'Mark Agee Loved "Iron Man 2." But I also would have loved a movie titled "Two Hours of Dialogue-Free Scarlett Johansson Ninja-Kicking. Also, Robots." - JaxSean May 10, 09:53 3

  - You should check your penis' batteries. They must need replacing -- nm - oblique May 10, 09:57 1
    - neck down, phenominal. she looked better in Just not all that into you. nm -- nm - groiny May 10, 09:57
Breaking news: Gordon Brown has offered to resign. -- nm - loosilu May 10, 09:51 5
- Resign as PM, or resign as the party leader? There's a slight difference, if the politics are similar to how they are in Canada -- nm - Beryllium May 10, 10:04 3
  - there's zero practical difference. You can't be PM unless you are at least an interim leader of the party. -- nm - Reagen May 10, 10:09 1
    - actually, that's a really good point. I was getting all turned around by the American system, where the leader of the party isn't the one who gets - Beryllium May 10, 10:10
  - (Resigning as party leader was mentioned on B2) -- nm - Beryllium May 10, 10:05
- see last board. -- nm - Don Homer May 10, 09:59
Not that I expect realism from horror movies but (spoilers for the Nightmare on Elm Street remake) - Dano May 10, 09:51
I missed drama? OK kare. First it was not your responsibility to rein in the guy at your own shower. It was his wife's if anyone. Second, - loosilu May 10, 09:51 22
- thx. i kinda consider him a friend too, which is why i was thinking i should have paid more attention and said something. - kare May 10, 09:57 21
  - FWIW, I don't think you'd be out of line AT ALL to say something to the guy. - Jim May 10, 10:04
  - The party was in your honor. She was the hostess and his wife. it was her problem. -- nm - loosilu May 10, 09:59 13
    - I agree with this, but I'd also append the statement that it's *his* problem. (nm) - musubi May 10, 10:06 10
      - yeah, i'm a little on the fence about her being responsible because she's his wife, too. i get what people mean by it, but it's a little dicey - kare May 10, 10:09 4
        
        Yeah. I mean, the wife is your friend and was host, so it's only natural that you contact her first, - musubi May 10, 10:15
        
        Definitely not your responsibility. -- nm - Jim May 10, 10:10
        
        (then again, i emailed *her* about it, not him... ;) -- nm - kare May 10, 10:09 1
        
        *finger to nose* -- nm - loosilu May 10, 10:10
      - his problem creates a problem for kare, which is not ok. -- nm - loosilu May 10, 10:07 4
        
        let me just also say, that i'm pissed he did this. really pissed. he didn't have enough - kare May 10, 10:11 2
        
        You have every right to be pissed. If his wife talking to him doesn't work out, I think you should uninvite him yourself. -- nm - loosilu May 10, 10:12 1
        
        ok, maybe something less dramatic ... inform him that the minute he acts up, he's going home. -- nm - loosilu May 10, 10:12
        
        Yes it does. (nm) - musubi May 10, 10:09
    - ...and if he had other friends there, they should have done something. -- nm - loosilu May 10, 09:59
    - yup. -- nm - znufrii May 10, 09:59
  - it really is not your problem though. nm -- nm - groiny May 10, 09:58 5
    - hmm. well maybe i'm trying to take too much responsiblity. i think the fact that you naturally feel some responsibility for how people get along - kare May 10, 10:03 4
      - yes, but that's the hostess' issue. -- nm - loosilu May 10, 10:03 3
        
        Maybe for that particular instance...but I think kare's focus has already shifted to the coming events and the fear that it could repeat. -- nm - Jim May 10, 10:05 2
        
        oh, absoliutely. She has every right to worry about him at her wedding. - loosilu May 10, 10:05 1
        
        ;) - kare May 10, 10:12

I call dibs on being on Crash Davi's Tiger Stealing team! I'm the wheelman. -- nm - Remlik May 10, 09:50 4
- I can have the Xterra up there on 5 or 6 hours notice. Big cargo space... -- nm - MojaveMeg May 10, 09:53 3
  - forget the tiger, we need to steal Roy! nm -- nm - groiny May 10, 09:57 2
    - Naked Roy will jump out of the trunk, put his junk in your face and beat the crap out of you. [nm] - Mel Profit May 10, 10:01
    - no room. we already shoved pixie in the trunk -- nm - crash davis May 10, 09:59

  - Say hello to znufrii's Unicorns for us while you're there. -- nm - JaxSean May 10, 09:54
  - See also "Hill Street Blues"; See also "Lessons Forgotten by TV execs" -- nm - crash davis May 10, 09:54

    - I think they should put more scantily clad babes in the show - Reagen May 10, 09:57 2
      - They ruined this season by somehow making Sarah not attractive for a majority of the time up until the last 2 weeks -- nm - oblique May 10, 10:02 1
        
        They kind of troweled on the stage makeup, best as I can tell. -- nm - Reagen May 10, 10:03

    - so very different from the shows of today -- nm - sherlock homie May 10, 09:46
    - the one that amused me the most was Wurlitzer, because it seems somewhat similar to Journeyman, Quantum Leap, and early edition -- nm - Beryllium May 10, 09:44 3
      - Baffled is basically Early Edition (or Seeing Things, for the CBC fans among us) - Reagen May 10, 09:46 2
