    Ugh!

    "A doctrine fostered by a delusional, illogical minority and rabidly promoted by an unscrupulous mainstream media, which holds forth the proposition that it is entirely possible to pick up a t-u-r-d by the clean end."

    That sounds terrible, but now I know what to do with my Christmas tree this year.

    Wow, that would suck. Having to piss and **** in a corner for two days wouldn't be pleasant either. Talk about farting in an elevator is bad...

    This...whoa!
    Loading up an empty elevator car with discarded Christmas trees, pressing the button for the top floor, then throwing in a match, so that by the time the car reaches the top it is ablaze with heat so intense that the alloy (called “babbitt”) connecting the cables to the car melts, and the car, a fireball now, plunges into the pit: this practice, apparently popular in New York City housing projects, is inadvisable.

    Not advisable but still...must be an impressive sight!

    Friggin' New Yorker articles are the most long-winded pretentious things. Jesus Christ. It almost took 41 hours to read through the damn thing.

    I feel for the guy who was trapped and all, but really, letting your life fall apart from one limited traumatic experience from which you emerged physically unscathed.... a bit excessive, no? Visit a therapist, get a lawyer, and move on.
    If you will it, dude, it is no dream.

    I'm too nosy and restless to be stuck somewhere for that amount of time. The only way you could keep me in the same place for that long would be to "confine" me there.

    Interesting story but damn, I stopped reading at page 3. An article that can be explained well in a couple paragraphs they have dragged out to eight pages :eek:

    The video was pretty cool watching him run around and continually spread open the doors to find nothing more than a wall.
