But why call it "Fracture"? Are they counting on you breaking it and forking out for another? -

Faux Life: Things That Happen On TV But Not In Reality
riley702 replied to Kromm's topic in Everything Else TV
OK, the second post negated my response to the second, which is that most hospitals will handcuff a violent person to the hospital bed. -

Someone annoyed by the occupant not having the decency to say "Occupied!" or something, instead of remaining silent? Silent seems rude, and someone might assume the door is blocked and try harder to open it. Hee hee. -

LOL. I just now got this. Slow morning yesterday. Also, what about doors that don't lock? I've run into those semi-frequently. I'd be beyond peeved if I couldn't wait for a locking stall, had someone try to barge in and then yell at me to lock a non-lockable door. -

Usually, they're tied to the pillow with a ribbon. I've never seen a problem, although perhaps choosing the child factored into that. -
Why Grammar Matters: A Place To Discuss Matters Of Grammar

Reminds me of the Cajun cook, Justin Wilson, who would deliberately say numbers "backwards". "Put in 4 or 3 tsps of (whatever)." -

Nailed it. I had a neighbor when I was in my 20s who was constantly out on his patio (that I had to pass to get to and from the parking lot) who would constantly ask where I was going, would run to try to physically grab my groceries "to do me a favor" and try to get into my apartment. I finally yelled at him, "You want to help me? Stop blocking the sidewalk!" and got told I was too proud, and no man would ever want me for not letting them help me. Thank God he moved out several months later. -
And only certain types of breast cancer at that.

I have serious problems with someone running out to try and and interact with her every chance they get. And then get pissy when she wants nothing to do with him. -

OK, I'm going to expose my ignorance over the "Snowfall" show promo. I get it's about drugs. But when the gunshots are heard, little glass drug vials drop to the ground. Why are they empty and capped? If it was a drug deal gone wrong, why aren't they full or at least uncapped with drug residue? Then, I noticed they were smoking like they were supposed to be bullet cartridges. This makes no sense to me. What am I missing? -
Disagree about 21 years. She should have to think about their deaths for eternity as she contemplates her lack of freedom.

@AgentRXS, what about his personal (I'd say sexual) harassment of you? Can that be pursued? -

A Case Of The Mondays: Vent Your Work Spleen Here

Speaking of assholes... -
I don't think he even realizes they look like Diane! LOL

My personal opinion is that he plays one on TV, and he overdoes it. He works in LA during the off-season when he's not filming, and I know he was an intern for Sydney Pollack. I also know this show was HIS idea, and he is listed as a producer. So, someone who can do that, and yet thinks a few oz. butter = 4 sticks (the episode where he was trying to make Eggs Benedict while his parents were at church) has to be faking dumb.

If they verbally promise to raise your pay, tell them you need it in writing. -

Don't. I don't have a friend like that, but I have my phone set not to ring between 10 pm and 9 am. -
