I do black and brown together all the time. to me, black and navy is like cats and dogs living together. should not be done. -- nm - workmanda Apr 22, 15:28 22
- navy blue is too close to black, but I bet the royal and black look good. -- nm - Max Apr 22, 15:33 6
  - royal and black is great together. -- nm - Callisto Apr 22, 15:36
  - navy and black go together all the time in military and police uniforms. -- nm - loosilu Apr 22, 15:33 4

- same here. -- nm - loosilu Apr 22, 15:31
- I agree. -- nm - Callisto Apr 22, 15:31
- Blue and black works..Ala black top with denim pants -- nm - budice Apr 22, 15:31 3
  - denim is not a color! -- nm - loosilu Apr 22, 15:32
  - that's not the same. - Callisto Apr 22, 15:31 1
    - totally not. well, if it's black denim, the rules may still apply. -- nm - kare Apr 22, 15:32
- i would shy away from brown and black before navy and black. but then cats and dogs live together in our house so... -- nm - kare Apr 22, 15:31 6
  - and hell, two primary wedding colors are charcoal and brown, so. - kare Apr 22, 15:32 5
    - Are those your colors, or is it just general info? - the liioulu with nuggets Apr 22, 15:34 4
      - mine. i left out an "of my" -- nm - kare Apr 22, 15:35 3
        
        Okay. So..one dog's brown and one dog's black and the cat is both? ;) -- nm - the liioulu with nuggets Apr 22, 15:36
        
        those must be unusual flowers. -- nm - loosilu Apr 22, 15:35 1

You know, for decades -- *decades*! -- people were fine putting holds on books by calling the library. Now it's a huge inconvenienc that they have to - mara Apr 22, 15:19 10
- Hm. I honestly probably wouldn't put books on hold if I couldn't do it online. - Callisto Apr 22, 15:24 3
  - I truly wish we could. Every library we talk to implemented the system says as many as half of the holds placed online never get picked up. -- nm - mara Apr 22, 15:27 2
    - I can believe that. - Callisto Apr 22, 15:35
    - Allow only one hold until they actually pick one up? - psilotum Apr 22, 15:33
- I love the sarcasm here. - mara Apr 22, 15:23

My friend is going through a harsh breakup and asks me for advice but continues to insult me at the same time. wtf. - Hotkiss Apr 22, 15:09 11
- Tell 'em that you'll see 'em when they get over said ex. -- nm - the liioulu with nuggets Apr 22, 15:30
- They are lashing out at you instead of the person they broke up with - amoxy Apr 22, 15:29
- But is he sort of ignoring and/or arguing with all the advice you're giving him? - Dr.Vermin Apr 22, 15:12 7
  - oh, do we know it's a boy? i just assumed bi/lesbian. i have no idea why, come to think of it. -- nm - kare Apr 22, 15:13 6
    - Reagen, are we still doing the caw? -- nm - David Apr 22, 15:23
    - actually I have no bi/lesbian friends around here. -- nm - Hotkiss Apr 22, 15:19
    - We don't. That is/was just primitive heteronormative assumption on my part. -- nm - Dr.Vermin Apr 22, 15:15 3
      - it's kind of hot that you used the word heteronormative. -- nm - workmanda Apr 22, 15:24 2
        
        if TFox were here, he would cry. -- nm - loosilu Apr 22, 15:33
        
        *blush* - Dr.Vermin Apr 22, 15:28
- is she usually like this? sounds like she's acting out in anger. not that that makes it remotely okay. -- nm - kare Apr 22, 15:09
oh! here's something else. i have come up with a design for our backyard, and Jeff wants to do all the work himself - kare Apr 22, 15:08 35
- it's a wonderful thing. he did a great job building the garden didn't he? - 'lia Apr 22, 15:15 1
  - oh, i do totally know that. :) -- nm - kare Apr 22, 15:18
- He's letting you design the (technically his) backyard and insisting on doing all the work. - Dr.Vermin Apr 22, 15:14
- Assuming he's a decent landscaper, I don't see a problem. nm - Dignan Apr 22, 15:10 31
  - he's never done this kind of thing before, actually. (then again: it is officially his house.) -- nm - kare Apr 22, 15:11 30
    - oh, i take that back. he did build me my (awesome) garden. this though involves trenching and grading. -- nm - kare Apr 22, 15:11 28
      - Trenching for what? Irrigation? nm - Dignan Apr 22, 15:13 21
        
        a french drain (major drainage issues in our yard) -- nm - kare Apr 22, 15:14 20
        
        Oh, that's easy. nm - Dignan Apr 22, 15:15 19
        
        he's going to use a pick-axe! what if it bounces just right and severs a leg artery?!! - kare Apr 22, 15:18 18
        
        I doubt a swung tool could bounce high enough and with enough force to damage anything in the femur region, a few toes? that you can live with - zeitgeist Apr 22, 15:39 2
        
        I use spade, pitchfork and hand thingy (can't come up with the word). - the liioulu with nuggets Apr 22, 15:44 1
        
        Forgot to say I still have all my toes and have never nicked an artery or vein gardening. -- nm - the liioulu with nuggets Apr 22, 15:45
        
        He'd likely bleed out. nm - Dignan Apr 22, 15:20 13
        
        (this is funny.) -- nm - workmanda Apr 22, 15:26 1
        
        To a sociopath, maybe. nm - Dignan Apr 22, 15:32
        
        what would you use? seriously, if you've done something like this, suggestions are welcome - kare Apr 22, 15:21 10
        
        How long is the drain going to be? nm - Dignan Apr 22, 15:22 9
        
        there will be two trenches leading to two storm drain type thingies. probably about 70 feet total? -- nm - kare Apr 22, 15:23 8
        
        I'd probably start with the pickaxe (the hoe implement) to break the ground and then use a trenching shovel. - Dignan Apr 22, 15:31 6
        
        trenching shovel. googling. thanks! -- nm - kare Apr 22, 15:33 5
        
        Note: they can be difficult if you're working with clay. nm - Dignan Apr 22, 15:36 1
        
        *giggles* that's an understatement - 'lia Apr 22, 15:45
        
        Shortcut: call the FBI. - Dr.Vermin Apr 22, 15:35 2
        
        ha! love it -- nm - kare Apr 22, 15:42
        
        Extra friends of whatever type will come in handy. Order lots of pizza, pop and beer. -- nm - the liioulu with nuggets Apr 22, 15:41
        
        oh, one leading to each side of the house. if that makes sense. -- nm - kare Apr 22, 15:25
        
        assuming his friends are also trauma surgeons, i don't see a problem -- nm - dignan si Apr 22, 15:19
      - i say let him go at it. he probably needs to feel involved. - Andie Apr 22, 15:13 5
        
        i think it'll be fine. great even. he's like... the best thing ever. i'm just sometimes a slight control freak, and i also wanted to help. - kare Apr 22, 15:17 4
        
        leave the man work to the men, sweetie -- nm - the 40 year old virgin Apr 22, 15:18
        
        :) i'd never make it without peeking, ftr. -- nm - Andie Apr 22, 15:18 2
        
        Women are *untrustworthy.* nm - Dignan Apr 22, 15:20
        
        i may be coming back here and asking for support and strength when it comes to that. -- nm - kare Apr 22, 15:20
    - Assuming his friends are decent landscapers, I don't see a problem. nm - Dignan Apr 22, 15:11
So what's the point of the new Cooking Channel? How will this be different to FoodTV? -- nm - MojaveMeg Apr 22, 15:08 1
- FoodNetwork isn't all cooking. -- nm - loosilu Apr 22, 15:30
time to go home and study, sigh. -- nm - tRuMaN Apr 22, 15:08 1
- you just reminded me to register for my kaplan class. thanks! -- nm - workmanda Apr 22, 15:08
so I am wearing today black pants, royal blue blazer, white shell, black socks, dark royal blue shoes. not navy. dark royal. faux pas? -- nm - workmanda Apr 22, 15:06 11
- what's the difference between navy and dark royal? - the 40 year old virgin Apr 22, 15:16 4
  - I think Superman blue is royal blue. -- nm - Max Apr 22, 15:19 2
    - really? i was picturing much darker -- nm - the 40 year old virgin Apr 22, 15:20 1
      - hmmm, that's kinda blue. but then brown and black aren't a faux pas anymore so i say "approve!" -- nm - the 40 year old virgin Apr 22, 15:22
  - To us? Nothing. To chicks? How much time do you have? nm - Dignan Apr 22, 15:17
- *imagines mandy like a hermit crab in a giant white seashell* -- nm - pmb Apr 22, 15:13
- please consider the source, but it sounds okay to me. - kare Apr 22, 15:10
- I don't see the problem, except that you look like a giant bruise. -- nm - Max Apr 22, 15:08 3
  - I should take a photo of the bruise on my wrist. -- nm - workmanda Apr 22, 15:09 2
    - handcuff accident? -- nm - Max Apr 22, 15:11 1
      - Nothing accidental about it. nm - Dignan Apr 22, 15:12

- Halo in 4.5 hours. -- nm - Spawn Apr 22, 15:06
Tru, I thought you guys had beaten him. Have you not yet? -- nm - David Apr 22, 14:57 16
- i haven't. I think J has, but via online random co-op games. i dont think Remlik has either. -- nm - tRuMaN Apr 22, 15:01 15
  - true....I happened upon other peoples games, but now i'm thinking I could take him by myself if I had the patience -- nm - J Apr 22, 15:33
  - I have not. I've been waiting on you guys to do it. -- nm - Remlik Apr 22, 15:12 1
    - Maybe Santa Tru will bring us all some of his ultra-weapons. - David Apr 22, 15:14
  - Alright, there's a group project. I'm reading it takes a while, but I did get him a quarter dead in about 10 minutes. -- nm - David Apr 22, 15:02 11
    - when me and j tried, i was the bait. literally. he had him 90% killed off before I screwed up and everyone swarmed me - tRuMaN Apr 22, 15:03 8
      - Is J a siren? The ability to heal every 20 seconds or so is a huge deal in boss fights. -- nm - David Apr 22, 15:04 7
        
        no, J, Remlik, and me are all soldiers (I know, its sad) there is a nook on the left side you can use to attack from - tRuMaN Apr 22, 15:06 1
        
        That's the problem I'm having. His buddies are all bad-asses. -- nm - David Apr 22, 15:12
        
        Make sure you put on a party-mod that has healing power. -- nm - Will Hunting Apr 22, 15:06 4
        
        Even though I've never played with the group, I've saved a mod for just such an occasion. - David Apr 22, 15:10 1
        
        we have better mods that will do more. I bought a badass siren one to give to someone cause it's a loaded team mod -- nm - Remlik Apr 22, 15:13
        
        oh i have one of those - shield regen and healting, and one that does ammo regen and mag size increase. - tRuMaN Apr 22, 15:07 1

  - interesting. i saw an iPad on Tuesday, it's *nice*. it looks like it would be nice to read on i must say. -- nm - Andie Apr 22, 15:01 4
    - Some people don't mind reading from an LCD screen, but I can't do it for more than five minutes. nm - Dignan Apr 22, 15:03 3
      - it seemed... softer. -- nm - Andie Apr 22, 15:04 2
        
        that's what she said (to dignan) - the 40 year old virgin Apr 22, 15:11 1

  - Shelton has all the talent inthe world, but he has zero personality. -- nm - Remlik Apr 22, 14:56
