The funniest ad just popped up on this site! It was advertising "findyourlovershere.com":

(in a pink font affecting a slightly careless cursive)
"What do young, attractive men really want?"

"Women like you."

"findyourlovershere.com"

This popped up on the multiculturalism thread; no idea why it thought someone viewing that thread was likely to be A) a woman, or B) a particular type of woman, let alone what type of woman that is, but there you have it.

When I didn't have an ad-blocker yet, I always got either creepy second life ads or 65+ datingsite ads...
The most bizarre ads are those that pop up in religious threads by the way.

Never too soon to start planning for the future...one way or the other

**Mari** · 08-11-2010, 05:57 AM

Well, though I do have a date set for August 1st, 2042, I don't intend to plan anything else that far ahead.

Gwaimir Windgem · 08-11-2010, 03:17 PM

And, like that, I am off for Californee! By way of Dallas no less; is this as omen about my planned application to UD? O_o

***Tessar*** · 08-11-2010, 04:31 PM

Have a great trip!

Dang, I am super hungry and I just ate a big meal like... two hours ago. I wonder if it's all the working out. I gotta say I am -loving- the High Intensity Interval Training. I'm only halfway through the second week, and I'm seeing more dramatic results than I did out of any of my previous workout efforts. I think the HIIT is way more effective than what I was doing before... I'm really happy with how it's working for me.

**Mari** · 08-11-2010, 04:52 PM

Have fun Gwai! You can wave in my general direction from the plane...

I promise I'll wave back!

I got the Dallas reference, but I wikied UofT at Dallas, which got this.

Quote:

The University of Texas at Dallas[Note 1] (also referred to as UT Dallas or UTD) is a public research university in The University of Texas System. The UTD main campus is located in Richardson, Texas, United States in the heart of Telecom Corridor. The institution began as a research arm of Texas Instruments established in 1961 as the Graduate Research Center of the Southwest and was renamed the Southwest Center for Advanced Studies (SCAS) in 1967. The rapidly growing university is now known for its computer science, natural science, engineering, cognitive science, mathematics, and MBA programs, also the translation studies and Holocaust studies.

which seemed a little ...off.

Looking again, the first line is not to be confused with the University of Dallas

That makes more sense.

Fortunately there are Dr. Who and Händel and Mahler.

I've started going through the old Dr. Who shows - Drs. 1 - 9. Fun! *blows a kiss to Netflix*

Do you guys generally like Netflix, or is there something better?

Ahhh, the kids started school - now I'll get some quiet time to Moot again!

katya · 08-12-2010, 05:38 PM

I generally LOVE Netflix. I'm not currently subscribed but have been repeatedly through the years.

Gwaimir Windgem · 08-12-2010, 06:55 PM

Best selection and best service; I haven't used them for a while, since they don't do Canada, but when I land state-side, I'll probably pick it up again fairly soon.

***Rían*** · 08-12-2010, 08:00 PM

ok, thanks for the input - the Moot is a great place to sound out things.

**Mari** · 08-13-2010, 04:09 AM

I have no idea what netflix is, but the things I don't have myself, I just watch online. We have a fast connection and there are things of very good quality to be found online, so that's no problem.

It's like an online movie rental service, I think.

Can't.... eat.... enough.... food..... to satisfy.... body.... >.<

Seriously, I am stuffing myself silly here. WHAT UP, BODY? These workouts are apparently kicking my metabolism into major overdrive. Today I woke up, ate, and then an hour later I got the 'low blood-sugar shakes' so I ate some more. Then about two hours later I ate more. It's a vicious cycle.

katya · 08-13-2010, 11:20 PM

I came across someone I used to like a lot when I was in 7th grade or so on Facebook. He was a few years older than me. It was probably my first real infatuation. Judging by his profile picture, he no longer looks like a heavenly being. Now he has too long of hair and an ugly beard and is holding a big fish. It's such a shame.

Isn't it sad when old crushes turn out to be WAY LESS crushworthy than you used to think? It's like a cold, brutal disillusionment. O_o

Close your eyes...

**Mari** · 08-14-2010, 07:52 AM

My neighbour is back from vacation. Free piano concerts!

(My neighbour goes to a music academy. He's really quite good and practices a lot with open windows in this weather)

Acalewia · 08-15-2010, 08:10 PM
