It's all greek to me

You sound like the typical bitter nebbish that was repeatedly blackballed from the greek system.

"Rumor" has it that you were beaten up several times trying to crash a fraternity keg party.

Is that why you keep PM'ing me asking what I'm wearing and what kind of candy bars I like?

Yeah, that's my view. My friend is a former waitress who tipped 18% on the total last night and when I groused about the largess (although it was at my local), challenged me and told me I had to post here for the truth. Ha!

Another Sign of the Apocalypse

Liz Phair wants to sound like Avril Lavigne.

(Spree: NY Times article about the "Matrix" songwriting team.)

Great Summer Album

"Electric Version" by the New Pornographers is a great summer album. I like this review of it: To summarize: Buy Electric Version. Play it for all of your friends. Listen to it at public nuisance volume all summer long. But don't be afraid to fess up when you're tired of it.

Identity is also worth seeing. But others on this board have said as much, so I'm not bothering with outside reviews or links.

I'm a former waitress who tips 20% on the total unless the service sucks. Seriously, how big a difference does it make whether you tip on tax or not?

90210 Reunion

I found it very boring. Something needs to be done quickly about Shannen Dougherty's teeth.

I kept flipping between that and the Charmed! Season finale to see women dressed in togas. And I must say, after all the build-up, vanquishing the Titans was a trifle too easy to accomplsih.

Officially, you are only supposed to tip on the subtotal. But seriously, unless you are eating at extremely expensive restaurants (in which case you should have enough money so that the extra couple of dollars shouldn't matter) then what difference does it really make? I'm an ex-waitress too, and I never checked to see if I was being tipped on the total or subtotal. If you are tipping 15-20% on the subtotal, your waiter should be happy. But if you are the kind of person that balks at shelling out that extra quarter by tipping on the total, then you are probably a shitty tipper anyway.

is that enough?

Incomprehensible. Useless Jenna wins by whining, again, this time that she needs the money more than Matt. If she's so phenomenally beautiful as she endless complains, can't she get enough cheesy swimsuit calendar gigs to pay her flophouse rent?

Waste of money too. She's only going to use the mil to commission a gigantic Michael Jackson-esque tacky great-master-ripoff quasi-nude portrait of herself that she can spotlight heavily in her new living room so that all can admire her perfection (none more so than herself).

Matt, by contrast, worked to get shelter/food for everyone. They should've just let Jenna freeze and starve to death.

Agreed. It made me wonder why I watched the show. Dylan/Luke managed to position himself with his arms around both his "ex's".

Shannon has developed quite a gap-tooth. It thought that didn't happen once one was an adult.

Does Kelly now bear a striking/disturbing resemblance to Trista from the bachelor?

And what's happened to all these people? Don't they have other jobs? I can't remember any of them being in any shows/movies since then, with the possible exception of luke perry, who must be close to 40, right? Although I do remember that Jason Priestly nearly killed himself driving a car--at least he's doing something other than trying to live off his 90210 fame. The rest of them are all like Steve's mother--the former star of whatever that fictional show was that always pissed steve off because his mom spent more time with hte show than him--living in the past.

Was the finale any good? Surprising result. Much like the end of Amazing Race last year. Makes you wonder how real the editting is.

What, you mean like going on a reality show as "the smart girl from 90210"? I don't know what you are talking about.

For those of you who watched the survivor finale last night and want to discuss it, please realize that some of us have yet to watch the tape. Thanks.



(and no, your desire to piss me off is not sufficient justification to spoil the show for others.)

I don't think that I said anything that was a spoiler (esp since I haven't watched the show), but if I did, I apologize. I will note that you shouldn't go to cnn.com if you don't want to know the outcome though, since the name of the winner is in the headlines.
