Okay, I will admit I have distinct ideas on "right" answers here, but I am ever-so-slowly trying to accept that English is an evolving language, and that eventually some "wrong" things become right just by virtue of common usage. So humor me - I'm curious. And I won't make fun of you.

No, really.

Which is correct? (As in, "He has some ______ issues.")

If something interests you, it ____ your interest.

If someone tells you to fall in with everyone else, they want you to ___ the line.

A definite winner is a ____-in.

Are there any idiomatic usages you've heard/seen that make you crazy?

I will add though that I heard someone say "for all intensive purposes" when they meant "for all intents and purposes" and I almost stabbed them.

i want to go dance tonight. i've been let down too may times in a row by my usual hangouts and now i'm full of musical frustration.

my reasonable expectations are 90s alternative, semi-mainstream 80s (will settle for 'sledgehammer', would rather hear 'D.I.Y'), brit pop, shoegaze, maybe some trip hop.... some goth is acceptable, i hate synthpop and modern industrial with a burning passion (which is why i keep getting let down).
i will reluctantly pay a small cover if it looks promising enough.

Okay, after conducting a very unscientific survey, I have come to the conclusion that debit cards just simply do not work on TriMet ticket machines, regardless of what TriMet says. I've tried a number of different debit cards, from my bank-issued VISA CheckCard to a handful of prepaid debit cards from as varied as places as 7-11 and Wal-Mart.

All these cards just simply say "AUTHORIZATION DENIED" when swiped (or in the case of one of the cards which is a contact card, tapped on the reader at a CARDS-ONLY machine).

Has anybody ever successfully used a debit card at a TriMet ticket vendor? I'm especially interested in hearing reports from the last couple of months, as this seems to be a recent phenomenon.

Oh, and before you ask: every TriMet employee I've ever asked about this just shrugs their shoulders. What do they care, after all: they get to ride for free, while us peons have to scrounge for change.. (end rant)

EDIT: Maybe TriMet just hates me.

We slept in yesterday. I ended up going to Freddy's around 3pm. Not very crowded. I figured everyone was there for the 6 hour sock sale! They still had socks in stock at 3pm though! We also stopped at the mall for a game for Scott. We didn't bother looking around the mall though.

Today I am getting my hair cut. It's long over due!! Tonight we're going to a SciFi convention. ONLY, because our friends' birthday shindig is there. Odd, I know...but she loves that stuff!

I'm starting to post more and more entries as "friends only" because I'm trying to sell the gag cartoons that I'm working on. Most of the publications don't want previously published material and, unfortunately, posting them publicly on FB counts as publication. Sooo... if you want me to add you as a friend so that you can read some unfinished/unpublished cartoons, just say the word. Most of my entries will still be public but unless you speak up some entries will be blind to you.

I would love it if you guys would 'fan' my Guy and Eva Facebook page!

Have more CD's than you know what to do with? Know someone with more CD's than they know what to do with?

I've ripped my library, so everything's going into storage and I don't need my racks anymore. Very nice all-metal Boltz CD racks, pretty much like new - non-smoking house. Holds 1800 CD's total, and will hold some DVD's along the top. You can't store this many CD's more compactly than this.

$650 to buy new - will sell for $200 to DP'er, can deliver. Plus, you can spend a leisurly afternoon reassembling them! Everything's there, plus a few extra rods, etc., that came with them.

Selling my queen sized pillow top bed that comes WITH TWO INCH memory foam and box spring set!

Asking $175 or best offer

Moving and I need to have this bed sold. It's currently sitting in my old room at the property I was renting.

I've had the bed and foam less than a year...the bed has been WELL taken care of. No stains, no marks; there has always been a mattress cover, bottom sheet, THEN the memory foam, then another sheet, and finally, the comforter (only coming off when washed.)

Bed is VERY soft and made even softer by adding the memory foam, which comes with the bed for $175.

U-haul out of the room and back to your place.

Mattress, memory foam, and box spring for sale.
No headboard , footboard, or frame.
