It's not a non-sequitor! It's NOS very slowly starting to open the closet door to see if the coast is clear before he makes his big escape. Let's watch him!

NOS, you really need to learn to hold your alcohol better.

You're so homo. :AH-HA_wink:

NOS...why you looking at squirrel testes?

Don't forget the the $h!ty Turd Sedan...

Im definitely in the mood for another caramel macchiato...

You don't say!

For all the beer haters: Corona with a lime wedge. Can't beat that.

Are there any auto-starts for manuals on the market that work? I don't think any OEM does them yet.

This is too funny...I've only had positive Starbucks experiences. They built one right across from my HS at the beginning of my freshman year, and I got in pretty well with the employees. I got free drinks left and right and I always left good tips. Then their manager Kim left last summer...Man, those were the days. Now I go to a few different ones and have a good relationship with one of the baristas at one location, but it just isn't the same. Oh well, I still love their stuff. One iced tall non-fat upside-down caramel macchiato for me, please! ...and yes, I know that is quite possibly the longest drink they make, but it tastes so damn good.

classical music sends me into fits of rage. ditto for that one REM song that just goes on and on and on and never seems to end so you start hallucinating and swerving to hit small animals and realizing you are screaming at the top of your lungs for god to kill you now and then you finally change the radio station.

Yea so I'm gonna have to ask everyone something: if you're desperate for attention, crying wolf about a suicide is really not the best way for receiving positive attention. In fact, it is really annoying and immature. You didn't even get drunk. What was the point in posting what you did about an obituary? Seriously...this isn't entirely directed at you, but many posters including you need to take the melodrama and scale it back a few notches. kthxbye

"Image removed due to high bandwidth" can someone who saved it post it?

If possible, the personal language filters sound like the best option...I mean if someone is offended, they should be able to turn off what offends them...whether it be sigs or someone's potty mouth. On a side note...ehaase can you point me to some of Northstar's posts? Granted, this kind of thing clearly doesn't bother me...but usually I do have a subconcious note on the more...colorful...members and Northstar has never struck me as a potty mouth.

Hmmm this is a good point. As you may know I've been busy what with work, PT and teaching Vacation Bible School that I haven't been around as much as of late. If things have gotten markedly more crass then I think we should warn the offending members through PM to tone it down a bit, something like "we aren't really language police, and we don't want to be...but we will be forced to unilaterally enforce filtering if you and others don't tone it down a notch."Honestly I don't think language has really been a problem in the past. This isn't some wannabe 1950s utopia site anyways...

The points were brought up and I addressed them accordingly.

Ah, the moral superiority of not cursing...So here are the problems I have with your post: 1. You equate cursing to acting like a 13 y/o. Not cool. Not only is this just completely wrong on many levels, but a couple years ago one of the prominent ettiquette authorities reversed their prior position on cursing by saying that when used judiciously, those words are necessary for conveying strong emotions from time to time. 2. The overwhelming moral superiority of your post. If you don't curse, fine. But are on a crusade to change everyone else's behavior? 3. Schools block plenty of sites for the most arcane reasons. I remember Nintendo.com being blocked at my middle school. Why? Because it was not appropriate to be accessing that site in a learning environment as it had no educational or research value. 4. You assume that anyone who disagrees with you curses a lot. I for one don't... 5. School is not the optimal place to dick around on the net. I bet your administrators would be apathetic to complaints of C&G getting blocked.

Why is this being discussed? We should have better things to do than police and NetNanny our fellow members. Also, here's a thought: since C&G is a very community-oriented site, why should we worry about NWS stuff? Now, I definitely think threads or posts should have NWS disclaimers, but most of that stuff is in the Lounge anywayss...and if you're at work you really shouldn't be dicking around in the C&G Lounge. Honestly, unless your monitor also projects up onto the office projector screen for everyone to see, no one else should really be seeing this stuff. I don't think filters are necessary and I don't see anyone cursing much...also "ass" is not a curse word. It might have vulgar connotations, but so do many slang phrases that use perfectly acceptable words otherwise...as far as I'm concerned, BV loves donkeys and Satty mentions pink tacos as part of some promo gimmick by a local place for breast cancer awareness month. Hey, if Einstein Bros does it to their bagels, Taco Cabana Hut can do it for their greasy tacos.

I kinda like it. Will wait until I see it in person for final verdict.

I think he was just joking...no need to get all defensive about it though...i mean right? right? NO?!?!?????? Sweet Jesus...

You forgot American Beauty, too.

TOOT TOOT!! What's that I hear? Why, it's the Josh E. Oliver horn a-tooting!
