Can we get a policy regarding the ads on Metafilter?
Can we make MetaTalk members only? And require dinner jackets?
Only if we make Members Only jackets required instead of dinner jackets.

I enjoyed my crimes. How is everyone else doing?
You're back less than 24 hours later? You're doing it wrong.

One is feets, the other is boots?
Does local mean the same thing as sharing the same continent? Because last time I checked, Canada isn't in the U.S. *checks again* Yep, still separate.

Stag and Doe
I've lived in CA, TX and WA and knew of stag/bachelor parties and bachelorette parties (always held separately). I currently live in BC, Canada (eight years) and have never heard of the parties the poster mentioned.
The only "tradition" I can think of that's even remotely similar is the "pay for a dance" with the bride or groom at the wedding reception.
I think both "traditions" are tacky.

What else is in this invisible backpack?
You, who has been at the job less time and do a poor job, won't be laid off because you have a family (a wife) to support. It doesn't matter that the single mom whose been there longer and does an awesome job has two kids to support.

Should I get cats considering my/their living conditions?
Kitties come in pairs. You'll have a much more well adjusted kitty when s/he has a companion. Siblings are fine but so is a pair of kittens/cats that have become used to each other yet aren't related.
I had two kitties in less square footage than your flat (RV/caravan) and they did fine. You can probably get away with one litter box but if you clean it DAILY.
Once my cats hit about a year old, I have no problem leaving them alone for a long... [more]

I benefited. And so did some people who don't know that AskMefi exists.
Someone needs to go back and "take care" of Skyanth's parents. Anyone?

Being the object of scrutiny, university owls say "Whom?"
I know! They need to zoom back in.
For a few seconds they were both looking straight down. Right now, right baby has hunkered down and left baby did a good wing stretch. I can't really see the nest, it looks like they're hanging out on a branch.

Slipping the mortal coil
Heartbreaking.
A long time friend of my husband retired after many years of being a mechanic. He had a stroke about two months into retirement. He lived another two years and died last year. So fucking unfair.

How about jump rope? It can be as low key or hyper as you want it.
Another thumbs-up on your explanation of Tourette's.

nice trick
Yummm, deep chocolate brown.
I have a sinus headache so the lighter colours are rather painful, but this is giving me the giggles. It all evens out. Nice job!

I live MeFi in dreams
Durn Bronzefist - do you play WoW (with a name like that, I probably don't have to ask)? When I'm in a marathon of WoW playing I have pretty intense dreams involving elves, dwarves, etc. It's awesome.
WTF Firefox?! Dwarves is a word!
