OneOfManyParticipant
QB, do you mind if I ask why you think seminary shouldn’t exist? I promise to to argue with you about it – I just want to know.
OneOfManyParticipantIt’s not chulent, it’s not alive, it’s not aluminum, diamonds, gold, nickel, lead, zinc or copper, it’s manmade, it does not grow from the ground, it has electronic components, it’s not green, it is tangible, it’s used for general-purpose use, it sometimes is (and sometimes isn’t) larger than a 2 liter soda bottle, it doesn’t have a screen, it doesn’t have audio output.
Basically, we’re looking for some sort of consumer electronic equipment, with no screen or sound (so probably for task-oriented vs. entertainment use), that comes in different sizes.
OneOfManyParticipantAffordable Terra Chips? NOW we’re talking. 🙂
OneOfManyParticipantOhhhh, that’s bad. 🙂
OneOfManyParticipantPaging zeena.kasta. 🙂
OneOfManyParticipantC’mon, no one else wants to play?
OneOfManyParticipantlol, it’s great, crazybrit.
QB, shall we start a petition? 🙂
OneOfManyParticipantWolf: He’s a troll (by his own admission).
OneOfManyParticipantSOY ice cream? What does that even mean?
OneOfManyParticipantHow does it make sense to have bubble-gum flavored bubble-gum?
OneOfManyParticipantmore: Is Sushe not a litvish name?
OneOfManyParticipantC’mon, that’s just lame…there were so many good ones…
OneOfManyParticipantUm…what?
OneOfManyParticipantDoes it have audio output?
OneOfManyParticipantSnow! Yay!! 😀 😀 😀
OneOfManyParticipantNo no, that’s a good answer.
Does it have a screen?
OneOfManyParticipantIs it larger than a 2 liter soda bottle?
OneOfManyParticipantWell, my Rogue would STILL pwn your Jean.
February 8, 2012 10:17 pm at 10:17 pm in reply to: Memoir called "Unorthodox" and its effect on us #868408OneOfManyParticipantsoliek, I saw and liked what you wrote…just trying to avoid this thread (failed, I guess).
OneOfManyParticipantWell, I could never figure out why Rogue couldn’t control her power. Obviously, they had to do that to make the story believable, but I never got how it fit into cannon. So MY Rogue would be able to assimilate and retain all and any abilites at will (WITHOUT the pesky memories), so she’d ALSO be a telepath who could combat Jean. And everything else, of course.
But apart from abilities, you have to admit that Rogue is sooo much cooler. Jean is just so perfect and bland.
OneOfManyParticipantI don’t think #8 was necessary, but okay.
supergirl613: Is it used by consumers/for general-purpose use? (As opposed to scientific/military/whatever sort of equipment.)
OneOfManyParticipantMmmm, marmite.
I think this is a good one because it really is definitive of both parts of your SN. 🙂
Mod-42, we know you’re out there…
OneOfManyParticipantYeah, well why didn’t she do that to the Juggernaut (in TAS)? *busted* Anyway, before she could even get the chance, Rogue would drain her life force and karate chop her into oblivion and blast her with optical lasers and…
February 7, 2012 9:01 pm at 9:01 pm in reply to: Ami magazine article on Mormons baptizing Jews #850752OneOfManyParticipantWhy would anyone get mad at Ami for publishing such an article?
OneOfManyParticipantWIY: All that you’ve mentioned above is NOT making kids “dumber” – it’s just cultural conditioning. I really don’t think that texting or Facebook or whatever reduces a person’s actual mental capacity. And you can’t attack the kids for whatever apathy or intellectual slovenliness they may have – it’s not even a conscious decision on their part, so that won’t do any good.
OneOfManyParticipantBumpity bump.
OneOfManyParticipantOh, don’t even go with the hair…not a chance! And c’mon, it’s so easy to subvert to telepathy – all you have to do is wear a metal helmet. But how could you defeat a power like Rogue’s?
(Can we totally argue all night? :D)
OneOfManyParticipantAny machinery? Like a piece of paper (not mechanical or electronic) vs. a compass (mechanical)?
OneOfManyParticipantDoes it have any mechanical/electronic components?
OneOfManyParticipantThis is probably a dumb question, I don’t know…but what did they upset?
February 5, 2012 10:12 pm at 10:12 pm in reply to: Do you have and use a separate Chalah board and or cover for Yom Tov? #849445OneOfManyParticipantBut what happens when the material is full of holes?
OneOfManyParticipantJust out of curiosity, what does any of this have to do with the size of the Earth?
OneOfManyParticipanthee hee
OneOfManyParticipantIt’s funny how some of the greatest novelists have written some gems of non-fiction that nobody goes near. For the hikers here – I think I liked “The Salmon of Doubt” even more than the Hitchhiker series.
yitayningwut: Mencken the monkey guy? lol
OneOfManyParticipantNice (esp. the second example :D).
OneOfManyParticipantNew rule: You can only use a question on a guess if you’re really, really sure that it’s it. Otherwise, we’ll never get it!
Is it manmade?
OneOfManyParticipantIt’s flat and it’s round and it’s carried on the backs of four elephants. On the back of a giant turtle.
OneOfManyParticipantThe only reason her power isn’t better is because she can’t control it…otherwise, she would be completely invincible. They had to give her some sort of failing.
OneOfManyParticipantcrazybrit: Oho, I see. 🙂 So it isn’t a thing to have this strictly English pride?
sam4321: I like history. Is it anything like R’ Berel Wein’s books?
OneOfManyParticipantHey, the mermaids in HP are cool! And sorry, Rogue totally pwns Jean. 🙂
OneOfManyParticipantToi, those books are the just the best. And for all those who think otherwise, you should try them. Seriously. (Except if you’re REALLY a pedant. Then you won’t like them. 🙂 )
I like “Anguished English: An Anthology of Accidental Assaults Upon Our Language.”
OneOfManyParticipantOf course, you would, you Brit… 😛
By the way, something I’ve been wondering for a while – I have some English friends, and they can’t stand being referred to as British – they’re ENGLISH. Is this a national thing, or just something they made up?
OneOfManyParticipantThanks, sam. What sort of book is the codex Judaica? SG – what yitay said. FTR, I did do a search to see if there were any threads on non-fiction already. But alas. 🙁 yitay – thanks, I’m not really looking for any specific something, I just want to see if anyone else likes non-fiction and what they like.
I’ll say mine – I absolutely love “How to Lie with Statistics” by Darrell Huff. I think it’s actually my favorite book, novel or non-fiction alike. And William Zinsser’s “On Writing Well.” Also “The Book of Where: Or How to Be Naturally Geographic” by Neil Bell and “The Stars” by H. A. Rey (although they’re both kids’ books, I think they’re better than a lot I’ve read).
Anyone ever read these or anything similar?
OneOfManyParticipantMmmm, marmite.
OneOfManyParticipantBah, pseudorandom. *geek fail*
OneOfManyParticipantAre you trolling or do you really not know the answer to that?
OneOfManyParticipantOh, thanks Mod-42. 🙂
OneOfManyParticipantIs it alive?
OneOfManyParticipantShakespeare.
OneOfManyParticipantThat’s very nihilist of you, squeak.
