The bright side is that if a thread gets moved out of FFA, it now shows up on the main page under the recent topics widget. Soit's like an extra spotlight or something on your thread about Olive Garden.

Yes and hopefully it's possible to avoid the malls. Because to tie it back to the OP topic before I throw it off the rails, we were at the mall last night and the mall on a weekend in December is not the place to be, unless you like mobs of people and wear comfortable shoes, because it's going to be a while.

Little of both?

I get my sister video game stuff because it's something I know and know she'll appreciate, and every once in a while there's something specific I think of for a specific person, but this isn't really the best family to get one adult something and no one else anything. Well, the family actually does a secret santa grab bag every year to streamline things, once you hit 18 the adults stop giving you gifts and you're added to the pool. Everyone draws a name on Thanksgiving and we open one at a time on new year's, and you get three guesses as to who picked your name and got you the gift. Which sounds like a fun thing, but I'm entirely sure the grab bag started before I was born and/or before I can remember and half the people got sick of it 20 years ago, but it still happens because the people who are hardest to shop for still want to get gifts they can return.

I spent way too long trying to think up a semi-witty comment about misspelling "idiot" until I got it

Definitely this. But I am really bad on gift-giving no matter the holiday. My extended family has always been big on the obligatory gifts and big on the cost value, as if the gift is how good of a deal you can get on the thing they're probably just going to return, so what even is the point.

That's the cost of maintaining a full-time fleet. Uber revolutionized with the part-time, flexible fleet, but the way they lobbied states to create a part time commercial insurance product that was intentionally too expensive for any company other than Uber and Lyft to afford was just shameless, and that's the real reason why they're swallowing up the market.

We're looking for sassy, not salty

You def look like a big real baller

@Gina Szanboti he said a thing you might have input on, also come snog with us

Cool, I can't figure out which one user you were

You are the your own solution and cause to all of your problems

We're you in touch anywhere off the boards? There are a bunch of oldies I'd love to track down but come up short.

I will snog each and every one of you

Hi

But they also killed off knock-off emperor snookie and knock-off Boba Fett phasma, who were brand new and supposedly central to certain characters' development. And also killing snoke off definitely was an admission that he was just a JJ Abrams macguffin and not an actual character. But the end of the second film in a trilogy seems to be a really odd place to totally reset the deck again, if they were being honest about IX really being the end of the "Skywalker saga".

Tell that nerd that we have a good mobile version so that he can dual-wield both at once

I was really surprised that he killed off admiral ackbar so unceremoniously and so early, and then they let him continue killing off virtually everyone except the mainest of characters, plus that one alien pilot and Carrie Fisher's daughter, to the point where the entire resistance/rebels could fit inside the millennium falcon.

And in his memory, decompress away! He always wanted to open up to new people when the site was ready, he wanted the site to be a hub for artists and creative types. Without him and his plans, that's probably not the route we will go, but while we try to figure out a site "hook" I've been trying to find ways to get the word out to ASMB folks who never got the memo. Y'know, like getting the gang back together.

Bitch plz

Luuv didn't actually create UEMB to replace the boards, he just wanted to do his own thing and invited people. It just so happened that two months in, they pulled the plug on the ASMB so at the time it turned into a Noah's Ark sort of thing.

You're on the shortlist

You never know!

welcome back! if you're in touch with anyone else, please let them know we're still here. and that we have a functioning mobile site!
