Sep 4, 20:28 8
  - Dude, use slickertalk at work. Duh. -- nm - mara Sep 4, 20:29
  - that's what "slickertalk" is for -- nm - Beryllium Sep 4, 20:28 6
    - I must have missed the memo...thanks -- nm - The Calico Cat Coalition Sep 4, 20:29 5
      - yes, there are a few memos that haven't been fully circulated yet. Like the RSS feed trick (rss.php?username=[username]) to see people's replies to yo -- nm - Beryllium Sep 4, 20:30 1
        
        u -- nm - Beryllium Sep 4, 20:30
      - how could anyone fault you for using a didactic reference system? -- nm - mafic Sep 4, 20:30 2
        
        exactly! Not only is it a reference system, but it's an interactive reference system that *teaches* you! -- nm - Beryllium Sep 4, 20:30 1
        
        I referred to TT as my "information needs focus group" in my library's Twitter feed yesterday. -- nm - mara Sep 4, 20:32
- I really don't like the idea of nested posts, if that is what they are thinking of -- nm - crash davis Sep 4, 20:28 2
  - Yeah, people 'bumping' posts to the top, etc. - Subversive Sep 4, 20:30 1
    - and of course... bump -- nm - Roger More Sep 4, 20:38
- unfortunately -- nm - mickpix Sep 4, 20:28
- It has two domain names that both are very neatly named. Eventually people will find us. -- nm - Beryllium Sep 4, 20:27 3
  - What do you think about advertising slackertalk on the HSX fansite page? - Roger More Sep 4, 20:30 2
    - I'm torn ... for the time being it might be better to just see what develops, rather than pimping it out. -- nm - Beryllium Sep 4, 20:37 1
      - Probably the right move, for now. Wait and see if a permanent migration happens -- nm - Roger More Sep 4, 20:52
So what is wrong with TT? nm - Jovian Sep 4, 20:27 10
- Stacy started talking about the Myspace page so the RNC shut it down. -- nm - Dano Sep 4, 20:36 1
  - L4. -- nm - Subversive Sep 4, 20:38
- they scheduled 1 to 2 hours of downtime - Beryllium Sep 4, 20:28 1
  - That was yesterday, wasn't it? I thought today's was unexpected. -- nm - mara Sep 4, 20:30
- The TTers. -- nm - nubby Sep 4, 20:28
- Like we would know? Or, I don't know, maybe somebody who has D.Mac friended on Facebook *does* know. -- nm - mara Sep 4, 20:27 4
  - I bought D. Mac and he STILL won't tell me. -- nm - Qale Sep 4, 20:40
  - no I mean I hear all this talk about TT going away and all.. nm - Jovian Sep 4, 20:28 2
    - The beta version of the talk boards is a completely different format that a lot of Misc board people don't like. -- nm - mara Sep 4, 20:29 1
      - ahh, so our TT is going away, its just a matter of when. nm - Jovian Sep 4, 20:30
chuck E. FUCKING cheese! -- nm - mafic Sep 4, 20:26 4
- Best. First. Ever. -- nm - mara Sep 4, 20:27 3
  - I like badass mara. mara-cuda! -- nm - loosilu Sep 4, 20:29 2
    - Ooo, I like "maracuda." -- nm - mara Sep 4, 20:30 1
      - Me too!! -- nm - Redmond Sep 4, 20:31
