I'm sure all you shoe people also keep your coat on and wear hats while indoors as well.

How about plastic on the furniture, don’t you want to keep your couch as nice as possible?

If people spent all their time walking on their ass, then yes.

You wouldn’t want people running out of your house shoeless during the winter in an emergency right? It's brand new carpet, and I aim to keep it as nice and clean as possible, for as long as possible. So, no shoes on the carpet. I don't think it's an odd request at all, and if it is, so be it. I ge...

I actually thought about posting an open invitation here but every person I've tried to interact with 'IRL' on this board has declined in one way or another so I figured I'll just accept the hint.

Exploding Binary Stars Will Light up the Sky in 2022 This reminds me; I was listening to NPR over the weekend, and one of the TED talks was regarding the new LSST telescope. They were saying they have found 45 or so supernovae over the past 3 years. With this new telescope, they will be able to fin...

I started watching Arrested Development, going all the way back to season 1. I watched a few episodes here and there when it was originally on the air, but I'm really looking forward to watching it all the way through. Glad you are giving this a new start. The last season is lacking, but there are ...

FOTC jokes aside, I would love to visit New Zealand. It's a major commitment though. Gotta go for at least two weeks.

Anyone here ever been to New Zealand...? What's its deal? Fake Australia? or improper-fraction version of Ireland...?

All hail the winter beer.

Speaking of, I had a bottle of Mad Elf on Thanksgiving. I will now seek this treasure for future winter consumption.

When was the last time DJ Gallo tweeted anything remotely funny? Has to be at least one lifetime. Maybe two. I remember thinking he was funny 7 or 8 years ago. I'm going to go with 12-15 years ago. Sportspickle was funny, then he started going down hill when he started writing little blurbs for ESPN.

I would prefer not to have a repeat of 2004, which this season is eerily shaping up to be.

I made the comment to my wife in the last episode that it was funny to see there was never anybody on the street in Hawkins. Only 5 or so families had any idea a smoke monster built its lair underground. Everybody else was too busy playing Commodore 64 apparently.

Also learned that the Broncos beat them twice a couple years ago. Was neck meat the QB in both of those games @MalkinIsMyHomeboy ?

Well, if you were seeing him as Rudy, does it surprise you that a ND puffball would do such a thing? Seeing him as Samwise made it much worse for me. I kept thinking Bob was going to turn out to be a mad scientist or working with the smoke monster. To hear he was the founding member of the A/V club ...

493398 These kids aren't geeks. Dustin, especially. He would be the funny fat guy at the cool kids table. Being that Steve has taken Dustin under his wing, perhaps that is his story arc after all. I liked Season 2 as much as 1. Episode 7 was just misplaced IMO. If they had started out the season wi...

I don't remember when/where I heard this, but is it true that Belichek with Brady has never lost to the same opponent twice in the same season, including postseason? Maybe against Manning once?

One cannot tune into a Christmas music station and not hear "Baby it's cold outside" within the first 1/2 hour. That song can also die a cruel death.

f'in lawyers. all i have to say.

My case for zero is as follows: The straw was made by injecting the polymer onto a rod that forms the shape of the straw. From inception the straw is a rod-like entity formed with that center void. Nothing was ever extracted, no polymer material was ever removed to make that empty space. A straw co...
