    I question whether the researchers looked at my line. I ride the D train from 9th Ave to W4. It's a death match to get a seat either direction. Unless I ride in the middle of the day, I am guaranteed 90% of the time to never get a seat. The only people who are standing up whilst seats are available are large men.

    I used Sleep Cycle but I hated that I couldn't sync across devices. I have my ipod hooked up to my bed for sleep, but when I travel I have my iphone.

    There is no way to know if someone else will or won't step up to do the same thing. But you absolutely cannot destroy your personal life for a job that you are already starting to question. You will start resenting the job and the community to the point that you will not do it well enough to make a difference, and you

    There is a seal in one of the Seattle Aquarium otter pools. So you get a choice between the four sea otters on camera 2 or the lone seal on camera 1. Either way, you get some darn good Sunday night entertainment. http://www.seattleaquarium.org/otter-cams

    I want that Monkees Sweat Shift. I want to be groovy and fashionable in orange.

    I've always loved that Panera's food always looks as good as their pictures (unlike, say McDonald's hamburgers etc) but I got the steak bowl the other day and it was a lumpy, congealed mass of horrid, that looked nothing like the happy pic on that secret menu page.

    See, I'm the opposite. If I fall asleep without full digestion then I awaken at night from bad dreams or generally feeling queasy.

    I've lived this way for about 15 years now. I honestly don't see any other medical conditions and by now wouldn't they have manifested themselves? Are you talking about bad dreams on a full stomach, or just my eating style?

    I've been doing this for practically my whole life. I get quite weird (sometimes terrible) dreams if I have any food in my stomach when sleep. So when I was young I just generally stopped eating after about 2-3p.

    I don't have a Facebook (that I've ever used). I did reserve my online persona name but I've never done anything with it and I've opted out of every single thing under the sun. It's also using a fake email address that I've never connected to anything so I don't receive those emails that say "You may know _______"

    I hope Your Mother is one of the random women Ted shagged over the years and one day he opens his door to see a toddler on the doorstep with a note saying: YOU'RE THE FATHER, (rinse, repeat for the second kid) and then the show ends with Bob Saget saying, "Sooooo that was how I met your mother, only I don't know

    So dramatic! I think my last words on the moon would be something along the lines of "Bex is out. PEACE!"

    Doesn't work for me. Probably because I suffer vertigo and so any repetitiously moving object seems normal to me.

    Same with Princess Bride, I think if you're over a certain age and haven't watched Clue then you've basically missed an entire life of aside quotes and in jokes with a huge part of the geek population.

    I didn't realise this was news. Anyone who has watched both can very quickly see the lightning difference, and if you never figured out it was intentional then you don't deserve to be a Trekker.

    Weird. I use Favourite as a bookmark. Usually so I can review something later, like a link or a reminder to do or reply to something. Sometimes I use it so I can reread a funny tweet or a motivational one. I certainly don't use it to show appreciation for the tweeter. I don't care if it makes them feel good or not. I

    Well, he really died on the Enterprise-B, saving the ship and various people. This second death on the rocks was, for sure, saving other people, but he had already died and this was technically not his timeline as his timeline ended upon his original death.

    I didn't know that growing a stick/big one was a phrase. I always though growing a set (of baubles) was the phrase. I mean, isn't that where the power comes from? The bullets, not the gun?

    One does not simply skip into Mordor!

    I prefer Diet Pepsi in America. If Diet Coke is on sale or only available at restaurants etc then I'll drink that. Diet Coke tastes slightly "thin" and has less "mouth feel" than Diet Pepsi. I visited Atlanta for a few days and was so annoyed all I could get there was Diet Coke.
