I wish FlakeBook had a way to block applications by wildcards in their names. For instance, I'd like to block all updates containing the words "horoscope", "heart", "pimp", "smile", "snowball", "pillow", "cute", "hugs", "love", "quiz", or "super".
aww, come on, don't ya want to see how many people are harvesting new things on Farmville or serving new stuff from Cafe World?
- Mol, Santa Claws
Mol, the thing is, I actually play some of the games. In fact, that's all I do on FB. I wish people would understand that I don't want to collect hearts, hugs, and kisses.

Don't shoot me Santa Claus, I've been a clean living boy, I promise you, did every little thing you asked me to, I can't believe the things I'm going through...

It's all part of the Santa reboot. Hollywood should now do a Santa Origins story, directed by Michael Bay of course.

I'd love to but it's a money thing, cecily.

Ok, I have to admit, you're making me homesick with shots like theses, Cecily :)
- Micah Wittman
Ah, cecily, I was hoping to be in Vanc on Saturday for the BC Browncoats Holiday meetup, but I can't be there now. It's at the MacMillan Space Centre if you're interested - I can send you the link :)
- WorldofHiglet
Fans of Joss Whedon's Firefly sci-fi series and the resulting film, Serenity.
- WorldofHiglet
For some reason I thought you also lived in Vanc, WoH.
- Spidra Webster
Ah. If I had to ask, I probably shouldn't go.
- cecily
from iPhone
They would welcome you, cecily, but the whole thing would make a LOT more sense if you had seen the shows!
- WorldofHiglet
You should watch Firefly (it's on Hulu now I think?) and go! Damn, it looks like the whole show isn't up anymore. One of the best eps is going to expires in just a few days. It's called "Our Mrs. Reynolds" and stars Christina Hendricks who's now doing "Mad Men". http://www.hulu.com/firefly
- Spidra Webster
I live in the Fraser Valley, Spidra, about an hour or so from Vanc. It's easier to say I live near Vanc because ppl generally know where that is (once they realise you mean the one in Canada).
- WorldofHiglet
Rats, I just realized Hulu keeps out furriners. I think you can still use Hotspot Shield to fool it, though.
- Spidra Webster
An ex tried to get me into Firefly, and I couldn't get into it. Also Hotspot Shield doesn't work with Hulu. I've tried.

Well Micah, if you ever find yourself back this way, just say hello.

Ive been to Vancouver Canada ... love it ..
- johnpiercy
One of these days, I'm going to cross the border and go to Vancouver. This is obligatory. Not that Seattle's all that far away, but still it's not *Vancouver*...
- Dennis Jernberg
I drove from Seattle to Vancouver one night. When I got near the city the sky line was this wonderful green color. Really cool. Seattle was OK but I think Vancouver is a much cooler city.
- John Flynn
Sounds good to me, Cecily. We were frequent flyers at the Langley library. I declare Dec 10th as Hug a Random Librarian Day :) (((cecily)))

"The first bite was a satisfying mouthful. The bun, while not superior, was a serviceable commercial choice that had the sponginess that contained the burger. It also had a little grilling on it to add that extra layer of texture. The cheese was melted beautifully so as to provide smoothness without turning into a fondue. The onions were near perfection, as they had been grilled just into caramelization without losing their pleasing bite."

from Bookmarklet
Me too. I still don't fully understand my choices since "Old Settings" isn't all that descriptive.
- Rahsheen ™, Coach Rah
Im old .. so i just went with old settings
- johnpiercy
Agreed, Rah. I believe "Old Settings" was intended to mean "Keep the settings you had before," but since I had no idea what my original settings were, it didn't mean much to me.

@Shevonne - That used to be how things was, man. They're better now, but I still can relate to it quite a bit.
- Jeremy (cropmarks)
I have a hard time deciding which one mine would be. Metallica - Fuel, Nightwish - Planet Hell, Juno Reactor - Navras and Chevelle - Saturdays are all good choices
- Mo Kargas
Bubba of Arizona: I haven't heard that song in almost a decade !
- Mo Kargas
For myself, maybe Monty Python's Look on the Brighside of Life or Odysee by Scarf; radio edit of course. Maybe Disappear by Bullet For My Valentine. My December by Linkin Park is on the list as well. Hard to choose
- Schadenfreude
Either "More Than A Feeling" by Boston or "Sunshine of Your Love" by Cream. Has to have a wicked guitar riff for sure.
- Andrew Smith
This is tough, but "Forever Young" by Youth Group springs to mind ... there must be more though :)
- Penny
Don't Worry Be Happy by Bobby McFerrin ...although after a day of walking around with that, I would need a new song that talked about doing myself in.
- SAM
I'm going to go with two that pretty much describe my life and emotions in my opinion: Saves the Day "Under the Boards" and Angels and Airwaves "The Adventure".

nah. you'd stock up on bread and toilet paper like the rest of us, call it a snow day and spend all day reading. :D bonus if you have a fireplace.

Cut the crap. No you wouldn't. You're braver than you believe, stronger than you seem and smarter than you think.
- Jim Hearts FF
I'm trying to picture Derrick rocketing down a sledding hill. I don't think it's *quite* his style. :D I'm betting on frozen bitchlips.
- tinypants - Hagitha of FF
Leap out of the hot tub, roll in the snow and jump back in? Catch snowflakes on your tongue?
- MVB (Curmudgeon of FF)
Reading I could do, but my teeth are chattering in the 40F weather we have, and that's just walking to and from the car. Sledding? Snowballs? How dreadful. Have I mentioned I've only seen snow twice in my life, and it was melting both times. I've never seen it falling from the sky. I'd sooner seen unicorns. #bornandraisedinsandiego
- Derrick
Freezing? Nah. It is all about layering, which gives a great opportunity to enhance your wardrobe
- RAPatton
from iPhone
Oh, Derrick! The falling snow is truly magical! You must experience it at least once! (really. it is. this however does not include blizzard like blowing snow conditions. I'm strictly referring to the nice calm snowfalls)
- Nathalie, Dreamer of FF
I WOULD DIE PEOPLE. I don't even own a proper coat. :(
- Derrick
I actually slept in a knit cap last night. Did I mention our furnace is broken? I contemplated sleeping in the living room in front of the fire. And it was only FORTY DEGREES last night. And no blizzard. I'd clearly have to find someone to keep me warm. And he'd have sweater vests. :D
- Derrick
Have you looked at the weather in PDX lately?! :P
- JA Castillo
It's cold there, J, but it's not snowing. I'm used to rain. NOT used to being snowed in. o_O
- Derrick
Now, now, Mr Castillo. Things will shift and we will be right back on our temperate course just like always. Stop trying to scare Derrick!
- Christopher Harley
Also, in cold climates, you get extra snuggling in an effort to share body heat; just imagine this time next year, Tim Tenow's in his rookie season in Detroit or Cleveland and since he came from florida he brought only skimpy clothes with him. He'd get so cold Derrick and would need someone to warm him up, and I know we could count on you to ensure that Tebow doesn't shiver himself to death.

I can't vouch for sledding, but snow tubing is pretty damned awesome.

I want a snow storm. We just got really heavy rain instead. I feel cheated.

"Researchers were conducting a study comparing the views of men in their 20s who had never been exposed to pornography with regular users. But their project stumbled at the first hurdle when they failed to find a single man who had not been seen it. “We started our research seeking men in their 20s who had never consumed pornography,” said Professor Simon Louis Lajeunesse. “We couldn't find any.” Although hampered in its original aim, the study did examined the habits of those young men who used pornography – which would appear to be all of them."
- RAPatton
"Single men watched pornography for an average of 40 minutes, three times a week, while those in relationships watched it 1.7 times a week for around 20 minutes. The study found that men watched pornography that matched their own image of sexuality, and quickly discarded material they found offensive or distasteful. Prof Lajeunesse said pornography did not have a negative effect on...

I was going to say something similar, Sarah. Try the Amish, or maybe some Hasidic Jews?
- Laura Norvig
The Amish just keep it in the community, usually via sexual molestation of underage females, because they'll be treated harshly if they speak out. http://www.youtube.com/watch...
- Mark Jepsen
Headline is a bit misleading. This was an attempt to study 20 men, which were to be divided in two groups, porn-watchers and non-porn-watchers, and they simply couldn't find any to fit in the second group. Doesn't sound like they surveyed thousands of men.
- Louis Simoneau
"All men watch porn." ...although we only studied men in their 20s, we'll go ahead and assume that they represent men of all ages. Good call.

I've seen some good 'backyard critter' food mixes at the store lately (dried corn, seeds, etc.) that might be good for something like this.
- Jennifer Dittrich
We've got a privacy fence, so they couldn't see it. Also, this was between windows, so no looking out that way either. I realized this was the only snowless strip on the driveway. It's about 1.5 feet wide. The air exchange pipes for our furnace are about 3 feet from where the bunny way, so I think he/she is probably a smart bunny enjoying the warmer air coming from the house. I put out some corn, lettuce, and a turnip. I've got corn for our squirrel feeder.

I haven't been outside yet today. I'm going to shower soon and go out to shovel. Will check then. Today it's not a good day to be on that side of the house since the wind is from the west and it is wicked! We're getting below zero windchills.

"The folks at Rain Vodka gave us this original Martini recipe, created by bartender Sherri Flynn of Harry's Velvet Room in Chicago. This cocktail is sure to add to the festive nature of any holiday gathering. We do like the flavor of Rain Vodka which is made exclusively from organically grown grain, but you could substitute your favorite brand."

It is so amusing to me that Ice Cube and Snoop Dogg are the survivors of Gangsta Rap and are now thought of so positively. Snoop hasn't even really changed his persona. He's still a G.
- Jason Toney
I think it's because Snoop is just so damn chill most of the time. Even back in the day he was the coolest cat in the crowd. And he's so unapologetic about who he is and how he lives his life. That just makes him even cooler.
