        I doubt any. They cast on personalities and it's humans being humans, you don't need to script anything for this kind of show -- nm - Gwaahjo Jul 28, 11:37
        
        I really get the impression reading Probst's blog on the show that none of it is - oblique Jul 28, 11:33

- British Airways -- nm - chuckles Jul 28, 11:25
- code shares, too? probably united, in any case. -- nm - b. Jul 28, 11:25

- [deleted] 1

Anyone here have a TempurPedic mattres? - CQ Jul 28, 11:21 4
- I do not, but I know several people that do/did. Some love it more than anything. Others wanted to burn it and then kill it again. - Don Homer Jul 28, 11:24 1
  - sleep number?! hmmmm -- nm - CQ Jul 28, 11:27

    - Dawson is to Blackberry like Dr. Vermin is to arguing -- nm - oblique Jul 28, 11:23
I pulled my car out of the garage to was it, step inside to the stuff I need and it starts raining. - TWuG Jul 28, 11:13 5
- Irony is if it waited until you were nearly done washing it. -- nm - Black Rabbit Jul 28, 11:20 1
  - Or if it was his wedding day. -- nm - Dano Jul 28, 11:24
- cosmic justice -- nm - chuckles Jul 28, 11:16 1
  - That would be if it rained just *after* I washed the car. - TWuG Jul 28, 11:20
- that's convenience. -- nm - TFox Jul 28, 11:15
LMFAO. I wish Amy still posted here. -- nm - Black Rabbit Jul 28, 11:09 4
- you should be on facebook and she should be here instead -- nm - chuckles Jul 28, 11:10 2
  - The Facebook GM would veto that trade instantly. -- nm - TFox Jul 28, 11:18 1
    - Can't we just have Amy on ST and Facebook and Spawn relagated to the Blood Feud Draft Board? -- nm - amoxy Jul 28, 11:26
- as do we all :(\ -- nm - decline Jul 28, 11:10
Yay! The ancient, uncomfortable, smells-like-urine $2 is showing Toy Story 3! I'm so there. -- nm - ty97 Jul 28, 11:06 8
- "I'll take the non-urine-smelling theater for an additional $3 charge, please. -- nm - JaxSean Jul 28, 11:09 7
  - I think $5 only upgrades you to the vomit-smelling theatre with bad sound around here -- nm - ty97 Jul 28, 11:10 6
    - that's an upgrade? you'd take vomit smell over pee? -- nm - TFox Jul 28, 11:12 5
      - Jax would - ty97 Jul 28, 11:13 4
        
        Welcome to "I'm good!" Cinemas! -- nm - TFox Jul 28, 11:14 2
        
        You want topping for your popcorn? -- nm - JaxSean Jul 28, 11:17 1
        
        "I'll.... umm.... so many choices.... I guess I'll have the 'windows to the walls' combo box?" -- nm - TFox Jul 28, 11:18

[deleted] 13
- So don't talk. - Dr.Vermin Jul 28, 10:59 12
  - While I think you agree on this issue (at least in result, if not reasoning) it's pretty safe to say you asked for ST's opinion. -- nm - ty97 Jul 28, 11:04 1
    - [shrug] Fair enough. But if someone is complaining about discussing things with me, there's a pretty simple solution. -- nm - Dr.Vermin Jul 28, 11:07
  - [deleted]
  - Guy argues more honestly and rationally than you. - Reagen Jul 28, 11:02 8
    - Just imagine if an honest to goodness Hoya joined the thread. -- nm - TFox Jul 28, 11:13 2
      - Everyone would have to just bow out and defer. -- nm - Reagen Jul 28, 11:14 1
        
        Smrtest graduates evah! -- nm - Don Homer Jul 28, 11:15

is there anything more uncomfortable, short of something that inflicts pain or requires lube, than one's mouth waking up from a shot of novocaine? -- nm - znufrii Jul 28, 10:54 9
- A collapsed lung hurt more than getting shot -- nm - ceregon Jul 28, 11:22 1
  - word -- nm - Black Rabbit Jul 28, 11:23
- lots -- nm - chuckles Jul 28, 11:09
- yes. -- nm - b. Jul 28, 11:07
- no - not really -- nm - Epiphany Jul 28, 11:00
- Dinner with my in-laws? -- nm - Camilla Bowles Jul 28, 10:57
- The bore worms! -- nm - Princess Aura Jul 28, 10:56
- Sure. Clogged sinuses. -- nm - TWuG Jul 28, 10:55
- *puts your nose between my as$ cheeks* - groiny si Jul 28, 10:54
she needs to cut the line. -- nm - loosilu Jul 28, 10:48 36
- I need to cut a rug. *gets up and starts dancing* -- nm - CQ Jul 28, 10:53
- serious question - you yourself have said you aren't in any head space to get involved with someone, but i assume you expect to get past that. why - Andie Jul 28, 10:53 34
  - then he shouldn't be dating her, and certainly not demanding exclusivity (which he apparently did). It's not fair to her. -- nm - loosilu Jul 28, 10:55 33
    - it's pretty controlling. which isn't unexpected from someone recently out of a bad relationship/breakup, but has to be dealt with asap. - b. Jul 28, 10:59 31
      - he's just broken. but she loves him. so tell him that, and he's either too broken to deal, or not. - TFox Jul 28, 11:01 30
        
        She already has her answer. If he were ready she wouldn't have to ask. -- nm - loosilu Jul 28, 11:12 13
        
        horse and bullpoop, mixed in a single bag. but she can tell him. -- nm - TFox Jul 28, 11:13 12
        
        oh, come *on*. -- nm - loosilu Jul 28, 11:15 11
        
        i'm dead serious. its asinine to not tell someone you love them if you really love them, because they were actin' the fool. - TFox Jul 28, 11:17 10
        
        Agreed. It's the not telling some how you feel that people regret. - Inigo Jul 28, 11:22 6
        
        I have done it and regretted it. -- nm - loosilu Jul 28, 11:28 5
        
        that sucks. - b. Jul 28, 11:32
        
        I have told this before I have said I Love you to 4 people - amoxy Jul 28, 11:31 3
        
        without including the L word, I have regretted telling the other person about my feelings almost every time. -- nm - loosilu Jul 28, 11:32 2
        
        Sorry Loosi, I am not going to play - amoxy Jul 28, 11:34 1
        
        fair nuff. -- nm - loosilu Jul 28, 11:35
        
        in any case, it ups the odds you'll then learn what's really what. - b. Jul 28, 11:20 2
        
        girls think too much. -- nm - TFox Jul 28, 11:22 1
        
        duh. -- nm - b. Jul 28, 11:24
        
        It's amazing how 99% of this stuff is answerable by "You need to have a conversation with him/her/znu." - Diva Jul 28, 11:07 13
        
        And the other 1%? - amoxy Jul 28, 11:31
        
        hee! -- nm - znufrii Jul 28, 11:12
        
        this was my real answer to her question. How about have an effin conversation with the man to let him know how you feel? but - CQ Jul 28, 11:09 10
        
        We all need our go-tos. - Diva Jul 28, 11:14 1
        
        agreed but he already partially blocked her - Epiphany Jul 28, 11:28
        
        if you have to ask, the answer is already no. -- nm - loosilu Jul 28, 11:13 5
        
        People don't get to the all the stages at exactly the same time. Someone might be happy and committed but just not ready to go to the next level - Andie Jul 28, 11:17 1
        
        then, it's no, as I understand it. not "maybe later". -- nm - loosilu Jul 28, 11:26
        
        that's not always the case. not everyone communicates the same way. - b. Jul 28, 11:16 1
        
        the problem is not his words, it's his actions. Actions are what count. -- nm - loosilu Jul 28, 11:27
        
        not necessarily -- nm - chuckles Jul 28, 11:14
        
        every time I think about asking a personal situation question here, I think about your responding that way. -- nm - b. Jul 28, 11:10 1
        
        heh, I save that for the boston and hax chat questions. They're such stupid questions (most of the time) you wonder if - CQ Jul 28, 11:12
        
        I'm not sure how much you can really love someone who only gives part of himself. - b. Jul 28, 11:06 1
        
        b is smart -- nm - Epiphany Jul 28, 11:32
    - plus, I am wondering if b isn't right that he sounds like he has someone else. It kinda sounds like he does. -- nm - loosilu Jul 28, 10:57
