I didn't think it was sad. I cracked up. The dripping sarcasm in that post is great...doesn't matter what affiliation you choose. Mark makes some good points. - Candace Holly
ONE WEEK TO GOO!!! Whooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo *faints* - Jaithas
...I'll wake you up on September 5th if nothing else. Lucky duck, getting Spore 2 days before me. I guess this makes up for the Metroid Prime 3 release being 2 months late in Europe. - Candace Holly
I can't wait... must do lots of work now to make up for future lack of productivity... - Shannon Jiménez
Acccording to Spore's site, the DVD will be both platforms - Nathan Allen Zimmer
One of the two most likely best mac games of the DECADE... only question is special or regular edition? btw i think from my research best buy has it the cheapest at only 60 for special ed. as opposed to 70 - Cecil Sandus
“too much squabbling today on FriendFeed. So...I'm going to do my version of free hugs. Right here. Reply and you're going to get some love. FREE HUGS (..sort of)”
Well Jody...better late than never, right? {{{hugs Jody}}} *hugs Aaron too because he posted* and..a rabbit eating a salad..just for kicks. http://mfrost.typepad.com/.sha... - Candace Holly
Don't think you can reach your arms around to hug me. Im a biggun'. - Adam Helweh
i missed squabbling? i miss everything. but don' wanna miss hugs. *hugs*. - Laura Norvig
*big group hug for Cecil, Mona, Kyle, Adam and Laura!* Hehe lots of politics and things got heated on some places, Mona. :) Hugs were required. - Candace Holly
I tried to use this site last week. I put in that I had "Chicken" and on the second page it said I was missing a key ingredient: Chicken. I love the concept, but this site needs a lot of work. :D - Haggis (Sean)
That and I want to stab my eyes out after looking at blue BG with black text. XD - Haggis (Sean)
She'll be OK. We are just waiting for test results to come in. She got a call today to see a doc on Thursday. Of course, it's worse since she's been a Nurse for over 30 years...so that whole self-diagnosis comes into play :P - Candace Holly
When someone in my family gets sick I sudenly turn into House trying to figer out whats wrong when it should be my cousin DR.Knights who should be doing it. I really hope it's nothing seriouse - Jaithas
“Best thing I read in awhile. Some kid saying "Metroid is a rip off of Halo. Master Chief's suit is better than the Metroid guy's suit anyway." ..Even continues to call posters "morons". I laughed.”
wow how many levels are they wrong on i count at least three. 1 metroid is before halo. 2 master chiefs suit is cooler *like hell it is*. 3 women don't have that part standard unless they got confused by arm cannon which is cooler anyhow - Cecil Sandus
I laughed but I chock it up to the fact he wasn't even born when the first Metroid came out. - Candace Holly
I think he needs a bit of retro game education - Jaithas
when was the first metroid anyway? 198? i want to say 89 but i do know zelda and mario came first - Cecil Sandus
Sounds like something a finance person should handle. We don't have a collections group in our company either, but if the finance people want the money brought in from a non-paying customer, they have to be the ones to go after it. - Nathaniel Payne
The problem is..the dummies who owe us actually requested my assistance. *facepalm* So of course I need to get their money before I can work with them and since they're expecting me anyway....ewwww. - Candace Holly
I did it for a living...for a cell phone company...for people that prioritize cable and cell phones over other stuff, like food. It sucked royally. Making people cry on the phone isn't fun. - Nathan Allen Zimmer
“Wow. The off site company blog is working out *really* well. We're getting a lot of traffic. It's so funny that I have to switch "roles" and put myself in the shoes of someone who is just learning the ropes of tech and the internet. So basic to us but to them..it's very valuable.”
"Yeah, I got to see the BatPod and the BatCopter only a few weeks apart. In Ohio (USA), even. What’s the deal with that? The planets must be in some strange alignment..." - Candace Holly
Waring: You may not agree with me. That's fine you don't have to. All replies must be constructive and (*gasp*) civil! Comments that start to throw the hate will be deleted quickly. Do not want! - Candace Holly
hey candace you still go on google talk or u not using it anymore - Kaloshade
to be fair though, I have seen more attractive females on ff than I have on any other microblogging type thing. Not that I'm looking obviously, I'm happily taken. - Zee at WeDoCreative
I'll admit Zee..I've seen some beautiful women here on FF. @Kalo - yeah dude let me sign on. Sorry..work has been busy. - Candace Holly
I demand to know why your name isn't there! - Jaithas
I'm liking this calling guys "chicks." I've been so irritated by being called a baby bird that I started calling fellas a word that's a synonym for "rooster." - MiniMage
“Some people are actually changing their display name to a "weblebrity" last name to get followers. Now, because that's freaking funny..I say we have fun with this! Everyone change their display last name to one of the following; Scoble, Pirillo, Laporte or, Calacanis!”
here's what I want to know, which one of the Scoble brothers has been more active on FF in the past 2 weeks. Lately I've been seeing Alex Scoble as much as Robert Scoble. - Thomas Hawk
I should change my last name to Pirillo, just for a change of pace...but keep the Robert'sBro there hehe - AlexScoble(Robert'sBro)
*ahem* Fourth cousins...twice removed or..something. This is what happens when I have nothing to do for the next hour but drink coffee. - Candace Holly
Hmm.. Haggis Pirillo makes me giggle. - Haggis (Sean)
I missed the thing about parentheses, been using this for a while, is it now considered lame or something? I like them - sergiooo
FF is indexed, right? In which case, this whole name thing could really do some funky things to some ppl's numbers/keywords. Just food for thought. - Stupid Blogger (aka Tina)
I was going to grab my DS and just sort of monitor a couple of things..but this..ohh this is so much more fun. Oh snap! High fives to Haggis and Morgan...and Hutch. - Candace Holly
I was gonna go with "Christ" cause I feel that's pretty famous right there, but there was no ring to it. - Steve Isaacs
*snerk* Reading a few names has caused me to choke on my coffee twice. - Candace Holly
probably alot of coffee if you ask me i cant believe im doing this :P - Kaloshade
@Tina ...I'm on the normal for today. It's just been a good day. Combine that with my regular caffeine intake and I'm rather jumpy. That and I'm listening to Rotersand and Assemblage 23. Ups Rahsheen! Kalo - win. Hehe Helen gets points too :D - Candace Holly
oh, come on... we geeks thrive on this; we suddenly become useful and relevant :P - Michael W. May (Joffi) via twhirl
No such luck. Trojan..he got it from a movie site. It's currently changed the background on his desktop to a spyware warning and he can't pull up the properties for the desktop. We pinpointed what it is now we just need to get rid of it. - Candace Holly
Castlecops.com FTW! I know you didn't ask for advice (and probably don't need it) but that's the site I use to help clean off crap like that. - AlexScoble(Robert'sBro)
I'd also recommend installing one of the free anti-spyware programs on his system. I like Microsoft Defender, but other people probably have their own favorites. Nothing other than NOT running as Admin will save you if you actually OK an install of something from a website though. Although some sites out there will do a "drive by" install whether you like it or not. Nasty. - AlexScoble(Robert'sBro)

“Haha. I'm cracking up. For those of you who get strange referrals from FriendFeed and strangely named lists..it's probably me. Don't be upset, it's all just having fun. Every one of you are in the following categories; "Dorks", "It came from the internets", "OMFG SHOOT IT" and "Srs Bsns, srsly"”
Poor Justin. http://beta.friendfeed.com/e/8... . I wonder if the FriendFeed devs realized this? I think they should keep it. I'll crack up seeing who has me on what list. - Candace Holly
All is good :) I'm curious to see what other groups come through now. I've seen Professional group too so far. I have yet to start using the groupings myself. - Justin Korn
Of course now I'm going to change the list names on a regular basis just for the laughs - Candace Holly
I should add you to the category "People on the internets that seem like siblings". ;) - Nathaniel Payne
@Nathaniel. It's weird isn't it? I've come across a few people on the internet that I could swear might be related to me. *laughs* - Candace Holly
Contents of the epic DS lunchbox (yes, it's a Phantom Hourglass lunchbox). A Phantom Hourglass DS carrier, a limited edition Legend of Zelda Nintendo DS Lite (yeap!), car charger for the DS, headphones for the DS, extra stylus, Phantom Hourglass skin, game protectors, screen protectors, games. - Candace Holly
total win as for a game suggestion why not tetris? - Cecil Sandus
tetris is soo retro i still have my copy and the first Gameboy must resist playing tetris. - Kaloshade
On the show this week: *Nintendo DS and new games coming* Generation gap...sort of* voice acting and how to get into it * Internet radio is dead! Oh noes!* How to keep internet radio from dying?...who knows!* - Candace Holly
My work set up..this is how I stay sane. Note the presence of caffeine right next to the laptop ..and the Mahalo mug (it was clean). Ipod, flash drive, bluetooth headset, iPod charger, headset, and laptop complete with stickers. Why yes that is a tin lunchbox of Phantom Hourglass but..what's in it?! (The lappy is a Compaq. Work bought it for me. It's for work use and darn it..that's one great laptop) - Candace Holly
omg is that a lunchbox?! edit: what's inside?! - Mona N.
Yes it is! I got a meeting but after the meeting the contents of the lunchbox shall be revealed! (You can get them at Wal-mart for $19.00) - Candace Holly
