- Just imagine if it were the original series. -- nm - the wrong element, bad guy Jan 24, 20:41 3

- thanks! too bad their prizes still suck balls. -- nm - loosilu Jan 24, 19:59 3
  - They have tickets to Universal, not Disney. -- nm - Qale Jan 24, 20:09 2

    - or education items, or teacher expenses, or etc -- nm - tRuMaN is not a monkey. Jan 24, 19:52
  - I've noticed that universities take pride in withholding W2s until the very last moment possible. -- nm - nubby trebek Jan 24, 19:50 2
    - eh, we've had ours for 10 days already -- nm - prayformojo Jan 24, 19:57
    - Bureaucracy stacked on bureaucracy. -- nm - loosilu Jan 24, 19:54
