ST after dark is great when I have insomnia!!!!! -- nm - JenBro Oct 20, 00:42
Realization: Spock wouldn't make the best elementary school teacher. -- nm - David Oct 20, 00:40 1
- I don't quite have a comeback for this. - Reagen Oct 20, 00:44
FWIW, I see little effective difference between blocking someone in your news feed and de-friending them - ty97 Oct 20, 00:38 9
- the big one is that you could choose to find out about them - should you care to - without having to suffer through the spam by just blocking. -- nm - mafic Oct 20, 00:44
- no she wanted to ingnore all mafia wars poists, ans instead of following the instructions on how to do that, she defriended. She still would have - Stacy Oct 20, 00:43 3
  - I was speaking generally, not about you, but I think you are incorrect. - ty97 Oct 20, 00:44 2
    - What kind of posts do you mean? Individual applications have a "hide messages from this application" option. - Beryllium Oct 20, 00:45 1
      - and some of the apps prompt you to use your status message to spam for them, which also bypasses the block. -- nm - mafic Oct 20, 00:48
- this is where using the word "friend" gets sticky. Unfriending someone is seen as an insult. Twitter has an advantage, slightly, with "following" -- nm - Beryllium Oct 20, 00:40
- oohhhh ... way to stir the pot!!!!! -- nm - JenBro Oct 20, 00:40 2
  - really not trying to, I promise. Was just expounding on a thought. -- nm - ty97 Oct 20, 00:42 1
    - sorry I called you out - it just read like "bait" :D -- nm - JenBro Oct 20, 00:45

- Johnathan Broxton sucks -- nm - eag Oct 20, 00:38
- I prefer real controversies, like which Darren was better on Bewitched. -- nm - Reagen Oct 20, 00:37 3
  - Kirk vs. Picard! Joel vs. Mike! -- nm - Tim Oct 20, 00:43 1
    - Kirk vs. Joel! -- nm - Reagen Oct 20, 00:44
  - there were two darrens? - Beryllium Oct 20, 00:38
- I'm not sure ... did you debate in school? Based on your principals name - did you attend Catholic school? I'm not at all sure I'm in your league. -- nm - JenBro Oct 20, 00:36 1
  - i did speech and debate one year. then the rest of HS i did mock trial - big time shamu Oct 20, 00:43
Awwww, why do bad things happen to assholes? (nmblink) - ralph wiggum Oct 19, 23:51 7
- actually, if you do figure it out - keep it to yourself - knowing could blow my theory about karma -- nm - JenBro Oct 20, 00:31
- Man I hated that guy. -- nm - Beryllium Oct 20, 00:11
- when you have the answer, will you please let me know? -- nm - big time shamu Oct 20, 00:01

  - gangsta rappers killing someone so they get real life experience to rap about, (actually true) -- nm - zeitgeist Oct 20, 00:28
  - And we have seen too many negative reality show stories lately - eag Oct 20, 00:06
  - breeding those nutrias that were going to be the next big meat/fur source -- nm - big time shamu Oct 20, 00:02
Speaking of Trish, she didnt like me explaining to her how to set up her facebook to her likes and not have to see other junk, so she unfriended me. - Stacy Oct 19, 23:25 41
- Spawn is right ... facebook is the devil. -- nm - JenBro Oct 20, 00:01 4
  - no, facebook is right . . . Spawn is the devil -- nm - big time shamu Oct 20, 00:01 3
    - speaking of messin' with sasquatch ;) -- nm - JenBro Oct 20, 00:03 2
      - hah! Spawn is, at best, Chaka from Land of the Lost -- nm - big time shamu Oct 20, 00:04
      - lol -- nm - Stacy Oct 20, 00:03
- do you honestly think that bringing this here is the winning play? -- nm - Reagen Oct 19, 23:46 27
  - I really don't care, she is no longer my friend. -- nm - Stacy Oct 19, 23:48 26
    - I have friends who aren't my friends on Facebook - ty97 Oct 20, 00:35 3
      - I have friend who arent my facebook friends as well, thats not the point. -- nm - Stacy Oct 20, 00:37 2
        
        You said she was no longer your friend, since she de-friended you. - ty97 Oct 20, 00:39
        
        No, the point is, you're an adult. Act like one. -- nm - Beryllium Oct 20, 00:39
    - which just makes your decision to post this even more puzzling. -- nm - Reagen Oct 19, 23:52 21
      - Better to vent it here than on facebook. -- nm - Stacy Oct 19, 23:54 20
        
        I... don't really follow that logic. What would be wrong with saying this on FB. Or why, pray tell, mention it at all? - Reagen Oct 19, 23:56 19
        
        I really don't care, she brought this on herself. -- nm - Stacy Oct 19, 23:59 18
        
        And you see this outcome being...? -- nm - Reagen Oct 20, 00:06 16
        
        Oh, Ray Ray. nm - ralph wiggum Oct 20, 00:08 15
        
        Allow me my rubbernecking! - Reagen Oct 20, 00:11 3
        
        I ignore those messages unless the other diplomat bitches about it. nm - ralph wiggum Oct 20, 00:24 2
        
        yup, brand new active. - Reagen Oct 20, 00:26 1
        
        *in*active. - Reagen Oct 20, 00:34
        
        I vented, why are you trying to turn this into something more? -- nm - Stacy Oct 20, 00:10 10
        
        I just wonder how you see this ending positively for you. -- nm - Reagen Oct 20, 00:12 8
        
        So you think everyone loyal to Trish will take her side and gang up on me? Given my track record this is probably true. -- nm - Stacy Oct 20, 00:16 7
        
        I think the point is that you need to resolve this with Trish - eag Oct 20, 00:22 2
        
        Thanks :) -- nm - Stacy Oct 20, 00:33
        
        yeah -- nm - Stacy Oct 20, 00:25
        
        Possibly true, but not my point. - Reagen Oct 20, 00:18 3
        
        Socks. Barack Obama. Done. -- nm - Beryllium Oct 20, 00:18 2
        
        Socks the cat, or socks the footwear? -- nm - Reagen Oct 20, 00:19 1
        
        I meant the footwear; specifically, toe socks. -- nm - Beryllium Oct 20, 00:20
        
        that was meant for Ray Ray -- nm - Stacy Oct 20, 00:11
        
        won't she be sorry too -- nm - big time shamu Oct 20, 00:04
- I never see your mafia crap, I just set it to ignore it, OTOH, do you ever say anything about anything else, I can't recall any posts from you lately -- nm - zeitgeist Oct 19, 23:45
- sounds about as wise as Messin With Sasquatch -- nm - big time shamu Oct 19, 23:33 6
  - she was expecting me to get rid of all of mafia wars posts for her, since she didnt want to see it. People have to take control of their facebooks.... -- nm - Stacy Oct 19, 23:35 5
    - Sounds like she did. -- nm - psilotum Oct 19, 23:42 4
      - yes she took the childish way to solve her problem, I was trying to be polite to her. She has an issue with people giving her directions. -- nm - Stacy Oct 19, 23:52 3
        
        Facebook Friends aren't necessarily actual friends. In facebook terms, Friends are merely a polite way of describing Acquaintances. - Beryllium Oct 20, 00:24 2
        
        most of my facebook firend are my real life friends -- nm - Stacy Oct 20, 00:35 1
        
        people I know outside of facebook, or people with a common interest. In fcact I have more interaction with them than with anyone on ST. -- nm - Stacy Oct 20, 00:36
My printer keeps beeping and saying it is out of toner. However the quality of the prints are still good. It isn't going to get messed up if I still - James Bond (aka Igor) Oct 19, 23:17 4
- wait you mean a printer maker might have it tell you to spend money on more toner before you actually have to? - big time shamu Oct 19, 23:20 3
  - Yeah, I am going to wait until I don't see anything on the paper. -- nm - James Bond (aka Igor) Oct 19, 23:24 2
    - take it out and give it a good shake if you get some bare streaks and that will distribute the last of it more evenly across, good for a couple dozen - zeitgeist Oct 19, 23:50 1
      - we do this at our work place too ... for years ... works every time ... well ...except the last time :) I mean ... before you REALLY have to replace. -- nm - JenBro Oct 20, 00:02

- my deck and street got flooded, but everything is fine now. -- nm - Stacy Oct 19, 23:07
- It always amuses me the way Californians react to rain. It's rain, not a blizzard. ;) -- nm - Cuzzin Todd Oct 19, 23:06 5
  - this wasn't just normal rain, which can be bad enough here, i agree. it really was flash-floody in spots, which is notable, at least. -- nm - b! Oct 19, 23:10
  - it always amuses me that a man could ever give the Proposal 4 out of 5 netflix stars -- nm - big time shamu Oct 19, 23:09
  - it was flash flood warnings....not just simple rain. -- nm - Stacy Oct 19, 23:09 2
    - and was totally not forecasted at all. ugh. -- nm - b! Oct 19, 23:12 1

- That is a surprising #1 ... -- nm - Beryllium Oct 19, 23:11
- Weird but they used less than flattering images of my all time favs but OTOH I always thought wtf about Nicole Richie but with the shot used here yeah -- nm - zeitgeist Oct 19, 23:02
- that can't be right -- nm - GWAA Oct 19, 22:59
- I wouldn't even have guessed that AOL still exists, much less that they have an active search engine. -- nm - Cuzzin Todd Oct 19, 22:38 5
  - why wouldn't they exist, with millions of accounts and now its free...hello. -- nm - Stacy Oct 19, 23:31 1
    - seriously, CT . . . HELLO! -- nm - big time shamu Oct 19, 23:49 1
  - As owner of TMZ and Web Blogs Inc, AOL is now one of the top creators of content online. -- nm - Mop Oct 19, 23:16 1

UCLA raising the bar: none of their students could tell Shakira was a girl when she took a class there this summer -- (link) - big time shamu Oct 19, 22:02 2
- A history class in the summer? Probably didn't have the brightest UCLA students. I bet it was full of USC kids.. they cross town over the summer so - James Bond (aka Igor) Oct 19, 22:42 1
  - USC students take the UCLA summer classes just as a lark. they're smart kids' ideas of goofing off -- nm - big time shamu Oct 19, 23:21
The Boondock Saints is streaming now on Netflix. -- (link) - JaxSean Oct 19, 21:38

ok - who is playing monopoly city streets? I'm a minor player - not even level 5 yet - and there's a Detroit gang beating up on me. - JenBro Oct 19, 21:17 5
- I've probably been deleted by now - sorry. -- nm - Cuzzin Todd Oct 19, 21:33
- I gave up on it after about 2 days. -- nm - Stephen Oct 19, 21:22 3
  - I have to admit - it wouldn't be nearly as interesting if I didn't have this gang trying to best me. I take great pleasure in luring - JenBro Oct 19, 21:33 2
    - It all sounds far too complicated -- nm - oblique Oct 19, 21:35 1
      - I'll likely tire of it as soon as I feel I've enacted proper revenge. -- nm - JenBro Oct 19, 21:50
Pixie Karma is an awesome force. -- nm - David Oct 19, 20:58 2
- still worth it to not have to watch the Braves blow it in the bottom of the ninth instead -- nm - big time shamu Oct 19, 21:15 1
  - I can even hear the tears in your reply. -- nm - David Oct 19, 21:17
Damn you, Broxton!!! -- nm - Mr. Havens Oct 19, 20:54
I don't know about unbeatens, but Carolina is the Bucs only shot at winning this year. -- nm - Reagen Oct 19, 20:54 2

  - I've done that. -- nm - David Oct 19, 21:48 1

What the f*ck is going on, Broxton?!?!?! Get your damn head in the game!!! -- nm - Mr. Havens Oct 19, 20:49

i predict there will be one ST fella eating Melting Pot at some point this week -- nm - big time shamu Oct 19, 20:47 7
- ok - catch me up - what's the karma stuff ... what's a melting pot ... and why "big time shamu" ? oh - and how's the date dating going? ( grin ) -- nm - JenBro Oct 19, 21:15 6
  - melting pot is a yummy fondue restaurant that Trish loves. -- nm - loosilu Oct 19, 22:22 4
    - and tried to kill remlik. one day, it's going to get her too -- nm - big time shamu Oct 19, 22:23 3
      - I'm sure it was Remlik's own damn fault. He probably cross contaminated the fork with raw chicken. -- nm - loosilu Oct 19, 22:25 2
        
        but I left it extra long in there. -- nm - Remlik Oct 19, 22:29 1
        
        you did *something*, or you wouldn't have puked. -- nm - loosilu Oct 19, 22:49
  - david is an assface. melting pot tried to kill remlik (hear that crash?) shamu just because he's a funny killer whale. no date dates yet -- nm - big time shamu Oct 19, 21:18
Which will be the last unbeaten: Denver, Indy, New Orleans, or Minny? -- nm - nubby Oct 19, 20:44 8
- New Orleans. The next month they play a bunch of crappy teams in a row. - JaxSean Oct 19, 21:03 2
  - I wouldn't categorize Atlanta as a "crappy" team, they're 4-1 after all. -- nm - Cuzzin Todd Oct 19, 21:30 1
    - I think that's their only hurdle. -- nm - JaxSean Oct 19, 21:35
- Anyone but Minny, dear God anyone but them -- nm - Stephen Oct 19, 20:48 1
  - I second this. - Cuzzin Todd Oct 19, 21:31
- Indy. Beats undefeated Minny in the Super Bowl. History. -- nm - Spawn Oct 19, 20:46 2
