boston.com Love Letters Response to: Confused in Somerville - Diva Mar 11, 09:32 6
- I'm missing something. How was the dude leading her on? - musubi Mar 11, 09:36 2
  - [deleted] 1
    - ditto -- nm - Beaker Mar 11, 09:38
- I misread that as "Confused in Smallville" at first ... and now that I think about it, maybe it works. - Beryllium Mar 11, 09:33
- don't care - I want the response to Krazy in Kansas City -- nm - crash davis Mar 11, 09:33 1
  - I know! crazy chick makes everyone else look boring! -- nm - Diva Mar 11, 09:34
ST Poll: Is today the day that tRU should finally respond to crazy chick and just light her up? - Jim Mar 11, 09:31 26
- The content she's providing sans contact is pretty solid. Might not want to kill the golden goose. -- nm - Dr.Vermin Mar 11, 09:34 1
  - Well...if the object is continued crazy...he could send back, "I'm so sorry to hear you found someone new. I guess it's time for me to move on..." -- nm - Jim Mar 11, 09:36
- As amusing as this is for us. I really do think that tru needs to cut all contact. It's all fun and games till tRU finds his pet rabbit in a stew. - musubi Mar 11, 09:33 19
  - i havent contacted her in like a month. - tRuMaN Mar 11, 09:34 11
    - I know...that's why this unsolicited contact from her would be enough to send me over the edge... - Jim Mar 11, 09:35 10
      - if she really is as psycho has some think - tRuMaN Mar 11, 09:36 5
        
        You've got a nice manageable situation here where she sends you a crazy email from time to time. Why would you want it to change from that? -- nm - Reagen Mar 11, 09:39
        
        I would expect it to make her go incendiary. Taking hints is not where she's a viking, no reason to expect direct language to work. -- nm - Beryllium Mar 11, 09:37
        
        Let the crazy sleep. -- nm - Will Hunting Mar 11, 09:37 2
        
        There are a *lot* better things to do with the crazy, especially in the place of sleep. -- nm - Spawn Mar 11, 09:38 1
        
        I'm assuming this one doesn't have the sex talents of Jolie (pick one) to make up for the risks. -- nm - Will Hunting Mar 11, 09:42
      - whoa whoa whoa, has she done anything to deserve the "b" word? - Beryllium Mar 11, 09:36 3
        
        Telling him to seek help? -- nm - Spawn Mar 11, 09:37
        
        Actually...yes she did. The suggestion of professional help for his personality disorders... - Jim Mar 11, 09:37 1
        
        oh! good call. I hadn't thought of it that way. -- nm - Beryllium Mar 11, 09:38
  - pssst...tRU doesn't have a pet rabbit. :) -- nm - Jim Mar 11, 09:33 6
    - not anymore -- nm - dogbert Mar 11, 09:38
    - but musubi has a metaphor -- nm - crash davis Mar 11, 09:34 2
      - What do you even feed one of those? -- nm - Spawn Mar 11, 09:36 1
        
        honey nut homonyms -- nm - crash davis Mar 11, 09:39
    - i do have a cat though... -- nm - tRuMaN Mar 11, 09:34
    - Yet. -- nm - Will Hunting Mar 11, 09:34
- Indubitably. -- nm - Spawn Mar 11, 09:32
- I vote no. - Beryllium Mar 11, 09:32 2
  - wait ... what did I miss for the Truman show? did he have the date? -- nm - JenBro Mar 11, 09:33 1
    - In her mind or reality? -- nm - Spawn Mar 11, 09:34
311 Day always provides. The Wii has arrived. -- nm - TFox Mar 11, 09:30 2
- Are you doing the online web show thing? -- nm - JaxSean Mar 11, 09:31 1
  - Not tonight. Tonight is date night, which was a Christmas present from my brother. I'll be ordering it on demand this weekend. - TFox Mar 11, 09:33
[deleted] 6
- yikes ... sounds like it's time to call a reputable temp agency - you could probably type it faster yourself -- nm - JenBro Mar 11, 09:32
- by screwing everything up, eventually you (or anyone else) will stop going to her to get things done, and she will be free from working -- nm - dogbert Mar 11, 09:31
- SHUT YOUR FACE!!! -- nm - crazy chick Mar 11, 09:29 3
  - [deleted] 2
    - I'm that way about a lot of things ... but not things that I have control over. - Beryllium Mar 11, 09:31
    - you're confusing "worry" with thoroughness - znufrii Mar 11, 09:31
Weekend: installing 420 sq.ft. of hardwood laminate. - Dr.Vermin Mar 11, 09:26 9
- really? wow ... be sure to post how it goes - i'd consider this! -- nm - JenBro Mar 11, 09:34
- aren't you supposed to put down a layer of some sort to prevent squeaking or something? :) -- nm - Beryllium Mar 11, 09:28 4
  - It's got some padding already affixed to the bottom of each 'plank'. -- nm - Dr.Vermin Mar 11, 09:29 3
    - just a sorta note, even though many of them say they dont require glue - tRuMaN Mar 11, 09:31 1
      - It has some adhesive already along the edges. Though maybe I'll add some more... at least in the kitchen. -- nm - Dr.Vermin Mar 11, 09:33
    - nice. -- nm - Beryllium Mar 11, 09:30
- Have fun with the corners! - JaxSean Mar 11, 09:28 1
  - I found some equipment at Lowe's... pullbar, tapping block, spacers, etc. - Dr.Vermin Mar 11, 09:31
- I loved ripping up the linoleum in my house - Will Hunting Mar 11, 09:28
oh crap, the treadmill is here. my list of excuses is almost gone -- nm - dogbert Mar 11, 09:23 2
- Expensive clothes rack you have there. -- nm - Spawn Mar 11, 09:24 1
  - I can't trust my t-shirts on just any kind of clothes rack, only the best -- nm - dogbert Mar 11, 09:26
Fun with small sample sizes: Mets prospect, Chris Carter, has a spring training slash line of .625 / .667 / 1.875 - musubi Mar 11, 09:21 1
- [deleted]
a couple of screenshots from the new Civilizations game -- (link) - tRuMaN Mar 11, 09:17 2
- ugh. blocked as well. WANT!!! - znufrii Mar 11, 09:19 1
  - they are making archers actual be an artillery unit as well (or in that category) - tRuMaN Mar 11, 09:23
I honestly think some of you may be too interested in this, but crazy chick update - tRuMaN Mar 11, 09:13 58 1
- That... is... spectac... wait for it... ULAR! - Ender Mar 11, 09:39
- what if she's completely sane and you have a split personality? one of your other (unknown to you) personas may have been stringing her along - dogbert Mar 11, 09:36 6
  - The first rule of Tru Club is you don't talk about Tru Club. -- nm - Ender Mar 11, 09:43
  - I smell an indie movie script in that idea -- nm - crash davis Mar 11, 09:37
  - heh. - tRuMaN Mar 11, 09:37
  - with all the travel he does for work, this could totally be it. - Beryllium Mar 11, 09:37 2
    - It's confusing enough being a cast member in the online tRUMAN show, I don't think I could handle having to deal with multiple of him -- nm - oblique Mar 11, 09:37 1
      - i tried that gimmick before, it was hard enough keeping imaginery conversations with myself straight when writing them down for an hsj column. -- nm - tRuMaN Mar 11, 09:38
- It's impossible to be *too* interested in this woman. She's like a gift from heaven. You don't know how lucky you are. -- nm - TFox Mar 11, 09:26
- All that from a 10-minute convo outside of Subway. I wonder what she would have done had you talked to her outside of Sizzler? -- nm - Diva Mar 11, 09:26 7
  - Imagine if he'd bought her a cup of coffee? -- nm - Mel Profit Mar 11, 09:29 6
    - She woulda spent 12 pages of email talking about the symbolism of how buying a person a coffee means they're just not interested - Will Hunting Mar 11, 09:33
    - she would probably still have the cup and made an egagement ring from a portion of the lid. -- nm - tRuMaN Mar 11, 09:29 1
      - And bought 3 smaller coffees to be its babies... -- nm - Ender Mar 11, 09:42
    - She would have instantly poured it on her crotch, screamed in pain, and then waited to feel pregnant. -- nm - TFox Mar 11, 09:29 2
      - L4! - Diva Mar 11, 09:34
      - that's hilarious. -- nm - Mel Profit Mar 11, 09:31
- totally evil and will not happen thought. - tRuMaN Mar 11, 09:26
- Glenn Close is jealous of the crazy this woman can bring. -- nm - Reagen Mar 11, 09:26 1
  - Joan Crawford is taken aback by it. :) -- nm - Beryllium Mar 11, 09:27
- That's absolutely spectacular. She's honestly like a Kristen Wiig SNL character. -- nm - pmb Mar 11, 09:25 3
  - "OMG, I'm just too frickin excited!" -- nm - CrankYanker Mar 11, 09:28

  - right now, 1, another just had her baby in december. - tRuMaN Mar 11, 09:24 2
    - Well, I hope they understand that you're "complex" by crazy chick standards. heh -- nm - JaxSean Mar 11, 09:27 1
      - heh. -- nm - tRuMaN Mar 11, 09:33
- thats pritty good advise now what stupid phone number is that again??????? -- nm - Danedukenuuk Mar 11, 09:22
- She's going to make some lucky shrink fantasticly friggin rich. -- nm - Will Hunting Mar 11, 09:21
- "fling"? Just to clarify, you never actually touched this woman, correct? -- nm - Dr.Vermin Mar 11, 09:21 1
  - correct. -- nm - tRuMaN Mar 11, 09:25
- she's just vaulted into the top 3 of my Favorite ST/TT Characters. -- nm - Mel Profit Mar 11, 09:20 1
  - word -- nm - Beaker Mar 11, 09:40
- She jumps the shark an an hourly basis. -- nm - Spawn Mar 11, 09:18 6
  - I don't know if "Jump the Shark" means what you think it means ... -- nm - Beryllium Mar 11, 09:19 5
    - Actually, it does. - Spawn Mar 11, 09:20 4
      - It refers to a singular event to which a downward trend in quality of entertainment can be traced. - Beryllium Mar 11, 09:25 3
        
        Ah, for me it is when the line of believability is crossed. -- nm - Spawn Mar 11, 09:28 2
        
        For me it means that when I dream, I dream of actually jumping over a shark. -- nm - TFox Mar 11, 09:28 1
        
        Once again, thank you for your contribution to the conversation, Henry Winkler. -- nm - Beryllium Mar 11, 09:30

- That's fantastic! -- nm - Jim Mar 11, 09:17
- sigh, that should read, just 30 mins ago (not 30 mins later, why cannot I read email dates today). - tRuMaN Mar 11, 09:15 9
  - "goodbye forever" ... "oh, hello again". It's kind of like she breathes drama instead of air. -- nm - Beryllium Mar 11, 09:18 8
    - *laughing* -- nm - Mel Profit Mar 11, 09:21
    - either that or someone is trying to punk me. -- nm - tRuMaN Mar 11, 09:19 6
      - Best $50 I ever spent. -- nm - Will Hunting Mar 11, 09:22
      - lafarrow is good. -- nm - Spawn Mar 11, 09:19 4
        
        yea, didn't he already admit it was him? -- nm - dogbert Mar 11, 09:25 3
        
        according to tru, it wasn't true. -- nm - Diva Mar 11, 09:28 2
        
        well, I can say with certainty that I didnt chat with lafarrow at a subway. - tRuMaN Mar 11, 09:32 1
        
        He's a riddle wrapped in a mystery wrapped in a Thelma sweater. -- nm - Beryllium Mar 11, 09:32

Tru -- Is there a crazy chick update? - Fuzzy Mar 11, 08:55
is there a command for prtscn to only print the screen for one monitor only? -- nm - tRuMaN Mar 11, 08:55 6
- Don't know of one for just one monitor, but Alt-prtscn will do only the selected window, if that helps. -- nm - Ender Mar 11, 08:58
- CTRL+ALT+PrtScn only prints the active window. That's usually what I use. -- nm - JaxSean Mar 11, 08:57 1
  - (just tried that without an active window and it copy/pastes all monitors, though.) -- nm - JaxSean Mar 11, 08:58
- Just paste it into Paint or Paint.NET or any other photo editor and crop out what you don't want -- nm - oblique Mar 11, 08:56 2

I still can't believe an NFL team would gamble their #1 overall pick on an injury-prone QB whose numbers were vastly inflated against div II quality - Don Homer Mar 11, 08:54 1
