    Organic toothpaste? They make such a thing? That's as weird as those range-free chickens that apparently don't come pre-cooked. The person below me still gets zits sometimes even though they're well beyond their teens.

    Not really, but I probably have. The person below me puts extra cheese on their frozen pizzas.

    I've never done that one, but my weekend job is at a c-store. People on vacation stop and chat and I tell them, "Have a safe trip." and they reply, "You too." My dad's response to "Have a nice day" was "Oh... <awkward pause>... I had other plans." The person below me has had a "feathered" haircut.
  6. Just for the record, only the last two lines of what you posted were mine even though you somehow attributed the entire post to which I was replying to me as well. The rest of the post is the opinion of Axedog.

    It depends on who is annoying me and why. If a stranger (especially a customer) is annoying, I play nicey-nice whilst playing the game back in a most pleasant manor. If it's a friend and I'm having a really bad day and they're just funning me, I let them know that it's not a good time. If it's an annoying person who can be intimidated, I go Rabid PMS Woman in an instant just to see them freak out. If they're not annoying me intentionally, I try to stay nice. The person below me can be a smartiepants when the occasion arises.

    Members photos

    Three methods: 1) Get a camera and film. Take a picture of yourself. Go to the drug store. Have them make copies. Mail us each a copy with the instructions that we should hold it up to our computer screen whenever we're in this thread. Make a post that says "MY PHOTO HERE" so we know where to put it. 2) Get a digital camera. Take a picture of yourself. Get a photobucket account or something similar. Put your picture in it. Copy the URL as directed in your photobucket or other similar thing. Come back to this thread. Open the response window as you do when typing a post. Click on the "picture" thing. Paste the URL as directed. Click "post". 3) Change your name to "Lick Dingdong". Marry and/or impregnate a Kardashian. Hang out with Justin Beiber. Sell military secrets to Chad (either the country or just some random guy named Chad- doesn't matter) and seek asylum in Kashyyyk (trust me, they'll never find you). Your photo will be on all of the major websites. Link us to any URL you wish. Good luck.

    Oh, heavens, when fecal material hits the propeller, I grow fangs. I'm an evil woman under stress and pressure from people who irritate me. The person below me enjoys watching people they don't like get annoyed.
  10. Ok, by process of elimination, Pillow is Franzen? Because he's soft?

    Nope. I don't hate the kid. I just enjoy having someone who is so easy to snicker at. I don't wish anything bad on him, and I'm sure he couldn't care less what I think of him, so if there's a good barb to be had at his expense, I'll have at. The person below me is in need of a vacation.

    No. Hasek is great, was great, and will always be great, but he's moved on. The person below me enjoys a good knock knock joke.

    Sometimes, but more often I'd rather just spend more time with my hamster. The person below me lets their phone go uncharged until it dies.
  14. It's the offseason. I'll like him again in September. For now, he gets the summer off from being liked. He's on vacation and shouldn't have to worry about whether or not some middle-aged unbotoxed wretch in North Dakota approves.

    Oh, heavens, no. It was 58 this morning. Beautiful. Just starting to sprinkle a bit, but we need it. The person below me is doing what they thought they'd be doing at their age when they planned their life as a kid.

    Nah, she's shorter than Robert. Maybe people think that it's his mother or something though.

    Shawn Burr has passed away per Bill Roose

    He was exactly two weeks younger than I am. As far as I know, the closest Wing to my age. There's no good time or way to die, but having seen too many friends and family die from cancer lately, it's almost a blessing to avoid the suffering that goes with it. I'm not saying that it was good that he died, just that this spared him a lot of pain. I hope that came out right. It would have been better had he not been sick at all, and was alive and well with us right now. Condolences to his family and friends, and to the fans who had a special place for him in their hearts. RIP Shawn, and thanks for the memories.

    I was thinking get all three and go with two friends. If said friends are female and very hot, it would be even better as a "grind line".

    So the consensus on Shanny's #14 is a no?

    It's been a long time, but I vaguely remember that after Stevie retired, Shanny felt that it was time to hand the reigns to Z and Pav- the next generation, if you will. He felt that his time here was done when Stevie left. Or something to that effect. Granted, that might have been what he told the press, and he might have had other reasons. Who knows? Anyway, that's what I remember hearing from back then. Any verification- one way or the other- would be appreciated.

    So the consensus on Shanny's #14 is a no?

    We wouldn't have to lower our standards very far to include Shanny, but we would have to lower them, so let's not do that. The more discussions I have like this, the more I wish we did have that "ring of honour". No one will ever see the number 14 on a Red Wing and think, "ah, Meech".

    I avoid politics. Too many theories trying to fit every individual person's situation into a single box. The person below me gives to charity.

    Indeed. Sometimes I think about thinking about philosophical things and wonder what my philosophy is about thinking about thinking. I'm deep. Real deep. The person below me can type with their eyes closed.

    Random Discussion Thread

    I am SO totally with you on that! Back in the day, if the plot called for a killing or beating, it was either done off-camera or was obviously fake. The obviously fake stuff was terribly done, but realism wasn't the goal back then. Sometimes the imagination is a better tool for horror than imagery. I hate fake blood. It makes me queasy far beyond real blood does. I hate zombies. Even more, I hate people dressed up as zombies. I understand wanting a plot with conflict, and violence makes for huge conflict. Gratuitous violence doesn't enhance the plot and just makes it gross to watch.

    Nah, at my age I only date old people. As it is, I'm not dating anyone. The person below me is still good friends with a former significant other.
