Finally got to use the new home gym. Me gusta.

Also, the really hot roommate upstairs came down to do laundry while I was in the middle of a workout. Double win.

Does anybody have recommendations for a flower delivery service in WNY?

I've had excellent experiences with teleflora.com They'll even do same day. They have select florists in the area that they use to deliver the flowers.

I think its similar to FTD.com and 1800flowers.com, but I don't have a reason to change to one of those, so I don't.

Watch out with FTD and 1800flowers that you select a delivery item. They have both florist delivery and box delivery (UPS/FedEx). I think proflowers.com is also box only. They have great flowers, just the presentation sucks.

Let's just say, I'm pretty sure I'm not her "type".

This is for another lucky young lady.

You're not thinking...conversion?

You know those women who for some reason find stupid, unemployed, arrogant, ignorant jerks who keep the stickers on their flat brimmed hats and wear their pants around their knees attractive? She's one of those girls.

I've had to kick at least two of her "friends" out of our apartment for being loud drunken *******s. Thankfully she doesn't seem to be attracted to 6'4" body builders. :laugh:

Thanks, I'll check them out. I'm definitely not interested in her getting a bunch of flowers smashed into a Fedex box. :laugh:

Why do all these damn authors keep rewriting different damn versions of classic books instead of making up their own damn ideas! I don't CARE that Jane Austen and Charlotte Bronte are public license, STOP rewriting Jane Eyre and Pride and Prejudice and adding murder stories and sex scenes and the servants point of view and WRITE YOUR OWN DAMN ****!

[/rant]

Well I feel better now, what are we talking about? Flowers and lesbians?

If browsing reddit has shown me anything, it's that copying and slightly modifying something popular is almost certainly more likely to be successful than an original idea while also taking less work.

And it continues to make money for these people and just encouraging them...

Even 50 Shades of Grey started as a Twilight Fanfiction and now the woman is a multi-millionaire.

Will fix everything
2 feet of snow in 24 hours in a city that isn't equipped to handle it certainly would be considered life threatening. It's not the volume of snow that's the problem, its the capacity to quickly and safely clean the streets that will be the issue.

You just have to know where to go on that site for actual useful material. The default subs? Puke. Filled with 15 year olds making one liners for fake Internet points.

What do you mean? You don't love the constant overuse of memes and comment threads just turning into puns?!

Also, OMG I can't believe you told people about reddit! It's a super secret club!

I assume you partake in the nsfw subs? :naughty:

How's the weather like in Buffalo? I hear that the east coast is getting hit pretty hard.

(Meanwhile, it's sunny here in Vancouver!)

It's snowing, few inches already, probably a few more...probably will make for some slick driving but otherwise no biggie.

A friendly reminder: reddit literally apologized to swathes of pedophiles and perverts when it had to start cracking down on all the underage and jailbait pictures circulated in some of its more "popular" subs.

Anyways, just got off the phone with SUNY Geneseo and I got the job :)
