  - do you have any spare best friends? -- nm - Max Dec 15, 10:39
  - Ok fair enough. -- nm - Loyola Dec 15, 10:39
- this is the playground equivalent of pushing them together. -- nm - Reagen Dec 15, 10:38 1
  - I know, it's terrible, the having nothing better to do. -- nm - Loyola Dec 15, 10:38
- Really? Do you really think she didn't see it? -- nm - Jim Dec 15, 10:37 1
  - You never know. -- nm - Loyola Dec 15, 10:38
Fraud Alert! Someone just used my boss's Corporate CC in a Publix somewhere in FL. Hope they didn't need it for formula and diapers. -- nm - Diva Dec 15, 10:35 2
- Amusing sidenote to this: first time I was in FL and drove by a Publix I had to do a double take on the name... - Cuzzin Todd Dec 15, 10:37 1
  - yes - I've done that as well. -- nm - Diva Dec 15, 10:37
More popcorn, stat! -- nm - Will Hunting Dec 15, 10:32 1
- This is perfect because I'm eating vegetable spring rolls, and typing while doing that is a pain. -- nm - Loyola Dec 15, 10:33
You mean you can setup searches for posts? And plan and execute upgrades without going down for days at a time? Who knew! -- nm - HSX Dec 15, 10:26 31
- Does anyone (Bery) have any screenshots of old TT? A walk down memory lane would be heartwarming -- nm - Hotkiss Dec 15, 10:28 30
  - The final (before they brought it back). -- (link) - Let it Spawn, let it Spawn, let it Spawn! Dec 15, 10:34 [flickr] 2
    - *waves lighter* -- nm - Hotkiss Dec 15, 10:36
    - *sniff* -- nm - Andie Cane Dec 15, 10:36
  - wayback machine probably still has some -- nm - Andie Cane Dec 15, 10:30
  - Just insert a post in the middle of this board from DMac showing confusion and an inappropriate sense of value. -- nm - Will Hunting Dec 15, 10:29
  - Um...it looks exactly like this. -- nm - Jim Dec 15, 10:28 24
    - With HSX banner and everything! -- nm - Hotkiss Dec 15, 10:29
    - that's not true, and you know it! *deeply offended* -- (link) - Beryllium Dec 15, 10:29 22
      - such a delightful Christmas gift from Bery! -- nm - Hotkiss Dec 15, 10:32
      - Well, it looks exactly like this except not as cool! :) -- nm - Jim Dec 15, 10:31 20
        
        Is the new one still all orange-y? I haven't been back -- nm - Hotkiss Dec 15, 10:36 2
        
        *shrugs* I couldn't possibly care any less. -- nm - Jim Dec 15, 10:37
        
        no...but the posts show in reverse order (not that there are alot of posts though) -- nm - Beaker Dec 15, 10:36
        
        and there's no link icons, there's no hovertext over nicknames, there's no "new post" colouring ... -- nm - Beryllium Dec 15, 10:32 16
        
        You know I know all this right? nm - Jim Dec 15, 10:35 3
        
        heheh, yes, I know this. Since I was perusing it on the wayback machine, though, I was like "man, this is so awkward" - Beryllium Dec 15, 10:37
        
        Who are you? -- nm - adventy97 Dec 15, 10:35 1
        
        I AM Jim Van Nest. nm - Jim Dec 15, 10:36
        
        I can't imagine life without new post colouring anymore. -- nm - Hotkiss Dec 15, 10:33 11
        
        ... and there's no tinytext -- nm - Beryllium Dec 15, 10:33 10
        
        what the heck is tinytext? -- nm - Remlik Dec 15, 10:34 8
        
        scroll down. The text, it gets tiny, in threads with lots of posts. - adventy97 Dec 15, 10:35 6
        
        ah! Thanks to both of you. -- nm - Remlik Dec 15, 10:35 5
        
        This thread will get there if we keep responding to each other. -- nm - Jim Dec 15, 10:36
        
        it is a source of amusement for some -- nm - Beryllium Dec 15, 10:36 3
        
        I see! -- nm - Remlik Dec 15, 10:36 2
        
        (They like to pretend that the tiny text = an argument getting turned into a Chipmunk-like high pitched voice) -- nm - Beryllium Dec 15, 10:37 1
        
        that's because it does. -- nm - Diva Dec 15, 10:38
        
        scroll down. -- nm - Callisto Dec 15, 10:35
        
        drat, I miscounted -- nm - Beryllium Dec 15, 10:33
We watched Holiday Inn last night. B I guess. spoils? - Christmas VacaShaun Dec 15, 10:25 6
- *ding* -- nm - Remlik Dec 15, 10:35
- Is it White Christmas and Holiday Inn that are exactly the same story? -- nm - Andie Cane Dec 15, 10:26 3
  - WC is more of a 'do a selfless good deed' plot -- nm - black peter Dec 15, 10:32
  - yes, except White Christmas doesn't have the blackface number... -- nm - merry xmas and happy znu year Dec 15, 10:31
  - Didn't see WC, but my wife said she liked WC a lot better. -- nm - Christmas VacaShaun Dec 15, 10:29
- One of my favorite Christmas movies... -- nm - kelly Dec 15, 10:26

  - it's a *year* old, Jack. -- nm - Reagen Dec 15, 10:17

One of my brother's students gave him some chocolates from California....from See's Candy? - adventy97 Dec 15, 10:06 7
- Oh, I *love* See's Candy. -- nm - kelly Dec 15, 10:17
- I almost mentioned them when you asked about neighbor gifts...but wasn't sure if they were only Californian. - MistletoeMeg Dec 15, 10:16 1
  - I was at one of their stores last night. They have lots of cute holiday packages available, of varying sizes and prices. -- nm - con_carne Dec 15, 10:19
- mmmmmmmmmm -- nm - CrankYanker Dec 15, 10:15
- They're a local institution. - con_carne Dec 15, 10:14
- see here -- (link) - Beryllium Dec 15, 10:07
- their packaging is real cute -- nm - Hotkiss Dec 15, 10:06
So apparently Fedup is my best friend who has been lurking and posting even though I requrested him not to a few weeks ago. - Hotkiss Dec 15, 10:06 55
- *grabs the popcorn* -- nm - merry xmas and happy znu year Dec 15, 10:22 1
  - This will not end well. -- nm - Loyola Dec 15, 10:23
- *cue organ music* -- nm - MryyhDragon Dec 15, 10:18
- Interesting he posted in ty's thread two minutes after your post, - amoxy Dec 15, 10:17
- have you tried asking him to find out? -- nm - adventy97 Dec 15, 10:15 4
  - I just realized it about 15 minutes ago, no responses in text yet -- nm - Hotkiss Dec 15, 10:16 3
    - answer your phone! (i didn't know you were hotkiss) -- nm - Fednog Dec 15, 10:17 2
      - You guys should play this out here. Having secret conversations on the phone is not allowed. -- nm - Loyola Dec 15, 10:26 1 1
        
        L4 -- nm - Hotkiss Dec 15, 10:27
- [deleted] 24
  - friend. - Hotkiss Dec 15, 10:10 23
    - Then what is the big deal? -- nm - Let it Spawn, let it Spawn, let it Spawn! Dec 15, 10:11 20
      - Because I told him ST was my own little niche, much like he his own portals of the Internet elsewhere, and to please let me be on here. - Hotkiss Dec 15, 10:15 [Backboard] 19
        
        well, since you apparently don't want to deal with this privately, i supose we can air it out on ST - Fednog Dec 15, 10:29 1
        
        Oh it's on now. -- nm - Loyola Dec 15, 10:30
        
        And that BB post about me is a whole 'nother monster in and of itself. - Hotkiss Dec 15, 10:18 15
        
        Typically, that is *exactly* what they are. -- nm - Let it Spawn, let it Spawn, let it Spawn! Dec 15, 10:21 13
        
        I agree with mafic in that thread. -- nm - Beryllium Dec 15, 10:22 12
        
        Oh, I agree that is what they *should* be, but that is not how most people view it. - Let it Spawn, let it Spawn, let it Spawn! Dec 15, 10:23 5
        
        I never had a HS grad party, nor am I having a college one. I just wanted to send out an announcement to friends and family. - Hotkiss Dec 15, 10:26 4
        
        It *is* a big a deal. - merry xmas and happy znu year Dec 15, 10:30
        
        I would have noted, "Please, no gifts are necessary." - Let it Spawn, let it Spawn, let it Spawn! Dec 15, 10:29 1
        
        "but drinks are mandatory" -- nm - Remlik Dec 15, 10:36
        
        see, that's where my understanding of it breaks down. Notifying my friends and family takes two phone calls, a quick convo at work, and a post here :) -- nm - Beryllium Dec 15, 10:28
        
        So do I - but bringing that issue here is something else. -- nm - Roger More Dec 15, 10:23 5
        
        Yes and no. Those issues are brought here all the time. -- nm - Let it Spawn, let it Spawn, let it Spawn! Dec 15, 10:24 4
        
        Those types of issues, sure. But they're not really about other STers. -- nm - Roger More Dec 15, 10:28
        
        but generally we bring issues here to vent to outsiders. - Andie Cane Dec 15, 10:25 2
        
        How do we know that fedup's post was about hotkiss though? -- nm - Jim Dec 15, 10:29 1
        
        Um...nevermind. -- nm - Jim Dec 15, 10:30
        
        A pretty good one from my experience. - Will Hunting Dec 15, 10:18

    - Well, I'm at work right now, so I can't sign in to cross-reference GeoIP locations, at least not for another six hours ... -- nm - Beryllium Dec 15, 10:11 1
      - ... oh, guess I don't need to -- nm - Beryllium Dec 15, 10:21
- but, wasn't fedup on hsx? -- nm - Andie Cane Dec 15, 10:07 17
  - I thought that was Fedex. Does anyone remember a Fedex? Or am I going crazy? -- nm - Hotkiss Dec 15, 10:07 16
    - I thought fedup was also there. -- nm - Let it Spawn, let it Spawn, let it Spawn! Dec 15, 10:09
    - [deleted]
    - Fedex = Stacy -- nm - Beryllium Dec 15, 10:08 13
      - (what's the term we gave the Bery search again?) -- nm - Hotkiss Dec 15, 10:08 12

        Dr. S. Talk (see the left column) -- nm - Andie Cane Dec 15, 10:09 10
        
        yes, but I thought it was called Bery-something in the old TT days -- nm - Hotkiss Dec 15, 10:09 9
        
        no, you're thinking of Kilbotron (now called Dr. Tron, also in the left) -- nm - Beryllium Dec 15, 10:10 7
        
        Yes, the kilbotron! I loved that name -- nm - Hotkiss Dec 15, 10:11 6
        
        That was because kilbo invented and ran it. -- nm - Let it Spawn, let it Spawn, let it Spawn! Dec 15, 10:22 5
        
        Yep. I changed the name when I took it over from him and started adding improvements (like threaded display) -- nm - Beryllium Dec 15, 10:23 4
        
        I like how you don't even pretend you only modified it to placate kilbo's ego -- nm - Will Hunting Dec 15, 10:24 1
        
        The royalties were a bitch. -- nm - Let it Spawn, let it Spawn, let it Spawn! Dec 15, 10:25
        
        And what a fantastic job, I might add. I use it weekly -- nm - Hotkiss Dec 15, 10:23 1
        
        but it's so old now ... -- nm - Beryllium Dec 15, 10:24
        
        you mean the kilbotron? -- nm - Andie Cane Dec 15, 10:10
- heh. nm -- nm - groiny Dec 15, 10:06
- And you know this how? -- nm - Let it Spawn, let it Spawn, let it Spawn! Dec 15, 10:06 1
  - handle search, I know his writing style and word choices, the stuff he posts about -- nm - Hotkiss Dec 15, 10:07

Fedup, I live in the Bucktown area. - adventy97 Dec 15, 10:00 1
- yes, i have been looking in that region as well. but, it's all so pricey. ha, you guys wouldn't need another boarder would you? - Fednog Dec 15, 10:08
*elbows B1 as he steps off of B2* -- nm - merry xmas and happy znu year Dec 15, 09:59
where the hell is David? - groiny Dec 15, 09:59 4
- They left the little card that says it's an authentic Javy Lopez thing. - Callisto Dec 15, 10:15
- have you checked your goodie drawer? -- nm - Beryllium Dec 15, 10:00 2
  - That's really just his anal cavity. -- nm - Will Hunting Dec 15, 10:12
  - why yes, just last night. nm -- nm - groiny Dec 15, 10:01
Bunch of pizza elitists here. -- nm - Christmas VacaShaun Dec 15, 09:58 11
- word -- nm - Beaker Dec 15, 10:31
- I stopped eating it because it did horrible things to my intestinal tract -- nm - amoxy Dec 15, 10:18
- I'd rather eat the Domino's box than their pizza. -- nm - Reagen Dec 15, 10:12 3
  - I believe that this is 100% false. -- nm - Christmas VacaShaun Dec 15, 10:15 2
    - the box is chewier. -- nm - Reagen Dec 15, 10:18 1
      - Low carbs too I imagine. -- nm - Christmas VacaShaun Dec 15, 10:19
- [deleted] 1
  - Good call. -- nm - Christmas VacaShaun Dec 15, 10:12
- I would get that deal. - Let it Spawn, let it Spawn, let it Spawn! Dec 15, 10:04
- I do have a rule that all pizza is quite tasty at 2am. -- nm - Remlik Dec 15, 10:03
- Hey, don't blame other people for your low standards - Roger More Dec 15, 10:00
This is how we do it -- nm - adventy97 Dec 15, 09:58 3
- Do you like guacamole? -- nm - Christmas VacaShaun Dec 15, 10:03
- But what is *why* we do it? -- nm - ding dong mara-ly on high Dec 15, 10:02 1
  - Try Bud Dry, mara. -- nm - adventy97 Dec 15, 10:04
