Tracy McGrady to the Knicks in 3 team NBA trade -- (link) - Beaker Feb 18, 11:21 8

  - Save a ton of money but I'm surprised they got so little for Martin - Will Hunting Feb 18, 11:26 2
    - Exactly, from what I see there, they look like clear losers in this deal. Houston gets a cherry deal, imo. - musubi Feb 18, 11:27
    - yup, Rockets get the best player and a couple #1's from the Knicks. -- nm - Beaker Feb 18, 11:26

  - how many people walked up and asked for ice cream? nm -- nm - groiny Feb 18, 11:25
  - there's your solution. dunk the pants in ketchup. -- nm - Reagen Feb 18, 11:23
  - I suspect that you're joking. Am I correct? :) -- nm - Beryllium Feb 18, 11:23 2
    - You have the right answer! I was going for a "I'm [sitting] on my lunch" thing there. -- nm - Dr.Vermin Feb 18, 11:24 1
      - Sheesh. Totally missed it. Pretty funny now it's been explained to me. -- nm - mara Feb 18, 11:25
  - Dude, you do not eat mustard or ketchup while wearing white pants. -- nm - loosilu Feb 18, 11:22
  - Tide Stick - Epiphany Feb 18, 11:21
  - they're white, right? bleach 'em. -- nm - Andie Feb 18, 11:21

Poll: What's the capital of South Dakota? -- nm - Reagen Feb 18, 11:16 17
- No right answer -- nm - Guigue Feb 18, 11:20
- cool trivia bout this state capital. none of the letters in the name match any letters in the state's name. It's the only state that fits the category -- nm - CQ Feb 18, 11:19

ST Poll: (No right answer) Does anyone have a tally of the number of members of the ST Tribe? - OAE Feb 18, 11:12 47
- um, 312.50...nm - x Feb 18, 11:15
- bery posted it a while back. search isn't working right now. I'd search upon "individual" with his username, to start. -- nm - b. Feb 18, 11:14
- That's not really a poll is it? (nm) - musubi Feb 18, 11:13 35
  - "does anyone" is the question. so that's the poll? I would guess no, and exact number is not known. -- nm - amanda Feb 18, 11:14
  - What would you call it? -- nm - OAE Feb 18, 11:14 3
    - I think you mean: "Poll: What would you call it?" ;) -- nm - Guigue Feb 18, 11:15 1
      - Brilliant! -- nm - OAE Feb 18, 11:16
    - Um, a question? A request for information> -- nm - mara Feb 18, 11:15
  - and there *is* a right answer! -- nm - loosilu Feb 18, 11:13 29
    - but accounts made isn't the same as members -- nm - zork Feb 18, 11:14 28
      - Just because account number doesn't match the total, doesn't mean there isn't a total. (nm) - musubi Feb 18, 11:18 2
        
        doesn't mean that anyone *has* that total -- nm - zork Feb 18, 11:20 1
        
        If someone doesn't have the total, the correct answer is no. If they do, the answer is yes. So there is a correct answer. (nm) - musubi Feb 18, 11:25
      - doesn't loosi herself have two or three? (I have four.) -- nm - amanda Feb 18, 11:15 24
        
        he doesn't count the ones that aren't used. I have not used my other one since may of last year. -- nm - loosilu Feb 18, 11:16 23
        
        used since when? if I posted with an account last week three times, is that an active account? -- nm - amanda Feb 18, 11:17 22
        
        Whenever he decides the cutoff is. I think he used one month last time. -- nm - loosilu Feb 18, 11:18 10
        
        and the multiple accounts thing? he just picks which accounts are multiple willy nilly? - amanda Feb 18, 11:20 9
        
        I can't say I give a crap. -- nm - loosilu Feb 18, 11:21
        
        I used unique active accounts, where an active account was "more than 30 posts in timeframe X", if I recall correctly. The number came out over 100. -- nm - Beryllium Feb 18, 11:21 7
        
        We should have a rite of passage, that way we'd know who's part of the tribe - Guigue Feb 18, 11:23 5
        
        Being banned from ST b/c you pissed someone off. -- nm - OAE Feb 18, 11:25 3
        
        So to get in the tribe you have to get kicked out of the tribe? That's a strange idea - Guigue Feb 18, 11:26 1
        
        No, no. Getting kicked out is the ritual. Not leaving is the badge of a true ST'er. -- nm - OAE Feb 18, 11:32
        
        Ironically, that would never be a banning offense here. Hell, it's practically a requirement. -- nm - mara Feb 18, 11:26
        
        Ooo, like a walkabout, or a peyote trip. -- nm - mara Feb 18, 11:24
        
        (It consistently came out to being over 100, even when I messed with the parameters) -- nm - Beryllium Feb 18, 11:22
        
        Honest question: Why do you have more than 1 account? -- nm - Guigue Feb 18, 11:18 10
        
        there's no rule against it. Some people have registered joke accounts (... those jokes usually wear thin after a week or so :) ) -- nm - Beryllium Feb 18, 11:20 5
        
        I might get a second account to reset my stats. -- nm - amanda Feb 18, 11:22 1
        
        Maybe Bery should have a YTD chart -- nm - Roger More Feb 18, 11:23
        
        FU - Boitch Feb 18, 11:22
        
        Heh. I don't think I registered my favorite joke account here. I might. -- nm - mara Feb 18, 11:21 1
        
        So we'll be getting some fraskal posts then? -- nm - Roger More Feb 18, 11:24
        
        it allows me to be super super bitchy without further damaging my own reputation. - amanda Feb 18, 11:19 3
        
        why worry about it now? - Boitch Feb 18, 11:23
        
        although the "superbitch" nick wasn't too hard to figure out -- nm - poochinski Feb 18, 11:22 1
        
        yeah, I might get a new account there too. -- nm - amanda Feb 18, 11:23
- bery does. -- nm - loosilu Feb 18, 11:13 8
  - false. how many usernames do you have? how many do I have? how many people registered and quit? what is an "active member"? what is "tribe"? - amanda Feb 18, 11:15 7
    - Bery made a few posts a while back about how many unique posters there were each month, etc. It should be a good enough proxy -- nm - Roger More Feb 18, 11:17
    - I have one account. I can't get into my other account. -- nm - loosilu Feb 18, 11:17
    - Tribe is the key here -- we're all gathered around this virtual water cooler... - OAE Feb 18, 11:17 3
      - how often? for how long? how many posts per week is a member? is there an LDP drop? is that a week? a month? -- nm - amanda Feb 18, 11:18 2
        
        Oh, and I hereby declare "No right answer!" to be the next ST meme. -- nm - mara Feb 18, 11:19 1
        
        Look up, it's already started! -- nm - Guigue Feb 18, 11:21
    - The whole thing is just one big semantic trap, really. However, when I'm describing my online community to people, I say "roughly 100 people" just to - mara Feb 18, 11:16
Diva, pixie - Trish had something hilarious to say about Shawn White last night - crash davis Feb 18, 11:11 3
- *laughing* - He's such a Breck Girl. -- nm - Diva Feb 18, 11:21 1
  - Excellent name for him. -- nm - mara Feb 18, 11:22
- ha! -- nm - b. Feb 18, 11:12
Something I'd like these idiots to realize is what "no taxation without representation" means - Reagen Feb 18, 11:11 3
- and why are these wack jobs always engineers? - zork Feb 18, 11:12 2
  - oh believe me, I have no illusions about how off a lot of engineers are - Reagen Feb 18, 11:14 1
    - yep. and unlike architecture, there always is an answer that, if not 100% correct, at least is correct enough to be the right answer. -- nm - zork Feb 18, 11:17

  - I think it's more of a target because Johnny Weir wore real fur trim on a costume a while ago -- nm - zork Feb 18, 11:09 3
    - oh this isn't recent. this is since it got announced, basically. -- nm - Andie Feb 18, 11:10 2
      - was she part of the Bread Not Circuses group when T.O. was bidding? -- nm - zork Feb 18, 11:12 1

I wonder if the note the guy who flew the plane into the building will be printed in the national papers. -- nm - Loyola Feb 18, 11:04 17
- CNN already read sections of it on air -- nm - zork Feb 18, 11:07 14
  - I would have thought the government would have tried to stop it getting publicised. -- nm - Loyola Feb 18, 11:10 13
    - Why would they and why would you think they would try? -- nm - Will Hunting Feb 18, 11:16 3
      - I would have thought with the times that are in it, one man being driven to such extremes by his perceived unfair treatment from the IRS/government, - Loyola Feb 18, 11:20 2
        
        Counter-productive as it would just feed the paranoia that helps drive these mentally unhinged people. -- nm - Will Hunting Feb 18, 11:22 1
        
        yup. -- nm - znufrii Feb 18, 11:23
    - probably the worst thing they could've done in this situation, really. - znufrii Feb 18, 11:14 4
      - I don't know why he didn't fly into it at night to avoid any other casualties. -- nm - Loyola Feb 18, 11:17 3
        
        Cause vengeful people wanting to make statements don't try not to harm the objects of their hatred. -- nm - Will Hunting Feb 18, 11:20

        It's not, but you're still pretty sharp. -- nm - Loyola Feb 18, 11:22

Here's a post-Humpday question. - Mop (227 lbs) Feb 18, 11:04 20
- define "emotionally involved" -- nm - znufrii Feb 18, 11:15 2
  - Discovery of an instant message/e-mail saying "I miss you." Admission of "I loved her, but it's over now." -- nm - Mop (227 lbs) Feb 18, 11:19 1
    - no better or worse, really. they're both a violation of trust if done in absense of their partner's knowledge and consent. -- nm - znufrii Feb 18, 11:25
- [deleted] 1
  - again, we so slay at relationship advice. -- nm - amanda Feb 18, 11:16
- I think the broken trust of either act is more concerning the comparing the degree of wrong of either. (nm) - musubi Feb 18, 11:11 4
  - What are you hiding? -- nm - Mop (227 lbs) Feb 18, 11:19
  - You goddamn weasel. Answer the question! - Dr.Vermin Feb 18, 11:13 2
    - If you can't evade a question well, you're not much of a man, little miss white-pants. (nm) - musubi Feb 18, 11:15 1
      - a) his wife likes them b) no one else is going to see him to ridicule him -he's in Alaska for god's sake - Epiphany Feb 18, 11:20

- emotional is worse -- nm - Andie Feb 18, 11:09
- I would prefer she get drunk and let some stranger nail her than develop feelings for some local guy... - Dr.Vermin Feb 18, 11:08 1
  - yeah cause someone is going to miss ole Bob - Epiphany Feb 18, 11:17
