I'm thinking of going watching Avatar tomorrow in 3D, but I don't know if the local cinema has the real 3D or the poorer version 3D; - Loyola Dec 26, 11:56 4
- the only distinction between 3D is the "regular" Real 3D and IMAX 3D - mr. squiggles Dec 26, 11:58 1
  - Ok sound, thanks. -- nm - Loyola Dec 26, 11:59

Not to take away from the ongoing discussion, but I, too, offer immense congratulations to Kelly/Will and kare/what's-his-name. - ReluctantCynic Dec 26, 11:51 4

- it looks like What Dreams May Come -- nm - Guy Dec 26, 11:44
I don't even feel like going out tonight but kind of have to; it's the third biggest party night of the year. -- nm - Loyola Dec 26, 11:33 11
- I'm kind of jazzed for tonight. I'm going to a crap roadside bar in a crap town a few miles away. we're hiding from town. it's going to be awesome. -- nm - amanda Dec 26, 11:35 1
  - I just feel heavy after the dinner. I'll let it settle for an hour before I make a stir. -- nm - Loyola Dec 26, 11:36
- Really? The day/night after Christmas has always been a night to relax and recover and stay home and watch movies for us. -- nm - Stephen Dec 26, 11:34 8
  - Ben Gay called and he really wants to meet your sore joints and muscles. Also wants to watch the Murder She Wrote holiday marathon with you. - Red Nosed Reindeer Poop Dec 26, 11:52 1
    - Ben gay does nothing for my sore joints and muscles, and we're watching the NCIS marathon on USA mister! -- nm - Stephen Dec 26, 11:57
  - But... the sales! :) -- nm - con_carne Dec 26, 11:50
  - Even I'm not this old ... . -- nm - ReluctantCynic Dec 26, 11:49
  - Maybe when I'm older dude ;) -- nm - Loyola Dec 26, 11:35 3
    - Low blow dude! - Stephen Dec 26, 11:38 1
      - :) Oof, yeah that would be tiring. -- nm - Loyola Dec 26, 11:41
    - that's what I'm talking about -- nm - Hotkiss Dec 26, 11:35

maybe I just can't get past amber's hair. -- nm - amanda Dec 26, 11:23 1
- oh she's a mess - mr. squiggles Dec 26, 11:27
on one hand. it seems crazy not to start Michael Bush against CLE with Fargas hurt - Guy Dec 26, 11:22
Say your SO doesn't want you to smoke, but he's on vacay and you want to spend a few days with a friend and smoking (possibly quite a bit) is likely. - Hotkiss Dec 26, 11:15 103
- BTW, Hotkiss, don't you now need to consider the option of fedup telling on you if you do do it. :/ -- nm - James Bond (aka Igor) Dec 26, 11:30 2
  - not with our ST contracted terms -- nm - Hotkiss Dec 26, 11:37 1
    - I know its none of our business, but I'd be lying if I said I wasn't curious to know what they are. -- nm - Name Withheld By Request Dec 26, 11:58
- if smoking (or whatever the thing really is) is a dealbreaker for him, it doesn't seem like you're really getting over by doing it when he's not aroun - mr. squiggles Dec 26, 11:25
- Isn't this the guy you like? -- nm - amoxy Dec 26, 11:24
- I don't date dudes who make me ask permission to do things to my own body. it's like, mine. -- nm - amanda Dec 26, 11:22 8
  - ding. if he wants a non-smoker, he should find someone else. - kare Dec 26, 11:42 5
    - she just got engaged. you should listen to her -- nm - mr. squiggles Dec 26, 11:43 4
      - ha. - kare Dec 26, 11:46
      - She doesn't eat meat -10 logic points :) -- nm - Red Nosed Reindeer Poop Dec 26, 11:44 2
        
        anyone who would pass on kare b/c of that has gone full retard - mr. squiggles Dec 26, 11:47 1
        
        >:| - kare Dec 26, 11:48
  - this is more or less my thoughts on the matter. - Guy Dec 26, 11:24 1
    - but controlling dudes are hot! -- nm - amanda Dec 26, 11:26
- tell him they're your lungs and to keep out of it -- nm - dogbert Dec 26, 11:22 46
  - Even though after reading below it's not about smoking. Smoking ruining a chicks lungs is her business. - Red Nosed Reindeer Poop Dec 26, 11:25 45
    - that's what vegetarians think of your bacon breath -- nm - dogbert Dec 26, 11:28 42
      - I don't date women who don't eat meat either. ;) -- nm - Red Nosed Reindeer Poop Dec 26, 11:29 41
        
        One nice secret about vegan chicks, they keep their figures, its like hard to get fat if you don't eat it -- nm - zeitgeist Dec 26, 11:48 3
        
        oh, that is actually very not true. there are lots of lazyish vegans who have portion control issues. - kare Dec 26, 11:50 2
        
        well TIP: Olive Oil is not a substitute for a glass of milk (and YES I've seen it) -- nm - zeitgeist Dec 26, 11:52 1
        
        *gag* -- nm - kare Dec 26, 11:53
        
        I was really into a vegan for a long time but ultimately I couldn't make peace with it. -- nm - Hotkiss Dec 26, 11:41 36
        
        my gf is vegan and ive come to love some of the vegan restaurants in town - Guy Dec 26, 11:44 21
        
        But how am I supposed to cook for him with such limited ingredient selections? Total value mismatch. -- nm - Hotkiss Dec 26, 11:46 20
        
        oh please, there are so many vegan cooking books and easy substitutions -- nm - Guy Dec 26, 11:53 4
        
        NO SUBSTITUTIONS! -- nm - dogbert Dec 26, 11:55
        
        You've been converted. Your opinion doesn't count anymore. As I typed this I was eating some bacon. -- nm - Red Nosed Reindeer Poop Dec 26, 11:54 2
        
        i was reluctant at first, but its surprising how good fake meat can be if made properly - Guy Dec 26, 11:57 1
        
        DTM -- nm - Red Nosed Reindeer Poop Dec 26, 11:57
        
        i don't think it's as limited as you think. but you might have to work and be more creative than otherwise -- nm - mr. squiggles Dec 26, 11:50 10
        
        I told the vegan that I thought veganism was a hassle and that was a huge turn off for me. After that our relationship winded down. -- nm - Hotkiss Dec 26, 11:51 9
        
        it would be hard for me to think of anything that would be a "hassle" for the right girl -- nm - mr. squiggles Dec 26, 11:54
        
        That'll do it. Couples are supposed to do stuff together, and diet is a biggie. -- nm - con_carne Dec 26, 11:52 7
        
        totally. i once dumped a dude because he didn't like broccoli. -- nm - kare Dec 26, 11:55 6
        
        that is why you preemptivly dumped me? - dogbert Dec 26, 11:56 2
        
        no - kare Dec 26, 11:58 1
        
        oh that's good. you should be a professional break-up consultant. everyone would leave happy - dogbert Dec 26, 12:05
        
        And look how you ended up! :) -- nm - Hotkiss Dec 26, 11:55 2
        
        i was kidding. :) but you know, to each their own. - kare Dec 26, 12:00
        
        engaged to a dude who likes broccoli! -- nm - mr. squiggles Dec 26, 11:56
        
        Small main dish, large side dish, I mean its not like you're german where they put bacon into the beans, the taters, almost EVERYTHING -- nm - zeitgeist Dec 26, 11:49
        
        You're not. -- nm - mara Dec 26, 11:49
        
        You cook?!?! Hotness +++ -- nm - James Bond (aka Igor) Dec 26, 11:48 1
        
        I just want to do nice things for my guys but allow me the option of working off a full palate! -- nm - Hotkiss Dec 26, 11:52
        
        mega, mega eyeroll - kare Dec 26, 11:43 13
        
        sorry. personalizing. it annoys me when dudes think the fact that i'm a veggie is a negative. it's just the food i decide to put (or not put) - kare Dec 26, 11:44 11
        
        agreed. unless they are trying to change my diet, I couldn't care less -- nm - dogbert Dec 26, 11:52 7
        
        I don't try to change them. I just walk away. -- nm - Hotkiss Dec 26, 11:53 6
        
        wouldn't it follow that you should then walk away from people who try to change you? - kare Dec 26, 11:53 5
        
        doesn't what's wanting change matter? i.e., is it something that's really bad for someone vs. just different tastes or personality stuff? -- nm - b!, merry and bright. Dec 26, 12:00
        
        *golf clap* - dogbert Dec 26, 11:57
        
        She would have to walk away from ST -- nm - Red Nosed Reindeer Poop Dec 26, 11:56
        
        You're getting dangerously close to figuring out my new years resolution -- nm - Hotkiss Dec 26, 11:54 1
        
        good for you. - kare Dec 26, 11:56
        
        But how are they supposed to cook for you?!?!? Be reasonable!! -- nm - mara Dec 26, 11:49 1
        
        *swoons* - dogbert Dec 26, 11:50
        
        FLT! - Guy Dec 26, 11:45
        
        *sings this to Born Slippy* - mr. squiggles Dec 26, 11:44
    - Word. -- nm - James Bond (aka Igor) Dec 26, 11:28
    - My first boyfriend was a smoker. After him, I swore never again, blech. -- nm - Hotkiss Dec 26, 11:27
- He will know. Smoking gets on clothes. And furniture if you smoke in his house. -- nm - con_carne Dec 26, 11:19 1
  - It doesn't seem that she will be smoking in his house. But if you are in his house, definitely don't smoke. -- nm - James Bond (aka Igor) Dec 26, 11:21
- The point isn't whether he wants you to or not. The point is what you've told him you would or wouldn't do. If you've told him you won't smoke, maybe - mara Dec 26, 11:19
- Smoking is NASTY! - Red Nosed Reindeer Poop Dec 26, 11:18 38
  - Seriously, I will have to rethink your hotness, Hotkiss. :P -- nm - James Bond (aka Igor) Dec 26, 11:20 37
    - But not her coolness!! -- nm - mara Dec 26, 11:20
    - The guilty action in question isn't actually smoking but it's the most similar vice I could think of. Does that change things? - Hotkiss Dec 26, 11:20 35
      - (Read: screwing) -- nm - Reagen Dec 26, 11:22 26
        
        That's what I read haha. So.. a better game now. What is this vice hotkiss is talking about that is like smoking but isn't. -- nm - James Bond (aka Igor) Dec 26, 11:23 25
        
        probably drinking -- nm - Guy Dec 26, 11:24 5
        
        she didn't think the chance to do it would come up. not drinking. -- nm - amanda Dec 26, 11:33 4
        
        my first thought was weed (even before cigarettes), but - Guy Dec 26, 11:36 3
        
        maybe it's like "tequila." because any guy who doesn't encourage me not to drink tequila is dumb. - amanda Dec 26, 11:39
        
        I think whatever it is, tobacco was not an apt analogy. do we know it's vicey? it could be like, painting. or singing karaoke. -- nm - amanda Dec 26, 11:38 1
        
        masturbation -- nm - Guy Dec 26, 11:41
        
        some drug. I say acid. -- nm - amanda Dec 26, 11:24 18
        
        E -- nm - Loyola Dec 26, 11:24 17
        
        No it's coke. -- nm - Loyola Dec 26, 11:25 16
        
        this was my first thought. but then I considered her possible bankroll. acid's way less costly. - amanda Dec 26, 11:28 12
        
        best bang for your drug buck! -- nm - mr. squiggles Dec 26, 11:29 8
        
        I actually did this math quickly in my head. it's true. figure an eight hour experience for what, six dollars? my god, it's cheaper than the movies. -- nm - amanda Dec 26, 11:31 7
        
        plus the flashbacks years later - mr. squiggles Dec 26, 11:32 1 1
        
        it's a "dividend." -- nm - amanda Dec 26, 11:34
        
        Mushrooms are free -- nm - Red Nosed Reindeer Poop Dec 26, 11:31 4
        
        yeah I don't know where *you* live. -- nm - amanda Dec 26, 11:33
        
        not really - Guy Dec 26, 11:33 2
        
        They are free in Oregon -- nm - Red Nosed Reindeer Poop Dec 26, 11:41
        
        But make sure not to eat the ones with black dots on them because then things get *really* crazy -- (link) - Hotkiss Dec 26, 11:33
        
        Psh not coke. I'm not into dying early. -- nm - Hotkiss Dec 26, 11:28 2
        
        You're doing coke. You can't fool us. -- nm - Loyola Dec 26, 11:33 1
        
        she didn't deny it was acid. she denied it was coke. I'm just saying. -- nm - amanda Dec 26, 11:35
        
        She was just in college, weed. -- nm - Red Nosed Reindeer Poop Dec 26, 11:26 2
        
        All the cool kids are doing coke. -- nm - Loyola Dec 26, 11:27 1
        
        I actually spend my weekends in a college town where coke almost doesn't exist. that's another reason I dismissed it. - amanda Dec 26, 11:30
      - You chew tobacco? Gross!! -- nm - Red Nosed Reindeer Poop Dec 26, 11:21
      - Okay.. then you are still hot in my book. :) -- nm - James Bond (aka Igor) Dec 26, 11:21
      - No, it still depends on what you've told him. -- nm - mara Dec 26, 11:20 5
        
        I didn't think the chance was going to come up to do this, but since it did... -- nm - Hotkiss Dec 26, 11:21 4
        
        this is sounding a little too father/daughter to me. find a partner. -- nm - kare Dec 26, 12:04
        
        So you promised not to do something because you didn't think you'd have the chance to do it anyway? -- nm - mara Dec 26, 11:24 2
        
        yea, if you told the guy you wouldn't do something, then the "something" you want to do isn't the issue, it's about if you can be trusted to honor - dogbert Dec 26, 11:31
        
        I am with you on this one mara. It's grow up time. -- nm - Red Nosed Reindeer Poop Dec 26, 11:28
congrats Kare -- nm - peglegpete Dec 26, 11:09 13
