I decided to skip it this year – still annoyed the Pack lost out in such a messy end to their game.

Ha ha @Ahhh Girl , the purple was not related to my previous discussion on where people hide their chocolate – nice idea though :)

@meanmistermustard , the chat program I use with HK lady has some really nice icons you can use – she favours a set with a purple-haired girl which are really expressive and I just love to wake up with a “Good Morning” from the purple girl.

Nope. I used to go to a friend’s anti-Superbowl party where we’d watch the ads and Puppy Bowl (I wasn’t kidding about that), but after a few years, she gave in to the people who wanted to watch the game, so I stopped going. That was weird. Why would you go to an anti-Superbowl party and demand to see the game?

I am (watching the Super Bowl) but have to be up in the morning so wont see it thru. Not as exciting as i remember last years to be – just as there is a touchdown and the scores are back tied.

Did you just see Paul at the Super Bowl? The announcer said, “and we have royalty from Liverpool”. :-)

I did catch that.  And I knew immediately that @Ahhh Girl would point it out on the forum.

Most of the chat programs have ‘stickers’. They are similar to our smileys and so on here, but some are very nicely illustrated and show a nice range of emotions. They come in sets that have the same character in them looking angry, sad, surprised, happy and so on.

Wow – the Seahawks are just as bad as the Pack – just caught the last 2 minutes – what an awful play.

I also avoid it at all costs.
(Well not really because that would mean I’m actively thinking about it.)

I’d go to @parlance’s revenge real anti-Super Bowl party!
(Why did autocorrect capitalize and space Super Bowl like I actually care about it?!)
The commercials are the only worthwhile part, and if I remember correctly from recent years, they haven’t been that good lately either.

I’m always hating on football here, but that last half of the game was fairly entertaining, as those things go. Too bad about the result – I really wanted to harass a Pats-worshipping friend.

The Super Bowl was great. A close game that was decided with only 20 seconds left. With one or two exceptions, the commercials were an incredible let down. Oh, and I won the office block pool for the final score. Woo hoo!

Is it normal when building flatpack furniture to have one screw remaining at the end? 

The answer is yes by the way as i have and i want to live in blissful ignorance – until it collapses that is.

ahdn_paul_06 It would be good if they have a spare since screws are very hard to find when you drop them.

Was this IKEA furniture? I’m horrible with putting together anything. I did manage to build a desk once, but I had a handyman build my bookcases, seeing as their 8 feet tall.

Yip. My idea of hell is going to IKEA for a long period of time. I quite enjoy putting it all together, i hate going to their stores.
