Good news! I like CVS.

Wait. Did we already talk about the fact that there will be a gigantor Walgreens competing with it? We talked about these matters separately, but it seems like there will be a face/off at some point.

Oh, guess what? The place where Dominick's burned down and will never rise again (3050 N. Broadway)? It's going to be home to a Mariano's!

i'm thinking about it! i'll decide by the end of the day.

La Lechera, Tuesday, 10 January 2012 15:59 (1 year ago) Permalink

I'm not in for trivia.

the Smurf who'll snatch your money (Je55e), Tuesday, 10 January 2012 16:09 (1 year ago) Permalink

so the people possibly in for quiz are me, john, eazy, and maybe amanda? i'm feeling kind of headachey right now so i'd be ok with waiting for a week with better topics but i'll go if everyone else does. i do want to go soon though, i miss pub quiz.

congratulations (n/a), Tuesday, 10 January 2012 17:03 (1 year ago) Permalink

I would go next week. I'm broke today.

the Smurf who'll snatch your money (Je55e), Tuesday, 10 January 2012 17:04 (1 year ago) Permalink

i could go next week too

those topics aren't really my cup of curly fries

La Lechera, Tuesday, 10 January 2012 17:05 (1 year ago) Permalink

I'll go either week. But Nick can't go next week b/c he's playing that show at the Bottle.

oh :(

La Lechera, Tuesday, 10 January 2012 17:08 (1 year ago) Permalink

not in for pub quiz this week as I have made the thoroughly adult decision that I must be in bed by 9:30 tonight. I will then use pharmaceuticals to get myself to sleep.

the emancipation of distraction (askance johnson), Tuesday, 10 January 2012 17:10 (1 year ago) Permalink

well let's just go some other time then. i think the ice hockey category would kill us this week, unless dan could come.

congratulations (n/a), Tuesday, 10 January 2012 17:15 (1 year ago) Permalink

it is attractive but there is a mountain of laundry in my house that ain't getting any smaller and tonight it goes DOWN

La Lechera, Tuesday, 10 January 2012 17:28 (1 year ago) Permalink

I should sell my playwright knowledge to the random trivia table that buys me dinner.

Cheap desert locations (Eazy), Tuesday, 10 January 2012 19:41 (1 year ago) Permalink

I'm disappointed about no pub quiz tonight. :(

But laundry is a pretty good idea.

I can't stop sneezing and one time my ex boyfriend had a friend who sneezed so much he sneezed a hole in his lung and is this going to happen to me???? I sneezed while writing this, btw.

Jenny I think of your username several times a day whilst calling denizens of the Raleigh-Durham area.

All credit due to Amanda, who encourages us all to replace "Cleveland Steamer" with "The Old Fuquay-Varina."

Oh no....the little crab! I was so scared that the doofus Dane was going to get his nose pinched!

hahahaa

Je55e, Wednesday, 11 January 2012 04:34 (1 year ago) Permalink

I had no idea Great Danes were such doofuses. The one w/ the tub at the beginning is a fave. And the one freaked out by the DVD screensaver.

they are doofuses like you wouldn't believe, also droolers

after watching the video I have to say I hate seeing them with pinned ears, their normal big floppy ears are so great

bomb.gif (dan m), Wednesday, 11 January 2012 05:06 (1 year ago) Permalink

Yeah. Pinned ears seem really awful all around.

I stopped sneezing! Now I can't stop coughing! I hate everything!

You need to bee dictated - ha auto correct - MEDICATED.

Je55e, Wednesday, 11 January 2012 13:26 (1 year ago) Permalink

You should be medicated, and often, and by someone who knows how.

I just watched that video again and now I kinda want to start a great dane thread, but I'm afraid it'd just turn into me posting pictures of Vonn and I can do that on fb already

bomb.gif (dan m), Wednesday, 11 January 2012 16:03 (1 year ago) Permalink

it's more fun to post pictures of one's dog here
trust me

dogs are great dogs dogs dogs moar threads about DOGS

Je55e, Wednesday, 11 January 2012 16:09 (1 year ago) Permalink

that is a great thread of dogs in general doing hilarious things but I was thinking more dane-specific

although this dude is way awesome and much much bigger than Vonn

dogs are great dogs dogs dogs moar threads about DOGS

Sorry, I didn't mean to just toss that link in without saying anything.

I was just FYI'ing you.

Je55e, Wednesday, 11 January 2012 16:22 (1 year ago) Permalink

This is more appropriate for the Skokie MMXII thread, but: in another thread, I recommended

to Jesse. Good food and the best people-watching anywhere.

john, i am listening to your best of 2011 spotify list. i like that you included fucked up. do you like the album?

To quote that video, "Meep!"

Nick, the album as a whole is a little wearying, but I like a handful of tracks from it. Even though I'm no great fan of hardcore-style vocals, I have a lot of time for darting, interlocking guitar lines.

Bon Ivoj (jaymc), Wednesday, 11 January 2012 16:53 (1 year ago) Permalink

I love those babies <3.
