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.
Okay, I can't stick around but I was informed of a Leif incident and had to share.
"I asked Leif what it was going to take to get him to quit throwing things and hitting Emaryn. His answer? "Lots, and lots and lots and lots and lots of gallons of water." I said, "You mean if I make you drink lots and lots and lots and lots of gallons of water then you will stop doing that?" "Yes," he said."
From the intelligent carpet link:
The carpet can determine a walker's gender with 70-80 per cent accuracy, the inventors claim, since males and females have different centres of gravity.
Dude. I consider my center of gravity to be very personal....
Who is Sandra Lee and why do I hate her?
This actually isn't to point out the story, but to get some slang clarification.
From a blog entry I was reading:
State Department investigators have found that the head of the agency overseeing most government broadcasts to foreign countries has used his office to run a "horse racing operation" and that he improperly put a friend on the payroll, according to a summary of a report made public on Tuesday by a Democratic lawmaker.
What's a "horse racing operation"?
That's not slang.
t pokes tommyrot
What does it mean???
I'm guessing a horse racing operation refers to illegal betting?
That show is the most appalling thing on TV! We were just talking about it at work yesterday! That lady is BANANAS.
How come no one told me of this!
Who is Sandra Lee and why do I hate her?
Because's she looks/sounds like one of those blonde Fox news commentators (for which Anne Coulter seems to be the prototypesire), and has a show that's basically the equivalent of Rachel Ray's except her use of pre-fab ingredients involves more work than starting from scratch rather than less, perhaps?
Sandra Lee: [link] This is the kind of thing she always makes. I bet it would taste pretty good. But you can't use fresh potatoes? This is a large category of her recipes: Food I would eat, and like, but be embarassed about.
She always uses a seasoning packet of some kind, and looooooves cookie mix.
She also always makes a cocktail at the end of the show, even the ones that are supposed to be "parties" for her "niece" and "nephew."
I had her show on my DVR for a while but decided I really had to stop watching it every day just so I could shriek.
Who is Sandra Lee and why do I hate her?
Because she has a "cooking" show in spite of the fact that she is clearly and visibly disgusted by any contact with food.
