Just a word to the wise if anyone uses IAMs cat food: I was concerned about RubyRoo because she seemed to be eating less than normal, then I discovered that the bag of IAMs cat food had some pieces scattered throughout that were weirdly colored and looked "not right."

"Just Missing******* is not right or wrong in any moral sense but it is impossibly awkward. The paradigmatic example is the guy who is handsome, clever, and well-built but, at the same time, 5 foot 7. Every grad school class or large corporate office has one of these dudes. He is secretly obsessed with his looks and all the cute girls platonically flirt with (but never date) him and even though he is vaguely cool and caddish he somehow doesn't seem to have any close friends and deep down you suspect he is miserable."

from Bookmarklet
This is funny, but does this describe (even in colorfully exaggerated form) the world anyone lives in? The stereotyped barstool dating scene always seems like a foreign country to me, possibly because I'm in a local evaporation pool of hypernerddom. I'm never sure just how mainstream the mainstream is -- nobody I know lives like that, but you see crowds of dudes and dolls spilling out of bars who are clearly unlike anyone I know.

Oy. That made my head hurt and yet there's a little bit of truth in it...and I'm saying this as an LA girl. I have too many female friends who have fled SD or LA for SF because, as they say, "Real women" are appreciated in SF. Apparently, San Diego women are all athletic blonds and Los Angeles women are all waifish brunettes and in San Francisco they have a fighting chance. One woman...

- Admiral Anika
Also, I think that a lot of SF-based women are a little too eager to beat you over the head with their education. We get it. You're smart. But what's unattractive in ANYONE is someone who talks like a freshman philosophy major. Broaden your horizons. On the flip, too many women in LA tend to play dumb. Why? Because a lot of the dudes here *are* dumb. The smart ones tend to move to SF. LOL
- Admiral Anika
There was no appreciable difference in dating success for me when I was in LA vs. in SF. It sucked in both places.
- Spidra Webster
You know...it also saddens me when women who lived in SF move to LA and you watch them become airheads over time. It's like they lose all their interestingness. I wonder why that happens.
- Admiral Anika
ⓞnor, you could go out to the bars 'n' clubs and see how the other side lives.

#fact The male to female ratio is so unfair (female advantage) there is an influx of big headed females with crappy attitudes for no other reason other than they get hit on. I repeatedly tell my gfs to get out of the Bay Area bubble for reality checks. Perhaps then, those crappy girls will learn to appreciate the Bay Arean single males. Frankly, I feel bad for them. :\
- Mona Nomura
Huh. I've heard that the ratio skews heavy towards males in Silicon Valley but the other way in SF itself.
- Andrew C
I was just in SF in Sept., and it was still 10 dudes to one female. Put it this way: if you are female in an establishment with alcohol and males, you will be hit on at least once. At least.
- Mona Nomura
@Mona, It sounds like you were in The Castro?
- j1m
Mona, I never had that experience, even when I was younger and svelte. :( Guys often say women have all the power...just wanna say that it never felt that way to me. Mona, I think you have this experience because you are a beautiful woman. (You have other great qualities as well, but beauty is what guys in bars focus on.)
- Spidra Webster
The Bay Area is the biggest ego boosting area to be in, if you are female and single because of the male to female imbalance - that's my rationale and I'm sticking to that!
- Mona Nomura
I'm not sure that I'd for sure name it best (it's kind of unfair to compare all different sorts of TV shows together in one category), but it's certainly the one I return to over and over and over again. (Too bad not all of the seasons were of equal quality, though.)

Part of the impact of West Wing was the marked contrast between Josiah Bartlett's administration and the real-life version under Bush and Cheney.
- Mark "DerBingle" J
That may account for some of its popularity, Mark, but I think West Wing was popular for what marks a lot of Sorkin shows: excellent dialogue, fantastic mix of comedy and drama, supernal ensemble casting...and the extra for West Wing was being able to geek out over all that governmental stuff. The dialogue was so thick with it that repeat viewings reward you. Takes several times seeing an ep before you really feel you've gotten everything out of it.
- Spidra Webster
Without looking at other answers: Homicide, particularly the first year.
- AJ Kohn
First season of Miami Vice... unfadeable baby!
- Adrian
The West Wing was so awesome I remember bit characters. Like the guy in records or something who had the best line ever. "Well you're a strange little frumpy man, aren't you?" Of all the series I've loved, this one lasts the longest.

better than TWW: Arrested Development, Futurama, Veronica Mars, The Simpsons (uh, stopping somewhere between end of season 9 and season 12 at the latest), 30 Rock, Community, and Newsradio. Action, Pushing Daisies, and Life, too if we can sneak in those shows that were "cancelled before their time". Buffy up to S5 but not past it. Esp considering the relative doldrums of TWW s3 - s6.

That's easy, 24 and X-Files are far better. :-)

Rome series 1, BSG reimagined, Sportsnight, Buffy, Farscape, Magnum PI, Red Dwarf, Thundar the Barbarian, Underdog, M.A.S.H., Password, What's My Line?, I Love Lucy, The Carol Burnett Show all rank pretty high with me. I'm sure I missed some. Loved West Wing in doses, but it became taxing for me to watch.
- Michael W. May
West Wing is a tough show to compare shows to. As far as must watch TV: Damages, Flash Forward, Rescue Me, Dark Blue, Fringe, Lie To Me... This would be easier if I was near my DVR!

The West Wing might be my FAVORITE series but I think the BEST series was The Wire.
- Akiva Moskovitz
Good show, but best ever? Don't think so. The Wire and Rome, for instance, are way better. Heroes Season 1 (only), Kings, The Black Donnellys, Babylon 5, New BSG before season 4 are some more. Andrew C names a bunch more that I agree with.

I saw a clip. It showed a person being cowed into standing for the president. That was enough for me.
- SuezanneC Baskerville
What does cowed into standing for the president mean?
- Mona Nomura
intimidated - one is "supposed" to stand up when the president enters a room, at least according to the show. it's a statist ritual, like singing songs of praise to governments. i find it offensive.
- SuezanneC Baskerville
Respect != intimidation. Besides, what's wrong with showing respect to ranked officers? POTUS is the Chief of Staff.
- Mona Nomura
If one has to rise for a judge in the courtroom, it doesn't seem outré to rise for the President. However, *staying* standing until excused is something else.
- Spidra Webster
Also members of the military - it never occurred offensive to me, so I'm trying to understand why.
- Mona Nomura
Respectful. It is a privilege to be in the same room as the president. Similarly, one should act the same way around the pope, the leader of our church, or foreign dignitaries for whom custom expects it.
- Louis Gray
It is respectful for the office, not the person - always stand
- Jesse Stay
Agreed with LG. Although I would stand for any respectable person upon first meeting or upon them entering the room. To stay seated seems disrespectful to me.
- Rahsheen ™, Coach Rah
Any nay sayers? Trying to understand the opposing view.
- Mona Nomura
I've always believed the President is "first citizen". There is some respect attached to the office, but what makes America great is that he is my employee. He's just a citizen we've elected to head our nation for the next 4 years. He's not a king. That was supposed to be the point.

"US parents who triggered a major alert by claiming their son was adrift in a helium balloon have been ordered to pay the $42,000 (£26,000) rescue bill."

from Bookmarklet
"Richard Heene has admitted attempting to influence a public servant. Mayumi Heene admits false reporting to the authorities. Although the charges are punishable by jail terms, it is expected they will receive probation orders. Mr Lane said the Heenes cannot afford to pay the $42,000 bill."
- Kelly
Seems totally appropriate to me. Sending a bunch of rescue personal off on a wild goose chase (involving land and air, no less) is fraught with potential hazards.
- Mark "DerBingle" J
If they can't afford to pay, then in jail they go. That's the way it goes. Cue Sammy Davis Jr. "Don't do the crime if you can't do the time..no no no"

David - yeah, you can get an early start.
- Rick Cogley
Rick, I am not good at lists or #followfriday but there are lotsa good people in this thread.

the thing that strikes me about this (aside from the obvious) is after seeing this thing pop up like 35-40 times since March its just occurred to me that I don't have any (guy) friends that a) would lick my nipples b) would lick my nipples for a photograph. Maybe I should get out more...
- J. Abdul-Qahhar
I'm a little scared that I've this has gotten more than 800 comments and almost 200 likes over nearly five months and I still haven't clicked "Hide."
- Scott of Two Countries
It's just a bit of fun. I mean watching how many comment, not the picture content (although I suspect that is all that was too!)
- Ian May
Allright, you guys ready to shoot "mirth and girth"?
- Rick Cogley
For the life of me, I'll never understand the emotion people have around this picture for or against. There's no nudity at all, not even implied nudity. Less dude nudity than a beer commercial or cigarette ad, yet there are people who really really really hate this picture.
- Matthew DeVries
I found a way to get a Tit Theme, and it involves this picture.
- Jimminy Fuller
Hahahaha! It's like a telethon. And after Joey Bishop goes off stage, they flash this picture on the screen. "Won't you think of the CHILDREN?"

I just had to bump this once more... gives me a whole new excuse to go look at Phoebe again!
- Mark "DerBingle" J
Hmmm, where do you think they're from? My guess is Japan...
- sofarsoShawn
The bumping algorithm includes things like novel people posting to it, in addition to thread age, and rapidity of comments. If the same 3 people are talking in a thread, it quits bumping because it's obviously a closed tea party.
- Matthew DeVries
I forgot, also you're a very handsome guy(saw the wedding images), I don't understand why you don't like to share your face. Rochelle is a lucky lady.
- Jimminy Fuller
Jimminy, it's an irrational phobia. No different than people who are afraid of heights, spiders, clowns, or Canada.
- Akiva Moskovitz
Akiva, now I'm LMAO at the fear of Canada. People are actually afraid of Canada, or just the fact they don't know if they're British or French?
- Jimminy Fuller
I don't think even Canadians know that difference.
- Akiva Moskovitz
If Friendfeed had sound .. this thread would be all licks and slurps
- Mattb4rd
Sorry Akiva, I think it was the display picture.. I have known male and female Akivas.. Oh and by the way guys I am not afraid of Canada LOL will be there this weekend.. Dave Marie von Ebner-Eschenbach<http://www.brainyquote.com/quotes...> - "Even a stopped clock is right twice a day."

I popped the 666 cherry and I will get 1000 also.
- Jimminy Fuller
If it gets to 1000 will Akiva lock it so it can sink from our feeds forever? Please?!?
- WorldofHiglet
I think locking this post would be un-FriendFeedian.
- Jason Huebel
This is the immortal post everyone who uses the service must see it so WoH it just wouldn't be good to lock it.

Not everyone see's it, only the people with true class do.

It is now September 1st, and this has not reached 1000 comments. I am sorely disappointed. Yet, for some reason, I am uplifted by the smile of this young man, who was fortunate enough to have such great friends that fateful day on the beach.
- Josh Haley
Quick let's add some comments... Gee that guy on the far left is not really getting into the swing of things is he?
- Travis Koger
Travis... bear in mind that we don't know what "main chubby guy's" right hand is doing, or where it's doing whatever it's doing...
- Mark "DerBingle" J
BUT WE CAN INFER WHAT "MAIN CHUBBY GUY'S" HANDS ARE DOING. BOTH OF THEM.
- Sparky
@Mark, of interest (well not really) is the location of Front Left guy's left hand.
- Travis Koger
The photo of Akiva in the jacuzzi with the Texas A&M cheerleaders would be so much more popular. Now if only someone would post it.
- Christopher Harley
Noooooooooooooooooooooo! Posted March 1st and we are still enduring the wrath! "Akiva's posts, now with more staying power than ever before!"
- Nicholas Kreidberg
YAY! OVER 1000 COMMENTS BLAAAARGBLBLLB
- Josh Haley
It feels like Groundhog Day whenever I see this.
- Andru Edwards
Except that unlike Groundhog Day this is AWESOME!

This thread was how I discovered Akiva. ROFL... Y.M.C.A.! BUMP BUMP BUMP BUMP! GAZE AT IT! DON'T LOOK AWAY! >:O I SED DON'T LOOK AWAY!!! ... ^_^
- Danny Minick
You have nothing to fear - I never look away.
- Sparky
On Fark, there was this one thread, that just kept growing and growing. On Fark, it was a single page per thread. And you could post images and gif inline. Well the thread wouldn't die, people just kept posting. I forget which one it was. Anyway, it got so monsterous, that few people going to read/post to it per day (which was only a handfull) accounted for 1/3 of the server load of the site. They eventually had to cull that thread.
- Matthew DeVries
I think everyone who has participated in this thread has 'culled' themselves privately.
- Akiva Moskovitz
What with all the copycat images this has inspired I hope our muse continues to stick around and not get lost in the shuffle of so many knockoffs.
- Sparky
SHUT UP SPARKY!!!!!!!!!!!!1111111!!!!
- Andru Edwards
I refuse to shut up about the glory that is this thread. REFUSE.
- Sparky
Yes, Vezquex, I'm jealous of those guys, it is warm there, nothing like a warm beatch..
- David Gross
from email
Yes, Sparky, they do not know how good they have it there frolicking on the beach while we freeze up here.. Hard to believe it is only 49 degrees, feels like 29.. I bet it's at least 85 degrees on that beach.

Anyone who doesn't appreciate this thread is clearly not developing a FriendFeed iPhone client because this is a great stress test case. (It crashes BuddyFeed, by the way.)

Also it exercises the crap out of your thumb trying to scroll down to the bottom of it.

Do you need to appreciate the pic in order to appreciate the thread?

If I un-collapse this thread, will it break my computer?

Every time this thread gets a bumped, god kills a kitten
- Matthew DeVries
Matthew, you may have given some people more reason to keep bumping this thread.
- Victor Ganata
How does it give you thumb exercise? Whatever you're doing, why don't you either use the keyboard or switch to Linux so you can middle-click the scrollbar to jump to where you want? :P
- Tanath
actually this thread does not bother me because I get it in email and gmail groups them and starts new thread after every 100 comments. I have it autoarchived so I do not have to see on phone lol and just see when I look at my ffeed label in gmail.

disgusting? HOW DARE YOU, SIR! That is j-love! and it's beautiful (in it's own way.. a way that shouldn't be seen in public)
- Kyle Johnson
this is probably the most popular feed of 2009 in FF. lol.
- Bora Mesut PALAS
I think the one where Robert Scoble gave away money easily beats this one, but this post has staying power. ;-)
- Jason Huebel
I think that Chinese at FF post was a marriage proposal thing. They were all trying to bump the guy's photo so that it would be the first thing his girlfriend would see when she logged onto FF.
- Kamilah Gill
On the first day of Christmas my true love gave to me, 1 salty beach, 2 pairs of glasses, 3 lords a licking, 4 chubby men, 5 santa hats(O_o), 6 rolls of fat, 7 ????, and 8 moobs to view.

I made it! Most influential British Twitter users revealed - Telegraph (UPDATE: wow - thanks so so much guys. Can't believe the love i have on here.) - http://www.telegraph.co.uk/technol...
well done, Zee! Glad you're ahead of Peter Andre....:)
- WorldofHiglet
Hi, Zee ! je vais de ce pas jeter un coup d'oeil chez les Britons ;-)
- Desirade
zee - gifted followers = default list/suggested user list - when a media outlet reports on "x account has y followers" it's almost like there needs to be a notation that they were given the followers as a freebie.
- Allen Stern
Strange enough, the link to the PM's wife's Twitter page isn't direct; it's <http://go.telegraph.co.uk/...>...is this done to possibly track the number of clicks or something? All the other Twitter accounts listed are direct links
- Itachi
i thought that everyone has agreed to used "listed" as the new 'count that matters' -- there's more of a meaning to listing someone and there never was a suggested list... however... the more followers you have the more chances to be listed there are ( i guess )
- Chris Heath
Heh, nvm, seems it was a bug on my end. The link does take you to her Twitter page, but while I was mousing over the links I saw the go.telegraph.co.uk link and was a little perplexed why they had that there. It's gone now after a refresh
- Itachi
wow - thanks so so much guys. Can't believe the love i have on here.
- Zee.
Mazel tov, Zee! You're one of my tech favorites on here.
- Akiva Moskovitz
Big Congrats Zee ,, all your HArdwork is paying off
- johnpiercy
Now don't let it go to your head and start thinking that services need to bend the way they function to your will and don't start ripping services when they can't perform to insane, unrealistic, and just plane silly standards.

In Seattle, there are tons of Facebook Dev Garages - maybe I should go to the next one and plug you ;)
- Mona Nomura
Thanks Mona! While you're there if any of them want contract work I am looking for Facebook devs to work with me on a contract-by-contract basis. Have them send me a resume if they're looking for work - it could be pretty regular. :-) I love referrals on all fronts!
- Jesse Stay
They're all bad links - even if they do load, Ankush. What are you trying to do?
- Louis Gray
Sorry Louis... I guess my sense of humor is too crass and/or elastic for this particular context. I'm really embarrassed I think and trying to recover from Jolie's reaction and your response last night :-( Please convey my regrets to her as well.
- Ankush Narula
Google translate extension works great on FF too.
- Eric Logan
Akiva ... once again ... use chromium and you have extensions
- Rasmus Lauridsen
Is this built by Google? Or did someone hack this together? They said it wasn't ready for standalone use on the announcement the other day...
- Kevin Mohr
Way to step it up, there CW! Thanks! Thanks, joey. I really like this pic, too. :)
- Josh Haley
btw, Trish is still asleep. She and I (mostly she) were up almost all night with sick baby Zoe, who wouldn't stop crying. Trish is the best. THE BEST, I TELL YA!
- Josh Haley
Happy 15th Josh and Trish. You guys are the best couple I know (other than Mom and Dad....and Tom and Katie....and Ren and Stimpy). Congrats to you both! Good job raising 4 great kids too!
- Morgan Haley
well, 3rd best actually, when you count dad and the groom....well, maybe 5th best when you throw in some of the other guys....but i was skinny and had long hair, which was nich.
- Morgan Haley
or nice, if you are a stickler for spelling....
- Morgan Haley
and isn't it quicker to type '2' thank <3'?
- Morgan Haley
I'm awake! Laughs and good times, indeed... Zoe seems fine this morning with none of the tearful monster in sight. Thanks for all the congrats. Josh is still cute after 15 years and will be in 15 more. I love you, Honey!

Josh - what's that stuff on your head? :-)
- Morgan Haley
Caption this photo time! Josh: Dude, take the picture....Trish: I need to make toffee brittle and send some to Morgan! Happy 15th you kids!
- Morgan Haley
Dude, you were kind of a badass back in the day with your Hawaiian print and Jurassic Park cup. What happened? ;-)
- Jason Huebel
Still got the Hawaiian print and the movie-themed cups.
- Josh Haley
HAPPY ANNIVERSARY! We're only a couple of years behind you (our 13th was last month). We'll catch up eventually, though. ;-)
- Jason Huebel
You two are such an amazing couple -- and who in the world is that smokin' hot dude on the left! ;)
- Mona Nomura
Ha! That's the dude I had to fight and kill to win over Trish. ;) Thanks, Mona
- Josh Haley
You and Trish give me hope that there is such a thing as happily ever afters :) All you need is a sense of humor and tons of love. Thanks for sharing your lives with us and happy anniversary!
- Mona Nomura
what's amazing is that they really are happy. like clams. like really happy clams. and it's pure joy silly happiness. this couple, along with their wonderful 4 kids, are proof that this world isn't doomed yet. i am lucky to be linked to these clowns. keep it up josh and trish. show the world that it really will be ok in the end. much love. and tell the kids that uncle morgan says 'shut up!'.
- Morgan Haley
Everyone has hope. And Lennon was right: All You Need is Love! (And persistence and a minivan and ear-plugs and a huge grocery budget...etc.)
- Josh Haley
By Josh's response........... I feel like I have been lead astray by this translation site...
- Johnny Worthington
No, it's all good. You said "Bottoms up" which I will admit, I don't hear very often even in English. But `okole is an automatic laugh word for me, since it means BUTT, BOTTOM, REAR, ASS. *giggle*
- Josh Haley
To Josh-n-Trish, Happy Anniversary, you crazy kids! <3
- Micah Wittman
We are having Sonic blasts now. It's cold enough that the perishables in the back will last. FYI Morgan, the ingredients for toffee butter crunch are in the back, too. You deserve a million bucks, but you'll have to settle for yummy candy. Thanks all!
