The Container Store is going to be the issue that will finally tear CHILX (and possibly my marriage) apart.

I was going to say that Nick's response is a typically guy response, but I don't even think that. I am pretty sure that Jeff is into it as well.

and is also comparing it to 'the lion king on broadway'.

Well, this isn't so weird since they're both directed by Julie Taymor. I'm kind of interested in it insofar as I'm a sucker for high-concept films, but I can also see myself completely hating it. I disliked Moulin Rouge, for instance.

And Kenan.

Jesse, Tuesday, 18 September 2007 15:24 (sixteen years ago) link

Never been there, but I've driven on the Skyway often enough to know that that area isn't all that attractive.

we should ALL pollute there!

I haven't been to the Container Store in years! It seems pretty cool, though.

jaymc, Tuesday, 18 September 2007 15:25 (sixteen years ago) link

the thing is, i NEED boxes

river wolf, Tuesday, 18 September 2007 15:25 (sixteen years ago) link

I
I was at The Container Store
You were there
Two worlds collided
And they could never tear us apart

I really want to post that youtube link again, but I just can't.

Nick and Sarah: FIGHT IT. Don't fall prey to the suburbs now that you're married. It doesn't have to be that way!

Jesse, Tuesday, 18 September 2007 15:26 (sixteen years ago) link

yes, do! I don't think I remembered to bookmark it.

Oh we are not moving to the suburbs, Sarah is just crazy.

House for rent in Whiting is less than our rent now. Of course, you aren't in Chicago.

xposts... Ahhh, I see.

That IS a beautiful and tempting piece of land!

Jesse, Tuesday, 18 September 2007 15:29 (sixteen years ago) link

NO! NONONONO!

Jesse, Tuesday, 18 September 2007 15:30 (sixteen years ago) link

I could not in all good conscience discourage anyone from living there. It's lovely.

kenan, Tuesday, 18 September 2007 15:32 (sixteen years ago) link

This is more my style.

The word "bungalow" just sounds cozy.

kenan, Tuesday, 18 September 2007 15:36 (sixteen years ago) link

Someone sum up the underage sex thread for me. I just can't be bothered today. *sigh*

kenan, Tuesday, 18 September 2007 15:37 (sixteen years ago) link

The concept of characters like "Strawberry Field"...not for me.

The solution to the overperfumed is a sharp counterpunch with Febreeze.

Plenty of bungalows in Chicago once you get west of, say, Pulaski. The neighborhood where my grandma lived, in Elmwood Park, just a few blocks west of Chicago, is like all bungalows all the time.

Summary for Kenan: "The defendant spent far longer than was necessary to pass the Sambuca from his mouth to the girl's."

KitCat, Tuesday, 18 September 2007 15:46 (sixteen years ago) link

Why is it so early? I'm frickin' starving.

KitCat, Tuesday, 18 September 2007 15:47 (sixteen years ago) link

I ate a brownie.

n/a, Tuesday, 18 September 2007 15:49 (sixteen years ago) link

I'm bored.

KitCat, Tuesday, 18 September 2007 15:52 (sixteen years ago) link

So I heard Feist's "1,2,3,4" in about three different places yesterday. I think it is the licensed/store-muzak song of the year.

Eazy, Tuesday, 18 September 2007 17:10 (sixteen years ago) link

it has been raining constantly today and my accuweather widget says it's sunny & 76. i guess it's less-than-accu.

i'm mostly annoyed b/c i need to exchange some knitting needles and i melt in the rain.

sweet tater, Tuesday, 18 September 2007 17:15 (sixteen years ago) link

Kels, get a house custom-made like those people who can't ever be in direct sunlight: a canopied back yard, a portico that shields you until you get in the car/to your destination, very deep eaves, covered porches, etc. Special needs, mang.
