        I would take Monica in that Kobe Ashimaru -- nm - Redmond, Go Ducks!! Nov 27, 16:55 1

My eyes hurt from too much MW2. -- nm - Loyola Nov 27, 16:33

I LOVE, absolutely LOVE how retailers ALWAYS say, "shop early THIS year we are running low inventories and sales won't be as good later as they are now - Redmond, Go Ducks!! Nov 27, 16:32 5
- I heard inventories are low this year because of low expectations. Just sayin'. -- nm - con_carne Nov 27, 16:43 1
  - Oh it may be, but I hear this EVERY year. Every year it's run out now because it's all going to be gone before Christmas. - Redmond, Go Ducks!! Nov 27, 16:47
- The real deals are at the end of January as many states have an inventory tax counted Feb 1st or 2nd -- nm - zeitgeist Nov 27, 16:34 1
  - They have great deals the week after Christmas now, because people return stuff and they want to keep the money in their store. -- nm - Redmond, Go Ducks!! Nov 27, 16:35

  - where is the guy planning to get a litter box/cat litter? -- nm - Beryllium Nov 27, 16:37 9
    - It's just a kitten. When he goes, get some tissue paper and clean it up. You could put down a towel, pen him in with some boxes in a corner. - Loyola Nov 27, 16:42 3
      - Do you have cats? Or carpets? :) -- nm - Beryllium Nov 27, 16:55 2
        
        Yes and yes. Cat's are easy to train. Young cats have never been a problem for us. - TWuG Nov 27, 16:57
        
        I used to have a cat but he hadn't a word of english so I got rid of him ;) -- nm - Loyola Nov 27, 16:56
    - (And I know you're thinking "um, the store" - but are people really willing to go to the hassle of buying 1 or 2 sets of box+litter while traveling?) -- nm - Beryllium Nov 27, 16:38 2
      - You can get disposable boxes and litter is cheap (or can be). -- nm - TWuG Nov 27, 16:46

    - Drunk Dawson pees on the floor more than the cat ever could. -- nm - Redmond, Go Ducks!! Nov 27, 16:37 1
      - but budweiser is slightly less offensive to the nostrils than cat urine. -- nm - Beryllium Nov 27, 16:38
- you're totally in the right to refuse - znufrii Nov 27, 16:25 5
  - agree 110% -- nm - Beaker Nov 27, 16:33

        It was much less gay-looking of a city than I expected - ty97 Nov 27, 16:50
    - Where is the cat staying while he's in Cancun? -- nm - Beryllium Nov 27, 16:27 6
      - [deleted] 5

- Then again I don't see how it's such a big deal that random people got close to him - Guigue Nov 27, 15:48 2
  - It was a security breach. You can't take those lightly. It could also be bad PR if a felon managed that. - TWuG Nov 27, 16:41
  - It was an event that was supposed to have the utmost security. If anyone gets in who shouldn't be there, it's a double face-pie. - Beryllium Nov 27, 16:02

so what's the word on boondock saints 2? good? bad? indifferent? -- nm - reluctantcynic (en treo) Nov 27, 15:08 7
