Saw a new to me FR-S commercial last night. Ended with the car blowing up in a ball of flames.

Must be taking a cue from Microsoft by turning the worst liability into a feature.

Used to be with DOS and Windows you'd have to use the famous Three Finger Salute (Ctl-Alt-Del) after the unreliable heap dropped down the toad hole.

M$ decided since we're all giving them the fingers, they'd MAKE us do it every time we're forced to use it.
Gah!

I personally thought it made the most sense! Tracy was set up to die at the end of season 8, when Ted goes to her apartment in a "hypothetical dream" thing and asks for 45 more days with her. So it was almost definite that Ted would end up alone.

And Tracy is first introduced getting over the death of her boyfriend, which took her years to get over, eventually moving on to Ted, so it only made sense for Ted to do the same six years after her death.

And as much as everyone hates it, Ted never said he stopped loving Robin, so then being together at the end made the most sense out of any outcome.

I can't disagree with you about the logic of the ending, but it was just too predictable for my taste, it's just seems like the ending everyone would have expected from the series, which doesn't normally suite me.

It really means it should have been "How I Met Your Stepmother".

Some of their watches are nice, but some of their entry level watches are just meh. I have one watch from Nixon that I'm thinking of selling. I'm hesitant to sell it though, because its 1 of 1.

i need to try this.....

Quote:
Okay, gather around and listen up...

Brew coffee
Let coffee cool
Replace filter and coffee grounds with new filter and new coffee grounds.
Pour first batch of coffee back into the coffee maker.
Brew AGAIN
Lift off

Let me tell you people something. I work nights and needed a way to stay energetic. I finally found the answer...

I just drank "double brewed coffee" and I feel like I can throw an orange at 60 percent the speed of light. Do you realize that if I had a boomerang right now I could kill god, eat his meat, and use his hide to stay warm during those long nights on the savanna? ENERGY. After drinking this special coffee I suddenly find myself triangulating coordinates and shit in my mind. I'm pretty sure if I was a floating head that I'd be able to float directly to the Bermuda triangle without stopping for directions. I have so much energy that I'm now watching half hour long sitcoms in just seconds!

You ever notice that they don't have any type of Karate for German shepherds? If dogs learned to focus their chi, just imagine how screwed we'd be? Well, I wouldn't be screwed, but you most certainly would be. Right now I could probably fight off a giant ghost flamingo made entirely from ninja stars and tasers. In fact, I'm about 85 percent certain that I could mess up a 2003 Nissan Altima, if it were to suddenly become self-aware and hostile towards me. ENERGY.

I have so much energy that I can multitask more stuff right now than your lazy ass will accomplish within the next 4 months. While I type this I'm also filming a remake of "tango and cash", done with puppets. Simultaneously, I'm also updating my match.com profile while dry humping a zebra and skiing.

And guess what? I just squeezed a New York steak with my bare hands and crushed it into individual calories! I am the ghost of Jim Varney and I will haunt you into infinity! I am the one that inspired the "blade" movies and I will triumph! I am the singularity, the way, the light, the man who can turn a normal visit to the zoo into a multiple felony getaway vacation to the andromeda galaxy and I don't take crap from anyone!!

If you want to lay around until you morph into a giant stick of butter and explode, that's your choice. But if you want so much energy that you could morph into a cybernetic plasma cheetah and beat the living sh*t out of the power rangers then I suggest you try "double brewed coffee". ENERGY.

I can't even begin to describe how grateful I am that I get four full days of long weekend to study for Digital Signal Processing. Worst. Instructor. Ever. I honestly think English is his four or fifth language.


Have you started exams yet?
