Did you follow to the earlier story about the same company (that makes Apple's ipods, ipads, iphones) adding anti-suicide nets to their factories?

I'm not sure if I followed this thread correctly, but what guys are saying is that Dave Thomas sold crack in inner-city DC in the mid-80's, right?

Extras needed for some Kevin Durant movie coming out.  I haven't heard of the movie but even knowing it's going to suck I still applied.

QuoteA fun and energetic family basketball movie starring Kevin Durant AS HIMSELF, a basketball star who switches talent with a klutzy 14 year old fan. When Brian, a hopelessly uncoordinated young fan magically switches talents with his hero, Kevin Durant, he becomes the star of his high school team...while Kevin Durant suddenly can't make a shot to save his life. But with the playoffs approaching, Brian learns that being a true winner involves working hard at your own game, and he tries to make things right in time to prevent a catastrophic end to his hero's season.

Anyone who had their eye on a 2013 Oscar might as well not bother.
Is this still Wombat?

Unknown Pleasures-inspired shirt on sale at Disney World and Disneyland
By Jenn Pelly on January 23, 2012 at 12:50 p.m.

Disney is now selling a Mickey Mouse T-shirt on its webstore inspired by-- no fucking joke-- Joy Division. (Thanks to WPRB DJ Maria T. Sciarrino for pointing it out.)

The listing on the Disney Store website reads: "Inspired by the iconic sleeve of Joy Division's Unknown Pleasures album, this Waves Mickey Mouse Tee incorporates Mickey's image within the graphic of the pulse of a star. That's appropriate given few stars have made bigger waves than Mickey!" The shirt is "created especially for Walt Disney World Resort and Disneyland Resort." We are not making this up.

Uhhhhhhhhh.... Does Disney know that the singer of this band hanged himself?! Do they know where the name "Joy Division" comes from?! Do they know how stupid this guy looks wearing this T-shirt?:

That dude looks like chris cornell if chris cornell gave his highschool girlfriend a promise ring, and later became a youth pastor.

But, I don't think our fans do happily lap it up, I think they go online and talk about how it was a bad show.

Have you ever wondered when Ice Cube's Good Day actually was? Who hasn't. Well now you can stop losing sleep because it has finally been discovered!

I FOUND ICE CUBES 'GOOD DAY'

CLUE 1:
     "went to short dogs house,
       they was watching Yo MTV
       RAPS"
Yo MTV RAPS first aired:
               Aug 6th 1988

CLUE 2:
Ice Cubes single "today was a good day" released on:
               Feb 23 1993

CLUE 3:
      "The Lakers beat the Super
       Sonics"
Dates between Yo MTV Raps air date AUGUST 6 1988 and the release of the single FEBRUARY 23 1993 where the Lakers beat the Super Sonics:
      Nov 11 1988    114-103
      Nov 30 1988    110-106
      Apr    4 1989    115-97
      Apr  23 1989    121-117
      Jan  17 1990    100-90
      Feb  28 1990    112-107
      Mar  25 1990    116-94
      Apr  17  1990    102-101
      Jan  18  1991    105-96
      Mar  24  1991    113-96
      Apr  21  1991    103-100
      Jan  20  1992    116-110

CLUE 4:

                Nov 30 1988
                Apr   4  1989
                Jan 18  1991
                Jan 20  1992

CLUE 5:
     "Got a beep from Kim, and
         she can fuck all night"
beepers weren't adopted by mobile phone companies until the 1990s. Dates left where mobile beepers were availible to public:
                 Jan 18 1991
                 Jan 20 1992

CLUE 6:
Ice Cube starred in the film "Boyz in the hood" that released late Summer of 1991, but was being filmed mid-late 1990 early 1991 and Ice Cube was busy on set filming the movie Jan 18 1991 too busy to be lounging around the streets with no plans. Ladies and Gentlemen..

The ONLY day where:
Yo MTV Raps was on air
It was a clear and smogless day
Beepers were commercially sold
Lakers beat the SuperSonics
and Ice Cube had no events to attend was...
         
          JANUARY 20 1992
      National Good Day Day
