        YEAH!!! -- nm - David Sep 15, 12:37
    - right. keep your copy of Reach, tell them Prime is useless if you haven't gotten release date shipment three times, and you want that money back. - TFox Sep 15, 12:25 3
      - Agreed. Plus, you'd have to pay sales tax on the Best Buy one. -- nm - David Sep 15, 12:26 2
        
        tell them you had a Halo party planned and they fucked it all up. nm -- nm - groiny Sep 15, 12:27 1

ugh... i hate that drones are the future of warfare - Guy Sep 15, 12:00 15

- Drones will be a large part of our arsenal, but they will never replace boots on the ground. - Stephen Sep 15, 12:13 4
  - but they will replace most of the jets. 5th gen. fighter jets will probably be the last manned ones. -- nm - zork Sep 15, 12:17 3
    - jets can literally fly faster than the pilots, it is possible to kill the pilot wih high g turns - zeitgeist Sep 15, 12:23 2

- Seriously! Why can't we just send our young men and women to get killed like in the old days? -- nm - decline Sep 15, 12:03 4
  - this response is tragic. that anyone thinks it is alright to attack another country without sacrificing something is deplorable, imo -- nm - Guy Sep 15, 12:21 2
    - Ah to live in your world. Let's ask any of the parents, wives, brothers, sisters, children of men killed in battle how they feel. - Jim Sep 15, 12:36
    - Indeed. War is supposed to be fair. And it's not fair unless each side has the same number of casualties. -- nm - Dr.Vermin prefers dead soldiers too Sep 15, 12:36
  - because then we'd actually have to have a debate over whether or not the goal was worth the cost. -- nm - znufrii Sep 15, 12:05
- man, even dying for your country in a pointless war is getting automated. what happened to us, America? -- nm - bugsy Sep 15, 12:02

- Without a doubt, pasta. - Stephen Sep 15, 12:01

  - this might explain why you're having difficulty with Halo - Reagen Sep 15, 12:28
- True English breakfasts are not complete without fried bread...cook the bacon, then fry the eggs in the fat, then throw in a couple of slices - MojaveMeg Sep 15, 12:03 2
  - Oh we do our eggs in the bacon grease too. - Stephen Sep 15, 12:08
  - it'd just go to waste otherwise, can't have that. - znufrii Sep 15, 12:07
- if you've ever had butter/margarine on toast then bacon grease is not much different except more taste - zork Sep 15, 12:00 3
  - But I don't have butter sandwiches... - Stephen Sep 15, 12:02 2
    - I said toast with butter on it, not butter sandwich. -- nm - zork Sep 15, 12:04 1
      - But I was talking about lard sandwiches! - Stephen Sep 15, 12:09
- iirc, and I may have suppressed details, my b-i-l heats up bologna and eats it over rice. maybe with green tea somewhere in there. -- nm - b. Sep 15, 11:58 1

    - nah, you'd probably suck at that too! -- nm - zork Sep 15, 12:18
- i've been tempted to try homemade ketchup, but am turned off by the huge amount of tomatoes it takes for just a small batch. -- nm - kare Sep 15, 11:54 8
  - i just use a single 28 oz can of san marzano tomatoes for mine....nm - xi Sep 15, 12:21 1

      - that would actually be awesome. dare to dream. - kare Sep 15, 11:57 2
        
        serious question: would you accept guest blogs? -- nm - Roger More Sep 15, 12:14 1
        
        It probably depends on how tasty they are. -- nm - Beryllium Sep 15, 12:30
- Hyde 57? -- nm - bugsy Sep 15, 11:52
- Is it closer to a bbq sauce than a regular ketchup? -- nm - Don Homer Sep 15, 11:50 1

people who rent ketchup! -- nm - zork Sep 15, 11:49
