- it's not a dead parrot -- nm - Danedukenuuk Mar 16, 11:02
- If anyone asks if it was you, make sure and tell them you didn't expect the Spanish Inquisition. -- nm - Dr.Vermin is a rooster illusion Mar 16, 11:01
- nobody expects the Spanish Inquisition! -- nm - peglegpete Mar 16, 11:00
- Are you new here? -- nm - Kick Ass Mar 16, 11:00
- oh my. The person who submitted the complaint ... is apparently the person who put the text in in the first place (a year or more ago :) ) -- nm - Beryllium Mar 16, 11:00 1
  - Did someone suggest to them that waiting 14 days to do it might have made more sense? - Subversive Mar 16, 11:01
- You can't possily lead with that and not say which joke it was. (nm) - musubi Mar 16, 11:00 2
  - "what is your quest?" "I am looking for the holy grail" ... - Beryllium Mar 16, 11:04
  - what is the airspeed of a swallow? -- nm - Remlik Mar 16, 11:01
Indianapolis has decided that if you have an extra ticket for the NCAA you want to sell on the street you need to pay a $20 Peddler's fee.... -- (link) - Remlik Mar 16, 10:56 2
- Scalping tickets is one of the lamest things to make iilegal. Seriously. -- nm - Shaun Mar 16, 10:58
- I can't believe they sent Georgetown and UT here. It's like the NCAA hates me. -- nm - TFox Mar 16, 10:57
Community spoils - TFox Mar 16, 10:51 19
- Agreed (spoils) - musubi Mar 16, 10:54 14
  - Have they come out and said (spoils) - Will Hunting Mar 16, 10:56 3
    - I believe they've specifically said Aspergers. ("ass burgers. heheheheh") -- nm - Dr.Vermin is a rooster illusion Mar 16, 10:58 2
      - An aside, did you hear that "Ass burgers" was in the top 10 Google searches after Parenthood premiered? -- nm - Kick Ass Mar 16, 11:00
      - That's it! I kept thinking autistic and knew that wasn't right. -- nm - Will Hunting Mar 16, 10:58
  - Troy is the most underrated part of that show. He is awesome. - TFox Mar 16, 10:56 8
    - "You when a couple has been so long that they finish each other's..." "Pie." - musubi Mar 16, 10:58 1
      - I often have to replay various scenes because sometimes the jokes are so under the breath that I miss them -- nm - oblique Mar 16, 11:01
    - The only part of the show I don't care for much is Chevy. - Will Hunting Mar 16, 10:57 5
      - He has his moments -- nm - oblique Mar 16, 11:00
      - Depends on the episode. He's like the villian. I think he's a necessary part of the team, but can't shoulder an episode. - TFox Mar 16, 11:00 3
        
        He has a few lines like Creed from Office; but I never thought I'd see a show were Chevy Chase is a role player that just doesn't seem to fit. -- nm - Will Hunting Mar 16, 11:01 1
        
        Creed is a good comparison. A more heavily utilized Creed. -- nm - TFox Mar 16, 11:02
        
        I agree with this. He works as a tertiary character that comes to the foreground sporadically. (nm) - musubi Mar 16, 11:01
  - The whole show kills. It's the first thing we watch from the PVR each week. -- nm - Subversive Mar 16, 10:56
- I loved that scene. - Will Hunting Mar 16, 10:54
- "10% Dick Van Dyke, 20% Sam Marlowe, 40% Zach Braff from "Scrubs" and 30% Hilary Swank from "Boys Don't Cry." - Reagen Mar 16, 10:53 2
  - "Sorry." -- nm - TFox Mar 16, 10:53 1
    - *sobs* "I just don't get the apeal of 'Glee'. I just don't get it." (nm) - musubi Mar 16, 10:55
Mass Effect body paint girl. -- (link) - Mop (222 lbs) Mar 16, 10:49 11
- i don't know what mass efeect is but she's pretty hot -- nm - CQ Mar 16, 10:54
- NSFW I assume. -- nm - Shaun Mar 16, 10:54 6
  - Depends on how your work place defines full body paint. -- nm - Kick Ass Mar 16, 10:56 5
    - *copies link to email to look at later* Spoil me on the image. -- nm - Shaun Mar 16, 10:57 4
      - [deleted]
      - It's a girl. In Mass Effect themed body paint. -- nm - Mop (222 lbs) Mar 16, 10:58 2
        
        I like it already. -- nm - Shaun Mar 16, 10:59

- man, those aren't 96 Accords - fairway frank Mar 16, 10:49
- *yawn* -- nm - Toyota Mar 16, 10:49 1
  - Technically, this would excite Toyota. -- nm - Kick Ass Mar 16, 10:49
you'd think that Celebrity Cruises would have thoroughly sanitized their Mercury after the first norovirus outbreak; but no? - b. Mar 16, 10:46 7
- all I know is they had purell sanitizing machines everywhere on my Celebrity cruise - CQ Mar 16, 10:53 3
  - that's good; but that doesn't cover all of the shared surfaces. - b. Mar 16, 11:00 1
    - yeah, I think this was an attempt to make most people feel safer -- nm - CQ Mar 16, 11:01
  - A Celebrity Cruise is the only time I ever "slipped a guy a $20", and I did it like a pro. - Mop (222 lbs) Mar 16, 10:56
- sounds like they did clean it. -- nm - loosilu Mar 16, 10:48 2
  - they took some measures, but not the same kind of enhanced cleaning as they're doing now. -- nm - b. Mar 16, 10:50 1
    - yeah, they should have done it. that's a persistent little virus. -- nm - loosilu Mar 16, 10:50

- my smuttah! (Up) i have a brit-only school questions for you - fairway frank Mar 16, 10:48 3
  - Mostly they're secondary schools, however some might call themselves colleges or something else. - LMS Mar 16, 10:53 2
    - Oh, and we don't have sororities at university. You just go to the pub or the student union (on campus pub) if you want to belong. -- nm - LMS Mar 16, 10:59
    - good to know. my script thanks you! -- nm - fairway frank Mar 16, 10:55
- If you haven't seen Up, then Up. -- nm - oblique Mar 16, 10:46
- spoiler inside.... - i'm not dead yet ! Mar 16, 10:44 3
  - I love when people reply to questions about what to watch with posts tagged "spoiler". - TFox Mar 16, 10:46 2
    - and, in this case, without saying which movie is being spoiled. -- nm - b. Mar 16, 10:48
    - i know, but i like to say it any-- squirrel ! -- nm - i'm not dead yet ! Mar 16, 10:47
My son will be pleased. Shipping for Wednesday: 2012 -- nm - oblique Mar 16, 10:39 11
- And then he'll watch it and....not be pleased any more. -- nm - Will Hunting Mar 16, 10:42
- [deleted] 8
  - The movie bascially is OK for kids, right? Other than the mindless killing of billions of people? -- nm - oblique Mar 16, 10:46 7
    - it's mind numbing destruction but nothing I'd think that should keep the kids away. -- nm - Mel Profit Mar 16, 10:53
    - [deleted] 4
      - 10 - oblique Mar 16, 10:53 3

        Never know if someone decides to have end of the world sex or something - oblique Mar 16, 10:56
    - It might make em dumber. -- nm - Will Hunting Mar 16, 10:47
- What ships in two years? -- nm - Kick Ass Mar 16, 10:39
I just realized that TT/ST has been doing crowdsourcing of answers to questions for us for years now even before someone put a name to it - oblique Mar 16, 10:38 2
- Yeah, we should do our own and splits the profits. -- nm - David Mar 16, 10:54 1
  - (70% Mara, 30% split among everyone else.) -- nm - David Mar 16, 10:54

- Fucking farmville... -- nm - oblique Mar 16, 10:38 3
  - "I'm a lead farmer, muthafucka!" ... (I've been reading Tropic Thunder quotes, for some reason) -- nm - Beryllium Mar 16, 10:46 2

- Also the final series of Ashes to Ashes starts next week in the UK. -- nm - LMS Mar 16, 10:45
- I hope she gains some weight. she's too thin. -- nm - peglegpete Mar 16, 10:36
- Wow, what a step down. From a quality USA show to Parks and Recreation. -- nm - Will Hunting Mar 16, 10:32 18
  - You were wrong about Community, you're wrong about this show. It's quality. (nm) - musubi Mar 16, 10:46
  - you must not watch - fairway frank Mar 16, 10:33 15
    - It's 4th by a mile on NBC's Thursday night lineup and if i ever can stomach to watch the Marriage Ref, it might fall to #5. -- nm - Will Hunting Mar 16, 10:36 13
      - Which still means it is a huge step up. -- nm - Kick Ass Mar 16, 10:37
      - You know how you admitted you were dumb about Community? Yeah, you're dumb about this too. -- nm - Reagen Mar 16, 10:37 11
        
        I'll admit I was wrong about Community (but to be fair, their first 4-5 shows were very uneven) - Will Hunting Mar 16, 10:41 10
        
        Again, you are wrong. (nm) - musubi Mar 16, 10:47 2
        
        Yeah, I don't watch it but from what I have seen it has really came into it's own. -- nm - Kick Ass Mar 16, 10:48 1
        
        I'll grant the criticism, that in the first maybe 2 or 3 episodes, it was very uneven. (Like Community) - musubi Mar 16, 10:50
        
        it's pretty much the antithesis of Michael Scott -- nm - fairway frank Mar 16, 10:43 6
        
        The first couple episodes, Leslie did seem to be written as Michael. But definitely not since. - Dr.Vermin Mar 16, 10:45
        
        Overly obnoxious management types who would be shit-canned in a heartbeat for the idiocy? - Will Hunting Mar 16, 10:44 4
        
        again I'm going to guess you haven't watched past the first two or so. -- nm - Reagen Mar 16, 10:45 3
        
        I gave it half a dozen this fall when they shoulda ironed out the issues. They didn't. - Will Hunting Mar 16, 10:47 2
        
        You clearly either didn't watch 6 episodes, or you were watching the wrong show thinking it was Parks & Rec. - musubi Mar 16, 10:48 1
        
        Or he watched the first three twice and didn't know it. -- nm - Kick Ass Mar 16, 10:49
    - He obviously meant a step "up". -- nm - Kick Ass Mar 16, 10:36
  - "What! Is! Parks & Recreation!" *cue theme music* -- nm - TFox Mar 16, 10:33
