in current rental my damn feet are sliding all over the place, even with non slip work boots! surely a damp cloth would do the job! |

I like LeBatard enough and Bomani Jones, but it's a Highly Questionable decision to use the dad all the time. He grows tiresome.

I don't think this is worthy of its own thread but I am curious to get FOFC's feedback.
Radio Stations Pull "Girl Crush" After Parents Complain Really? Is America this stupid? So parents are complaining that this song by Little Big Town--which is about a woman being jealous of her ex-boyfriend's new girlfriend--promotes a gay agenda because it has the line "I got a girl crush" as its main line? I mean, do these idjuts even listen to the song? I mean, even if the song was about being a lesbian instead of being jealous, it still should be played. At least, then, though, I would understand the complaints, even if I disagree with them. But this is just stupid. Good song, too, BTW, in my opinion.

I once had a roommate who pretty much lived to collect these long marble rollercoaster tracks. Well, more like a big ball bearing types of metal balls, but they were marble-ish sized. He was one of those guys who could get totally obsessed about something in the short term. The tracks I am talking about weren't really wide like this guy's "marble alley" but were thin bendable plastic tracts that were just big enough to move a small round ball along. They came with connections on either side, so you could connect innumerable tracts together, and long thin poles with bases, so you could build a rollercoaster style track. They were selling a lot of these back when he was into it (a 25 year old man at the time, BTW), and he would go hunting for them. Found a bunch of them thrown out behind a Target one time and filled his little Gremlin-sized car with them, so that the whole car interior was full of these tracks, except where he could sit in the driver's seat. He built this massive "rollercoaster wall" in our main living area that must have gone 12-13 feet high (had a high arching ceiling in that room), two feet deep and at least 20 feet wide. What? Why, no, he didn't have a girlfriend lol.

My wife and I watch Food Network Star, mainly as a knockoff substitute for Top Chef during it's offseason.
The hosts for the last few years have been Alton Brown, Bobby Flay, and Giada DeLasomethingorother. Anyway, Alton won't be on this year. However, I saw a report he is getting divorced. Also getting divorced, Bobby Flay. Also divorced at the end of last year, Giada DeLacantspellit. Coincidence, or behind the scenes shenanigans? |

Giada kind of has a famous last name and also yeah, she maybe was doing both of them however she is somewhat religious I think.

Well, Flay was cheating on his wife. That is behind the scenes shenanigans, right?

Sometimes I wonder who we are to be the judges of whether these thoughts get their own thread.. It's like topical apartheid or something.

I didn't realize that the members of the Kilcher family that is on 'Alaska: The Last Frontier' are the immediate family of the singer Jewel.

I was sitting at the breakfast bar at home doing some office work and... "BAM!!@!" There was a loud whack from the front dining room like something hit the window. Hard. I look out the window and a bird is taking its last breaths. I feel horrible and it is 15 minutes later. Argghhh.

I haven't seen it in thirty-some years, so I can't agree or disagree. I will say this though: the only time I've ever sleepwalked was the night after watching the TV version. All these years later and I still can't bring myself to watch it again. I can't think of any movie that affected me anywhere near it. |

Lawnmower update
I let it sit for an hour and then tried again. On the 5th pull it started. Great, but I need to throw my shoes on. Do that, come back, and damnit, won't start. Keep trying keep trying. Starts. Mow lawn. Story over. |

I'm thinking this all day dry wedding that is being held all in the same spot is just going to be too much of a bridge to cross. Fact is weddings pretty much suck to attend as is, I know I'm not going to have a good time. Last cousin is (finally) getting married. Sitch is pretty creepy

I've only just realised that I'd lumped Kelly Clarkson and Taylor Swift into one persona - just found out that they are in fact two separate individuals.

I'm on a pay board for recruiting news and it's always miffed me what the purveyors of the paid information use for the titles of their threads. Here's a few examples:
"So some of the big locals that" "Tough news" "Family issues have been" "Folks, sorry I" Is it that hard to make a meaningful subject line that doesn't necessarily steal the thunder of the content but at least makes the board itself searchable?!

So I'm sitting here drinking some impossible to find import German beer from a small town that my Dad used to live in, that I got here in the states and was saving to drink it with him for when he comes to visit me. It has a best before March of 2013 on it. I finally decided he's never going to come visit and these need drank. Fuck my Dad.

Ok, I get that at the time is was just an SNL movie so people might not have been beating down the door to be in it, but you'd think they would have been able to find someone who was attractive to play Garth's dream girl in Wayne's World and not be visibly repulsed at having to have a 1 second long, closed-mouth kiss with the guy.
