    1. complains about the clutter in the garage.
    2. says she wants to have a garage sale.
    3. brings home more random stuff that her grandmother was going to throw away.
    4. puts it in the garage.
    5. complains about having to sort/price stuff for her garage sale (which likely wont happen for another 6mos).
    6. complains about the clutter in the garage.

    We just had the Salvation Army out to take as much crap from the garage as possible.  Wife went to all the trouble of sorting things and putting price tags on things and even got a permit for a garage sale.  It rained that weekend and we never got motivated to attempt it again.

    This is a scam. The handwriting does not match, unless someone else at the table wrote the note on top. It does not match the writing at the bottom. I am a trained hand-writing expert from another job, and this is not real

    The comments are pure gold.

    Not a bore at all.  This stuff is frustrating and interesting and love to hear your perspective.  There are so many takes and so many questions.  My favorite is the role that South Dallas black city council members play in all this, often voting against their constituents' interests.

    Their own interests are well taken care of.

  4. never done a water cooled CPU.  But normally you will want some thermal grease between the CPU and the heatsink.  Arctic Silver is what i remember using last time i built one.

    If you are not overclocking your CPU you probably don't need the water cooling.  I used to work for AMD way back in the day and the promotion/tradeshow guys would use water cooling to overclock the hell out of the display systems.

  5. those people that were waiting outside the fucking mall in a line stretching back that far should have their children taken from them...before they are shot.  don't want the kids to see that.  

    Seriously, most had to know it was not worth it and i would bet my life that 98% just wanted to post on social media about the big 'score' they got that day and how happy it made their kid. If they were selling kidneys for $35 and I just woke up in a tub of ice with a note saying call 911,  I would not wait that long in line.  That's what favor is for.

  6. I don't really understand the game mechanics having never played, but what's the etiquette on getting that last letter?  Were the couple in post #52 actively playing or lurking?   Why would they stop playing if so close?

    To your first point, business models should never be confused for values. I bet there are more than a handful of halal or kosher businesses out there that aren't run by strictly Muslim or Jewish entities. Money knows no race or religion. If it sells, someone will be selling it.

    To your question, because it was probably a marketing firm that was hired by The Domain to do the research. They were selling themselves just as much as they were selling their research. But someone is losing their job over this getting out.
