I know, Nick, but it sort of falls flat when you're just plain wrong.

Compared to the other stuff I read on the Internet (political blogs), things aren't very pedantic at all around here. Most other forums I read are like Bill O'Reilly transcripts in terms of conversation.

hey peepz, I'm working at a better job now where I can actually use the internet. I'm just checking in to see if I'm the only one going to see ESG tonight. This is going to be the JAM! Someone else must be going, right?

Oh, I agree with you, John. I thought saying "pedantic" and "easy" and "snarky" made it clear that I though this person was taking cheap shots. I mean, it's not great English but it's the Internet, so who cares. Also, even if the sentence is poorly constructed, he said he's looking for someone who can "speak good English," not necessarily write proper English, so even the thought behind the criticism is valid if we're going to be all pedantic about everything.

I don't look like Steve Carell.
There's only a couple other people here today, so now I'm listening to my i-tunes. I got no lips I got no tongue!

Wow, I wondered if Joel Fleischman was dead. He looks less dorky than he did in the 90s, but don't we all.
Who's the other guy? He was in the Ice Storm, right?
― Jordan, Friday, 21 September 2007 16:45 (sixteen years ago) link
Oh, I guess they're both on some TV show called Numb3rs?
Rob Morrow looks more like me here:

IMdB tells me he was in The Ice Storm, but I don't remember him. I was going to say, though, if he wasn't in The Ice Storm, he should've been.
He also played Neal's older brother in Freaks and Geeks and Natasha Lyonne's brother in Slums of Beverly Hills.

So, interesting that David Chase produced both Northern Exposure and The Sopranos, two shows with entire casts that may never be seen again.

In the Ice Storm he was Peter Parker's college roommate, the dude who would bang all the girls he liked (incl. Katie Holmes) and who Spiderman tried to drug.

Client call @ 10:40 AM Client: I really need this site plan for a Tuesday meeting, can you have it to me by end of Monday? Me: That might be a little tight, we are really on a tight schedule with a couple other things, but I should be able to get something to you Monday. Client: Great.
Same client @ 10:55 AM Client: I forgot about the contractor needing to look at that site plan so I'll need it by noon on Monday. Me: Alright, I'll shift some things around and get it to you by then. Client: Sounds good, sorry for the lack of notice.
Same client @ 11:45 AM Client: You know, actually I need that by early this afternoon. I forgot my guy is leaving early today to head for his lakehouse. Me: FUCK YOU RICH DEVELOPER ASSHOLES!

<i>Were you stuck on the top bunk or the bottom?</i>
a friend of mine has this story about rooming with a fundamentalist christian her first year at northwestern. the roommate made a rule about NO BOYS in the room, which was fine by her (she likes teh gurlz). at some point the roommate decided that she wanted boys around after all, and so my friend found herself trying to sleep one night with giggling and a creaky mattress above her...and then she was hit in the face by a flying pair of dirty panties.
i was reading the quiz from earlier and wondering if you had to add up each time you remembered having done something, in which case you could have some impressive totals.

I think my (gay) freshman year roommate had a no girls policy, except he never actually said it. I think he just held it against me. We didn't really get along.

There were no girls in my room all through freshman year, although that had nothing to do with any roommate policy.
