Work is having a Casino Royale-themed business party. - Beryllium Nov 3, 12:40 10
- so you go as an indian? -- nm - marcel Nov 3, 12:45
- James Bond themed Casino & Hotel -- nm - Max Nov 3, 12:44 3
  - *woosh*. There are two Casino Royale films. I'll admit I haven't seen the original, but it would be fun to borrow some ideas from it. :) -- nm - Beryllium Nov 3, 12:45 2
    - I was just typing out loud from yesterday's casino theme poll. -- nm - Max Nov 3, 12:47
    - Max needs to update his data base. -- nm - Spawn Nov 3, 12:45
- I would rock that shit. -- nm - Spawn Nov 3, 12:42 1
  - Coworker says "To keep with the theme, I'm going to poison someone's martini", to which I replied ... - Beryllium Nov 3, 12:44
- If it's the 60s version, no one over 4 foot 6 would be allowed -- nm - Roger More Nov 3, 12:41 1
  - but ursula would be severely underdressed -- nm - lone canadian leafs fan Nov 3, 12:44
- (christmas party. d'oh.) -- nm - Beryllium Nov 3, 12:41
New ST Game.. "I (Don't) Believe it." Tell us if you believe or not the following "Chris Martin cheating on Gwynnie with Kate Bosworth." -- (link) - Andie Nov 3, 12:37 10
- No it's a paradox - liking coldplay would make her gay thus not interested. -- nm - Trick or Pippy Nov 3, 12:45
- those are some nice pics. Also, who writes for them? I really had a hard time undestanding that article -- nm - CQ Nov 3, 12:43 1
  - [deleted]
- I don't think elegance and class for either of the rumored pair, so... -- nm - David Nov 3, 12:41
- believe it, there have been rumours of problems in the marriage for a while -- nm - Andie Nov 3, 12:40
- I believe that Chris Martin sold his soul - or something - to the Debil. -- nm - JaxSean Nov 3, 12:40 1
  - That debil be a baddie -- nm - CQ Nov 3, 12:42
- believe it, because Bosworth has similar facial features as Paltrow. -- nm - Max Nov 3, 12:39
- Kate Bosworth is much hotter than Gwenyth, but Chris Martin is really ugly so I say I don't believe that. - MDH Nov 3, 12:38 1
  - I like your math. -- nm - Spawn Nov 3, 12:41
tru - lets try to round up a couple folks and see if we can do Security Zone for the achievement tonight -- nm - crash davis Nov 3, 12:35 1
- heh. oky doky mr leaderman. -- nm - tRuMaN Nov 3, 12:36
Well, I've been using Windows 7 for a little bit now. I'm having a hard time coming up with anything I don't like about it - oblique Nov 3, 12:34 13
- should I upgrade from Vista? It probably costs something, no? -- nm - CQ Nov 3, 12:38 5
  - I think that would depend on how far you are from buying a new computer. -- nm - Ender Nov 3, 12:44
  - I would. I got my upgrade for $50 I think preordered from Amazon. Not sure what they're going for now -- nm - oblique Nov 3, 12:39
  - yes, unless your PC came with a Windows 7 upgrade coupon -- nm - Beryllium Nov 3, 12:38 2
    - Is there a main reason why I should, because everything seems fine to me with vista -- nm - CQ Nov 3, 12:41 1
      - If you're comfortable with what you have now, no reason to bother. -- nm - Beryllium Nov 3, 12:42
- The NAS thing is a deal breaker, for me. - Spawn Nov 3, 12:35 6
  - It's not hard to work around and really only affects the "Libraries" feature - oblique Nov 3, 12:38
  - [deleted] 4
    - If only Nas hadn't gotten so lazy with the repeated gay slurs in that battle, it would have been a lot closer. -- nm - TFox Nov 3, 12:38 3
      - [deleted] 2
        
        If he'd stopped there, it'd be ok. It was the "you's a d!ck-ridin f****t" exclamation point he put on it that was overboard, imo. -- nm - TFox Nov 3, 12:43 1

FX made a sitcom about a fantasy football league? I don't know whether to tune in or run away in horror. -- nm - TFox Nov 3, 12:30 5
- [deleted] 2
  - I have! And I did. -- nm - TFox Nov 3, 12:34 1
    - [deleted]
- It wasn't bad. - Cuzzin Todd Nov 3, 12:32
- I set the TiVo to record it after I realized it wasn't a joke. I'm not sure if I'm rooting for funny or train wreck. -- nm - David Nov 3, 12:31
[deleted] 1
- oh yeah? BEWARE MY CORONAL MASS PRESENT EJECTION! -- nm - Sol Nov 3, 12:32
Where is Jack Dawson with my update? -- nm - CQ Nov 3, 12:29

  - Oh, look. ML saw me post something from the Onion and thought I was being serious so he tried to make a remark to humiliate me. -- nm - Mop (231 lbs) Nov 3, 12:27 1
    - [deleted]
Dano Reagen, Private Eye. -- nm - nubby Nov 3, 12:22 4

  - The Twugnubby was brillig. All mimsy were the borogoves -- nm - TWuG Nov 3, 12:27
Do you remember Frank, the paperboy and the porch - marcel Nov 3, 12:20 5
- (spoilers) - oblique Nov 3, 12:22 4
  - meant to include a ? because I'm not sure -- nm - oblique Nov 3, 12:22 3
    - was there a frank? -- nm - marcel Nov 3, 12:27 2
      - No. It was Carl and Russel but maybe your friend is misinformed -- nm - oblique Nov 3, 12:29 1
        
        and the paperboy was a boy scout .. other than that you may be onto something :-) -- nm - marcel Nov 3, 12:34

    - Nikki also top Kate -- nm - FabioParme Nov 3, 12:47
- Jack, Sawyer and that guy from Suddenly Susan -- nm - Trick or Pippy Nov 3, 12:29
- Juliet, Charlotte, Kate. -- nm - Remlik Nov 3, 12:28 7
  - yep -- nm - TFox Nov 3, 12:29 6
    - I must be confused who Charlotte is, then. -- nm - Spawn Nov 3, 12:30 5
      - here -- (link) - TFox Nov 3, 12:31 [Image] 4
        
        No, I was right. Sixth on the list. -- nm - Spawn Nov 3, 12:33 3
        
        You think Charlotte, who looks like your wife, is sixth? -- nm - David Nov 3, 12:35 2
        
        My wife does not have demon eyes. -- nm - Spawn Nov 3, 12:35 1
        
        this is true. -- nm - Remlik Nov 3, 12:44
- Juliet.... (big gap)... Penelope, Kate. -- nm - Spawn Nov 3, 12:27
- Kate - marcel Nov 3, 12:27
- the producers who are burning in Hell for lying to us over & over - peglegpete Nov 3, 12:27
- Agreed with your three. -- nm - TWuG Nov 3, 12:24
- Guys: Boone, no one else Girls: Kate, Juliet, Charlotte -- nm - MDH Nov 3, 12:23 3
  - Boone is way hotter on the Vampire Diaries. - Trick or Pippy Nov 3, 12:30 2
    - ugh. I think he looks ludicrous. - Callisto Nov 3, 12:33 1
      - I must be a sucker for the big eyes - it's almost campy - Trick or Pippy Nov 3, 12:35
David, Remlik - do you have two available hours tonight? -- nm - crash davis Nov 3, 12:18 5
- so crash, do we attempt some other map firefight achievement? - tRuMaN Nov 3, 12:35
- negative. I won't be home till 10pm and it's Sons of Anarchy night! -- nm - Remlik Nov 3, 12:29 1
  - its probably just as well, because basically you're Clay and I'm Jax -- nm - crash davis Nov 3, 12:33
- No, this is a busy week on the site. -- nm - David Nov 3, 12:28 1
  - ah, well being busy is better than the alternative -- nm - crash davis Nov 3, 12:31

- All fair points. I certainly don't see this election as a referendum on Obama. - Dr.Vermin Nov 3, 12:22
Here's a Facebook question for you... what's the difference between a 'group' page and a 'business' page? - Dr.Vermin Nov 3, 12:17 5
- Thanks, you guys. -- nm - Dr.Vermin Nov 3, 12:43 1
  - No prob, Bob. -- nm - Spawn Nov 3, 12:44
- A business (or Fan) page is more like a regular profile in that it can do just about everything a regular Facebook user can do - oblique Nov 3, 12:20
- Incorporated evil vs non? -- nm - Spawn Nov 3, 12:19
- Near as I can tell, the 'business' page is usually better. easier to control your brand and content, push out info to your 'fans', etc. -- nm - TFox Nov 3, 12:19
The trailer for Beau Travail. (The #6 film on the Paste list) -- (link) - Dano Nov 3, 12:17 [youtube]
crash, you dont supposed. you state, emphatically. - tRuMaN Nov 3, 12:14 2
- okay, I order you to round up the usual suspects. - crash davis Nov 3, 12:16 1
  - sorry, see, as the leader, you cannot delegate either. - tRuMaN Nov 3, 12:17
LYC: Panera won. Chicken Noodle soup wit -- nm - lileve Nov 3, 12:08 1
- FEK: with an apple and a cinnamon crunch bagel. -- nm - lileve Nov 3, 12:09
Worth reposting. The gov't shouldn't be concerned with who's having sex with whom. "Marriage" is a religious ceremony thus has no place in gov't. - Mop (231 lbs) Nov 3, 12:06 [Backboard] 1
- you sure about those first two words? -- nm - crash davis Nov 3, 12:08
Good news for STers: you will not be able to come up with the dumbest thing I've heard this week. - TFox Nov 3, 12:05 27
- Clearly I'm not trying hard enough. /redoubles efforts. -- nm - Mop (231 lbs) Nov 3, 12:26
- The only way you could make that idea better would be to have a mystery stolen base. If you're the first team to steal the mystery base you get 5 - pmb Nov 3, 12:14 12
  - The Damon Bonus! -- nm - David Nov 3, 12:30
  - "So the count is 2 blurns to 3 anti-blurns..." -- nm - Reagen Nov 3, 12:16 2
    - Except for the word blurn, nothing you said made sense -- nm - Roger More Nov 3, 12:17 1
      - It is the bad kind of puppy! (nm) - David Nov 3, 12:31
  - that's actually pretty good -- nm - prayformojo Nov 3, 12:15
  - and pitchers have the option to hit off a tee. -- nm - TFox Nov 3, 12:15 6
    - Come on. Now you're just being silly. -- nm - pmb Nov 3, 12:18
    - Or play via X-box. -- nm - Spawn Nov 3, 12:15 4
      - Also, teams with two outs can opt to cash in baserunners for partial runs and end the inning. - TFox Nov 3, 12:16 3
        
        I like this idea. I also want Victoria's Secret to sponsor lingerie model cheerleaders to heckle the pitcher -- nm - crash davis Nov 3, 12:21 1
        
        And I want live bands for pitcher intro music. -- nm - Spawn Nov 3, 12:24
        
        Actually, Howie Mandel comes out between batters when there are men on base and calls the press box to find out the run offer. -- nm - pmb Nov 3, 12:19
- [deleted] 1
  - it was certainly what made me think of it. the Christmas part, anyway. "that's the craziest friggin... oh, wait. nope." -- nm - TFox Nov 3, 12:10
- well, this is a good contestant .. -- (link) - marcel Nov 3, 12:07
- *whistles innocently* - znufrii Nov 3, 12:07 8
  - with no days off. -- nm - tRuMaN Nov 3, 12:09 7
    - I'd even give them one day off for travel. 3 home, 3 away. All-star game decides whogets to pick where the series starts. -- nm - znufrii Nov 3, 12:11 6
      - but on the whole, I'm of the "if it ain't broke, don't fix it" contingent. -- nm - znufrii Nov 3, 12:12 5
        
        except its broke now. - tRuMaN Nov 3, 12:15 4
        
        The earlier rounds of the playoffs need some tightening up, sure. The WS itself needs to start sooner as well. - znufrii Nov 3, 12:22 3
        
        The off days for tv were kinda insane this year. Back to back nights in different cities, gaps in nights in the same city. -- nm - Spawn Nov 3, 12:29 1
        
        unless you have a weather delay, you shouldn't have days off except for travel, imho. - znufrii Nov 3, 12:41
        
        maybe. -- nm - tRuMaN Nov 3, 12:26
- Where can I sign up for your friend's newsletter? -- nm - Spawn Nov 3, 12:07
so what comes to mind first as a notable omission from the paste list? - prayformojo Nov 3, 12:05 20
- The lack of films from Asia. -- nm - the wrong element, bad guy Nov 3, 13:15
- The Wonder Boys -- nm - Max Nov 3, 12:20 1
  - God, I loved that movie -- nm - con_carne Nov 3, 12:45
- Brick -- nm - nubby Nov 3, 12:18 1
  - God, I loved that movie -- nm - con_carne Nov 3, 12:44
- I'm not sure this list is 100% accurate, but here are the movies that received Picture, Directing, Acting, Writing, or Cinematography nominations - Max Nov 3, 12:13 1
  - (nominated by Oscar or by the guilds) -- nm - Max Nov 3, 12:15
- Moulin Rouge -- nm - AJRimmer Nov 3, 12:13
- Given the rest of the list, no German films (eg Downfall, The Lives of Others) was a surprise -- nm - Roger More Nov 3, 12:12
- WALL-E, The Queen. -- nm - Callisto Nov 3, 12:12 2
  - Before Sunset, In Bruges, You Can Count on Me. -- nm - Callisto Nov 3, 12:15 1
    - That would make a nice title for a film .. -- nm - marcel Nov 3, 12:17
- Wall-E, Slumdog, and your IM -- nm - TFox Nov 3, 12:08 2
  - And Crouching Tiger probably. -- nm - TFox Nov 3, 12:10 1
    - And Casino Royale too. -- nm - TFox Nov 3, 12:11
- I like your answer. -- nm - kelly Nov 3, 12:08
- Both you and Inigo make good points. Since Iron Man was better than Dark Knight, that's a strange omission. -- nm - David Nov 3, 12:07
- Transformers :-) -- nm - MDH Nov 3, 12:06 1
  - Not Attack of the Clones? :) -- nm - Roger More Nov 3, 12:09
- United 93 -- nm - Inigo Nov 3, 12:05
epic -- (link) - marcel Nov 3, 12:03 [youtube] 4
- What is it? -- nm - Inigo Nov 3, 12:04 3
  - I was thinking about posting the same thing, and I was worried that someone would try to answer seriously -- nm - crash davis Nov 3, 12:05 1
    - the goldfish at the end -- nm - *gasps* Nov 3, 12:06
  - It's it. -- nm - Spawn Nov 3, 12:05
