Random Thoughts That Don't Deserve Their Own Thread Go Here
 
Mantracker is an awesome show.

Cosplay is a word I don't know the meaning of.

I love blackbox for windows more than almost anything.

Seeing fat people helps me stay motivated to work-out regularly.

I once cried at the beauty of a full moon rising while driving to work.

I fully expect great success from this thread.

That 50 Chicken McNuggets for $10 wasn't really the good idea to order and eat it seemed to be at the time.

Groundhog 05-12-2010 08:45 PM

The word 'moist' sounds like what it describes.

Schmidty 05-12-2010 08:50 PM

The stinging nettles in my backyard are like evil ninjas poised to unleash their venomous barbs upon my exposed elbows and shins.

Drake 05-12-2010 09:04 PM

Four indoor dogs is at least one too many, no matter how small they are.

Pumpy Tudors 05-12-2010 09:19 PM

I'm done.

QuikSand 05-12-2010 09:23 PM

I know people have a global greivance with the concept of diet soda. Fine. Not the point here.

The point is -- who the fuck puts 5 grams of sugar (and 6 grams of carbohydrates) into a diet soda? (See diet orange crush)

BYU 14 05-12-2010 09:29 PM

I hate the Red Sox

I want one more season of the The Shield

Interesting, since I know what cosplay is (at least the general concept) but have no clue what "blackbox for windows" is.

Dodgerchick 05-12-2010 09:35 PM

Heroes Season 4 was easily forgettable.

I have a secret crush on Shakira.

These goddamn fruit flies are pissing me off.

Drake 05-12-2010 09:37 PM

I would pay a monthly premium to have someone come around my house once a week and fill the gas tanks in my cars so I wouldn't have to stop at the gas station.

I'd be willing to pay extra if they'd top off the lawn mower.

Drake 05-12-2010 09:39 PM

On campus the other day, I saw a young woman with the most perfect ass I have ever seen in my life. She was talking to her dad on the phone, and it dawned on me for the first time that her dad was probably a guy my age.

It made me feel creepy in a really sexy way.

Groundhog 05-12-2010 09:46 PM

I have an irrational dislike for people who watch LOST and post about it in their Facebook status updates.

I have the same beef with Propel.

Pumpy Tudors 05-12-2010 09:56 PM

I almost burst into tears every time I see the clip of Joe Sakic handing the Stanley Cup to Ray Bourque. Nothing in the world chokes me up faster than that.

Completely unrelated, but I saw Bo bo McCalebb playing in the Euroleage final 4 the other night. Dude is quick.

ColtCrazy 05-12-2010 09:58 PM

My neighbor's wife makes a point of constantly posting things on facebook that she does on a daily basis "going to Wal-Mart, playing with the kids". Sure, I could ignore her, but instead I come up with sarcastic posts to counter what she considers important news.

I find facebook morbidly fascinating and highly irritating simultaneously.

larrymcg421 05-12-2010 10:01 PM

I don't care how much science is behind it, but the "your steak should be the size of a deck of cards" has got to be the most ridiculously irritating thing anyone has ever said to me.

Let me rephrase this. I DO burst into tears sometimes when I see this clip. I just watched it and I'm crying for the first time in months.

I hope he gets to play on an NBA summer league team. He's really small for a SG, but I hope somebody on this side of the ocean gives him a shot.

Do you ever post things back like "I saw you through your back window when you were doing that, you looked nice," or "You took exactly 51 minutes inside Wal-Mart, I know because I was in the parking lot timing you," and things like that in a general creepy way?

Drake 05-12-2010 10:11 PM

I miss being 25.

Isn't that what diet is? Less calories than the original?

This is cosplay:

Draft Dodger 05-12-2010 10:27 PM

I'm going to miss Gene Hunt

Drake 05-12-2010 10:33 PM

I was recently made aware that there are "vast numbers" of women out there who honestly believe that their husbands never think of anyone but them during sex and consider the very notion of it the equivalent of being cheated on.

This blows my mind.

Watch season one of Archer.

JS19 05-12-2010 11:28 PM

Long story short..

Told a friend I was gonna watch some shows on my DVR then it's lights out...
Convo leads to what the phrase "lights out" means...
He takes it literally, as in the lights will be turned out and subsequently go to sleep..
I told him he's on crack, I've never heard someone take it like that...
To me, and what I thought was the rest of the world, "lights out" indicates I'm gonna knock the eff out, as in i just took a straight right to the jaw from Brock Lesnar

MrBug708 05-12-2010 11:39 PM

I love Sam Adams Summer Ale and wish it was served year round. I hate the Sam Adams Lager though.

Meg Whitman is not attractive

Izulde 05-12-2010 11:39 PM



Another example of cosplay.

And Lights Out can mean both things, depending on context, although I'm most familiar with it as your friend interprets it.

I'm confused by this story. You're saying you told your friend you'll watch some shows, and then "lights out"... you couldn't have meant you're gonna go kick the crap out of someone after watching some shows? So you're saying it's bedtime. But then you say your friend thinks it means bedtime and you think it means kick the crap out of someone?

Negative... perhaps I worded it poorly. We both had the same general idea, that I'm going to sleep. When I say lights out, I mean it as I'm absolutely exhausted and I'm gonna pass out, as in I just got knocked out. He thinks of it as you are literally gonna turn the lights out and fall asleep. Same idea, I know, just different interpretations.

larrymcg421 05-12-2010 11:50 PM

Well I think it's actually the same thing. I've never thought of the "going to sleep" version meaning literally turn the lights off. I always assumed lights out = "nothing going on upstairs". Whether it is because of being knocked out or just generally falling asleep seems irrelevant.

I hate it when I stumble while walking near a window, and for a second my brain is like "OHFUCKI'MGONNAFALLOUTTATHATWINDOW!"

cartman 05-13-2010 12:06 AM

One of those perfect moments in life:

I was driving across the plains of eastern New Mexico back in '92 around 3am. Pink Floyd's "Great Gig in the Sky" was playing, and there was an awesome lightning display from a thunderstorm out in the distance.

SteveMax58 05-13-2010 12:43 AM

Overly cutesy kids in movies piss me off.

had a similar moment flying into Syracuse during a snowstorm while listening to Zeppelin's In The Light.

Danica McKellar is still smoking hot.

MJ4H 05-13-2010 06:50 AM

For the record, I have seen many examples of cosplay. I still don't know what the word means. Nor where it comes from and why it is used instead of "dress-up" for example.

cosplay = shorter version of costume play

I think one of them is a Justin Bieber.

This probably deserves its own thread, and it's not really a random thought...well fuck, I think I'm in the wrong thread.

Subby 05-13-2010 09:36 AM

Twitter via Tweetdeck has revolutionized the way I consume the web. I can't remember the last time I watched the news.

Mustang 05-13-2010 09:40 AM

I miss sunshine punch Kool Aid, marathon bars and chicken tenders from Burger King.
