- (my choices are basically london drugs or walmart) ... looks like my photos are best suited to 18x24 enlargements, although realistically they don't - Beryllium Nov 17, 20:25 2
  - You could crop to a different aspect ratio. -- nm - psilotum Nov 17, 20:39 1
    - ooh, london drugs has a built-in cropping tool. Slick. -- nm - Beryllium Nov 17, 20:58
- artscow.com nm - Dignan Nov 17, 20:23
- costco -- nm - zeitgeist Nov 17, 20:23
- I use Walgreens -- nm - b's future husband Nov 17, 20:20 2
  - I don't think that is an option in my country :) -- nm - Beryllium Nov 17, 20:57

Redmond Alert: Bacon mug -- (link) - nubby Nov 17, 20:10 [Image] 13
- Wow, that is really hot. I wonder what is inside it. -- nm - b's future husband Nov 17, 20:14 12
  - looks like beer. -- nm - loosilu Nov 17, 20:16 1
    - and the answer is beer. -- (link) - loosilu Nov 17, 20:17
  - Malted, cooled bacon grease, I'm guessing. -- nm - nubby Nov 17, 20:15
  - my first guess was bacon grease. -- nm - Beryllium Nov 17, 20:14 8
    - If you poured hot bacon grease into a bacon mug, it would melt the mug. -- nm - loosilu Nov 17, 20:19 6
      - I didn't say I thought it was *hot* bacon grease. More like ... a cylinder of solid bacon grease. :) -- nm - Beryllium Nov 17, 20:24 2
        
        It would have to be hot when you poured it. -- nm - mara Nov 17, 20:30 1
        
        well, I suppose. I'm thinking more along the lines of a cup-to-cup transfer of solid grease blocks ... but then the foamyness would probably be broken -- nm - Beryllium Nov 17, 20:37
      - when you fry up bacon, its laying in a pan of hot hot grease but the bacon don't melt, so there - zeitgeist Nov 17, 20:22 2
        
        it's all bendy and wouldn't hold a mug shape. -- nm - loosilu Nov 17, 21:12
        
        I love how you people are guessing, and theorizing. I am the bacon expert here. You want to know? You talk to me. -- nm - Redmond Nov 17, 20:37
    - that would make sense, how about nacho cheese....and bacon -- nm - zeitgeist Nov 17, 20:18
*blink* -- nm - b! Nov 17, 20:06 14
- It seems as though your future husband is attempting to impress the board with his knowhow and accumen. -- nm - Beryllium Nov 17, 20:07 13
  - Don't try to win her over with charming traits I have. All she needs to know is my company offers great spousal medical benefits. -- nm - b's future husband Nov 17, 20:08 12
    - oh, I thought her company was offering benefits to a spouse he didn't have...yet. nevermind, my health plan sucks - zeitgeist Nov 17, 20:20 5
      - right. I can add a spouse or qualifying domestic partner (for extra $). -- nm - b! Nov 17, 20:23 4
        
        Darn! You have benefits already? I thought you needed them. -- nm - Redmond Nov 17, 20:28 1
        
        there goes another internet fiance'. sigh. - b! Nov 17, 20:44
        
        Domestic partner always makes me think of Magenta and Columbia for some reason. -- nm - Qale Nov 17, 20:25 1
        
        or magneto and mystique -- nm - Beryllium Nov 17, 20:27
    - and free TP? -- nm - Beryllium Nov 17, 20:09 5
      - Yes!! And I have access to the top secret 5 ply prototype. -- nm - b's future husband Nov 17, 20:09 4
        
        Uh oh! Fuck it, we're going to SIX PLY!!! -- nm - Royale/Cottonelle Coalition si Nov 17, 20:10 3
        
        it's like an arms race between the TP and the razors. -- nm - loosilu Nov 17, 20:11 2
        
        Just don't get them reversed. -- nm - nubby Nov 17, 20:12 1
        
        OW -- nm - loosilu Nov 17, 20:19

- I just got over an ear infection a couple months ago. I couldn't hear out of it, but it also hurt really bad. - b's future husband Nov 17, 19:56 7
  - That's exactly what I'm using and its literally as if the water just went into my ear and got stuck -- nm - MDH Nov 17, 19:59 6
    - If you don't have pain repeat the steps. I believe it says to repeat if you don't get a result the first time. - b's future husband Nov 17, 20:04 2
      - Also!! My Grandfather taught me a trick. - b's future husband Nov 17, 20:06 1
        
        water stuck in your ... what? -- nm - loosilu Nov 17, 20:10
    - I used to get "swimmer's ear" every summer as a kid. Try putting some peroxide in there. - JaxSean Nov 17, 20:02 2
      - me too! ( swimmers ear as a kid I mean ) - only I found swabbing with apple cider vinegar works - JenBro Nov 17, 20:39 1
        
        you heard it on ST first - shove a japanese kitkat in there! -- nm - Beryllium Nov 17, 20:42
- "the remover"? -- nm - Beryllium Nov 17, 19:55 4

Well, either I've discovered a clinical diagnosis for the girl in Paranormal Activity or my Dad's possessed by a demon... - Ender Nov 17, 19:47 5
- So glad he had someone there to recognize the problem. -- nm - MojaveMeg Nov 17, 19:59

So, I just watched the final episode of the original The Prisoner. Hooooo boy, that was some mindfuck. -- nm - Beryllium Nov 17, 19:46 5
- yeah it was. The Beatles, at the time, never let anyone use thier music, but were fans of the show. -- nm - Remlik Nov 17, 19:51 3
  - Nice. It worked well. (Which is to say, it was completely incongruous with *everything else* in the episode, which is quite a feat. So it worked well. -- nm - Beryllium Nov 17, 19:51 2
    - I've watched that episode so many times & I still had to watch McGoohan's interview to understand it. -- nm - Remlik Nov 17, 19:52 1
      - I kind of want to bend my understanding of it so that it fits within the "secret agent man" zoetrope. -- nm - Beryllium Nov 17, 19:57
- I'm thinking that following it with a Being John Malkovich chaser would be a bad idea ... gran torino it is. -- nm - Beryllium Nov 17, 19:47
Yea, this is the best episode ever tonight on Sons -- nm - Jovian Nov 17, 19:42
I am not a number. -- nm - nubby Nov 17, 19:39 4
