and am I allowed to post pictures of my kids on Facebook or will that be seen as crass? -- nm - Beaker Jan 2, 05:17 5
- Wouldn't that be (spoil) - Spawn: *The* Blood Feud Champion Jan 2, 07:23
- everybody I know does it. -- nm - CQ Jan 2, 05:25 3

You know, I really wished everyone was as cool as Trey and Matt and put everything they do on their site. I sure do love SouthPark Studios. -- nm - Qale Jan 1, 23:22 1

Better Off Ted was hillarious tonight. Did anyone notice in the robotics lab in the background (spoils) - JaxSean Jan 1, 23:21
Apparently the user's manual for Super Mario Brothers Wii says to take a 15 minute break every hour. - ty97 Jan 1, 23:13 3
- Personally, with NSMBW, I tend to get stuck after about an hour - taking a break helps me calm down and approach the problem from a fresh perspective. -- nm - Beryllium Jan 2, 01:40
- Apparently, the makers of Super Mario Brothers don't know their own audience. -- nm - ReluctantCynic Jan 1, 23:15 1
  - I figure it's like those warnings on your lawnmower...they're trying to buffer against lawsuits -- nm - ty97 Jan 1, 23:21
Pasadena Hilton was evacuated when an electrical problem filled the upper floors with smoke. Generally wouldn't be a problem, except that Pasadena is - MojaveMeg Jan 1, 23:11

- oh, you're energetic? -- nm - ty97 Jan 1, 23:11
Nikki Finke sez another $24 million Friday for Avatar ($308 million total) -- nm - mr. squiggles Jan 1, 23:02 12
- James Cameron must be STOPPED! -- nm - eag Jan 1, 23:04 11
  - But not before I go see it again. I assume I technically have until the next 3D flick is out right? -- nm - Qale Jan 1, 23:19 10
    - Some friends of ours went to see it (at the liemax 3d) and shows were sold out. - JaxSean Jan 1, 23:59 9
      - $10? hahaha - mr. squiggles Jan 2, 00:06 8
        
        Matinees at the liemax are $9, regular 3D is $8, and regular is $6.50. - JaxSean Jan 2, 00:10 3
        
        *jealous* - I spent $15.75 for IMAX and $12 for Real 3D. -- nm - Diva Jan 2, 05:43
        
        That's an excellent 3D price, even with the liemax. - Jelly Jan 2, 05:11
        
        $8.75 for regular movie matinee at a cinemark/century theater today here. -- nm - b! Jan 2, 00:15
        
        The theatres in Hollywood should be like free. -- nm - Qale Jan 2, 00:09 3
        
        Is lobster in Maine free? -- nm - JaxSean Jan 2, 00:10 2
        
        almost -- nm - psilotum Jan 2, 00:24

I have an unopened can of Cheez Whiz in the fridge. It has a date on it - "06NO01 M1920" - but I have no idea if that's a best before or bottle date. - Beryllium Jan 1, 22:51 24
- best before 6th Nov 3001 -- nm - Danedukenuuk Jan 1, 23:39
- The first problem is that Cheese Whiz unopened shouldn't be in the fridge to begin with. - Qale Jan 1, 23:20 2
  - I like it hard. -- nm - Beryllium Jan 2, 01:06 1
    - that's what my last date said. -- nm - mafic Jan 2, 01:29
- Eat it. You know you want to. -- nm - JaxSean Jan 1, 23:10 5
  - that's also what my last date said. -- nm - mafic Jan 2, 01:30
  - Correct -- nm - con_carne Jan 1, 23:12 2
    - Got a better idea we save it and Bery can bring it to the next vegas trip and next time JaxSean gets dumb drunk again we make him eat it:) -- nm - eag Jan 1, 23:14 1
      - I'm not drinking next trip, so this is incorrect. - JaxSean Jan 1, 23:22
  - I agree with JaxSean. -- nm - ReluctantCynic Jan 1, 23:11
- It could be 3 years old, it could be 8 years old. Either way, it won't be good. - TWuG Jan 1, 22:58 4
  - I suppose you prefer the jarred variety? -- nm - con_carne Jan 1, 23:42 1
    - My bad; I said can, I meant jar. -- nm - Beryllium Jan 2, 01:05
  - I should put it in a time capsule -- nm - Beryllium Jan 1, 22:58
  - heheh -- nm - Beryllium Jan 1, 22:58
- that will still be good long after humans cease walking the earth -- nm - mr. squiggles Jan 1, 22:57 3
  - for various definitions of "good". -- nm - Reagen Jan 1, 23:06
  - ah, so the cockroaches will be able to enjoy ants-on-a-stick ... good for them. - Beryllium Jan 1, 22:58 1
    - Well and we caint underestimate its value during the zombie apocalypse -- nm - eag Jan 1, 23:08
- It was bottled in 1920 and it is good until November 2101. -- nm - ReluctantCynic Jan 1, 22:55 1
  - It's certainly not inconceivable. -- nm - Beryllium Jan 1, 22:57
- Let me rephrase that: I need to *scorched earth* clean my fridge. -- nm - Beryllium Jan 1, 22:55 2
  - now that you are married its time to eat like an adult and not some game playing geek -- nm - zeitgeist Jan 1, 23:14 1
    - the point is that I haven't eaten the cheez whiz. That's why I want to know if it's safe. :) -- nm - Beryllium Jan 2, 01:39
Montreal hall Le Medley closes - lone canadian leafs fan Jan 1, 22:31
Just in case I forget everybody Have a Happy January 2nd :) -- nm - eag Jan 1, 22:24 12
- Admit it, you just wanna kiss more people -- nm - Qale Jan 1, 22:28 7
  - Yes, but don't we all? -- nm - ReluctantCynic Jan 1, 22:49 1
    - Next week, H1N1 makes a resurgance! Hurrah! -- nm - Qale Jan 1, 23:21
  - The next person I kiss - eag Jan 1, 22:30 4
    - do we need to get you standing on the pitcher's mound at a high school baseball game? -- nm - TFox Jan 1, 22:31 3
      - Huh? -- nm - eag Jan 1, 22:34 2
        
        this -- (link) - TFox Jan 1, 22:36 1
        
        Ok let me clarify - eag Jan 1, 22:47

- spoiler !!!!!!! -- nm - lone canadian leafs fan Jan 1, 22:32
Now that I'm getting around to watching The Orphanage, this might make my list of best horror films of the decade too. -- nm - TFox Jan 1, 21:56 7
- Can I see this, or is it violent? Will someone who knows me weigh in please? -- nm - amanda Jan 1, 22:11 4
  - ok, now that its over, here is a complete rundown of included violence (spoils, i guess, not really) - TFox Jan 1, 22:35
  - There is no real violence, it's more psychological. - Trisha Jan 1, 22:28
  - no violence, just a bunch of jump scenes, but it's also so much more than that -- nm - Hotkiss me at midnight Jan 1, 22:22
  - Pretty bloodless thus far, with twenty minutes to go. And I'm not expecting it to get worse. -- nm - TFox Jan 1, 22:12
- It's definitely on mine. The ending is fantastic. -- nm - Hotkiss me at midnight Jan 1, 21:59 1
  - ohhh refresh my mind? spoil - GWAA Jan 1, 22:11
I predict that 2010 will be a very good year for Mr. Squiggles. - ReluctantCynic Jan 1, 21:54 7
- Pixie totally deserves some awesome. (and not to have his "have a great 2010, pixie" thread hijacked.) -- nm - amanda Jan 1, 22:12 1
  - we all do -- nm - mr. squiggles Jan 1, 22:14
- agreed! am hoping it is good for me too. 2009 was a mixed bag of extremes. -- nm - loosilu Jan 1, 21:56 4
  - I'm beginning to fixate on travel...I need a cheaper hobby :) -- nm - MojaveMeg Jan 1, 22:09
  - Seems to me like when you stopped painting, your troubles started up...Take up painting again... - BAD Jan 1, 21:59 2
    - :) interesting point of view. I stopped painting after the troubles started. - loosilu Jan 1, 22:01
    - I agree with BAD. -- nm - ReluctantCynic Jan 1, 22:00
Jim, re: board 2 and "The Ring" - Trisha Jan 1, 21:47 5 1
- *standing O* -- nm - loosilu Jan 1, 22:06
- I am so going to pull this trick on my nieces. -- nm - ReluctantCynic Jan 1, 21:58 3
  - Heh, I had to hear how "mean" I was the whole way home. That just made me laugh harder. -- nm - Trisha Jan 1, 22:02 2
    - "C'mere, nieces pieces, your ol' Uncle Joel wants to show you a really cool movie." -- nm - ReluctantCynic Jan 1, 22:05 1
      - "Not David's Backyard Adventures: XII again!!!" -- nm - Uncle Joel's Nieces Jan 1, 22:10
True Blood season one is better than most people give it credit for. -- nm - ReluctantCynic (via Palm Pre) Jan 1, 21:31 20
- I disagree. It's a bloated and boring whodoneit. -- nm - Qale Jan 1, 21:36 11
  - see also: sherlock holmes. nm - Dignan Jan 1, 21:39 9
    - Again. I disagree. You don't get to play along in the mystery of Holmes so it can't really be a whodoneit. - Qale Jan 1, 21:43 8
      - But it could have been clever and well-crafted. It was not. How can a modern Sherlock holmes tale not be clever??? -- nm - amanda Jan 1, 21:59 7
        
        They should have had Zac Efron as Holmes and Corbin Bleu as Watson. -- nm - Dano Jan 1, 22:02 4
        
        If not even rdj could make me love it, nothing could. Zac might have helped you, but there was no way I'd ever be helped. - amanda Jan 1, 22:09 2
        
        I had blocked it out but remembered after talking to you: country western?? -- nm - Max Jan 1, 22:57 1
        
        (snip this to the score thread below) -- nm - Max Jan 1, 22:57
        
        ah, young watson, just back from afghanistan with a round still in his leg -- nm - Beryllium Jan 1, 22:04
        
        Also I think the minnesota bar should drug test: I saw ml saying the score was great. Dude is clearly high. Completely wrong for the film as presented -- nm - amanda Jan 1, 22:01
        
        I thought the only thing that wasn't clever was (spoiler) - Qale Jan 1, 22:00
  - I gave it up after 6 or 7 episodes. -- nm - Cuzzin Tauld Lang Syne Jan 1, 21:37
- word - Spawn: *The* Blood Feud Champion Jan 1, 21:36
- Do most people like the 2nd season moreso ? -- nm - GWAA Jan 1, 21:35 6
  - I'd think so since it, you know, has more to do with vampires. -- nm - Qale Jan 1, 21:37 5
    - I thought it was about nudity and sex -- nm - GWAA Jan 1, 21:42 4
      - Well it *was* on HBO. -- nm - Qale Jan 1, 21:43 3
        
        your stars made me think for a second it is not on HBO anymore! -- nm - GWAA Jan 1, 21:45 2
        
        Nah, it's still gonna be there when they get back. Though with Minnova down, not sure how I'll watch it. -- nm - Qale Jan 1, 21:50 1
        
        Or wait, apparently Minnova is back? I had thought it killed by the torrent police. -- nm - Qale Jan 1, 21:51
who's the smoking man who hosts Twilight Zone? -- nm - loosilu Jan 1, 21:30 5
- He's also the creator and a writer -- nm - con_carne Jan 1, 23:16
- Rod Serling. You really think he's hot? -- nm - TWuG Jan 1, 21:34 3
  - oh, no wonder he looks familiar. -- nm - loosilu Jan 1, 21:49 2
    - and no, not hot. I mean he smokes a lot. -- nm - loosilu Jan 1, 21:49 1
      - yeah, people did, 2 packs a day was almost average, heavy smokers did 4 which was basically lighting one off the butt of the other all day -- nm - zeitgeist Jan 1, 21:51
mojo, a spoiler question about District 9 - Max Jan 1, 21:29 1
- spoils - Beryllium Jan 1, 21:32
Bench your Saints, if you're still playing. - nubby Jan 1, 21:24
Loosi: you went to Mexico? Where abouts? -- nm - Hotkiss me at midnight Jan 1, 21:13 9

  - I'm going there in 3 weeks. - Hotkiss me at midnight Jan 1, 21:30 6
    - Chichen Itza. - Spawn: *The* Blood Feud Champion Jan 1, 21:39 2
      - Cancun is kinda awful, honestly. -- nm - loosilu Jan 1, 21:48
      - gesundheit -- nm - mr. squiggles Jan 1, 21:39
    - I'm going to give you *one* recommendation. Rio Secreto (an underground river/cave) -- nm - loosilu Jan 1, 21:30 2
      - did you discover it by tour or random exploration on your own? -- nm - Hotkiss me at midnight Jan 1, 21:34 1
        
        sort of a combo of both. internet searching. It's one of the most incredible things I've ever seen in my life. -- nm - loosilu Jan 1, 21:38
- Want to see a couple hundred photos? -- nm - nubby Jan 1, 21:16
*shakes head sadly* -- nm - tRuMaN Jan 1, 21:12
"Why will no one hit each other with a phone?" -- nm - Reagen Jan 1, 21:10 3
- did you notice? (minor BOT spoil) - howie Jan 1, 21:24 1
  - Oh yeah. -- nm - David Jan 1, 21:29
- "Don't fight it." -- nm - David Jan 1, 21:12
*congratulates B2* -- nm - B2 Jan 1, 21:09 2
- *posts 100 photos of b2 with leaves in the background* -- nm - loosilu Jan 1, 21:10 1
