Well Twinings English Breakfast is worth a try. We used to drink it a lot until they changed the tea blend which we did not care so we switched to Everyday instead.
Although you might find Cyan's suggestion more convenient

Unfortunately I don't have a Trader Joe's nearby either. I'm gonna go for the Twinings English Breakfast from Amazon. I'm gonna try Salada Green Tea until it gets here though.

Someone please explain the fucking reference in this image. I see it posted all the time and I never get the joke.
When asked what he would do if he had a million dollars, his answer is "two chicks at the same time." It's from the movie Office Space.
Ohhhh, thanks. I haven't seen that movie in a long time and completely forgot about that.
Right click the file in iTunes and click "Convert to AAC" or whatever format you've set your CD import settings too.

Turn Flux off. This took me forever to figure out.

4 really dumb things that im slightly embarrassed to ask:
1.Am i right in thinking that you become a full member of GAF when you hit 300 posts?
2.Why do some members have tags? is it to do with being banned?
3.Why is Blame Space a junior junior member?
4. Why is sentry a Junior?

1. Yes.
2. They did something awesome or funny or stupid or whatever. Admins give people tags sometimes if they feel like it. There's not really any rules.
3. Because he's a dumbass.
4. Sometimes people get bumped down to Junior status (permanently) if they're terrible posters who make too many stupid threads. Not sure about Sentry's case, though.

Re 1, you also need to have survived for 3 months without being banned [which in the case of a Junior is a perma-ban] so it looks as if you have awhile to wait to see if you do so
.I recommend a good read of the FAQ section of the Forum if you haven't already done so and generally be on your best online behaviour!

Well I was promoted in significantly less than three months.
There was an early Babylon 5 episode about green vs purple Drazi (one of the alien races in the show). It was total filler that didn't advance the story at all, and so my family started calling all filler episodes of the show "Purple Drazi episodes."
I mentioned this in a B5 thread a while back, and bish or someone found it amusing. Fine by me; I've had worse tags.

I'm trying to think of an amusing riposte along the lines of you giving sexual favours in order to achieve that but I can't think of how to word it [hey, it's after midnight here and my mind is not as sharp as it used to be. Give me a break!] so just pretend I posted something hilarious, okay?

What's the easiest way for me to rip a bunch of vinyl's (ideally 320kb/s MP3's)? I'm almost certainly going to need to buy some crap, as the record player I've got access to is old. So, any recommendations on the hardware front for that?

What qualifies for the community section?
Why do we even have it? Why couldn't we just have gaming and not gaming. I hate searching OT just to find that shits been moved to community (or vice versa).
Also, I hate hearing my cat lick her asshole but I'd rather she keep that clean. Not a question, just a statement that doesn't deserve it's own thread.

From the site FAQ:
"Game |OT|s will now be moved to the Community forum one month after their game's release. Assuming a minimum activity level, notice will be given in the thread title with a "[Moving To Community Friday]" edit so that people know where the thread's headed. Threads that die out quickly or are rarely bumped after the one month mark may or may not be moved to Community at the administration's discretion."
Community is there so certain mega-threads don't continuously clutter the main pages of OT/Gaming. It's also why new news gets a new thread.

But... but... I liked their clutter.
Well now they just clutter a different forum
If the game has been out for 2-3 months or more, and was even decently popular, the OT is probably in Community.

GAF's answer is to start a thread and let everyone disect your actions and emotions.
I've seen how that can turn out and I'd rather not. Just looking for other ways to distract myself.

Do admins commonly lock people in Jr. status when they've already become member? I don't mind, I'm just curious if it's common.
Professor Beef

It's not entirely common. It's only when they've done consistently shown bad/stupid behavior, but nothing bad enough to get permabanned. Making shitty threads over and over again is one example.

Lately if I been having trouble sleeping I put on the headphones and listen to the mp3 audio from this video over and over:

Also counting backwards from 100 and picturing the numbers in my mind when I do it helps sometimes.

Hm, tricky. It's difficult to say too much without specifics but I do not wish to pry and I think you are wise to be guarded about this. I too have seen plenty of GAF Help threads like you describe so I fully understand your wariness.
However, speaking generally, I have found that distraction tactics will only have limited success for me if something is bothering me as much as you suggest. I have found that the only real answer is to ultimately face up to whatever is bothering me and get my head around it enough that I can be at peace with it. That can be easier said than done though and sometimes it can take me awhile to work through that process. Ultimately however I have always found that issues tend to work themselves out one way or the other over time but it can be a nasty passage whilst getting to that point. I mean this as an attempt at reassurance rather than as a trite truism so I hope you can take it in that vein.
Sometimes I know that I have something bothering me because of how I feel e.g. I feel out of sorts in myself and am sleeping badly but could not for the life of me tell you what it is but sooner or later it raises to the surface of my conscious awareness and then the real fun begins! :/ However you seem to know full well what the issue is so that is a start.
Since your are posting about this issue here that suggests that you do not feel that you have someone you know you can discuss this with in private and in confidence? If you do not have any family or friends that you would feel comfortable discussing this with is there an organisation that you could go to and discuss this in confidence such as the Samaritans?
http://www.samaritans.org/about_samaritans.aspx
http://www.befrienders.org/
Now I am not suggesting that you are feeling suicidal about this but they do not restrict their help to just people that are feeling that way.
Irrespective of whether the above has been of any help at all to you I very much hope that this issue and your current unsettled state eases for you very soon.
If you feel I can be of any assistance to you please feel free to PM me.

No, I think it was just a way to have larger pictures on the box. I think the tapes were in a plastic tray inside the box. Also could have been to prevent shoplifting, in much the same way early CDs came in the "long box."
As of about 6 months ago my fat cat's breath smells like he's been eating out at an all-you-can-eat vagina buffet in a geriatric ward. Around the time it started I took him off free feeding and started feeding him two measured meals a day instead to try and get him to lose some weight. Aside from him just wanting to eat all the time his behavior, demeanor and poop have all been totally normal but the breath has stayed bad. Some days it's worse than others, but it's always pretty gross whenever he comes near me and starts breathing all over or licking himself. Does he need to go to a vet?
Thanks this helps a lot more than anything else. I was finally able to sleep but woke up with the same feeling. Gonna try and deal with it today. Thanks again.

You are more than welcome sir; I'm just glad I was able to be of some help. Hope you are able to resolve it satisfactorily
.Indeed although I would say it's an issue at any age but will get more of an issue with age. Our cat has to have an annual dental check up as a condition of his insurance so on a recent trip to the vet he was checked and there was a small amount of gum disease. Since then we have changed his diet and he now eats dried food recommended and supplied by the vet that is designed to cut down on plaque and thus help in this regard. I do not know your personal circumstance or location to know if this is feasible for you but I have certainly been much happier since the dietary switch and I haven't noticed as much bad breath from him, if any, since we made the switch.
Of course the presumption is that the bad breath is being caused by tooth decay/gum disease. As with humans however, bad breath may be indicative of an underlying health issue that is not necessarily dental in nature so you may wish to have pussy looked at by a vet?
In any case, I hope you are able to address the issue to a satisfactory conclusion
