ye into the valley of death we go - off to Twilight Saga: New Moon -- nm - 6 Nov 20, 09:01 17
- i read yesterday that Twilight is only a trilogy, so the pain is two thirds over already. - Loyola Nov 20, 09:05 11
  - Inability to count to "3" is hardly the worst offense of this "trilogy". -- nm - Mop (231 lbs) Nov 20, 09:06
  - I have some bad news for you. - mafic Nov 20, 09:06 9
    - and then she's writing them all again from Edward's POV. -- nm - Andie Nov 20, 09:06 7
      - Who's point of view are these from now? - Will Hunting Nov 20, 09:09 1
        
        Bella's silly. -- nm - Andie Nov 20, 09:10
      - On Oprah she said she was somewhat over vampires right now. It may be a long while. -- nm - Diva Nov 20, 09:09
      - lord, no. on the plus side, I suspect those would be hard to film. - mafic Nov 20, 09:09
      - Seriously?? nm - Jim Nov 20, 09:08

    - If he's not back in 2 hours, we've lost him. -- nm - Mop (231 lbs) Nov 20, 09:06 1
      - heh-heh... -- nm - Diva Nov 20, 09:12
Oh, I think I just figured why people ask that top/bottom question. They want to know how to stack them for when they burn in hell. nmbyoink - Zorkturi Nov 20, 08:57 2
- This was probably funnier in your head. -- nm - Jim Nov 20, 08:58 1
  - most likely. -- nm - Zorkturi Nov 20, 08:59
its old news, i know, but i find this stat interesting regarding the Pats/Colts game. - Guy Nov 20, 08:57 5
- Pretty simple, the Pats knew Manning would do it and they wanted to try and keep it out of his hands. -- nm - Spawn Nov 20, 08:58 4
  - they *knew* he was going to do something that only happened 4 times in as many years? -- nm - Guy Nov 20, 09:01 3
    - You're concentrating on the 2 other (already happened) TD's way too much. - Will Hunting Nov 20, 09:08
    - Peyton. Manning. - Spawn Nov 20, 09:04 1
      - If Jake Delhomme can't do it, no one can -- nm - Gwaahjo Nov 20, 09:06
Did we talk Survivor (spoilers) - The wraith of oblique Nov 20, 08:56
I wonder if there were any gay undercover Vs. -- nm - Max Nov 20, 08:53
GMA interview with "Chaz" Bono. -- (link) - Mop (231 lbs) Nov 20, 08:51 13
- No. - Epiphany Nov 20, 08:52 12
  - Dude, this is hardly the least offensive thread on this board. -- nm - Mop (231 lbs) Nov 20, 08:52 11
    - LOL!! I know - I just can't with her - I am not sure why this is even news. - Epiphany Nov 20, 08:54 10
      - I have to say, seeing the video of her as a little girl broke my heart. -- nm - Mop (231 lbs) Nov 20, 09:02
      - I just can't ^get^ with her -- nm - What Pippy meant Nov 20, 08:55 1
        
        Hee - -- nm - Epiphany Nov 20, 08:57
      - she's a him now, isn't he? -- nm - Beryllium Nov 20, 08:55 6
        
        yes and not attractive - not sure why I am being so mean today - sorry yall. -- nm - Epiphany Nov 20, 08:56 5
        
        it may hurt, but the truth is never mean. - Zorkturi Nov 20, 08:58 4
        
        It can be couched in meanspiritedness, quite easily (and quite often). -- nm - Beryllium Nov 20, 08:59 3
        
        but that's an issue of context, not of the truth itself... -- nm - znufrii Nov 20, 09:01 1
        
        Is context your only crutch for evading your conversational mis-steps? -- nm - Beryllium Nov 20, 09:03
        
        ... and it can also be taken that way. Emotions complicate the truth. -- nm - Beryllium Nov 20, 09:00
And I agree & disagree, Elizabeth Banks was spot on Modern Family, but Norton was not. -- nm - Jovian Nov 20, 08:50 4
- She had a few good lines I agree but I felt she diluted the quality of the other two characters she was with. And - HdnAgnda Nov 20, 08:53 3
  - I should throw you in the ocean. - Spawn Nov 20, 08:54 2
    - Would I be so reasonable if a friend, drunken stupor or not, threatened my child with death...more than once? - HdnAgnda Nov 20, 08:59 1
      - Yes and no. They got to the bottom of it rather quickly. if it had not been for that, they might have killed *her*. -- nm - Spawn Nov 20, 09:01
coworker to me: who are all the people downtown. me: catholic youth conference this weekend. - tRuMaN Nov 20, 08:48 1
- you should ask him ... - Beryllium Nov 20, 08:51
Back from Vegas. Am seriously considering buying a house to rent out there. - ceregon Nov 20, 08:45 2
- Think of all the people you can let live there! -- nm - Spawn Nov 20, 08:46 1
  - it's about a mile from UNLV, so lots of potential tenants there - ceregon Nov 20, 08:49
Glee spoiler from this week's episode - ty97 Nov 20, 08:40 20
- agreed. -- nm - b. Nov 20, 09:06
- my issue with that scene is * spoils* - Epiphany Nov 20, 08:49 2
  - My biggest issue was (spoils) - Jim Nov 20, 08:51 1
    - I can be down with what you are saying. horrible scene all the way around -- nm - Epiphany Nov 20, 08:52
- yup. but it all (spoiler) - Diva Nov 20, 08:44 11
  - true, it allow the storyline to continue, but HdnAgnda is spot on: horrible, horrible message -- nm - ty97 Nov 20, 08:46 10
    - True, but I don't think Glee wants to be 7th Heaven w/a good message every week. And as andie said, the arc isn't over. - Diva Nov 20, 08:51
    - The bottom line is: Glee is pretty horribly written and only serves as a showcase for music. - Jovian Nov 20, 08:48 8
      - Yeah, that was my assessment, but I also found it annoying instead of hilarious. -- nm - Spawn Nov 20, 08:50 3
        
        Oh that's not what I find hilarious at all. Its pretty much everything else. -- nm - Jovian Nov 20, 08:52 2
        
        I meant the show itself. -- nm - Spawn Nov 20, 08:53 1
        
        ohhhh. lol -- nm - Jovian Nov 20, 08:56
      - I disagree. They handle some issues well. -- nm - ty97 Nov 20, 08:49 3
        
        Some but not all. Both pregnancy storylines are questionable. -- nm - Diva Nov 20, 08:54 1
        
        I can say this was the saddest - most tear jerking episode yet. I want more merry making -- nm - Epiphany Nov 20, 08:56
        
        The pregnancy stuff is off the charts bad though. I mean really... between the wife and Quinn. ughhhh -- nm - Jovian Nov 20, 08:50
- Yeah that was the suck. In terms of good decision making and example setting to an audience I would consider very influential - HdnAgnda Nov 20, 08:42 1
  - but the arc isn't over. it won't end there. -- nm - Andie Nov 20, 08:45
- totally true. (more spoils) - Andie Nov 20, 08:42
- word to the IM - spoils - Beaker Nov 20, 08:41
Regarding the whole "gay position" thing...am I dumb for (spoils) - Jim Nov 20, 08:33 39
- [deleted]
- i actually heard something once, years ago, that i've wondered if it's true, but i've never felt it was my business to ask. -- nm - Andie Nov 20, 08:40 22
  - would knowing be a benefit for you? - Danedukenuuk Nov 20, 08:44 5
    - i learn things every day that aren't a 'benefit' to me. but i learn them none-the-less. i don't NEED to know about overseas politics - Andie Nov 20, 08:47 4
      - satisfying your curisoity gaves you some kind of benefit -- nm - Danedukenuuk Nov 20, 08:49 3
        
        It's not like it's the 3rd secret of Fatima. Being curious isn't a crime. - Loyola Nov 20, 08:52 1
        
        no it's actually a good thing - Danedukenuuk Nov 20, 08:53
        
        gaves??? gives :) -- nm - Danedukenuuk Nov 20, 08:49
  - you *can't* just leave it there. -- nm - mafic Nov 20, 08:41 15
    - fine, i'll ask the question and then be ridiculed for 'stereotyping' or whatever... - Andie Nov 20, 08:49 12
      - I bet that was his stance and he was trying to make it sound like the norm. -- nm - Spawn Nov 20, 08:52 1

        he'll show you, if you like. -- nm - mafic Nov 20, 08:52 2
        
        hell, he's showed 'em all. -- nm - Max Nov 20, 08:56

        [deleted] 2
        
        There's another comment to be offered up in support, as well, but it's ... been shown to be a disagreeable (and downright wrong) stance. -- nm - Beryllium Nov 20, 08:54
        
        now i know. - Andie Nov 20, 08:54
      - I wonder if Kinsey included that as part of his project. Probably. -- nm - Beryllium Nov 20, 08:50
    - "they use ducks, right?" -- nm - Beryllium Nov 20, 08:45 1
      - "they take the peanut butter *out* of the jar?" -- nm - znufrii Nov 20, 08:51
- Not always. -- nm - Spawn Nov 20, 08:39

  - Which circles around to your original question...why do people ask? -- nm - Jim Nov 20, 08:36 3
    - for heteros, no idea. for gays, it can be a compatiability issue (this post is probably slightly nsfw) - ty97 Nov 20, 08:48
    - I like Cuzzin Todd's answer on B2 as well - people trying to fit things into a context they understand -- nm - Roger More Nov 20, 08:40

- I play defensive back in bed. -- nm - CrankYanker Nov 20, 08:35 3
  - I don';t know what this means. -- nm - Beaker Nov 20, 08:41 2
    - he has a large bed or he likes wearing outfits at night -- nm - Danedukenuuk Nov 20, 08:42 1
      - Outfits, yes. Actually, I don't want anyone messing with my backside. -- nm - CrankYanker Nov 20, 08:49
- Your curiosity in this subject is disturbing the Force. -- nm - budice Nov 20, 08:34 4
  - You did notice that more people than just me responded in that thread, yes? nm -- nm - Jim Nov 20, 08:35 3
    - did you read my response? -- nm - Danedukenuuk Nov 20, 08:39 2
      - I think he is trying to avoid us. -- nm - Ricky Williams Nov 20, 08:40 1
        
        As ong as I've got that asterisk by my name...I'm not too worried the rest of the way through. - Jim Nov 20, 08:56

  - I'm not a fan of their matchmaking algorithm sometimes. How hard can it be to even the teams out? -- nm - Shaun Nov 20, 08:39 6
    - i dont think the system cares about even matches as much as full matches. -- nm - tRuMaN Nov 20, 08:40 5
      - That's unfortunate. I've been on the wrong side of crappy matches too often already. - Shaun Nov 20, 08:42 4
        
        What's your username? -- nm - Gwaahjo Nov 20, 08:59
        
        Now we're complaining about COD's matchmaking ability? - Will Hunting Nov 20, 08:53 1
        
        true true. -- nm - tRuMaN Nov 20, 09:09
        
        ayup. but it gives you a chance to earn extra xp - tRuMaN Nov 20, 08:48
