    What kind of advice?

    All kinds of advice. There's a thread in SE. You can submit a question to forumadmin@penny-arcade.com

    Clearly, blindly believing in everything you think might be true when you're in the middle of an emotionally-charged relationship is the only way to go into a marriage. I mean, you don't want to take a step back and ask for an objective perspective; that just shows that you're not ready for marriage. Because if you really loved your wife-to-be, you'd take everything she says at face value, leaving no room for the slightest doubt or rationality to creep in.

    I think you no longer have a clue as to what you're trying to accuse me of.

    Tube is the only person I know who can do something that seems incredibly annoying, frustrating, and stupid when it occurs, but in retrospect always seems like good idea that I was taking way too seriously.

    Edit: This is completely unrelated to the advice thing, just sayin'.

    Hah, Tube actually gives good advice.

    His worth as a person (rather than just an admin) has gone up. :^:

    What? Admins are people? Who came up with that brilliant idea?

    I meant beyond the admin role. I've been a mod (not in PA, thank God) so I know that your personality can't always show completely when you're waving the iron fist.

    The CTO has passed a time wasting fool over to me. A man who wants us to integrate with his silly goose of a product. And by integrate, I mean completely develop it for a small fee and then surrender all rights to it. In his e-mail the CTO states that I may give my uncensored and unfiltered opinion of the man's product. This is the best bonus ever.

    So apparently my state's senate is voting on this
    The bill would prohibit strip clubs, adult stores and other sexually oriented businesses from locating within 1,000 feet of schools, libraries, public parks, licensed day-care centers and houses of worship.

    Sexually oriented businesses would have to close from midnight to 6 a.m. Nudity would be outlawed, and dancers could be seminude but would have to remain at least 6 feet away from patrons.

    I'm not even a big fan of strip clubs but that kinda shit is just silly.

    Remember your audience is what I try and remind people when asking for advice. Technical issue, probably going to get good advice. Relationship stuff? Meh hit or miss.

    Doesn't help that a lot of relationship threads are simple "Hey tell me my horrible idea is a good one."

    The only good questions in H/A all begin like this:

    "There's two kinds of speaker cable but I don't know which one does ..."

    "My TV has several inputs but I'm not sure which one I should ..."

    "Will this video card be able to do ..."


    The bad questions in H/A begin like:

    "Now that I'm out on bail, I need some advice about how to interpret mixed messages from my date last night."

    That kind of shit is always awful, because it applies to shit already near by. In some cases, they will put one of those buildings next to a strip club and then the club has to close and thats just bullshit.

    People want to see titties, fuck there are worse problems. Very few states in the US right now don't have budget issues, but don't let the morality police stop their silly crusade.

    If I remember, driving through Kansas, it has been a few years. But there are tons of strip joints and such. I thinking for the heavy trucking population that goes through the flat plain that is Kansas.
