CB is pretty much the reason the corps is what it is today, and the main reason we even had a site. I kinda miss him checking in. What's his KS? I didn't know about it.
`
Leo... coffee... I never thought I'd say this, but coffee is something I wouldn't recommend!
Geist de la Muerte Gatito 2016-02-05T16:40:32-05:00
I have been in a droopy, relaxed, sleep filled day so far
Doesn't weed do the same thing?
Micah "Zem the Mattress" Philson 2016-02-05T16:56:28-05:00
Hey, Trinkets, can I borrow some "muscle relaxer"? I have like 3 places on my back that always really hurt and my foot cramped awhile ago, so I could sure use some "pain relievers" right now.
Micah "Zem the Mattress" Philson 2016-02-05T16:58:04-05:00
Assuming Geist is right, that is... Otherwise, no, I don't need drugs.
Hehe, low-yield ice. Columbian rain. Eskimo ice cream.
Re: getting put under at doc's- I had a tooth pulled, asked to be put fully under. I dreamt I was being led down a dark tunnel with a bright light at the end (seriously....) but was being led by a Ludo (labyrinth)- type gentle giant beast. It was very strange
Lord Zombitten 2016-02-05T18:45:38-05:00
I'm ready for a weekend!
I love Labyrinth! I told my wife that if I got a male sphynx, I would name him Hoggle.
Micah "Zem the Mattress" Philson 2016-02-05T19:04:10-05:00
It's the nap I kinda wanted, but not the one I needed just now. *cue batman music*
Yeah, kinda happened, even after sleeping about 10 hours and catching up on sleep a little after weeks of not being able to, but who cares. Now I can stay up later (whether I want to or not)!
Micah "Zem the Mattress" Philson 2016-02-06T00:45:36-05:00
Weekends. Siiiileent niiiight...
Eric 'Trinkets&Nopes' Baumgarten 2016-02-06T14:48:50-05:00
Wow.
Micah "Zem the Mattress" Philson 2016-02-06T15:01:18-05:00
Just because it's the weekend doesn't mean we can't be friends.
Geist de la Muerte Gatito 2016-02-06T15:45:56-05:00
Got chemical bombed on the last night. Need to seriously think about getting a car
Micah "Zem the Mattress" Philson 2016-02-06T16:00:14-05:00
Ok, Geist, none of that made sense. Take as many steps back as your drunk phone can and then repeat everything you said with more context and pretext.
Lord Zombitten 2016-02-06T16:19:21-05:00
Zem, it sounds to me like she was next to someone on the metro who had taken a bath in perfume, causing her to choke on the fumes.
Geist de la Muerte Gatito 2016-02-06T16:35:45-05:00
Sorry. I should slow down when playing with this thing.
What I meant to say was a group of evil teenagers/young adults were rough housing on the Metro and set off a smoke bomb in the car I was riding in. I alerted the train operator and when my companions and I exited the train, we found that another group had taken the fire extinguisher on the next car and tried to break the glass before spraying the back seats. Needless to say, the train went out of service.
I enhaled some of the smoke bomb and was still coughing a few hours after I got home
Eric 'Trinkets&Nopes' Baumgarten 2016-02-06T16:40:59-05:00
That's horrible Geist.
Micah "Zem the Mattress" Philson 2016-02-06T17:45:52-05:00
I think I've overdosed on sleep now. After so long of rarely enough, now 2 days in a row with more than plenty. I have a massive headache from it too.
Lord Zombitten 2016-02-06T18:44:56-05:00
Because the tooth fairy is a silly, obnoxious tradition, I started making a fairy door today
Micah "Zem the Mattress" Philson 2016-02-06T19:12:58-05:00
My prescription: a ton of coffee and staying up late. How will I cope?!
`
Wait, LZ, to tie a tooth to the doorknob kind of thing? The tooth fairy is a sadistic being that forcefully yanks a piece of your skull off?
Micah "Zem the Mattress" Philson 2016-02-06T20:08:05-05:00
I've fallen off the caffeine bandwagon! I'm only more than halfway through my large pot and I'm shaking more than I have in a long time. Whenever my hand shakes or lip twitches or eye blinks involuntarily, I remind myself of my grandma with Parkinson's. I can hardly even eat!
Lord Zombitten 2016-02-06T20:14:47-05:00
Zem, no. It's a small door you can put a little alcove behind. It's a great place to put a tooth, instead of under a pillow.
Micah "Zem the Mattress" Philson 2016-02-06T20:25:22-05:00
So you don't have to reach under a pillow being actively used? Clever.
@Lz- though I love Leo's name, I sometimes wish I named him Ambrosious. Especially becasue I already tell his name a lot. Would be fun to yell "ambrosious come here right this minute!" Al the time. :)
Micah "Zem the Mattress" Philson 2016-02-06T22:48:47-05:00
Or Orcrist. Get it? The sword from The Hobbit? "Biter"? Ok, I may in fact be an absolute geek.
Micah "Zem the Mattress" Philson 2016-02-07T05:14:45-05:00
Finally introduced my roommate to MST3K. It's the perfect combination of cheesy, boring saturday afternoon movie and the funniest things you've ever heard! I love this show!
The first two he had to see were Overdrawn at the Memory Banks and Space Mutiny, 2 of the absolute all-time best.
Eric 'Trinkets&Nopes' Baumgarten 2016-02-07T07:34:00-05:00
Space mutiny , total classic.
Jeff "Great Cane of Doom"™ Saxton 2016-02-07T11:40:06-05:00
Hey, All, popping in for a few moments.
@Lord Zombitten; I've been making Fairy Doors for about five years, just for friends, who have to prove they are worth my time, as it were, not just random folks. So far, there are about eight out there.
One woman, who drinks a lot, installed hers upside down by accident, we joke that her Fairies tumble out confused, just like her.
Jeff "Great Cane of Doom"™ Saxton 2016-02-07T12:00:55-05:00
I'm going to break a rule ... but has anyone been following this game:
Ends in about three days, I have the starter game released a few years back, plays fast, fun, and simple ...
Jeff "Great Cane of Doom"™ Saxton 2016-02-07T12:50:37-05:00
Oh well, off to my boring Sunday ...
Micah "Zem the Mattress" Philson 2016-02-07T13:23:49-05:00

Went to wash some clothes this morning and saw someone left a bag of cat food there. Weird.
Eric 'Trinkets&Nopes' Baumgarten 2016-02-07T16:05:29-05:00
Take it to a shelter.
Geist de la Muerte Gatito 2016-02-07T17:16:45-05:00
Good idea Trinkets. When I get home, I'll see if it's still there
Micah "Zem the Mattress" Philson 2016-02-07T17:19:15-05:00
Why is it that sometimes when I tell my computer to hibernate, it stays wide awake?! Now a few hours later it used nearly all of the battery and is incredibly freaking hot. Just go into deep sleep when I tell you to and you won't do damage to yourself!!!
Lord Zombitten 2016-02-07T18:12:41-05:00
I made deviled eggs for the game day party. I used Brimstone in the mix. They're delish.
Lord Zombitten 2016-02-07T18:14:53-05:00
@GCoD: I remembered you talking about fairy doors before. That's where I got the idea. One of my fathers-in-law gave me some woodworking tools for Christmas, including a coping saw, so now I actually have the tools to do what I have in mind.
Lord Zombitten 2016-02-07T18:17:55-05:00
@Creeper: Ambrosious would have been an excellent name!
I told the Mrs today that other names I could use for Sphynxes are Dobby, Winky, and Kreacher. Those don't have anything to do with Labyrinth, though.
Micah "Zem the Mattress" Philson 2016-02-07T18:51:59-05:00
I just got 2 drinks for Super Commercial. Nothing special, though I had quite a bit beforehand.
Micah "Zem the Mattress" Philson 2016-02-07T22:43:56-05:00
Not that kind of drinks! I'm not even 20 yet. Your alcoholic phones are having a bad influence on you.
Geist de la Muerte Gatito 2016-02-08T03:24:57-05:00
Morning kittens. My sleep cycle is off so I've been up since 1 am cooking and cleaning the kitchen. Making Lynch & dinner for the rest of the week since we are getting more snow fall Tuesday and Wednesday.
Geist de la Muerte Gatito 2016-02-08T04:54:05-05:00
Lynch? Really spell check? Really?
Rod "BaKhan" Mitchell 2016-02-08T09:41:37-05:00
Good Morning kittens!
Micah "Zem the Mattress" Philson 2016-02-08T09:47:45-05:00
You know, what happened to the good superbowl commercials? Stuff like Tim's Doritos? There are only a couple that were funny this year and none of them were close to that funny.
Geist de la Muerte Gatito 2016-02-08T10:07:48-05:00
Superbowl. Meh.
Rod "BaKhan" Mitchell 2016-02-08T10:10:10-05:00
@Geist, +1, couldn't have cared less, infact, didn't hear anything about it until this morning... lol! Not my thing, like many sports, I liked playing football, but watching it, meh... ;)
Lord Zombitten 2016-02-08T10:37:58-05:00
There's no football at my family's Super Bowl party. We eat food and play games
Geist de la Muerte Gatito 2016-02-08T10:38:56-05:00
My team wasn't playing and I was hella busy the whole weekend. Between late night card games, getting smoke bombed in the Metro, craft fairs and more cards games, I went into Sunday night with a long list of things that I didn't completely get done.
At least I am ready for the new snow coming tonight and tomorrow. (I'm out of booze but it's a week night and I have to go to work both those days)
Geist de la Muerte Gatito 2016-02-08T10:46:06-05:00
Great idea LZ. Sounds way more fun. Besides, you can see the Superbowl ads online.
I'm jumping into the deep end, with cast iron shoes and bracelets this morning. NOTHING organized, stuff triple(if not more) times printed....and so much stuff going wrong in the last 1.25 hours.
Geist de la Muerte Gatito 2016-02-08T11:22:18-05:00
I have decided, I'm not taking a full week off ever again. I will take a long weekend, but not a full week(will always work Mon-Wed as those are the days the payroll is processed).
Rod "BaKhan" Mitchell 2016-02-08T11:58:34-05:00
@LZ, thats awesome! I added some inferno to some roasted garlic tomato soup that I made, and it was fantastic! I'm almost though my first bottle of each now! Thankfully I bought two of each... ;)
Rod "BaKhan" Mitchell 2016-02-08T11:59:20-05:00
@GM, thats too bad! Vacations are the best! Sorry your return to work was less than glorious... ;)
Micah "Zem the Mattress" Philson 2016-02-08T13:36:19-05:00
BaKhan, the superbowel is 'murican, so your vote doesn't count! ;)
`
I sometimes like watching sportsball, and I do like Denver quite a bit. I kind of like how Peyton Manning's career ended like a disney fairy tale movie.
But none of the ads were even that funny. Some were good, but not exceptional, so don't go watching them online. ESPECIALLY not that damn puppy-monkey-baby thing that disgusts me to even think about. How do they expect to sell anything with that? It made me feel sick, not like I wanted a mountain dew thing!
`
BaKhan, is coming back to work after an awesome Vegas getaway glorious ever? I mean unless you came back to a full day of games and free pizza and beer, it will always be agonizing.
Rod "BaKhan" Mitchell 2016-02-08T14:18:29-05:00
@Zem, oh I see how it is... ;) Its all good! Whenever I get back to work from vacation, I feel like a returning hero. Oh Rod's back! etc., it feels good to be acknowledged!
Geist de la Muerte Gatito 2016-02-08T17:05:12-05:00
Wow. Metro just announced that due to the snow that will be coming tomorrow, no buses will be running in my area.
I swear, we are the wimpy-est bunch of folks when it comes to a little bit of frozen water.
Geist de la Muerte Gatito 2016-02-08T17:05:42-05:00
Sorry I haven't been on very much today. Kinda depressed and not in a talkative mood.
Rod "BaKhan" Mitchell 2016-02-08T17:46:41-05:00
@Geist, sorry you're not feeling well! You know what would cheer you up? A trip to Calgary! Just saying... ;)
Micah "Zem the Mattress" Philson 2016-02-08T17:49:48-05:00
Syrup Heist!!! We could make it a KC activity and get some teamwork and bonding in there too.
Micah "Zem the Mattress" Philson 2016-02-08T23:25:41-05:00
Hi! Sorry I've been caught up and forgot to check in. I just realized, it's nice that you're back on here regularly, Creeper! I remember back in the hassle of getting and getting accustomed to the new job when we were lucky to see you once a week at 2 or 3 am!
Micah "Zem the Mattress" Philson 2016-02-09T08:45:36-05:00
Last off, first on. I'm like the keeper of the comments.
Rod "BaKhan" Mitchell 2016-02-09T09:52:02-05:00
Good Morning Kittens! Hope everyone is having a better day!
Eric 'Trinkets&Nopes' Baumgarten 2016-02-09T12:14:07-05:00
No, BaKhan, today can still suck it!! (Only speaking for me of course. )
Today can burn in a hole in the ground. Vacations are likely to be a three day weekend here and there for me from now on. -.-
Eric 'Trinkets&Nopes' Baumgarten 2016-02-09T12:50:17-05:00
Rocky Rococo's pizza.
Mainly a Wisconsin pizza chain. Some in Minnesota, Illinois, one in Spokane, Wash.
IMHO, the best pizza known to man. The commercials always featured a guy dressed as in a white suit and hat, sunglasses, and mustache. He talked with an over the top Italian accent. He has been doing it since I was little. He passed away yesterday. Their commercials will never be the same.
Micah "Zem the Mattress" Philson 2016-02-09T13:04:05-05:00
The commercials sound just like the Godfather's Pizza commercials.
`
Also, the only reason Giordano's pizza in Chicago isn't the best is because of Beaujo's in Colorado, especially in Idaho Springs since I didn't even know there were others until just now. But the only reason Beaujo's beats Giordano's is because their crust is pretty much pastry dough. Once you eat the amazing pizza, they have honey you can put on the crusts and it's beautiful!
Lord Zombitten 2016-02-09T13:21:23-05:00
Giordano's also loses points for not cutting the pizza.
Eric 'Trinkets&Nopes' Baumgarten 2016-02-09T13:50:40-05:00
What?
That's rediculous. If I wanted to do the work, I would have eaten at home.
Eric 'Trinkets&Nopes' Baumgarten 2016-02-09T13:54:54-05:00
Scroll to the bottom. Does that pic look familiar? You gave me $20 for the Sphynx fund, but it turned out to be a scam, so I owe you $20. Fortunately, I caught it before I paid anything.
Geist de la Muerte Gatito 2016-02-09T16:41:31-05:00
I am so sorry to hear that LZ. I know you wanted one of those kitties to call your own. If I may ask, how did you find out it was fake?
You could try to send me the money through Paypal. Or through the mail. Up to you.
Lord Zombitten 2016-02-09T17:17:56-05:00
As I've corresponded with these people, things started to seem a bit fishy; so on a hunch, I did a reverse image search on the pics they emailed me. That search rook me right to that page. When I get home from work, I'll see if I can get gofundme to refund the money. If not, I'll get it to you via PayPal.
Micah "Zem the Mattress" Philson 2016-02-09T17:31:02-05:00
Ah, nothing like forgetting you're holding a separatory funnel full of methyl benzoate and ether directly below your nose. The ether provides the kick, the methyl benzoate gives it a beautiful bouquet of holy-shit-what's-this-smell-and-why-is-it-right-under-my-nose-?!?!. Then since you're crouching, that lovely feeling when you stand up and already feel slightly low on oxygen, but that mixed with ether. That was... educational. And fun!
Then almost tasting it later, which was a little like chalky strawberries, like a strawberry flavored chewable vitamin. With ether.
Micah "Zem the Mattress" Philson 2016-02-09T17:34:03-05:00
Wow. I mean, if you're going to scam someone, make sure not to make it that easy to find you out. I mean seriously, there are dozens of ways of finding good non-searchable pictures.
`
Also, I haven't had Giordano's in something over 10 years now, so I forgot they don't cut the pizza for you. I'll take your word for it, though then you get the whole pizza in one slice!
Micah "Zem the Mattress" Philson 2016-02-09T17:36:25-05:00
But LZ, the way you said "You gave me $20 for the Sphynx fund, but it turned out to be a scam, so I owe you $20. Fortunately, I caught it before I paid anything." made me think you were the scammer and had found yourself out and were forcing yourself to give the money back! It was so funny and confusing for awhile. Though that might just be all the ether. Man, we used alot of that stuff! I felt like you could set my breath on fire sometimes.
Lord Zombitten 2016-02-09T19:25:21-05:00
Geist, gofundme will refund your money. They said you should have it in 2-5 days.
Geist de la Muerte Gatito 2016-02-09T19:35:17-05:00
Darn. I was going to suggest some fish sauce in exchange for the funds. I'm almost out & it's delicious in salad dressing
Lord Zombitten 2016-02-09T19:43:58-05:00
Oh, that would have worked, too. I mean, I would have had to get more bottle and make it. But, it's too late now. Once the process has started, it cannot be undone.
Geist de la Muerte Gatito 2016-02-09T19:56:30-05:00
Ah well. Next time you are selling some sauce, let me know.
Lord Zombitten 2016-02-09T19:57:47-05:00
Will do
Micah "Zem the Mattress" Philson 2016-02-09T20:17:52-05:00
Well I don't think there's a selective return money process. If you returned the other donators', you'd have to return Geist's as well. Though (even though I don't use the sauces too much right now because there's not much of a chance) giving it straight back to you for sauce sounds like a genius idea.
`
Also, did you know Cyanide and Happiness made a card game? It's really like The Contender, if you read up on my posts about that, but also really funny. I don't know if you all read C&H or know about them or like them, so I won't post a link or anything, but it's a kickstarter. And it looks really funny!
Micah "Zem the Mattress" Philson 2016-02-09T20:19:42-05:00
Looks like they're basically using an upgraded version of KC's achievement-unlocked type stretch goal system too. KC really set the standards! It was so large and well run people have just constantly been picking ideas from how it was ran!
Micah "Zem the Mattress" Philson 2016-02-09T20:49:14-05:00
I swear my roommate is actually a bear. He's incredibly huge and hibernates. He only gets up for classes and sometimes food. I'm certain he sleeps about 18 hours a day, except that he pulls it off all year round, not just winter. The only thing more surprising is that he doesn't have to go to the bathroom ever.
Micah "Zem the Mattress" Philson 2016-02-10T01:00:40-05:00
Fine then, be that way. So far, it's been another slow week in here.
So sleepy. Just stopping in to say hi. GM and I are in another campaign- man - a lot of angry people! The creators don't communicate much and it's a little delayed. Only three months so far- but it knocked EK out of its spot- so super popular. All the newcomers are psychotic in their demands!!
Geist de la Muerte Gatito 2016-02-10T10:49:04-05:00
Hello Creeper! I think I know which campaign you are talking about. I would have backed it but didn't have the cash on me.
Geist de la Muerte Gatito 2016-02-10T10:54:04-05:00
An update on the KittenCorps web page: The web transfer is complete although there seems to be a bit of an issue at the moment. I'll try to have a look at it this weekend and see if I can get this resolved.
Seems Mike backed up the files so I can restore the site to what it once was. Please be patient as I try to figure this out. I've never done anything like this so it might take a little while. I've signed up for automatic yearly payments so we won't lose this again. (Hopefully)
Geist de la Muerte Gatito 2016-02-10T10:54:13-05:00

Zem, it sounds to me like she was next to someone on the metro who had taken a bath in perfume, causing her to choke on the fumes.
Sorry. I should slow down when playing with this thing.
What I meant to say was a group of evil teenagers/young adults were rough housing on the Metro and set off a smoke bomb in the car I was riding in. I alerted the train operator and when my companions and I exited the train, we found that another group had taken the fire extinguisher on the next car and tried to break the glass before spraying the back seats.

Why is it that sometimes when I tell my computer to hibernate, it stays wide awake?! Now a few hours later it used nearly all of the battery and is incredibly freaking hot. Just go into deep sleep when I tell you to and you won't do damage to yourself!!!
I made deviled eggs for the game day party. I used Brimstone in the mix. They're delish.
@GCoD: I remembered you talking about fairy doors before. That's where I got the idea. One of my fathers-in-law gave me some woodworking tools for Christmas, including a coping saw, so now I actually have the tools to do what I have in mind.
@Creeper: Ambrosious would have been an excellent name!
I told the Mrs today that other names I could use for Sphynxes are Dobby, Winky, and Kreacher. Those don't have anything to do with Labyrinth, though.
I just got 2 drinks for Super Commercial. Nothing special, though I had quite a bit beforehand.
Not that kind of drinks! I'm not even 20 yet. Your alcoholic phones are having a bad influence on you.
Morning kittens. My sleep cycle is off so I've been up since 1 am cooking and cleaning the kitchen. Making Lynch & dinner for the rest of the week since we are getting more snow fall Tuesday and Wednesday.
Lynch? Really spell check? Really?
Good Morning kittens!
You know, what happened to the good superbowl commercials? Stuff like Tim's Doritos? There are only a couple that were funny this year and none of them were close to that funny.
Superbowl. Meh.
@Geist, +1, couldn't have cared less, infact, didn't hear anything about it until this morning... lol! Not my thing, like many sports, I liked playing football, but watching it, meh... ;)
There's no football at my family's Super Bowl party. We eat food and play games
My team wasn't playing and I was hella busy the whole weekend. Between late night card games, getting smoke bombed in the Metro, craft fairs and more cards games, I went into Sunday night with a long list of things that I didn't completely get done.
At least I am ready for the new snow coming tonight and tomorrow. (I'm out of booze but it's a week night and I have to go to work both those days)
Great idea LZ. Sounds way more fun. Besides, you can see the Superbowl ads online.
And let the headache commence....
Morning kittens. -.-
Fully agree with you GM.
Today can officially suck it!!!
Good morning all.
Don't Mondays suck in general anyway?
I'm jumping into the deep end, with cast iron shoes and bracelets this morning. NOTHING organized, stuff triple(if not more) times printed....and so much stuff going wrong in the last 1.25 hours.
Looks like you need another trip to Vegas GM
I have decided, I'm not taking a full week off ever again. I will take a long weekend, but not a full week(will always work Mon-Wed as those are the days the payroll is processed).
@LZ, thats awesome! I added some inferno to some roasted garlic tomato soup that I made, and it was fantastic! I'm almost though my first bottle of each now! Thankfully I bought two of each... ;)
@GM, thats too bad! Vacations are the best! Sorry your return to work was less than glorious... ;)
BaKhan, the superbowel is 'murican, so your vote doesn't count! ;)
`
I sometimes like watching sportsball, and I do like Denver quite a bit. I kind of like how Peyton Manning's career ended like a disney fairy tale movie.
But none of the ads were even that funny. Some were good, but not exceptional, so don't go watching them online. ESPECIALLY not that damn puppy-monkey-baby thing that disgusts me to even think about. How do they expect to sell anything with that? It made me feel sick, not like I wanted a mountain dew thing!
`
BaKhan, is coming back to work after an awesome Vegas getaway glorious ever? I mean unless you came back to a full day of games and free pizza and beer, it will always be agonizing.
@Zem, oh I see how it is... ;) Its all good! Whenever I get back to work from vacation, I feel like a returning hero. Oh Rod's back! etc., it feels good to be acknowledged!
Wow. Metro just announced that due to the snow that will be coming tomorrow, no buses will be running in my area.
I swear, we are the wimpy-est bunch of folks when it comes to a little bit of frozen water.
Sorry I haven't been on very much today. Kinda depressed and not in a talkative mood.
@Geist, sorry you're not feeling well! You know what would cheer you up? A trip to Calgary! Just saying... ;)
Syrup Heist!!! We could make it a KC activity and get some teamwork and bonding in there too.
The piles are...somewhat....sorted. Now...just finish getting everything loaded THEN I might be able to take a nap.
I took a nap today. It did literally nothing for me. At least it didn't make me feel even worse off.
Hiya kittens!
Hi! Sorry I've been caught up and forgot to check in. I just realized, it's nice that you're back on here regularly, Creeper! I remember back in the hassle of getting and getting accustomed to the new job when we were lucky to see you once a week at 2 or 3 am!
Last off, first on. I'm like the keeper of the comments.
Good Morning Kittens! Hope everyone is having a better day!
No, BaKhan, today can still suck it!! (Only speaking for me of course. )
Good morning all!
Today can burn in a hole in the ground. Vacations are likely to be a three day weekend here and there for me from now on. -.-
Rocky Rococo's pizza.
Mainly a Wisconsin pizza chain. Some in Minnesota, Illinois, one in Spokane, Wash.
IMHO, the best pizza known to man. The commercials always featured a guy dressed as in a white suit and hat, sunglasses, and mustache. He talked with an over the top Italian accent. He has been doing it since I was little. He passed away yesterday. Their commercials will never be the same.
The commercials sound just like the Godfather's Pizza commercials.
`
Also, the only reason Giordano's pizza in Chicago isn't the best is because of Beaujo's in Colorado, especially in Idaho Springs since I didn't even know there were others until just now. But the only reason Beaujo's beats Giordano's is because their crust is pretty much pastry dough. Once you eat the amazing pizza, they have honey you can put on the crusts and it's beautiful!
Giordano's also loses points for not cutting the pizza.
What?
That's rediculous. If I wanted to do the work, I would have eaten at home.

The man himself.
I wanna go home now
Ooh! I'm pissed. I hate scammers. Geist, how do you want your money back?
@LZ: Huh? What happened? What money?
http://www.alexandriasphynx.com/Cattery/Fall2012
Scroll to the bottom. Does that pic look familiar? You gave me $20 for the Sphynx fund, but it turned out to be a scam, so I owe you $20. Fortunately, I caught it before I paid anything.
I am so sorry to hear that LZ. I know you wanted one of those kitties to call your own. If I may ask, how did you find out it was fake?
You could try to send me the money through Paypal. Or through the mail. Up to you.
As I've corresponded with these people, things started to seem a bit fishy; so on a hunch, I did a reverse image search on the pics they emailed me. That search rook me right to that page. When I get home from work, I'll see if I can get gofundme to refund the money. If not, I'll get it to you via PayPal.
Ah, nothing like forgetting you're holding a separatory funnel full of methyl benzoate and ether directly below your nose. The ether provides the kick, the methyl benzoate gives it a beautiful bouquet of holy-shit-what's-this-smell-and-why-is-it-right-under-my-nose-?!?!. Then since you're crouching, that lovely feeling when you stand up and already feel slightly low on oxygen, but that mixed with ether. That was... educational. And fun!
Then almost tasting it later, which was a little like chalky strawberries, like a strawberry flavored chewable vitamin. With ether.
Wow. I mean, if you're going to scam someone, make sure not to make it that easy to find you out. I mean seriously, there are dozens of ways of finding good non-searchable pictures.
`
Also, I haven't had Giordano's in something over 10 years now, so I forgot they don't cut the pizza for you. I'll take your word for it, though then you get the whole pizza in one slice!
But LZ, the way you said "You gave me $20 for the Sphynx fund, but it turned out to be a scam, so I owe you $20. Fortunately, I caught it before I paid anything." made me think you were the scammer and had found yourself out and were forcing yourself to give the money back! It was so funny and confusing for awhile. Though that might just be all the ether. Man, we used alot of that stuff! I felt like you could set my breath on fire sometimes.
Geist, gofundme will refund your money. They said you should have it in 2-5 days.
Darn. I was going to suggest some fish sauce in exchange for the funds. I'm almost out & it's delicious in salad dressing
Oh, that would have worked, too. I mean, I would have had to get more bottle and make it. But, it's too late now. Once the process has started, it cannot be undone.
Ah well. Next time you are selling some sauce, let me know.
Will do
Well I don't think there's a selective return money process. If you returned the other donators', you'd have to return Geist's as well. Though (even though I don't use the sauces too much right now because there's not much of a chance) giving it straight back to you for sauce sounds like a genius idea.
`
Also, did you know Cyanide and Happiness made a card game? It's really like The Contender, if you read up on my posts about that, but also really funny. I don't know if you all read C&H or know about them or like them, so I won't post a link or anything, but it's a kickstarter. And it looks really funny!
Looks like they're basically using an upgraded version of KC's achievement-unlocked type stretch goal system too. KC really set the standards! It was so large and well run people have just constantly been picking ideas from how it was ran!
I swear my roommate is actually a bear. He's incredibly huge and hibernates. He only gets up for classes and sometimes food. I'm certain he sleeps about 18 hours a day, except that he pulls it off all year round, not just winter. The only thing more surprising is that he doesn't have to go to the bathroom ever.
Fine then, be that way. So far, it's been another slow week in here.
Preorder you connected dash cam @

So sleepy. Just stopping in to say hi. GM and I are in another campaign- man - a lot of angry people! The creators don't communicate much and it's a little delayed. Only three months so far- but it knocked EK out of its spot- so super popular. All the newcomers are psychotic in their demands!!
@ Devon Strzelewicz - Lame arse. Spam is good food? http://tinyurl.com/dashcamdummmy
Hello Creeper! I think I know which campaign you are talking about. I would have backed it but didn't have the cash on me.
An update on the KittenCorps web page: The web transfer is complete although there seems to be a bit of an issue at the moment. I'll try to have a look at it this weekend and see if I can get this resolved.
Seems Mike backed up the files so I can restore the site to what it once was. Please be patient as I try to figure this out. I've never done anything like this so it might take a little while. I've signed up for automatic yearly payments so we won't lose this again. (Hopefully)
Also, Morning kittens.
Morning kittens.
@Geist: That campaign is pretty bad. People already talking about legal action(not that there is much that can be done really).
