they must do it late at night or really early in the morning -- it's usually fresh when I'm leaving for work at 7:30am

bleh

chasing after them with the baggie is a good idea. Part of me wants to set up a webcam so I can catch them in the act

Yeah sometimes those (not always though), but more like bike shops and really specific shops with "customizing" options

Am loving "naturestrip"

I've also done the chasing them down thing with litterers, provided it isn't something too disgusting to touch. Most often, and I really have only done this three or four times, its when someone drops a coffee cup on the ground in a parking lot.

naturestrip sounds like a personal grooming choice.

That's putting VG's initial post in a whole different context...

Mom's dog Willie the Poodle shits in the neighbours' front yard all the time (generally while visiting the neighbours' Bichon Frise) and she doesn't always remove it. Neighbours finally got their revenge by placing one of Willie's shits on the roof of her Cadillac.

the store name Bare Escentuals makes me so IA. you are not allowed to fit TWO portmanteus within the same word. it's like they couldn't decide between Bare Escentials and Bare Esensuals so they just said FUCK IT and went with both. i hate it. if you're going to do that, might as well go all the way and call it Bear Escentuals and then make all your candles or perfume or whatever in the shape of a bear.

Also Bare Escentuals products don't even smell, they're powders so why jam SCENT in there in the first place

The way Billy Joel says "dintya" for "didn't you" in "Big Shot". I've heard it on the radio a couple times recently and it drives me up a wall.

Likely one of the biggest stans for Billy Joel here (he and my son share the same middle name), but you're right. It was Never A Good Look on his part when he went all fuckin' mooley in his singing.

He probably shouldn't have sang that one song in French either.

Do we need a "Things about Billy Joel that make you irrationally angry" spinoff thread?

No. We have now listed the only annoying things about Billy Joel.

i could fill up a "things about that one billy joel song that make you IA" thread

I suppose you could fill up an irrational thread...

"The beginning of 'Goodnight Saigon' reminds me of Vic Morrow. Joel even looks like Morrow a little bit. I AM IRRATIONAL.", etc.

Whoa I always thought he was saying, "you had to be a big shot, did ya" not "you had to be a big shot, dintcha," even though the latter makes more sense.

So my wife and I missed the most recent season of Dexter and we decided to watch it on DVD over the last couple of weeks. Each of the four discs in the set forces you to sit through this little preview thing for Showtime, one of those montages with clips from their original shows and big films, that you can't skip or fast forward through. Anyway, the like 10 second clip they show for Dexter just happens to be a scene that, if you've been watching the show in the past, you know has the potential to be a huge plot point for the entire series. When it first popped up, I looked at my wife and said, "I sure hope that isn't a spoiler for like the end of this whole season". Ugh, sure enough it was the exact last ten seconds of the final episode of the season. Like, why the fuck would you put a scene like that in the teasers at the beginning of the disc that you can't skip over?!?

That's awful, but then that season of Dexter was total LOL/smdh.
