You need re-education camp, STAT. OK, so we just watched The Wrestler. Mickey Rourke was robbed. Robbed of an Oscar. Seriously. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
20thStDad Posted April 27, 2009 Share Posted April 27, 2009 You're kidding me, right?? You need re-education camp, STAT.No really. I find most Who songs annoying or goofy. I don't know that many Guess Who songs but the ones I do know are sweet. Maybe it's just one of those things where I disagree with everyone else. Like Phil Collins. Apparently lots of people like him but I think he's the worst thing to ever happen to humankind. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KinkaidAlum Posted April 29, 2009 Share Posted April 29, 2009 Question.I'm searching for a google image of a certain type of house but don't know what it's called. They sort of look like a donut (but square). Think of the dough as the living space and the hole as an outdoor space; could be a garden or just grass, whatever. And the "hole" normally has a porch lining it also. I should probably know this, but I don't.6226 Valley Forge 77057.My family lived here from 5th grade until I graduated high school. No windows facing the street at all. The front door was a huge wooden one that welcomed you to the interior courtyard. The interior courtyard was in a U shape with windows and french doors all the way around it. Lots of light and privacy. One side of the U was formal living/dining/kitchen, one side was a bedroom wing and the other a bedroom/playroom. I really LOVED this house. From the street, it looked rather ugly but it was such a great place on the inside. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lockmat Posted May 19, 2009 Share Posted May 19, 2009 city-data has a policy I don't like.I created a thread asking if anyone knew of a forum that is Detroit based, about Detroit. A mod emailed me saying it's not allowed to request links for other forums and it was deleted.Is this typical of most forums? I just looked over HAIFs and didn't see anything about that in the policy. I don't really see what the big deal is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rsb320 Posted May 19, 2009 Share Posted May 19, 2009 I have no idea. Remember last week, I questioned you on me linking skyscraperpage to here for the Perennial topic. I don't know what my concern was based on, I was just unsure if it was ok. Maybe someone with better knowledge will pipe in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, I could understand your concern, but in the end, I can't figure out why it's such a big deal. I guess they don't like competiton and don't want their audience to leave.

While I haven't been edited, I might as well be, as the number of intelligent debaters who don't take everything personally has dropped to nearly zero. We'll sorely miss your elitist asshattedness.
