Same here. And I went and read it three times because I was sure I was missing a word or just misunderstanding him altogether.

My god, this is gold.

I feel like that has to be $5k per episode.

Yes, the idea of starting this if you've never smoked before is weird to me too.

Starting out at 24 is not a bad thing. I don't know how much you were smoking but I was always a half a pack a day smoker (unless drinking was involved) and I started at 24mg. I quickly moved down to 18mg from there and then I think I went to 12 where I hung out for a while before eventually getting to zero.

I can't speak for anyone but myself but it's more than just a fad or hobby. I quit smoking cigarettes because of vaping and I'm extremely happy about that. I also know a few people who have been able to quit smoking with the help of ecigs. Vaping is a hell of a lot smarter than smoking.

There's a scene in Wedding Crashers that might help your technique.

So, is any place north of NYC referred to as "upstate" now? I just find it bizarre that Clarkstown, which is about 30 minutes from the GWB with a visible city skyline, is put into the same category as Albany, which is over 150 miles away.

Yup. I am 30 weeks pregnant. There's no way I'm watching this. I teared up just reading the headline.

Some of them are famous before being on the show or have famous or prominent husbands.

It's part of a franchise where they take a bunch of housewives (in this case from Atlanta), some of whom are not housewives at all because they have careers and/or are not married, and force them to film together in order to catch them gossiping, insulting or just straight up assaulting each other.

I'm no fan of Cuomo at all, but the people crying on local news FB feeds about his win are dramatic as hell. The top three complaints:

I just started reading A Good Marriage by Stephen King it's a short one though, and I'm not sure what I'll start after that. I have at least a dozen new titles on iBooks to choose from but I've been having such a hard time focusing on reading lately.

I can't hate on that.

I think I'm going to try to view the movie as its own separate entity. If it's decent, great! If it's terrible, well, that can be entertaining too. I mean, I did watch Gigli because of the hype surrounding how terrible it was. And I'm blanking out on other examples but I know I've watched several awful movies out of…

I will not be seeing this in theaters, but mostly because I'm averaging about one movie ticket every three years at this point and this isn't anywhere near exciting enough to spend $12 on. However, I will absolutely watch this when it ends up on HBO because I am curious to know whether it will be as bad as everyone…

Ok, he may not have actually felt guilty about his actions but I'm just talking in terms of him being aware he did something wrong and scrambling to try to do some sort of damage control.

I'm picturing it being something like, "I know what you did last summer! LOL" in reference to him picking his nose in traffic, but his guilty conscience went into overdrive and well, here we are.

Same here! I'm was already kind of scared to shower while alone in the house before I even read that story, so, now my attitude is basically, "Oh well, looks like I'm gonna be kind of stank today."

Sadly, I just tried searching on Amazon and iBooks for some electronic copies of Christopher Pike books and there isn't much of a selection as far as these older ones. I was going to re-read a few of them. I know I have some packed away at my childhood home along with some RL Stine and others but I didn't want to wait…
