NOTE: I am not making any value judgement on this stuff, just the fact that it exists is enough for me.
No codeine, no credibility.

I'm doing the LA times crossword.

I'm doing the Highlights crossword.
― Jesse, Wednesday, 5 December 2007 21:33 (sixteen years ago) link
I did that one today. Also 2 Ben Tausig puzzles (at Metro Times and AV Club) when I had some downtime at work, which used a fair amount of the same answers.

I'm having fun on the pizza thread. Pizza turns people into assholes, I think, but that's fine.
― Jordan, Wednesday, 5 December 2007 21:35 (sixteen years ago) link
The roads, at least around here, are completely fine now - even some of the side streets that were a bit treacherous this morning. The sun and traffic has gotten rid of pretty much all the ice/snow on the roads.
― jon /via/ chi 2.0, Wednesday, 5 December 2007 21:36 (sixteen years ago) link
God I have made way too many pizzas to be on that thread. When people started talking about how they liked their pizzas constructed I was all thinking no, no, no, NO, NO.

Oh good, Jon. I haven't been outside since this morning. I'll still have to scrape snow off my windshield, though.

jaymc-- i know liz through the wedding website that she and sarah and i were all on. we met last xmas to have a champagne and cupcake tasting at my hotel.
jesse-- you could go to volo, especially on a monday (half price wine bottles), it's dim and cozy and not stupidly expensive.
― colette, Wednesday, 5 December 2007 22:27 (sixteen years ago) link
A-ha! We went to high school together. Now I'm really bummed I can't make the party -- I haven't seen her in about a year and a half.

I had one of the best lunches of my life yesterday at a place that fits Jesse's description (actually, Napa and Sonoma Counties are full of places that fit Jesse's description). It's called Market and it's fancy at dinnertime but they have a lunch deal of soup/sandwich/treat that was so so so so delicious.
I think expensive restaurants with high-value relatively inexpensive lunches are the best thing, besides a good heart and empathy and stuff like that.
― Eazy, Wednesday, 5 December 2007 23:30 (sixteen years ago) link
I made an awes sandwich for dinner the other night: Tofurkey, havarti, tomato, arugula, avocado, and hummus on wheat toast. Delicious.

(oh, and J, I did win that Scrabulous game -- I was thinking that I would be about 5 points short.)
― Eazy, Wednesday, 5 December 2007 23:36 (sixteen years ago) link
So what would've happened if I'd played WET and you played GEL and we ended up tied at 345? Would I have been able to keep playing tiles?
― jaymc, Wednesday, 5 December 2007 23:40 (sixteen years ago) link
The game ends goes on until either of us runs out of tiles, and whoever has tiles left has the remaining points subtracted from his score.
― Eazy, Wednesday, 5 December 2007 23:43 (sixteen years ago) link
(cut 'ends')
Hmmm OK. At least I got a bingo, finally.
I think I'll stick to constructing crosswords, though, for linguistic kicks. A couple times in the games I've been playing in the last week (you, Kelsey, and Kenan) I've had the tiles to make hyphenated words like IN-LAWS or fun proper nouns, and of course neither of those are legal, but bullshit like AE is. Kind of dumb.
― jaymc, Wednesday, 5 December 2007 23:49 (sixteen years ago) link
do you get the big fake turkey tofurkey, or is there like lunchmeat version as well? i've only had it once and would like to try it again.
― colette, Thursday, 6 December 2007 01:31 (sixteen years ago) link
the tofurkey deli slices are pretty good, better than the smartlife (?) ones. i bet that's what he's talking about

So I just had to make a short run to the store in what my computer tells me is ten degrees -- sorry, once more with proper emphasis, ten degrees -- and I promised I would have a new expletive when I got back. I came up with: "Colder than a dead man with his dick cut off." I do not know if this will catch on. For one thing, it doesn't make much sense. And yet, in an abstract way, it is powerfully evocative, and appropriately foul.
Jesus, it's cold.
― kenan, Thursday, 6 December 2007 05:14 (sixteen years ago) link
colder than a witch's tit
I just caught a ride home from the bar that is 4 blocks from my house.
It's not really that cold though, the ride was just convenient (thx April).
― dan m, Thursday, 6 December 2007 05:22 (sixteen years ago) link
I think Dan just called me a pussy. I think I shall be offended!
― kenan, Thursday, 6 December 2007 05:29 (sixteen years ago) link
Kenan, if I was going to call you a pussy I would have said, "Kenan, you pussy".
I really just wanted to use the witch's tit line.
― dan m, Thursday, 6 December 2007 05:34 (sixteen years ago) link
Surely a dead, dickless man is colder.
Especially if it's ten degrees outside.
― kenan, Thursday, 6 December 2007 05:36 (sixteen years ago) link
Colder than a breast that's been suckled by Satan himself?
