Question: When unscrewing a bottle/jar, what hand do you use for the lid? Are you right handed or left handed? - Beryllium Sep 24, 09:46 13
- right handed, use right hand to open lid (left to hold bottle.) -- nm - Andie Sep 24, 10:08
- left/right. I do a lot of stuff left-handed/sided. I shoot pool lefthanded, skateboard left-footed, among other things. - nm - JaxSean Sep 24, 10:02
- right. right. -- nm - oblique Sep 24, 10:01
- lid right (when stuck left), lefthanded -- nm - marcel Sep 24, 10:00

- Depends how stuck it is. -- nm - Subversive Sep 24, 09:57
- What you said. -- nm - Dr.Vermin Sep 24, 09:50
- rpedominantly righthanded, semi ambidexterous, left hand takes the lid -- nm - i'm not dead yet ! Sep 24, 09:49

ST Poll -- Songs you will repeat when they pop up on shuffle... - znufrii Sep 24, 09:43 9
- this week, I've listened to the same 2 songs many many times. I have had to force myself to add something else in periodically. - b. Sep 24, 10:10
- A bunch of really embarrassing things that I don't want anyone to know about. -- nm - Kim Pine Sep 24, 09:58 1
  - This -- nm - amoxy Sep 24, 10:01
- Lo Fidelity Allstars - Battleflag. - Subversive Sep 24, 09:54
- Ned Doheny - Get it Up for Love; the Eagles - In the City; most songs by Steely Dan -- nm - Facto Sep 24, 09:52

this bottle of Jones Soda won't let me open it. -- nm - Beryllium Sep 24, 09:28 11
- Try buying it dinner first. -- nm - pmb Sep 24, 09:41
- for some reason, I just had a vision of creating a line of bottled sodas with a reverse screw cap. - znufrii Sep 24, 09:38
- It wants foreplay. -- nm - Spawn Sep 24, 09:29 8
  - I think I need a very tiny band wrench. I can get some movement out of the cap, but then it gets stuck. -- nm - Beryllium Sep 24, 09:35 5
    - find a counter or desk with a sharp edge ... - zork Sep 24, 09:38 2
      - it's a screw-off cap ... but I guess that might be enough to deform it -- nm - Beryllium Sep 24, 09:45 1
        
        bottle openers work on screw-offs. doing this won't bend it but will just force it off. it really works. -- nm - zork Sep 24, 09:54
    - Dude. Let the soda win. -- nm - Spawn Sep 24, 09:36 1
      - This is not a bad idea, but at this point it's the principle of the thing :) -- nm - Beryllium Sep 24, 09:48
  - Don't do it! Things get messy when pop orgasms -- nm - zork Sep 24, 09:33 1
    - sticky situations! -- nm - Beryllium Sep 24, 09:33
it seems that a lot of people don't understand what probation means. Hello, it does not mean "you got away it". -- nm - zork Sep 24, 09:28 1
- Sure it does. "I'm not in jail! I won!" -- nm - Beryllium Sep 24, 09:29
There is a song that I have been listening to a lot lately. Sleepless by The Decemberists. Discovered it on 'Dark was the Night' charity (for HIV) CD. - HdnAgnda Sep 24, 09:26 3
- oooh, shiny! -- nm - znufrii Sep 24, 09:34
- I *love* dark was the night. we listened to it nonstop for the first several months it was out. -- nm - chromanda Sep 24, 09:34 1
  - I have a coworker to thank for lending it to me. Decemberists is a good group to listen to in the autumn days. And sometimes I will - HdnAgnda Sep 24, 09:40

  - I needa few days for catch-up. -- nm - Spawn Sep 24, 09:37
Punch Drunk Love had scenes from Waikiki Beach (Royal Hawaiian Hotel), but generally, surprisingly little footage from Honolulu and/or Waikiki in US - Facto Sep 24, 09:18 18
- I'm sure expense is a part of it, but I think a lot is probably burnout from the 70s and 80s. -- nm - Ender Sep 24, 09:43
- The entire series of LOST was filmed in hawaii. (nm) - musubi Sep 24, 09:26 16
  - I specifically asked about Honolulu :-) -- nm - Facto Sep 24, 09:30 10
    - You mean the city where a large portion of LOSTs scenes were filmed? (nm) - musubi Sep 24, 09:31 9
      - Ok, allow me to claim ignorance as regards LOST.. Never followed it. Had it in the background plenty of times, but they were almost always in a Robins - Facto Sep 24, 09:35 1
        
        Almost all the flashback sequences that were supposedly LA, were actually honolulu. (nm) - musubi Sep 24, 09:44
      - You said "The entire series", though. -- nm - Spawn Sep 24, 09:33 6
        
        You are correct. Do I need to draw you a Venn diagram? (nm) - musubi Sep 24, 09:35 5
        
        "This venn diagram looks like Hawaii!" - facto is asking about a subset, you are talking about a superset. -- nm - Beryllium Sep 24, 09:36
        
        But he did not ask about all of Hawaii. See? -- nm - Spawn Sep 24, 09:36 3
        
        That doesn't make my statement any less acurate...Perhaps I do need to draw you a Venn diagram.... (nm) - musubi Sep 24, 09:40 2
        
        The sky is blue. -- nm - Spawn Sep 24, 09:42 1
        
        Congrats, it's nice to see you make at least one accurate post a day. (nm) - musubi Sep 24, 09:45
  - The subject was good movies. -- nm - Spawn Sep 24, 09:27 4
    - Did you read Facto's post? He specifically named many TV shows. (nm) - musubi Sep 24, 09:30 2
      - Ah, not this one. I limit my Facto intake. -- nm - Spawn Sep 24, 09:31 1
        
        Wise man. -- nm - mara Sep 24, 09:42
    - yes, otherwise I would have been all over it ... Hawaii Five-O, Magnum PI, LOST ... Hawaii Five-O again ... ok, I'm out. -- nm - Beryllium Sep 24, 09:28

- but what about Katie Pery? What about Paris Hilton?....nm - xi Sep 24, 09:37 6
  - Paris Hilton is not allowed into Japan. Katy Perry is not allowed on Sesame Street. -- nm - Dano Sep 24, 09:38 1
    - The SS thing is stupid. -- nm - Spawn Sep 24, 09:39
  - Pery got arrested? -- nm - Spawn Sep 24, 09:37 3
    - nah, she's too busy looking good -- nm - zork Sep 24, 09:39
    - what i hear is that her cleavage was all over sesame street.....nm - xi Sep 24, 09:39 1
      - Muppet Arrest! -- nm - Spawn Sep 24, 09:39
- can't see it here. let me guess, she cried and looked shocked? -- nm - Andie Sep 24, 09:28 2
  - TMZ story in IM: As for Lindsay's reaction ... she was shocked when the judge remanded her into custody. Lindsay looked at her lawyer, ... - zork Sep 24, 09:31 1
    - "had to"? I'd rather not be the one telling a judge what he has to do. :) -- nm - Beryllium Sep 24, 09:32
- I am hoping she says for longer than 2 days -- nm - amoxy Sep 24, 09:18 4
  - until next hearing on Oct. 27 (and maybe after that too) -- nm - zork Sep 24, 09:21 1
    - Let het out for All Hallows. - Spawn Sep 24, 09:23
  - so do the gals who made Lindsey their bitch -- nm - i'm not dead yet ! Sep 24, 09:19 1
    - I had stopped myself from posting that she must have missed the broomstick but I guess I don't need to self-censor after that -- nm - zork Sep 24, 09:20
anyone up for gut checks? - i'm not dead yet ! Sep 24, 09:17 12
- Wall Street is good, and appeals quite broadly (all four quadrants). Gahool is supposedly best use of 3D since Avatar - should be a long. You Again? -- nm - Facto Sep 24, 09:19 11
  - I don't think it's a 4Q film at all. -- nm - chromanda Sep 24, 09:51
  - Piranha was the best use of 3D since Avatar. -- nm - Spawn Sep 24, 09:34 4
    - Piranha is better use of 3D than Avatar. -- nm - Dano Sep 24, 09:35 3
      - Actually, Piranha 3D is a better movie than Avatar but the 3D isn't as good. Step 3D is better 3D than Avatar. -- nm - Dano Sep 24, 09:37 2
        
        Streetdance also had good 3D, I think it's coming out in Canada next month. -- nm - LMS Sep 24, 09:40
        
        I was going for a movie that someone other than you saw, though. -- nm - Spawn Sep 24, 09:38
  - I really want to go see the Owls but I don't know we'll have time. Maybe Sunday night with the kids -- nm - oblique Sep 24, 09:20 4
    - Some commentators seem to think Wall Street could buckle for the same reasons most movies about Iraq, Afghanistan and 9/11 failed at the box office. - Facto Sep 24, 09:33 3
      - why are you talking like a pundit? -- nm - Reagen Sep 24, 09:50
      - Or it could just be an unwanted sequel 20 years too late. -- nm - Dano Sep 24, 09:47 1
        
        *ding* -- nm - oblique Sep 24, 10:00
"Jon never got his Ham glazed" -- (link) - amoxy Sep 24, 09:16 2
- Saw this yesterday at IDLYITW.com. Apparently he was a set dresser and not in on the action. -- nm - HdnAgnda Sep 24, 09:17 1
  - Bery, I am glad you are a very easy going moderator. I posted the same thread on my FF board - amoxy Sep 24, 09:25
Pulp songs - Common People, Disco 2000, Sunrise and from Jarvis Cocker's solo album 'Black Magic' amongst others. - LMS Sep 24, 09:16 8

  - OK added all of these to my station. thanks. -- nm - JaxSean Sep 24, 09:21 5
    - if you're still accepting suggestions: The Silver Seas, esp. 'Miss November' -- nm - znufrii Sep 24, 09:35
    - Common People is one of those *perfect* songs that exist in the world. -- nm - Spawn Sep 24, 09:22 3
      - heh. it's playing right now. -- nm - JaxSean Sep 24, 09:26 2
        
        ~You're so funny.~ -- nm - Spawn Sep 24, 09:28 1

LIR regarding Thurs night ratings. Man, Community and 30R really got crushed by BBT and Stuff My Dad Says. Interesting to see how Outsourced held onto - HdnAgnda Sep 24, 09:12 6
- I'm not sure I want to live in a world where BBT and S** my dad outdoes Community and 30 rock - musubi Sep 24, 09:28 1
  - word. -- nm - JaxSean Sep 24, 09:29

  - You're thinking of Gung Ho. But those were Japanese. -- nm - Dr.Vermin Sep 24, 09:15 1
    - Oh wow. There's a movie I haven't thought about in a long time. I see your Gung Ho and raise you a Max Dugan Returns. -- nm - HdnAgnda Sep 24, 09:19
This is my theme song for Max now. -- (link) - Dano Sep 24, 09:11 [youtube] 1

I don't know the specifics of Bono's charity, but I think in general you might be underestimating the importance of marketing in causes. - Dano Sep 24, 09:10 2
- and lobbying as well... -- nm - znufrii Sep 24, 09:11 1
  - Exactly. Haters just want to be hating. -- nm - Spawn Sep 24, 09:25

  - Way to ruin it for everyone! -- nm - Jim Sep 24, 09:11 2
    - bah. I thought it was like an invisibles entry thing or something. (Plus I really don't know if that's right or not.) -- nm - JaxSean Sep 24, 09:12 1
      - BANHAMMER!!! -- nm - Spawn Sep 24, 09:30
- spoils - Jim Sep 24, 09:11 1
  - That was my guess -- nm - amoxy Sep 24, 09:12
Oh. -- nm - Mop (218 lbs) Sep 24, 09:09
Blue Lagoonies! -- nm - Mop (220 lbs) Sep 24, 09:09
Jax, what about "Eternal Flame" by The Bangles? -- nm - TFox Sep 24, 09:09 4
- Susanna Hoffs mmmmmm (in the 80s) -- nm - Capstern Sep 24, 09:10 2
  - Uh, she has remained hot. But I guess she is way too old for you now. -- nm - Spawn Sep 24, 09:27 1
    - When I say the '80s comment, I thought "Man, Cap has gone to the other extreme." :P -- nm - HdnAgnda Sep 24, 09:37
- *lights Bic lighter* - JaxSean Sep 24, 09:09
