Hes the guy who was in that 70s show - Stepan Mazurov

You aren't missing much. He's an actor that got his start on "That '70s Show", a sitcom set in the 70s. He's since made some movies, most of which are completely missable. - Alex "Maverick" Scoble

that's pretty funny, Robert! was she like "you're the guy who said all the websites sucked, right?" lol. I tease, I tease - Marshall Kirkpatrick

His movie "Butterfly Effect" was more entertaining than I expected. I'd give it a 4/5 on Netflix. - Daniel J. Pritchett

He's one of the people behind "Beauty and the Geek". Gotta respect that. - Nina Jansen

He's a good comedian and seems more clever than most of recent Hollywood vintage. - Sprague D

he's probably best known for his MTV reality show punk'd though. either way, he's a kid married to demi moore. i'm sure you know who she is. - Lynne d Johnson

One simple letter could make this sentence sooo wrong... Can you find out which letter I'm talking about? And where to put it? Hint: its a vowel! :P - Ricardo Vidal

No, can't guess, I'm really bad an word puzzles. I do far better with logic :-) - Nina Jansen

Is it replacing an "s" with an "a" ? Am I warm (red) ? - Nils Reinton

Nope, it's an E... and it would be placed in between a T and an S. But Nils suggestions is just as funny/wrong LOL - Ricardo Vidal

Re: Fragment cache expiry from background jobs is a hot mess

"The problem I have with gibberish is that I want my templates to be human readable. In Globalize you use the ".t" function, so you just write a normal sentence and use the sentence itself as the key for translation. In Giberish, as I understand it, each string gets a key, so you cannot look at the template file and easily see what text is actually there. I might be wrong, though, and I am always looking for enlightenment." - Nina Jansen

"I'm not on 2.1 yet, but thanks for the tip. I want to move to 2.1, but globalize in standing in the way right now. I am hoping that globalize will either be patched or that I find a better alternative." - Nina Jansen
