Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

We are Buffistas. This isn't our first apocalypse. -- Pix

They are still extensively used in Canada and Alaska.

Yeah, I took a Beaver out to a project site south of Ketchikan a few years ago. So fun!

Good luck with the house and the networking, flea!

Compassionately intolerant

I'm so in love with the cleanliness of the b.org design that I see no major value in adding pictures. I don't mind following links but, then again, I only use a desktop, so portable devises are not my issue.

I have to go read the article about the Harlem Shake because I have been completely mystified by it's popularity.

The Gangnam style thing, I could somehow understand more. Getting people to do synchronized stuff is more interesting to me. Mass craziness? Not so funny to me.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I wouldn't want to disturb most of b.org. Thinking again about what I posted, making some threads image-able (as in, the pictures are embedded in thread, not linked) would make a specific area of the site change in tenor, so if you have bandwidth or passing off as work issues, you could ignore that thread, or turn images off (my style sheet forces them off, for instance).

But I feel that images are becoming a bigger part of casual communication, and they're fun, and clicking on links doesn't paint the same picture (pun perhaps intended) as images embedded in text.

Because books.

You want to go wild in Supernatural, don't you? Not that I don't approve, of course.

I never figured out how to embed images in LJ comments, so someone might have to explain it to me, but I would be okay with it.

Our wings are not tired.

That makes sense, ita.

Shaq did the Harlem Shake thing with the HS basketball team after their state championship game this year. The boys were likely more psyched about that than winning state again. [link] It is remarkably idiotic, but the kids relished the attention from the big man. DH didn't coach them this year because he had too many other commitments, but he of course was cheering for them and went to games when he could.

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there

Maybe add it for show threads, and Beep Me? I dunno. I'm on board with the idea, though okay with things as they are as well.

I know this reaches back to an old conversation here - but every time I take a shower now I think of how I'm doing it. And if I have significantly different findings from the buffista experience. I'm over thinking my showers cause of y'all.

I'm in the office today. Mainly be cause a higher up (but not in my direct chain of command) invited me out to lunch to meet another highter up (also not in my direct chain of command). I'm curious beyond curious as to what is up.

Clearly, they're going to make you queen.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I know this reaches back to an old conversation here - but every time I take a shower now I think of how I'm doing it. And if I have significantly different findings from the buffista experience. I'm over thinking my showers cause of y'all.

ME TOO! And have realized that I face each way about half the time, which is not at all what I answered in the original survey.
