I think it is solely because of filing. So much paperwork is involved for even the smallest activity, they needed an efficient way to put away and retrieve records. Found this link off google that you mind find interesting. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ISO_8601

Yup. I've become much more conscious of the space I take up since becoming fat. I try to keep my knees narrower than hip width rather than shoulder out of courtesy. With this in mind, I have no problem fighting for the space I'm technically allowed when someone overreaches and is a dick about it. Rant all you want…

Before joining the military I would write is as I would speak it so December 29, 2014 becomes 12/29/2014. Since joining the military, primarily do YYYY/MMM/DD, so today becomes 2014DEC29. I prefer the latter as it makes filing easier.

Deadspin is part of Gawker; dealing drugs is completely fine.

They've retconned my beloved BatCass out as well? Fucking hell, I'm glad I stopped buying anything outside the Vertigo line.

I haven't read regularly since '09. That's how they explained it? I remember her wiggling a toe at the end of Birds of Prey before 52 happened. I just assumed she went through enough rehab to get back to her old self finally.

They fucking erased the Oracle aspect of Babs?! What a way to ruin a phenomenal character!

Ho Ho Ho, now I have a machine gun.

Wish I could be there for the exchanges. The cringing from elders being held accountable by children is always delightful.

Don't visit has worked well the last two years. Might see how long I can ride this wave.

Ex friend's wife, both are white, named their kids:

Brookelynne Delilyah pronounced Brooklyn Delilah
Brauntley Chaese pronounced Brantley Chase

His best movie, to me, will always be "Lucky Number Sleven". Just a fun ride, that one.

I hear the term statuesque and I focus on it being used as a synonym for dignity, impressive and majestic. I forget it also relates to beauty. Understand where you're coming from now.

I completely disagree with you about being imposing and statuesque. She's called The Wall because no matter what is going on, she stands there without breaking. Found an assembled clips post on youtube showing how she backs down from no one in the Justice League (solely Batman after the first bit).

I'm upset as CCH Pounder is The Wall. Hope Viola knocks it out of the park.

Looks like Madara vs. Hashirama. 9 Tails with Susano'o surrounding it and Hashirama's Wood Human and Wood Dragon.

They're not better, they were just more difficult. So many old games were about timing and punishing you for not getting it exactly right. Modern games are much more lenient.

Average white guy from the South. I've had managers, servers and bussers come up and shoot the shit with me countless times. When I was a teenager, it would generally be about College football, High School football, pro sports, school or about the band that was emblazoned on my shirt. Early 20s to now was all of that…

6 years too late.

Was pulling for Gordon, but wholeheartedly agree about Fitz.

When I was a kid, I always hoped a ump would do this at the All Star game. Thanks a lot Selig.
