    I've been TRYING to pimp the site to my roomie and best friend, but he refuses to join under any circumstances. He's got this ed up op.def. thing where he absolutely refuses to consider anything someone else is into if they suggest it to him.

    Some highlights from the list* so far are...

    1) Terry Pratchett - Candidate for best author ever

    2) This Site - Well, duh

    3) Dragonball Z/GT - Okay, he can't be wrong all the time. ing fanboys ruined what value it may have had a LONG time ago.

    4) Nasal-strips - He snores... REALLY loud. Wake me up in the other bedroom loud. Even offered to buy them for him. Someone pass me a clue-by-four?

    5) Mayo on Fries - He likes fish japanese style, with eyes... especially the eyes... yet he catagoricly refuses to try this, even though he slaps mayo on every sandwich he's eats.

      OOOH, another person who like mayo with their fries...bonus if you like skins.

      i haven't been able to sell the site, since my co workers are not of the type to enjoy this sort of thing. (sad, but true)
      look! it's ghengis khan!
      Sorry, but while I can do many things, extracting heads from anuses isn't one of them. (so sayeth the irv)

        I pimped this site to a customer, who like me, had to work on Christmas Day. He works at one of the movie theaters up the street.

        I don't know if he checked it out yet or not; he seemed a little frightened when he read the name.
        I'm bringing disdain back...with a vengeance.

        Oh, and your tool box called...you got out again.

            Mmmm, mayo on fries.

            If you're pimping out the site, just make sure you aren't randomly dropping cards in workplaces, because if a manager or customer finds them there could be trouble. Make sure they go into the hand of the employee who needs them.

              I've mentioned this place to my boss. Sometimes I think he thinks I'm making it up.

                I've tried, I've tried... a while back I even had some pens made up with the site's name, slogan, and address on them. (Those on the CS Christmas card list that year got some.) Anyway, I've given quite a few out, either directly to someone I know (not at work, with two exceptions: I'm not *that* much of an idiot), or left at a restaurant table with the tip, or whatever, and as far as I can tell, not one person has ever come here because of it.

                At this point I'd like to be rid of the things. I've thought about offering them to CS members for the cost of postage, but haven't because of the rules against spam, collecting personal information, etc.
                Now the trouble about trying to make yourself stupider than you really are is that you very often succeed.

                  I pimped us out to a girl at KFC today. She can't wait to check the place out.

                    Are the shirts still available now? I'm not sure where to look here.

                    Anyway, I've pimped out the site myself several times at my favorite grocery store, especially if I saw somebody ahead of me in line being difficult or a CS having to put up with the perennial uncorrected screaming kid.

                        When G still had the site, there were CS bumper stickers. When Bekki was visiting the US, she gave me a pile of them....which then went in my Christmas cards that year. I have one hanging in my office now--I thought about putting it on the car, but all I'd need is for some anal-retentive asshole to see that...resulting in a broken window or two.

                          I got HYHYBT's pens (I'm sending half to Becks), and I've been handing them out like crazy. The guys at the VW dealership (and maybe the Lexus dealership, too) up the street love them. One of the guys started checking us out, and thinks this place is hilarious. I hoping he joins up (if you see this, tell them Bella sent you. )

                          My mom grabbed some of the pens and handed one to the head of customer service at her work. The lady almost died laughing.
