Although, I suspect, not so much dodging "Streetcars" as such, but "Arlington undertaking the project of building a Streetcar system"...
Especially while trying to wrest funds from Southern-that-is-Most-of-Virginia.

Dwarf Fortress implements castration-based gameplay
the short stroke game engine thread is that way

All breeding also occurs within touch range now
...oh, make your own Dwarf Fortress players joke here.

I would have also accepted:
>Good ideas
>castration
I think these are incompatible

I couldn't find an Epic Win topic and was too lazy to make one so this will have to go here instead,

Good idea:
This weekend I cleaned out the kitchen cabinets and found shitloads of partial bottles of hot sauce. I grabbed a squeeze bottle and combined them all. Best...hot sauce...ever.
Bad idea: Now I have no freaking idea how to recreate it...

I tried to watch, but there was an Izod commercial or something. And the player said "Ad 1 of 2." I'm failing to see how anything associated with that link is a Good Idea.

A minute in, and first, I am surprised I gave it this long, but second, he doesn't sound entirely unlike what I would imagine a maudlin-drunk Adam would sound like.

I stopped a little short of that. I'm not sure what I'm supposed to be watching, but either way, I'm not.

You guys are really old farts.

I'm sad to say I gave it almost 3 minutes. Props for the idea, but the execution was pretty flat. Also, if that's the guy from Keenan and Kel, he's a lot funnier in a skit situation instead of live like that, based on my limited experience. ("Pussy on the chain wax!")
If it's the wrong guy, I guess my shoulder aliens are showing.

Hang on, you post some obscure radio comedy / drama sort of bullshit and we're the old farts‽

I don't think I'd've found that funny when I was 18.

It's not even NPR, it's MPR.

I jumped about a minute, and I only watched about 30 seconds, but that was funnier.

This would have been better if John McLaughlin had been the host.
WRONG!

There are some really funny moments in that second link. The first one was just from the most recent episode, which I finished this morning. I'm mad that they didn't put an earlier skit on Youtube, which was the Fresh Prince of Bel Air, done in the style of Shakespeare.
"Oh thine Jeffrey, DJ of Jazz!"

Then shouldn't you be letting Ben link it instead?
He's more of a Minneapolis than St. Paul kinda of guy.

You can make their manes look a little like zebra manes if you trim them properly.

I wasn't, but now I am. A little.

Well, I'd already changed the M, and it started out as half a typo, and then I thought I'd leave it in there because random.

Sounds hideous.
It was. I'm about to get rid of Snap Judgment, too. Usually has 3 stories, and only 1 of them is ever any good.

Ice is a terrible thing to do to a good single malt…
