OTFPOTD - 12/2 LATE

Griffeydome_tiny by PositivePaul on Comment 837 comments

I know Gomez had dibs, but it's almost 10:30, and there's nothing yet.  And I saved the HTML code for my FanPost that got trumped yesterday...

Oh NOEZ! The price of the "12 Days of Christmas" list went up almost 11% this year.  It'll now cost a mere $86,609 to buy 9 ladies dancing, 8 maids a-milking, etc...  I'd bet that the price of gold and the price of gas (and the fact that airlines and UPS and a bunch of other places haven't taken away their fuel surcharges quite yet, in spite of the price of gas halving recently) had something to do with it...

Yesterday was my wife's birthday.  She wanted a Home Depot shopping spree.  Now I'm really wondering who wears the pants in the family.  Okay, so I got her a dozen roses, too.

I shot two eagles on Saturday.  Of course, this could mean many things, so I'll just post a link instead. 

My Powerbook G4 plug broke yesterday morning.  BAAAAH!  Must've been the yin to the yang of getting another copy of the awesome photo printer I use at home for free (it was broken, the gal who sold me the ink cartidges said, but I was able to fix it). So, if I can get the broken pin out, I can probably just get a new power supply.  But if not, I need to figure out what I can do to get a new laptop.  I don't really have the money for a newer one, so I may just have to scrounge together $3-400 to get another G4 Powerbook. 

So we talked about favorite Christmas songs.  Since Christmas Story turns 25 this year, let's talk about favorite Christmas movies.  Least-favorites, too.  I'm certain we've done this before, but what the hey.  We have new folks around since the last time we discussed them...

My older sister remembers watching this on tv, it was the reason all cartoons were banned in our house.

Everything created after Speedy Gonzalez/ Pink Panther was deemed satanic. Hanna Barbera topped the list, even though I think they created the Flintstones.

There's a new seating chart up at work

there’s six of them floating around all by the same admin, and she hasn’t managed to spell my first or last name right on any of them, and they’re all spelled differently. One reads “Davis.” One reads “Dalis.” One reads “Fuckisima”

The latest one is by far my favorite – “Fuku8shma”

Yes. She really put an eight in my name.

What the shit

That’s terrible, and it saddens me that there are so many people that can’t handle basic spelling, especially when it is somebody’s name. She obviously knows your name, and can’t even correctly type it while (presumably) looking at it

The amusing thing is that not only does she have no idea how to spell or pronounce it, this is just continuing to prove that she doesn't proofread anything before posting it

and that’s not good for an administrative assistant…

And yes, my name is correctly spelled in the company directory. And on my nametag (which was made by a different, much more diligent admin). And to be quite frank, my first name is not hard to spell. And it’s not too hard to figure out that I don’t have an 8 in my name either

by seattlebruin on Dec 2, 2008 10:32 AM PST up reply actions   0 recs

Your first name doesn't even have alternate spellings

I understand when people use the wrong spelling of my first name, but with yours it is inexcusable. And I’m fairly positive that human names, first or last, do not include randomly placed numbers

you know how it is with those crazy foreign names, though

you all use different alphabets than we do. How is a humble admin supposed to keep track of all those languages? For all we know, the letter K in Japanese could be represented by a top hat!

With apologies to NOLA and RC

You can save money on 9 ladies dancing by redefining the scope of a dance. At Deja Vu, it should only cost you about $200 total ;P

Someone usually has egg nog lattes by Halloween.

I usually try to have one by then, but this year it took me a few extra days.

I friggin’ LOVE my egg nog lattes.

Making 50+ eggnog lattes in one day made me hate eggnog with a fiery burning passion.

The smell of steaming eggnog is vile and it sounds like a jet plane taking off.

I do enjoy SoyNog.

Correct

My mom was 4 or 5 months pregnant with me and went to see it. And it has always been my favorite movie

I thought of telling you this earlier,

but it’s so much goddamn money. Totally incredible box set though, and technically a good value considering how much stuff there is

WOO!

And Judd Apatow is supposedly doing Ghostbusters 3.

Worried? I am too.

That kinda scares me

but if he gets it right it could be supremely awesome.

Not at all.

Judd Apatow is a fucking genius.

by Robert on Dec 2, 2008 11:08 AM PST up reply actions   0 recs

Most of the time, yes.

I just worry about this movie in particular.

by Phildopip on Dec 2, 2008 11:08 AM PST up reply actions   0 recs

I worry about every aspect of this movie

I just trust Apatow more than everybody else.

I had not heard this

From what I understood, the game was supposed to be an indirect version of GB3. They also, according to Aykroyd, were planning on doing a third movie as full Computer Animation, but not in a “kiddie” kind of way. This way the original cast could do it

Ben Stiller!?

Really, Ramis? You want Ben Stiller to play Venkman’s part!?

by BrianL on Dec 2, 2008 11:19 AM PST up reply actions   0 recs

That was before they switched to wanting to go CG

From what I understand, all the original cast members really like doing VO work for the game, and realized that a movie done in the same manner would be much easier, and more faithful to what they’ve always wanted. Hell, Aykroyd has mentioned before that the original script for 3 was written to have Chris Farley in as one of the “new guys” that the originals would train, but then he died. They have had the idea of the old guys training replacements for a while, but it never worked itself out

If you can dodge a wrench, then you can dodge a ghost!

I could see that working out, just hope Ben Stiller isn’t involved. He’s ok in certain vehicles, but I’m not a fan so my opinion is biased.

I'm just glad Sony didn't step in and buy it, as was rumored

They likely would have killed off the Xbox 360 version because Fuck Sony

That would have been awful.

I hope those rumors that the Wii version would allow you to use your DS as a PKE meter are true…

by BrianL on Dec 2, 2008 11:28 AM PST up reply actions   0 recs

That would be cool.

I might actually use my Wii again.

Wait a week or so and put it on Craigslist

You might net a few bucks out of it, if you really don’t use it that much

Now I have the song "Detachable Penis" stuck in my head.

But in all seriousness, it’s still fun to have around for parties and stuff. Plus one of these days I fully intend to start actually using Wii Fit.

That's how I justify keeping Rock Band 2 around here

One of these days I’ll get more than 1 or 2 people to play it with, and actually get my money’s worth

did y’all know Comcast is hiring, and is having a job fair?
