- I hope he survives this. I'd really like to see him. -- nm - Diva Aug 5, 09:13
from back boards - LYC/FWIW - I don't mind the game posts here ... sometimes it's funny. the "I GOT GOUDA" one totally confused me at first - then I - JenBro Aug 5, 09:12 16
- yeah. there's plenty here I don't much care about, but it's not that hard to ignore. - mafic Aug 5, 09:26 1
  - I have to admit - there are times when I learn of things first here - and that's just excellent for social conversations - JenBro Aug 5, 09:31
- If I tried to figure out the nature of every post or topic on ST, I would slowly go mad. -- nm - con_carne Aug 5, 09:14

  - I just love that when I say something like that, I'm a whiny douchebag...but when Reagen says it...well, he might have a point. nm - Jim Aug 5, 09:22 1
    - What are you whining about now?? Gawd... (nm) - Fuzzy Aug 5, 09:27
  - We're in a room where people discuss many things ad nauseum (football, the Oscars, health care, advice columns, etc.) There is no "on-topic" here. -- nm - psilotum Aug 5, 09:17 8
    - I found a toenail! -- nm - Beryllium si Aug 5, 09:18 7
      - (This is a reference to a few years ago, where I think I posted about my toenail falling off...) -- nm - Beryllium Aug 5, 09:19 6
        
        though it raises the question of whether you can stand in for yourself. -- nm - mafic Aug 5, 09:22 1
        
        and then comment on your own si. -- nm - psilotum Aug 5, 09:26
        
        it fell off? how come? -- nm - JenBro Aug 5, 09:21 3
        
        I was assembling a dresser or a bookshelf, and as I walked past, my little toe clipped it. - Beryllium Aug 5, 09:23 1

    - I think there are maybe eleven girls in the real world that would pass me up. In dreams, one would hope the number would be lower. - TFox Aug 5, 09:11 8
      - Hmmm... 11 is pretty close to the number of women on ST. Coincidence? -- nm - Roger More Aug 5, 09:20
      - New Star Wars? when is that IPO'ing? -- nm - JenBro Aug 5, 09:17
      - What you are dealing with goes way beyond self-esteem. -- nm - psilotum Aug 5, 09:14 5

  - Right. I get every girl I want, in my dreams. -- nm - Subversive Aug 5, 09:06
Watching the Price is Right .... does anyone remember, back in the day, when... - i'm not dead yet ! Aug 5, 09:00 18
- back when you had to be within $100 to win both showcases ... - zork Aug 5, 09:12
- Goodson/Todman. But yes...Todman did get removed at some point a while back. -- nm - Jim Aug 5, 09:09
- i remember that except it was Mark *Goodson* -- nm - zork Aug 5, 09:09 1
  - yes. yes it was. -- nm - mafic Aug 5, 09:09
- I do not remember a "Bill Todman" credit -- nm - con_carne Aug 5, 09:08
- you must be like, really old, man. - mafic Aug 5, 09:07
- You must have watched a lot more PIR than I have. :) -- nm - Subversive Aug 5, 09:07
- .....Drew Carey didn't suck the life out of a televised studio audience? -- nm - Will Hunting Aug 5, 09:01 10
  - [deleted] 9
    - Oh. My. God. What drugs was he ON? Copious amounts of vicodin? -- nm - Beryllium Aug 5, 09:15
    - Meh, I kind of give him a pass on that. They apparently did a full Slumdog there and stopped taping for hours and hours to figure out if he cheated. -- nm - Ender Aug 5, 09:15 3
      - And to the few people who know that.....it's explainable. To the 99.999% of the audience, Drew's just lousy in that moment. - Will Hunting Aug 5, 09:23 1
        
        seriosuly, it's basic acting here. of course, this is Drew Carey we're talking about here. -- nm - znufrii Aug 5, 09:24
      - heheh, nice. Still ... he could, like, raise his voice or something. -- nm - Beryllium Aug 5, 09:15
    - "I'm drew carey, and I hate what my life has become." -- nm - mafic Aug 5, 09:11 3
      - Granted, Bob Barker woulda had a heart attack, but still. -- nm - Will Hunting Aug 5, 09:13 2
        
        supposedly part of the excitement was lost because they stopped production for half an hour to investigate for cheating -- nm - zork Aug 5, 09:15 1
        
        I don't give a damn. You're on 'live' tv.....show some enthusiasm for the fact this happens every 35 years. -- nm - Will Hunting Aug 5, 09:21
Apple bans prolific iPhone developer ... -- (link) - Beryllium Aug 5, 08:51
[deleted] 2
- Sounds like he needed to have Jim Buck as a guest -- nm - Beryllium Aug 5, 08:42
- The 3:30 Brandy was robbed. (nm) - musubi Aug 5, 08:42
Dangit! The weather lied. It said it was going to rain tomorrow ... but now it's going to be sunny and 21C. I was hoping for rain :( -- nm - Beryllium Aug 5, 08:39 3
- Is that only when you are happy? -- nm - HdnAgnda Aug 5, 08:40 2
  - not "only", no. I don't believe in that emo Garbage ... ;-) I'd just like the heat wave to cool down, that's all. - Beryllium Aug 5, 08:41 1
    - yeah, I was talking to my brother on the weekend. he said vancouver had its 2 hottest days on record earlier that week. good times, good times. -- nm - mafic Aug 5, 08:56
The Claritin I took last night had an expiration date of 9/09. I think it may have gone bad. The new Claritin I took this morning seems much better. - Dano Aug 5, 08:31 17
- can you please also post the lottery numbers from the future??? -- nm - Danedukenuuk Aug 5, 09:02
- i assume that drug expiry dates have a safety factor of at least a year built in -- nm - zork Aug 5, 08:52 7
  - and one of my roommates works for a pharm company, he says it varies highly from drug to drug. -- nm - mafic Aug 5, 09:00 4
    - of course. different compounds have widely varying stabilities but you have to build in time to avoid extra litigation -- nm - zork Aug 5, 09:04
    - and when you're up most of the night itchy, you're willing to try your options. -- nm - Dano Aug 5, 09:02 2
      - next time: bathtub of hydrocortizone. -- nm - mafic Aug 5, 09:05 1
        
        I will take an oatmeal bath tonight. I didn't feel like going to the store all splotchy last night. -- nm - Dano Aug 5, 09:07
  - if anyone would know, it'd be Dano. -- nm - mafic Aug 5, 08:59
  - just like milk! -- nm - Dano Aug 5, 08:57
- I'm betting coincidence. I'm skeptical of many of those expiration dates. -- nm - pmb Aug 5, 08:37 6
  - But after last night's itchiness I wanted to try all options. -- nm - Dano Aug 5, 08:42 2
    - Whenever I was in the midst of an allergic reaction I always took Benadryl. That's what the hospital would give me for anaphylaxis. - Diva Aug 5, 08:46
    - Wait. Don't you have a PhD in this medicine-y stuff? (nm) - musubi Aug 5, 08:43
  - "Expiration" dates on most medicines are merely indicators of when their efficacy starts declining, I think. - musubi Aug 5, 08:41 1
    - although some med's can turn bad and be harmful but I certainly wouldn't expect that the moment the expiry date passes (too many potential lawsuits) -- nm - zork Aug 5, 09:02
  - Agreed. -- nm - con_carne Aug 5, 08:38
- Tonight, on FOX: When Good Claritin Goes BAD!! -- nm - Beryllium Aug 5, 08:34

FInd films available online through speedcine.com (beta launched). The interface isn't that user friendly at this point. -- (link) - Dano Aug 5, 08:20 1
- And here's a news article on where they want to go with this. -- (link) - Dano Aug 5, 08:23

  - Dexter S1 is coming up soon in my queue, but I think I want to slog through Buffy and Angel first... -- nm - con_carne Aug 5, 08:44
- The International - C. Seriously did not live up to all the potential I thought it had. And the ending was stupid. -- nm - Subversive Aug 5, 08:26
SITWAP? Penelope Cruz and Javier Bardem expecting baby. -- (link) - Andie Aug 5, 08:09 32
- Another hottie ruined! -- nm - con_carne Aug 5, 08:31 1
  - Just because he slept with Penelope Cruz, I wouldn't call him *ruined*. -- nm - Dano Aug 5, 08:32
- guess she won the coin flip -- nm - 500 dugs of summer Aug 5, 08:26

  - it might not be *cute* per se, but it's got sexy genes like crazy! -- nm - Andie Aug 5, 08:24 6
    - That baby is gonna be smoldering! -- nm - Dano Aug 5, 08:28 5
      - sexy babies are the *best*! -- nm - Andie Aug 5, 08:31 4
        
        i actually really hate that society has made it ok to call babies and children sexy -- nm - zork Aug 5, 09:20 1
        
        (you know we're kidding, right?) -- nm - Andie Aug 5, 09:24
        
        A smoldering, continental baby with a Castilian accent and Almodovar as the Godfather. -- nm - Diva Aug 5, 08:34 1
        
        or the godmother, maybe. -- nm - Diva Aug 5, 08:38

        ok, true. Oh, all of Cher's kids. ACK. -- nm - loosilu Aug 5, 08:30
  - I dunno - seeing Javier Bardem's face on a baby could be disturbing - Roger More Aug 5, 08:19 8
    - not sure why there was so much Suri-hate but she's certainly a cute kid these days -- nm - zork Aug 5, 08:20 7
      - adorable and the best prize goes to : Shiloh - Pitt/Jolie - but I bet Baby Nailah gets it in a few years - Epiphany Aug 5, 08:36 5
        
        People had a picture up a few weeks ago of Jolie's first movie role at age 7 - it could have been Shiloh. - kelly Aug 5, 08:39 3
        
        Pics here of Angie at age 2. I actually think Shiloh is prettier. -- (link) - loosilu Aug 5, 08:46 2

      - more toward her parents. -- nm - loosilu Aug 5, 08:22
Vacuuming your PC is a bad idea, for the record. Vacuums tend to have some magnetism, a bad idea when dealing with hard drives and microchips. -- nm - Subversive Aug 5, 07:58 3
- not to mention you can suck components right off your motherboard.. - colinski Aug 5, 08:04
- I usually just use a pair of tweezers on the CPU fan to get the heavy stuff. - Jelly Aug 5, 08:01

- "Named after a character in Fellini's 8 1/2" *stops reading* -- nm - con_carne Aug 5, 08:02 2
  - Saraghina sings "Be Italian" in "Nine" (musical version of 8 1/2). It's teh awesome. Interesting character too. -- nm - Diva Aug 5, 08:04 1
    - great song, but a poor choice, imho, to put over the trailer. -- nm - znufrii Aug 5, 08:09
- hah! - znufrii Aug 5, 08:02 11
  - [deleted] 10
    - then explain how a neighborhood can have an establishment *that* pretentious and *not* be considered "up-and-coming". :) - znufrii Aug 5, 08:08 9
      - I've been hearing that Bed Stuy is up and coming since like 2000. -- nm - loosilu Aug 5, 08:11 8
        
        oh sure, and it still is. - znufrii Aug 5, 08:14 7
        
        don't a lot of people just lie about which neighborhood it is, like calling it Clinton Hill or something? -- nm - loosilu Aug 5, 08:15 6
        
        "neighborhood creep" I call it, and yes, Bed-Stuy is a prime candidate for it. -- nm - znufrii Aug 5, 08:17 5
        
        I thought that's what people called Dignan. - loosilu Aug 5, 08:18 1
