        It's mounted sideways. Truly, it is a typical canadian thermostat. ;-) -- nm - Beryllium Aug 30, 13:29 2
        
        more like upside down - the red line goes down as it gets hotter. it;'s kind of stupid. -- nm - Andie Aug 30, 13:29 1
        
        hilarious. -- nm - JaxSean Aug 30, 13:42
    - Well, my oven is. Dunno about my thermostat, but it's not unlikely. (18.8C is a tad nipply for indoors.) - Beryllium Aug 30, 13:23
WaPo story about Glenn Beck criticizing Obama's religious beliefs seems to be the story of the day among my FB friends. -- (link) - loosilu Aug 30, 13:19 9

- Can you cut & paste? - Stephen Aug 30, 13:22 6
  - ok. Page 1 - loosilu Aug 30, 13:23 4

    - stir up "a certain portion" of the country -- nm - Spawn Aug 30, 13:28 2
      - That can mean a lot of things. It would include people who've been hit hard by the downturn, for instance -- nm - Roger More Aug 30, 13:31 1
        
        Oh, I know, but it can be seen other ways just as well. - Spawn Aug 30, 13:32

  - Wild 94.7 -- nm - Stephen Aug 30, 13:20 1

this is so dorky cute: guys, I have a secret admirer at work. -- nm - amanda at work Aug 30, 13:16 5

- (he or she left me two pieces of cake while I was in a meeting. nobody saw anything. nobody's admitting anything.) -- nm - amanda at work Aug 30, 13:17 2
  - an admirer with good taste. excellent. - Andie Aug 30, 13:18 1

I love how the two memes I seem to have contributed to ST are the renter thing from my evil loan lady and my dog's strategically timed barks -- nm - ceregon Aug 30, 13:11 18
- [deleted] 1
  - I think that's Dano's territory -- nm - ceregon Aug 30, 13:41
- I think I've missed an ST meme -- nm - con_carne Aug 30, 13:13 5
  - which one? -- nm - JaxSean Aug 30, 13:14 4
    - the renters one - con_carne Aug 30, 13:19 3
      - here is where it started, I believe. -- (link) - JaxSean Aug 30, 13:37 [Backboard] 1
        
        Ah. I guess now I'm missing the part about why this is funny. Oh well, moving on. :) -- nm - con_carne Aug 30, 13:43
      - you know who was a renter? - Beaker Aug 30, 13:22
- i actually thought the renter thing started from lileve talking about her parent's renters. i could be wrong, -- nm - Andie Aug 30, 13:13 6
  - well, she only started because ceregon brought up loan lady. its a chicken/egg thing. - TFox Aug 30, 13:14 1
    - fertile like *renters* -- nm - Beryllium Aug 30, 13:15
  - definitely the 'gon. -- nm - loosilu Aug 30, 13:14
  - It could have been around the same time, but man ... ceregon's evil loan lady has some choice things to say about subjugating renters -- nm - Beryllium Aug 30, 13:14 2
    - It's hard to understand. She's very pleasant and nice to deal with, and very competent at what she does, but every so often she just goes off... - ceregon Aug 30, 13:22 1
      - There's no reason she wouldn't be nice or competent to deal with, from your end. - Beryllium Aug 30, 13:27
- now just teach the evil loan lady to park when she hears the word "renter", and you've got a sitcom -- nm - Beryllium Aug 30, 13:12 1
  - er, bark.l -- nm - Beryllium Aug 30, 13:12
- The funny thing is, I only know what one of the two is. -- nm - Spawn Aug 30, 13:12
behavior addictions and substance addictions are completely different concepts -- nm - zeitgeist Aug 30, 13:11 1
- to throw another wrench in the works: I remember reading that schizophrenics have an extremely high rate of heavy smoking. -- nm - loosilu Aug 30, 13:12
I swear the note on my autopsy is going to read "Death by Blood Feud Draft". -- nm - David Aug 30, 13:11 1

I got you deep in the heart of me, I got you so deep you're a part of me, I got you, under my skin. -- nm - zeitgeist Aug 30, 13:08 2
- silver threads and golden needles cannot mend this heart of mine. -- nm - peglegpete Aug 30, 13:10 1
  - darling you just sorta...stepped on my aorta -- nm - zeitgeist Aug 30, 13:12
Boy, I missed something today! -- nm - Addicted Mop Aug 30, 13:08

    - And pick duration? -- nm - Spawn Aug 30, 13:11 1
      - Five seconds unless you're LeBron James. He gets an hour. -- nm - David Aug 30, 13:13
    - I'd just go with a 28-day cycle -- nm - oblique Aug 30, 13:11
  - GMT -- nm - decline Aug 30, 13:09 1
    - It is always 10AM somewhere. -- nm - Spawn Aug 30, 13:11
Come and get us, bitches -- nm - Brandon Phillips Aug 30, 13:07
name your price, a ticket to paradise. -- nm - b. Aug 30, 13:07
I heard a thud on the porch. I assume a box from Indy has arrived -- nm - crash davis Aug 30, 13:07 7
- too bad. a meteorite cold have made you a lot of $$ :( -- nm - peglegpete Aug 30, 13:11
- bigfoot poop -- nm - milky Aug 30, 13:08
- Shankara stones? -- nm - Roger More Aug 30, 13:08 1
  - more likely the Stone of Shanara -- nm - zork Aug 30, 13:14
- Either that, or a moose had a heart attack. -- nm - Will Hunting Aug 30, 13:08
- are you sure it's not the footfall of a grizzly bear? -- nm - loosilu Aug 30, 13:08
- When you hear a knock on your back door, do you also assume Indy has come calling again? - oblique Aug 30, 13:08
