    - if it's an empty bag of carrots, then it's just an empty bag -- nm - Roger More Jun 2, 11:10 1

I just went to pick up a chair/ottoman set that, according to the price tag, required "no assembly". - kelly Jun 2, 11:05 2

- One of the things that's been most difficult for me about the last few years is how everyone lives so publically. - Reagen Jun 2, 11:13 5
  - It's interesting, because people are simultaneously clamoring about privacy, and then *dying* to plaster bullshit all over the Internet. -- nm - TFox Jun 2, 11:15 4
    - I think it stems from the idea, "I want to post everything I want, with no repercussions." (nm) - musubi Jun 2, 11:31
    - I guess I always assumed those were different people. -- nm - mara Jun 2, 11:17 1

  - Yes, I'm with you. -- nm - loosilu Jun 2, 10:58
- She's wrong saying Facebook friends are "virtual friends." For many, if not most, they tend to be family, co-workers, and real-life friends. -- nm - mara Jun 2, 10:49 8
  - For me, it's a combination. I have 'real friends' on there, family, but also people I'm not overly close with - ty97 Jun 2, 10:52 4

    - No Jenna. I looked under both her stage and real name. Celebrities are getting too smart for this game to be fun. -- nm - ST Jun 2, 10:57
- Carrie Underwood. -- nm - Andie Jun 2, 10:45 7

  - (Also, I'm pretty sure real tanks have "HOW'S MY DRIVING" bumper stickers. If not, they should.) -- nm - Beryllium Jun 2, 10:42 2
    - I bet they will now. -- nm - Remlik Jun 2, 10:55
