    - It is just I had seen that one no less than three times before ST got it. There are better ones in that issue, even. -- nm - Spawn Oct 21, 12:01 21
      - yeah, but its like saying "again" to store brand ice cream because you had Haagen-Daas earlier. - crash davis Oct 21, 12:04 11
        
        Reading below, it looks like loosi, among a few others. -- nm - Spawn Oct 21, 12:08 10

        Sancks, dear. - Spawn Oct 21, 12:10 1
        
        you mean where I said "again?" - loosilu Oct 21, 12:10
        
        so....you're siding with Lossi? -- nm - Beaker Oct 21, 12:08 2
        
        Eye candy is different than actual candy. Where I will always eat more real candy, my mind carves new things, not the same picture again and again.So - Spawn Oct 21, 12:09 1
        
        You've got a sharp mind. (nm) - Will Hunting Oct 21, 12:10
      - Prove it. -- nm - Will Hunting Oct 21, 12:02 8
        
        Take your pick. -- (link) - Spawn Oct 21, 12:05 [Image] 6
        
        Relatedly, I don't get the Lea Michelle love at all. Her nose is distractingly unattractive. -- nm - Will Hunting Oct 21, 12:06 5

        None of them are 10s, that is for sure. -- nm - Spawn Oct 21, 12:07 1
        
        She might struggle to a 7. - Will Hunting Oct 21, 12:11

Now I want pretzels. I don't even think I've seen pretzels in this country. - ty97 Oct 21, 11:50 18
- North Korea? -- nm - Mop (222 lbs) Oct 21, 11:55
- well do they atlest have peanutbutter coverd bacon on fried eggs? -- nm - Danedukenuuk Oct 21, 11:55 3
  - Bacon is hard to come by. Subway claims they can make a Subway Melt, but they don't have the bacon. And the ham is made of chicken. - ty97 Oct 21, 11:58 2
    - Strange but delicious. -- nm - Beryllium (iPhone) Oct 21, 11:59 1
      - Not...really -- nm - ty97 Oct 21, 12:00

    - were they sea-urchin flavored? -- nm - loosilu Oct 21, 12:04 1
      - They were imported. Snyder's of Hanover - ty97 Oct 21, 12:11
  - ummm.... -- nm - Germany Oct 21, 11:53 3
    - This is why I love you, Germany -- nm - ty97 Oct 21, 12:03
    - do they sell pretzels in bags like we have here? I don't remember. -- nm - loosilu Oct 21, 11:54 1
      - oh, I thought you meant real pretzels. - znufrii Oct 21, 11:55
- If not, I am moving there. -- nm - Spawn Oct 21, 11:51 2
  - you would starve India. -- nm - loosilu Oct 21, 11:52 1
    - starve IN India. WillHunting would starve India. -- nm - loosilu Oct 21, 11:53
I think I might have a serious problem here... - znufrii Oct 21, 11:47 25
- [deleted] 1
  - most of it's that I'm too busy procrastinating on doing my homework. -- nm - znufrii Oct 21, 12:00
- This is a serious problem for me. I've now entirely eliminated all snack foods from my house, because I just cannot resist. -- nm - Mop (222 lbs) Oct 21, 11:56 7
  - I'll usually get one "bad" snack item each week. (Like the pretzel M&M's, or chips.) The key is getting "good/better for you" snacks. - BloodyAxeSean Oct 21, 12:00
  - I'm on my way to this too -- nm - Beaker Oct 21, 11:57
  - this is me. I've banned myself from buying them. -- nm - loosilu Oct 21, 11:56 4
    - but where's the fun in that? -- nm - znufrii Oct 21, 11:57 3
      - Word. - Spawn Oct 21, 11:59
      - We can't all be rail thin, slims! -- nm - ty97 Oct 21, 11:59 1
        
        word. -- nm - loosilu Oct 21, 11:59
- Or as Will calls it, an "amuse bouche". -- nm - pmb Oct 21, 11:51 1
  - nice. -- nm - loosilu Oct 21, 11:51
- close to cracking three figures on the scale now? -- nm - TFox Oct 21, 11:50 1
  - with or without the thesaurus? -- nm - Beaker Oct 21, 11:51
- tape worm -- nm - Beaker Oct 21, 11:50
- I have an idea -- nm - RJ Reynolds Oct 21, 11:49
- Yeah, this is going to be my excuse, fatass. -- nm - Will Hunting Oct 21, 11:49
- You can let yourself go, now. -- nm - Mail Slot Oct 21, 11:49
- Hey Dawson, I won the betting pool on how fast J would knock znu up! -- nm - ty97 Oct 21, 11:49
- yeah that's a problem, fattie. - sycor Oct 21, 11:49 5
  - that would work, except for the whole not having a separate kitchen thing. -- nm - znufrii Oct 21, 11:51 4
    - Put the chip bag in a lock box once you pour a bowl of chips. Then put the key on the other side of the room. - sycor Oct 21, 11:52 3
      - Freeze it in a block of ice. - Spawn Oct 21, 12:11
      - Lock. Box. -- nm - Al Gore Oct 21, 12:01
      - I moved my alarm clock across the room so I have to get out of bed to turn it off/snooze. I've gotten to the point now where I oversleep - kilbooooo Oct 21, 11:59
Think we're going to see a movie tomorrow, which would be just my 3rd in the theater this year (Avatar back many months ago, and then Toy Story 3). -- nm - Don Homer Oct 21, 11:47
Holy crap....I think the 2nd pain killer took me from fine to stoned. - Will Hunting Oct 21, 11:41 22
- vicodin is good shit. -- nm - loosilu Oct 21, 11:52 1
  - That's why I stayed home yesterday..in case I went loopy.... - Will Hunting Oct 21, 11:55
- Are you at work? -- nm - bloody mara Oct 21, 11:44 10
  - Yes. So i'm stuck becuase I can't leave (in no shape to) - Will Hunting Oct 21, 11:45 6
    - Can you get somebody to drive you home? -- nm - amoxy Oct 21, 11:57 3
      - There is a co worker that has had his eye on Will. - Spawn Oct 21, 11:58
      - I'm starting to come out of it already so it was short-lived...but jeebus. -- nm - Will Hunting Oct 21, 11:58
      - I'm an excellent driver -- nm - Rainman Hobo Spider Oct 21, 11:57
    - dude, what is up! Let's get some waffles. -- nm - Hobo Spider Oct 21, 11:50 1
      - hee -- nm - BloodyAxeSean Oct 21, 11:55
  - Pretty sure he does not know. -- nm - Spawn Oct 21, 11:45 2
    - He'd better not be. Sounds like he's moments away from couch-lock. -- nm - Beryllium Oct 21, 11:45 1
      - heh -- nm - Spawn Oct 21, 11:48
- I missed, when are you getting it taken care of? - Spawn Oct 21, 11:44 5
  - Next Friday is the actual surgery, but the pain is from the infection and they need that under control first. - Will Hunting Oct 21, 11:46 4
    - what's wrong with you? -- nm - sycor Oct 21, 11:47 3
      - Root canal and associated pain - Will Hunting Oct 21, 11:49 2
        
        yikes. My root canal was easy peasy. I've had fillings that were worse. But then again I didn't have an infection. good luck! -- nm - sycor Oct 21, 11:50 1
        
        word -- nm - Spawn Oct 21, 11:50
- How many fingers am I typing with? -- nm - sycor Oct 21, 11:41 2
  - One on each hand.....so 3. -- nm - Will Hunting Oct 21, 11:42
  - if this was groiny, the answer would be "none" -- nm - Beryllium Oct 21, 11:42

  - not sold at the store i would get 30 months int free -- nm - Truman Oct 21, 12:01 3
    - any others? -- nm - Truman Oct 21, 12:03 2
      - The next one on the list is Alienware M 11 x, then HP TouchSmart tm2t. -- nm - bloody mara Oct 21, 12:11 1
        
        the tm2t is the one I've been looking at. -- nm - decline Oct 21, 12:13
  - $470, 3 gb memory, 320 gb hard drive. -- nm - bloody mara Oct 21, 11:43 3
    - What shape is the enter key? I need one that is a simple rectangle. And no short shift keys :) -- nm - Beryllium (iPhone) Oct 21, 11:58 2
      - you're a picky bastard, aren't you? -- nm - kilbooooo Oct 21, 12:01 1
        
        I have small hands. Short shift keys and deformed enter keys make it impossible to code. :) -- nm - Beryllium Oct 21, 12:05
- Back in a minute. -- nm - bloody mara Oct 21, 11:41
Going to the gym is getting difficult without seeing tangible results. - Dano Oct 21, 11:39 5
- [deleted]
- what's your routine? -- nm - loosilu Oct 21, 11:54 2
  - Day 1: Upper body, abs, Cardio. Day 2: Lower body, abs, Cardio. Day 3: abs, Cardio. Repeat day 1-3 and rest on day 7. -- nm - Dano Oct 21, 11:59 1
    - sounds good. what's the cardio? -- nm - loosilu Oct 21, 12:03

The Domino's here has a sign on the wall informing people that they don't sell raw materials. - ty97 Oct 21, 11:39 6
- and heck, the personal cheese pizza is 74 rupees, or about $1.67 anyway. Just buy the whole thing! -- nm - ty97 Oct 21, 11:43 1
  - Nevermind. Just realized where you were. That sign makes a lot more sense now. -- nm - Name Withheld By Request Oct 21, 11:51
- No kidding. Once, sure, people are that stupid to ask if they do. But enough times to prompt a notice? The mind boggles. -- nm - Name Withheld By Request Oct 21, 11:41 1
  - there used to be sign at the marriage license desk at san fran city hall that said "No Refunds" - zeitgeist Oct 21, 12:12
- "Dude, can I score some of your mushrooms. I'm desperate!!" -- nm - Don Homer Oct 21, 11:41
- People thinking it was a Papa Murphy's take and bake? -- nm - amoxy Oct 21, 11:41
First bite of Double Down.....is good. -- nm - Name Withheld By Request Oct 21, 11:37 2
- Second bite of Double Down.....is... *heart attack* -- nm - Spawn Oct 21, 11:41 1
  - Well, at least he died happy. -- nm - Mop (222 lbs) Oct 21, 11:56
decline: Hmm, you raise a good point. But either way, the Volt is too expensive for what little it delivers. - Beryllium Oct 21, 11:37 7
- Once the gas engine kicks in, isn't it recharging the battery? -- nm - bloody mara Oct 21, 11:38 6
  - I didn't read the review yet, but not all hybrids work that way. Toyota's hybrids do, but I think many others do not. -- nm - Don Homer Oct 21, 11:39 4
    - Toyota's hybrids "recharge" the battery from the friction of the brakes as well. -- nm - BloodyAxeSean Oct 21, 11:52
    - Several hybrids are only hybrid in name only; their fuel savings are achieved by automatically turning the engine off while idling. -- nm - Beryllium Oct 21, 11:40
    - "Once the battery gets drawn down to 35 percent of its capacity, the Volt's gasoline engine fires up, spinning a generator to produce more electricity -- nm - bloody mara Oct 21, 11:40 1
      - that sounds similar to how a toyota works, but the article that decline linked takes a different approach in describing it, i think -- nm - Beryllium Oct 21, 11:41
  - apparently it simply complements the drivetrain, versus the way it behaves in the Prius (charging the battery, synergy mode) - Beryllium Oct 21, 11:39
*can't wait to drive his family nuts with his rendition of Piano Man* -- nm - crash davis Oct 21, 11:36 2
- I think I'm going to go the Keyboard/Game bundle route, and save the Pro Guitar for an xmas present or something. -- nm - BloodyAxeSean Oct 21, 11:47 1
  - sounds like a good plan -- nm - crash davis Oct 21, 11:49
there we go, a birthday card :) and a $35 gift card to the nearby mall (which is nice.) -- nm - Beryllium Oct 21, 11:36 1
- trish will love it. -- nm - Spawn Oct 21, 11:45
There must be some mistake, I didn't mean to let them take away my soul. Am I too old, is it too late? -- nm - Spawn Oct 21, 11:35
