To those of you who don't click links, you will probably want to click that one.

I learned that Lewis Black has a beer named after him.

Ocksi · « **Reply #1442 on:** October 27, 2010, 08:21:26 PM »

Yeah, he lives in town here and is a huge supporter of the local arts scenes, so he gets a lot of credit from the businesses. A friend divorced his wife semi-recently and, as she's a high-up in the Playmakers, Lewis Black let her use his apartment, since he is always traveling, anyway.

Top of the Hill kinda sucks, sadly. They are opening their own distillery to go with the brewery, though. Things could get interesting!

I learned to find you chaps almost a year later <3

Hi Shoe

Back from India, Shoe?

Also Noro is going to post some? Maybe?

Mongrel · « **Reply #1447 on:** October 31, 2010, 07:30:37 AM »

Huh, don't like it there anymore? Or just homesick?

It turns out the cable is buried in the same place we decided to start our garden!

On the plus side, the cable guy said it was a crappy cable anyway and we should get much better service now.

According to most of the recipe books I've seen that survived the 1950s, gelatin, canned meat and olives stuffed with pimentos were the staple of every healthy family meal.

The words "annual" and "anal" derive from the same Latin root word, "anulus", meaning "ring" or "cycle".

Keep that in mind next time you go in for an annual review, annual checkup, annual report and of course, your anniversary.

One ring to rule them all.

Picking out paint isn't very fun and I always thought it would be :T

I've learned that I've been grinding my teeth in my sleep to the point of damage.
Combine this with my constant nightmares everyone is suggesting stress relief stuff or more drastic measures!

Funny thing is I'm not stressed!

Classic · « **Reply #1454 on:** November 16, 2010, 04:56:36 PM »

I have similar problems. The trick is to hide it from everyone.

EDIT:
No, do not actually do this. If you actually want something for the grinding get a mouthguard.

Today I learned that I do not give one iota of fuck about this philosophical argument I am supposed to write. It is so bad that I have written 8 words and stared at the screen, because that is more fun.

McDohl · « **Reply #1456 on:** November 17, 2010, 03:42:42 PM »

I feel ya, Obi. I'm getting myself distracted on purpose so I don't have to work on this research paper that's due tomorrow. I've written probably a quarter of what I need.

Büge · « **Reply #1457 on:** November 18, 2010, 08:41:28 AM »

I learned that when Sam & Max was pitched to Fox for a cartoon series, the execs wanted to make Max a girl so they'd have a female character. The Geek was introduced as a compromise.

Haha sounds like one of the guys I play TF2 with, he had a research paper due Tuesday, he hadn't started yet, and between Sunday and Monday we raked in over 20 hours of play time on the server we frequent.

McDohl · « **Reply #1459 on:** November 18, 2010, 02:57:31 PM »

Hey, that paper I mentioned last night?

Yeah, professor got sick, extension until Tuesday.

Both >:( and :D at the same time.
