She is now snuggled up on my leg because I'm the only person currently in the house and she's afraid I'll leave.[/FONT]

[quote='Nehszriah']Next week's at Dallas though, so I sense that we'll be really put under the microscope now. I hope we tear up the Cowboys, no offense Texan people.[/QUOTE] [FONT=Calibri]Judging from the way the Cowboys performed last night, that might be a lot more doable than it might seem. Multiple ESPN guys have been remarking on how Romo was basically an on-field coach for most of the game, and with a center who can't figure out the snap count and a wide-receiver core who doesn't know any presets or routes, [i]and[/i] since Romo himself is playing with a broken rib and punctured lung, it's safe to say Dallas is nowhere near full strength right now. I'm honestly a little concerned about the league overall right now. I've seen about five or six games so far this season, and maybe one of them has been clean. There are way too many penalties on either side of the ball and the field; the little mental errors that are usually excusable are stacking up far more than they should, and there are too many tempers flaring and cheap shots being taken for no defensible reason. It seems to stack up to discipline issues. Players aren't disciplining themselves on the basics of their position, causing piles upon piles of those mental errors; and players (and coaches) aren't disciplining their attitudes in the gameâ??as evidenced in the Pats/Bills game, when the head coach mouthed off at a ref on the sideline for apparently no reason at all and cost his team a valuable timeout, which could have potentially saved them the game. The commentators at the time were absolutely dumbfounded. They had no idea how the timeout had even been expended. I dunno what to say. Is it the labor strike? Has it made [i]everybody[/i] dumb? [b]Edit:[/b] Just did a little digging, and it seems there [url="http://www.bostonherald.com/blogs/sports/rap_sheet/index.php/2011/09/26/what-happened-to-patriots-coach-bill-belichicks-second-time-out/#more-14267"]is an explanation[/url] for the bizarre timeout caused by Belichik. He was apparently over-worried about the time, and called a timeout to keep the clock stopped after the head umpire returned to the field. So ... hunh.[/FONT]

[quote name='T.O.P']Boo is like what happens when an unstoppable force meets an immovable object, he punches them both and walks away.[/quote] [FONT=Calibri]So ... completely ineffectual [i]and[/i] a logical fallacy?

[quote name='chibi-master']Well, thank you, Alla.

[FONT=Calibri]Welcome to the Boards' official thread of the Gridiron and Pigskin! Wanna talk about the NFL? â?? Sure. NCAA? â?? Absolutely. European League? â?? Welcome Aboard. Your high school team? â?? ...dunno who else might get excited with you, but yeah, go for it. Does your sport's ball look like [url="http://www.robbinssports.com/images/brine-official-ncaa-championship-soccer-ball.jpg"]this[/url] or [url="http://www.thefootballnovice.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/08/old-rugy-ball.jpg"]this[/url]? â?? You're probably a wonderful person. But kindly gtfo. But yeah. We don't have one of these, and we sorely need it. And to start off, I need to gripe. But first! DETROIT IS 3â??0 WHAT DEVILRY IS THIS I'll try to keep this short. I'm really getting frustrated with two of the new rule changes the NFL has adopted recently: the helmet-off rule, where the play is instantly dead; and the rule that moved the kickoff up five yards. And without going into too much detail or pith on either one of them, my irritation boils down to a simple observation. These supposedly "safety-conscious" rule changes are only serving to make the game boring. Adrian Peterson breaks a mess of tackles and runs 60 yards for a touchdown? Steve Smith makes an impossible catch in the clutch? Ladarius Webb reads Tony Romo perfectly and pulls off a pick-6? Too bad; someone's helmet came off, play stops. 95-yard kickoff returns for touchdowns are a thing of the past; either the ball sails deep into or over the endzone, or the kicker pulls it high and shallow to force the return and pin the opposing offense inside the ten. But our players are safe. And there was [url="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=enSYlCEz5VI#t=0m8s"]much rejoicing[/url].[/FONT]

[FONT=Calibri]So yesterday I come out to Backline delivering biscuits and I see our general manager, our district manager, and two of our shift leaders clustered around a spot of floor near the front door. Being naturally curious, I shift my line of sight so I can see that particular spot of floor, and I find that there is a lady sort of ... slumped on it. Seems there was an accident (or at least an incident), and so our store leaders are making sure she's okay. And, of course, since the all-pervading mentality among this [i]particular[/i] store's leadership is "what if I'm fired", they were also being very obsequious and slightly groveling about it. This bothers me to an immense degree. But I've only got four weeks left of work at the store, so that's neither here nor there. This lady was, for lack of a better way of putting it ... not .... slender. [spoiler]Oh the hell with it. She was fat. And not in the "ten pounds more than Tyra Banks' favorite supermodel apprentice" sort of 'fat' rubbish. Not large or heavyset or big-boned or plump or portly or rotund; I know several people from each category, and they are healthy, happy individuals. I mean she was [I]fat[/I]. Blubberous. Well-larded. She had a tiny, petite face and underlying frame, and it looked like her body had run out of room twenty years ago and just started going "...****, I got no place to put all this extra ****. Stick it â?? aw hell, stick it over there, I'll deal with it when I can." And, according to my colleagues, she stank, in the 'Meh, I'd shower, but I'm not gonna be out long, and I'm just gonna sit on the couch all day; why bother?' way that is unique to people of that ... disposition. My [i]gosh[/i] was she fat.[/spoiler] [i]*ahrm*[/i] So. Helping a newbie with dish work today, I overhear one of our other shift leaders talking on the phone about money stuff, and I hear the phrase "our insurance people are contacting her insurance people", and quite naturally I blink. Then I think [i]McDonald's coffee lawsuit[/i] and ask if she's trying to make a fuss about the fall. She is. Seems she has a broken collarbone and a bruised somethingorother, and she's trying to pin it on Hardee's. Nobody on the staff believes she actually fell that hard. [spoiler]Personally I suspect that, given her physical condition, any fall at all might have sent so much mass jostling around inside her that her weakened skeletal structure might actually have been easily compromised, if you'll excuse the pith.[/spoiler] My father, who managed a Pizza Hut for several years, said that first thing he'd have done was check the security footage for the front door, to see if she didn't just walk in, pour some water on the floor, look around, sit down, and raise a royal fuss; says lazy, uninsured people try that all the time to dodge medical bills. I'm totally inclined to believe him. In the long run it doesn't matter at all, though. I've had fun working there (when I can get scheduled to work), and I'll miss it a bit, but in four weeks I'll no longer care. Boot camp cannot come soon enough.[/FONT]

[FONT=Calibri]It appears as if [COLOR=DarkRed]Adam[/COLOR] has reached a decision: the upload limit has been marginally increased. The news post on TheO can be found [url="http://www.theotaku.com/news/view/1698/yo_dawg%2C_we_herd_u_like_submissions.../"]here[/url]. I'll be ... interested, let's say, in seeing the reactions.[/FONT]

[quote name='Boo']Option is shown together with Spoiler. The content is hidden in the box. Best thing is to not enter an "option" or to use an "option" like "about yo momma" which will end up like the below. :V[/quote] [quote name='Desbreko'][color="#4B0082"]This looks like a bug in the way IPB handles options in bb tags. If the tag allows for an option value but none is given, instead of using nothing, it uses the content value for the option as well. Usually this doesn't show up since option values tend to be used within the replacement HTML tags where the bad data is simply not parsed by the browser, but in this case it completely breaks the spoilerblock tag. So, two workarounds here, since I doubt this is fixable without digging through the board's PHP code: First, people could just have to specify an option value when using the spoilerblock tag. Second, I could change the tag to not use an option, but that would break all the current uses of the tag that already have an option specified.[/color][/quote] [FONT=Calibri]Actually, that just makes things clearer. The BB Code help page lists the general usage of the spoilerblock tag, but doesn't say anything about the option, so I didn't even know one was possible until you two pointed it out. In that case, I don't think it's a serious bug at all. Perhaps a minor update to the help page, clarifying the 'option' option, would work?[/FONT]

[quote name='Drizzt Do'urden']Thought I'd post one of me and my little one, [attachment=15219:IMG_7096.jpg][/quote] [FONT=Calibri]ADORABLE BABY[/FONT] [quote name='Vicky'] [url="http://postimage.org/image/bx0k1u2s/"][img]http://s3.postimage.org/bx0k1u2s/291580_10150220999257706_695717705_6527511_56255.jpg[/img][/url] [/quote] [FONT=Calibri]Good Lord, what were you thinking? That t-shirt is horrid. I'm calling Fashion Police.[/FONT]

[FONT=Calibri]I just noticed some oddities with the 'block-spoiler' code. Seems that whatever is put between the tags also shows up immediately before the block, and with the word 'Spoiler' slapped onto the front of it. E.g.: [spoilerblock]The quick brown fox jumped over the lazy dog.[/spoilerblock] Of course, this can lead to some amusing silliness with the effect, but it's still kind of weird-looking. [spoilerblock] is not contained within this block.[/spoilerblock] Any ideas on what's causing it?[/FONT]

[quote name='Sangome'][color="#9932CC"][font="Microsoft Sans Serif"]while I have no idea what Al's cooking up there[/font][/color][/quote] [quote name='Sangome'][color="#9932CC"][font="Microsoft Sans Serif"]- Contact Beth [SunfallE] via theOtaku [PM, email, or when she's hanging around in theOtaku's Chat]. [/font][/color][color="#9932CC"][font="Microsoft Sans Serif"] [which might be what Al was planning][/font][/color][/quote] [FONT=Calibri][b]Edit:[/b] I have been told by [COLOR=DarkRed]SunfallE[/COLOR] that she and [COLOR=DarkRed]Adam[/COLOR] are discussing the subject. However, nothing has been decided in any official capacityâ??so aside from noting that, regardless of the decision, there will [i]still be[/i] a submission cap, that's as much as I can tell you at this point in time. In the meantime, three submissions a day should get you caught up faster than you think right now (unless you create more than three drawings a day; and if so, more power to ya), so have patience. And always remember to keep the site content guidelines in mind. (^_^)[/FONT]

[quote name='Boo'] [quote name='Sam'][color="#9932CC"][font="Microsoft Sans Serif"]but I surmise it's easier on the mods that approve fanart/comics/whatever either way.[/font][/color][/quote] ^ That, I'm sure. It's only a small bunch approving the art and if everyone started sending in 10 pictures a day, the job would become ridiculous for something voluntary. :V[/quote] [FONT=Calibri]And thus the Auto-Approval system was bornâ??and yet that still doesn't address the question of [i]why[/i] the limit, which was the general point. Like I said, I'll be getting this looked at.[/FONT]

[FONT=Calibri]There [i]is[/i] an established reason for the upload limit on fanart, wallpapers, cards, comics, and such. However, right now I can't recall [i]exactly[/i] how it's worded, and there doesn't seem to be a page in the FAQ addressing the item. I'll see about getting both of those looked at here in the next day or two.[/FONT]
