I remember that one. It's one of those--like a movie--that's still enjoyable but you knew what was going to happen the entire time. I LOVE commercials, though. I'm seriously thinking of looking into getting paid for my ideas on that. Billy and I have thought up some funny & creative shit--like everyone else. But b/c it's us, we think we're awesome and would totatlly rock the field. Paint me in a corner, but my color comes back.

I don't really agree or disagree. At surface level--yea, what a douche. But, it reminds me of when we had our tile cleaned and re-sealed. It was SUPER-slippery throughout our house. And it sounds paranoid, but I seriously would not let anyone in my house for the longest time. And sure enough, a relative came to stay a night, we warned him, and the next morning he sighed in agony. He had slipped and fell pretty hard in the middle of the night when he got up to use the restroom. Thank GOD he was family. I surely would have expected a lawsuit from anyone else. You can't be too careful. Having said that, emergencies are always different. As a cop you respond to emergencies sometimes. So an element of variable risk should be understood and accepted when taking the job, not looked at as a get-rich quick opportunity. Paint me in a corner, but my color comes back.

In Skymama's thread, jkm2500 reminded me of another one I thought was cute--not hilarious, but a cute follow-up. I don't text much. And though I can figure out most acronyms easy enough, the texting commercials are kinda funny. But the funniest was this follow-up. "IDK, my BFF, Rose."

I TEVO, but I do love when I catch a creative or funny commercial. I prefer Progressive, but this Nationwide commercial is hilarious! Paint me in a corner, but my color comes back.

Oh my gosh, if only you immediately thought of who I did when you said that, we'd be like---well in sync or something. Paint me in a corner, but my color comes back.

Yes, of course. I love irony. Blah. Blah, blah, blah. Paint me in a corner, but my color comes back.

I don't ass kiss, so much as bite my tongue--A LOT. I play dumb & sweet sometimes. I think he who is underestimated holds the upper-hand most of the time. Mostly I have fun with it--like not ass-kissing the uppers, but ass-kissing those who actually work for me. "Oh, you're the best! Thank you so much!" And yea, I like them, and I'm thankful they did their job, but...all they did was do their job and it's fucking easy to do that. Still, I find people like to be thanked and told they're awesome at what they do. And it's no difficult task for me to tell someone I want to do something for me that they're awesome for doing it. Soo.... Paint me in a corner, but my color comes back.

OK. I agree! Except, I have used the subject phrase on my street. I disagree when it comes to residential neighborhoods. I always do 35, 25, 15 or whatever it asks me to. I'm terrified of hitting a child, or worse--an animal. Paint me in a corner, but my color comes back.

I haven't even read your post or others' in this thread. But, this is the first I've seen your screenname and avatar and I absolutely LOVE it! Paint me in a corner, but my color comes back.

Why? Many people subscribe to the idea that a "healthy-level" of fear helps protect us. A surprising juxtaposition to such a person might be those who have no such fear of death and simultaneously take proper precautions to save their lives. It could be argued the fear of death (#1 perhaps) is what makes us throw our pilot chute. Others might then argue, "No, it's the will to live and jump again." And then we discuss "fear of death" and "will to live" and how they're relative to one another. This sort of philosophical conversation could go on forever.

I don't mind talking about it, but I can't say I often talk about it. My family and I are extremely practical. Practicality is sometimes confused with insensitivity. Paint me in a corner, but my color comes back.

'sprite pulls a "Britney" and chops her hair off!

Don't get me wrong. I've had that same reaction. But after two minutes, it's like, "Well, buying a wig would defeat the purpose, now wouldn't it?" Paint me in a corner, but my color comes back. -

I love it when you talk parity. Paint me in a corner, but my color comes back. -

First, I've had a couple drinks--typical before I post here. Second, Rehmwa is my favorite .commer ever. Third, to answer you question: No. -
I like when "genius-level" people think up ideas. I don't know if I always like when they perform them. Paint me in a corner, but my color comes back.

I love orchids. But I talk to anyone & everyone ALL the time. I DO listen well, too.

I don't often quote others (but I do read and have some favorites). I prefer my own words. The one and only thing I cut out and put on my fridge, though, I found in a Kettle One ad. Granted, I was going through a rough time. But, it did the trick for me. "Life is a roller coaster. Be careful not to spill your drink." It's funny 'cause it's true...about me. To me it said: Relax. Keep your cool. Remember to only think about that which you can control and not worry about the rest. And for whatever stupid reason it still works for me. I read it daily.

Go ahead and rock it, girl. I've had hair all different lengths. I've stuck with long (easier for me to pull back off my face) for a while now, but one thing's for certain: Once it's chopped, it's chopped for a while. So just own it. I have to say, there's something strangely empowering about the chop. I know a girl recently (before Britney, I must mention) who one day had semi-long, gorgeous locks and the next completely buzzed! She had no reason in particular, just that she'd "always thought about just doing it." Paint me in a corner, but my color comes back. -
Oh my gosh, I don't mind pruning at all! I LOVE it. My ruellas are so happy, it seems like they grow twice the size every other month. And it's not good for them when they get that big b/c the ocean breeze will blow them and bend loose ends. I actually LOVE how much better and healthier plants look after you give them a little time after a good pruning. We have several hibiscus' that get big and beautiful, but sure enough if you let them go too long w/out cutting them back they start to look ragged, and it's not good for them. It's like hair. You gotta trim the dead ends to keep it looking beautiful & healthy.

Exactly. I mean, I also LOVE scuba, traveling, deep-sea fishing (mostly we go in the intracoastal b/c of time restraints), etc. I'm usually down for just about anything I haven't tried, though. I always say, I'll try anything at least twice. Now that I think about it, we play a lot of board games, too.

Yes! I can't forget gardening. I have a variety of plants from low-maintenance to at least 15 orchids. I don't know what it is, but it is the most relaxing thing for me. I think I should become a professional gardener. I might then be the happiest person in the world. B/c, all my shit is planted. All I get to do is tend to it. And sometimes I tend a bit too much. I love planting & pruning and growing and getting dirty. Paint me in a corner, but my color comes back.

I'm into a lot of things. What I do on a weekly basis is go kayaking.

What's SAWEET is writing it with the little 3 in the upper right-hand corner. Get a clue. And by the way, I'm still pretty proud of that name. All the other math geeks had something totally stupid, like, "The Integers" or whatever. Paint me in a corner, but my color comes back.
