'Out Of Gas'
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
they had a little girl on the playground doing Krav.
Ooh! Was she doing it in self-defence, or just practicing? Was she relevant to the plot?
Why is Blue Mountain coffee so damn good?
Because of the Island Magic™.
I have gotten little good swag--but my krav bag is from Compaq and gets used all the time. Most of the rest is T-shirts in XL. Whoohoo, guys. And pens. I don't mind pens, especially if they do cool things like light up.
Oh, I saw that one... Reese got kravved on Malcolm once too.
Usually car swag is mugs, keychains, tire gauges, or hideously ugly t-shirts, so the iPod is extra exciting and cool.
Ooh! Was she doing it in self-defence, or just practicing? Was she relevant to the plot?
Practicing. And she was in that she was on the playground when it got shot up, but betond that, I don't know. I changed the channel.
When my dad was in town, he gave me some swag from his department (he was here for a major conference.) He was goofy about it. So I now have an NMSU astro dept magnet and pen. He's trying to find (and convince purchasing) something more interesting, like squishy aliens or something.
I work for a software company and haven't gotten a T-shirt for a couple of years. That's just not right.
Our biggest client builds offshore oil rigs. I've gotten a lot of swag from them, including a clear acrylic paperweight with about an ounce of crude oil in the middle. It was celebrating the millionth barrel of oil from some oil field or something.
It's cool. I'd never realized how "dirty" crude oil looked.
Since I quit the bookstore, I haven't gone to BookExpo America. Now, there was some great swag! I usually averaged 150-200 books over three days (many of which were crap, but I did get Cold Mountain before anyone had heard of it), plus lots of quirky doo-hickeys, including the rubber chicken that's hanging on my cubicle wall here at work.
I think on SVU Krav Lady was a witness. On Malcolm a girl kravved Reese so hard she got him to say "My body is made of snot!"
I used to get swag in the form of basball caps or nalgene bottles emblazoned with manufacturers logos. I still have quite a bit of it, as it's useful. Not worth being in sales to get, though.
Somebody gave me a squishy brain from a neurology conference that is probably my favoritest swag ever.
My favorite coffee cup swag was the set of 6 coffee cups my dad got from a management communication seminar that said Σκασμοσ και ακουσε , because without them I would not know how to say "Shut up and listen" in Greek. Though for years thought it was Egyptian.
