I hope they change the god awful ending. It was great until that shitty spider bullshit.

Almost 100 pounds in a year, nicely done! Was that all from diet or have you been exercising?

Ikea has some awesome, cheap food. Around here that's where all the Mexican immigrants go to feed their huge families on Sundays.

Hasn't it become fairly standard practice that fatties have to buy 2 seats?

I think they all look great, but I have no idea how they're supposed to look. I have a feeling my lack of knowledge regarding these characters and stories is going to increase my enjoyment of this movie exponentially.

Speaking of clapping for stupid things... ...it rustles my jimmies that people clap when an airplane lands. I'm not sure if this is a worldwide thing, but I noticed it specifically in Eastern Europe and Asia. People, planes are SUPPOSED to land successfully. It's something you should expect...

I'd say LOTRO has done a far better job at story telling than any other MMO. The fact that the epic quest line runs from level 1 through max level is amazing in-and-of itself, but they also made the majority of these quests very cinematic.

That's absolutely not true. My old gym used to be completely packed from around 12 to 3 on Saturdays and Sundays. I'm talking all 9 benches occupied, both squat racks, the power rack, and almost all the cardio machines. It wasn't quite as bad as weekday evenings, but it was certainly a "busy...

I'm the same way 99% of the time. However, when it snows to the point that you're stuck in a space by a plowed pile of snow 2 feet high, I try to be considerate and not take the space of someone who spent time digging themselves out. For example, when I got home from work the other night the...

Apartment complex with non-reserved parking. As to why, well, it's just common courtesy. I grew up in a condo community with the same parking situation and it was an unspoken rule that you only parked in the space that you dug out yourself.

Yeah, I'm not sure what book most of you read, but A Game of Thrones (i.e. the first book) was theleastfantasy-based of them all, in my opinion. Other than the brief and vague stuff about the White Walkers at the beginning and the dragons showing up at the end, it was pretty much medieval politics.

People who park in a parking space that you shoveled to get your car out. I swear to God, if I go home this evening and see the parking space that I spent 45 minutes digging myself out of occupied by another car I'm going to be really angry and seethe internally but do nothing of substance.

It's no different than people standing in line for hours to try some hyped-up burger joint or whatever.

Caps are all bullshit. 250gb might be fine now for some people, but it won't be in the future. I spent 2 years with a 10gb/month cap because there was only one real ISP and if you wanted more than 10gb/month you had to sell your first born child or some shit. That's where the U.S. is heading.

I don't have a problem with part of it being a "popularity contest". Half the fun of the show is watching the nerds try to grapple with social interaction. If there wasn't an important social angle, they'd all just keep to themselves, study for every possible challenge, and it would be boring as...

Obviously it's more complicated than just eliminating calories. That's been discussed in detail several times in this thread already. All calories are not the same, blah, blah, blah. For your standard, overweight desk jockey, ketosis and all this other scientific shit isn't necessary to lose...

For most people, "the low carb thing" basically just boils down to creating a caloric deficit by eliminating the insane calorie bombs that are staples of the standard American diet: big bowls of pasta with bread on the side, sandwiches with enormous buns, etc. These same people are just stupid...

Regarding Olympic/International baseball, I always figured it was similar to hockey in that the majority of the best players in America (both amateur and pro) aren't actually American. Therefore, for international competition lots of them play for their home countries and make it a lot harder...

Well "King" makes sense because it implies a larger size. A "King size mattress", for example. However, we'd never call a small mattress "fun size". It's completely retarded.

A new jimmie rustler, which was prompted by a recent discussion in the Fast Food Thread: I hate "fun size" candy bars, so the other day I grabbed a full size Snickers. I opened it up to find it was actually just two "fun size" bars next to each other in a full size package! What the fuck is...

Craig Ferguson is extremely underrated. I think he's especially good at his monologues compared to the other late night hosts. Jimmy Kimmel is another one who doesn't get the credit he deserves. He's not necessarily the funniest of the bunch, but he tends to do some absolutely hilarious skits...

This is what he was dealing.

Sorry, but I've known plenty of "good" (i.e. law-abiding citizens) who have been killed due to random murders, burglaries, accidents, and other bullshit that was completely out of their control. Their deaths were tragic and I feel sorry for them and everyone who loved them. However, I'm not...

Anyone who's seen "Cool Runnings" knows that bobsled is what failed track stars do after failing.

I must try these:Unholy Abomination Called 'Doritos Loaded' Tested At D.C.-Area 7-Elevens: DCist

I hate when food is advertised as "right size". That's just a clever way of saying that it is nothing more than a snack and you'll have to order several of them to equal a single meal. I remember TGIFriday's used to have something similar to "right price, right portion", and it was the saddest...

I strongly disliked Fallon at first, but I admit that he's grown on me. I certainly think he's improved a lot as he's progressed and gotten more comfortable with the talk show role. He does a lot of really funny stuff.

Don't make excuses, just work out in the morning. Wake up early so you can hit the gym and get it over with. It's an amazing feeling to go home from work and know that you've already taken care of your workout for the day. Not to mention the fact that working out is a great way to start your day...

I finally got around to trying Old Rasputin. Maybe it was all the hype I've heard about it (here and elsewhere), but I thought it was pretty mediocre. It wasn't bad, but I don't understand why people say it's so amazing. I was disappointed.

I agree with this. For example, running through the Shire and seeing actual players standing in fields and farming crops was such a cool experience. The game is certainly "on rails" similar to most WoW-style MMOs these days, but the designers did such an amazing job of capturing Middle Earth...

This is the first CCG I've ever played and I'm so, so bad at it

If you have a Nordstrom Rack anywhere nearby you should check it out for shoes. I wear 14 - 15 and it's the only place I can reliably find quality, name brand shoes in those sizes. They have a great selection of larger sizes. It's about 45 - 1 hour away from me, but I make the trip once a year...

At this point most Americans think that Olympic events only happen during prime time. Last night I was out and I got some texts asking me why I wasn't watching the opening ceremony. I replied that I had followed it online when it originally happened yesterday morning. They were like "lol wut...

100% this. Jesus. If you can afford to move elsewhere, then move. And that no sound after 11pm thing is bullshit. Are you living in a fucking boarding school? Come the fuck on, the second someone tried to make me sign that shit would be the second I decided to move out. The crazy guy just gives...

The day after my glorious cheat day last weekend I clogged my toilet up something fierce.

Well, if you're going to drink you're probably best off with wine. It isn't too bad in terms of calories.

I think I'd care more about how a watch looks than how accurate it is. Clocks on electronic devices are so ubiquitous nowadays that there really is no functional need for a watch. At least she didn't buy him a bracelet. This happened to me.

There's already a sequel to Gone With the Wind. Scarlett: The Sequel to Margaret Mitchell: Alexandra Ripley, Stephens Mitchell: 9780446502375: Amazon.com: Books

I tried going back and watching these recently and I couldn't get through the first season. I don't think they held up very well at all. I think I've been spoiled by only really watching HBO/Showtime types of shows for the last several years, because X-Files seems so insanely formulaic, and...
