See the webcomic Questionable Content for related 'Indie Chic' humor. Some NSFW verbage, but very little actual nudity.The Rich keep getting richer because they keep doing what it was that made them rich. Ditto the Poor.

Reminds me of my freshman year of college...my roommate and I weren't very compatable and almost never spoke to each other when it didn't involve the fencing team or the one class we had together. Then one day she got this funny look on her face and turned to me and asked me what I was singing.Quoth Andara Bledin View PostNo, he's an indie poser. He's not really into indie music for the music; he's into indie music for the affectation of being into indie music.
Her favorite band, Linkin Park, had just released their first album, and me, always quick to pick up songs, was singing the one that had been playing on the radio at work all week. She considered it the most awesome thing that had happened all semester that this girl who had almost nothing in common with her was singing her favorite band's songs.It's little things that make the difference between 'enjoyable', 'tolerable', and 'gimme a spoon, I'm digging an escape tunnel'.

You mean "no nudity, beyond butts with thongs once in a blue moon." Nothing in there that you wouldn't see on regular TV.Quoth Geek King View Postbut very little actual nudity.

I'll bet she's incredibly cheap. My ex was like that -- he always ordered pop with no ice in restaurants, because that way he'd get more pop.Quoth Green_Fairy View Post"I wanted the ice in a separate cup."
...really? that's...i hate you.
Personally, I would rather have slightly less ice cold refreshing pop than slightly more tepid and over-fizzy pop, but I generally prefer quality over quantity.

I do it not because I'm cheap, but because the ice makes to too cold for me to drink and I can't stand the taste of watered-down soda. Of course, I also prefer flat soda....

Damn it, now I want Dr. Pepper. Well, guess what I'll be getting on the way home from work tomorrow!It's floating wicker propelled by fire!

Common misconception. The ice actually dilutes it to the point of where it's supposed to be, so long as a) you don't take forever to drink it, and b) their fountain is properly calibrated. If you drink it without any ice in a restaurant then you're drinking it with too much syrup.Quoth Pagan View PostI can't stand the taste of watered-down soda.

Interesting that the thought of something warm and flat can trigger a desire response. Someone should write a report on this phenomenon, which I believe is unique to Dr. Pepper. (Happens to me all the time too.)Quoth Pagan View PostMy best friend's husband and I are forever finishing her warm, flat Dr. Pepper.

Hmm. Cause to me, what comes out of the soda fountain with no ice tastes exactly like what comes out of a bottle. And yes, I do, to some people, take forever to drink it. I'll get stomach cramps if I drink something cold too fast.Quoth Broomjockey View PostCommon misconception.

Well, considering I received this information directly from the coca-cola representative who came in to calibrate our fountains every couple of months, I'll continue to trust him.Quoth Pagan View PostHmm.

i've heard about psychic vampires.
read once that you were suppose to make a loop with each hand - your thumb and index finger and interlock them as a shield against them sucking your energy.
dunno if that's true but maybe it can put you in the mindset of not letting her tap your aura
