- Here's my honest 2 cents: Jolie is hot *and* a freak in the sack, and Jen is hot and just good in the sack. - JaxSean Dec 12, 08:08 12
  - [deleted] 5
    - She was white hot in Wanted, I will give her that. -- nm - Shaun Dec 12, 08:14 1
      - Word. -- nm - Jim Dec 12, 08:15
    - No frickin way! Stand them next to each other and it would be like Aniston doesn't even exist. -- nm - Jim Dec 12, 08:14
    - plus the whole cheating thing is a major turnoff. -- nm - Max Dec 12, 08:13
    - ha! we have the same taste in chicks! -- nm - candy canes love mandy lane Dec 12, 08:13
  - with all respect, most people would think Jolie is hotter. -- nm - loosilu Dec 12, 08:09 5
    - I guess I am in the minority as she never did it for me - amoxy Dec 12, 08:12 2
      - TO me Jen is average cute; Jolie is screen goddess. -- nm - loosilu Dec 12, 08:13
      - I guess you are! Freak! :) -- nm - Jim Dec 12, 08:13
    - Her freakyness quotient just tilts the scale. - JaxSean Dec 12, 08:12 1
      - Plus, it is said that Jen did not want babies but Brad did. -- nm - loosilu Dec 12, 08:12

- Tips are out of control really, especially if you live in NYC. Tip the door man, the super, the whoever gosh else works in the building. -- nm - lileve Dec 12, 08:01 20
  - in their defense, they are providing a service, and the holidays provide the opportunity to thank them for their service. - znufrii Dec 12, 08:03 17
    - The building's maintance fees pay their salary. -- nm - lileve Dec 12, 08:04
    - that's what their salary is for. -- nm - loosilu Dec 12, 08:03 15
      - no, their salary is what they get paid during the year, a tip is a personal token of appreciation. -- nm - znufrii Dec 12, 08:07 14
        
        80 per cent of people provide a service. Do you tip cashiers? -- nm - Roger More Dec 12, 08:08 12
        
        [deleted]
        
        generalyl no, because the service they provide does not surpass the level of cursory facilitation of the transaction. -- nm - znufrii Dec 12, 08:09 8
        
        you can say the same about doormen and building supers -- nm - Roger More Dec 12, 08:12 7
        
        depends on the case, but in general I disagree, because you have a much more direct relationship with them, as they work where you live. -- nm - znufrii Dec 12, 08:15 2

        professionals are a different class altogether. -- nm - znufrii Dec 12, 08:14 2
        
        professionals like trainers and hairdressers? -- nm - loosilu Dec 12, 08:16 1
        
        The distinction there is that trainers and the like usually have their fees set by the place of business, which takes a sizable cut in overhead. - znufrii Dec 12, 08:29
        
        how about doctors and nurses? -- nm - loosilu Dec 12, 08:08 1
        
        priests and nuns! -- nm - lileve Dec 12, 08:09
        
        by that logic I should tip everyone. -- nm - loosilu Dec 12, 08:07

  - honestly ... why park? why does he need to be there? -- nm - loosilu Dec 12, 07:59 2
    - because she has to be with the kids - Marcel Dec 12, 08:00 1
      - them's fightin' words. I can park. ;P I just meant, drop them off and get them later. -- nm - loosilu Dec 12, 08:01
- If I were you I'd plan on not parking at all. -- nm - loosilu Dec 12, 07:56 2
  - Nubby will tell you that based on the location of this mall, this is a certifiably crazy action being undertaken here. -- nm - HdnAgnda Dec 12, 07:59 1
    - expecting to park at any mall at 4:30 on Dec 23 is fantasy, IMO. -- nm - loosilu Dec 12, 08:00

I don't know why I'm stressing over gifts this year, but I am - do you guys think that a homemade fleece blanket would be a 'good' gift? -- (link) - kelly Dec 12, 07:27 10
- I think these look better with edge binding. And that's safer for babies and pets since they can chew off the fringey pieces. -- nm - Amy Dec 12, 07:57
- yes, yes - I think people like them and they are in use - can I make a tiny suggestion? - Epiphany Dec 12, 07:46 1
  - I usually make sure each piece o' fleece is 2 yds, so I'd think that would be long enough. -- nm - kelly Dec 12, 07:48

- who's the recipient? -- nm - Roger More Dec 12, 07:28 5
  - Sorry, an adult. (She's a Dallas fan so I was going to use Cowboys fleece.) -- nm - kelly Dec 12, 07:31 4
    - If you think they'd like it and actually use it, sure. But not so much if it would be ornamental, or is really a present for the baby -- nm - Roger More Dec 12, 07:36
    - Horrible gift. Now if it had a Giants logo? GOLDEN. -- nm - Shaun Dec 12, 07:34 1
      - Heh. - kelly Dec 12, 07:36
    - oh. not so much for an adult unless their taste runs to "cute" -- nm - loosilu Dec 12, 07:33
