I bought a new custom title the other day, lost the tag and somehow it mysteriously came back tonight.

"Sign up to be notified when this item becomes available."

In other words - never.

Also, Amazom.com sucks donkey balls if you're not located in North America. They used to be great, but now just about any time I visit to try and buy off them I get "this item cannot be shipped to your location" because the retailer won't ship outside the US and Canada.

Amazon.co.uk and .de can usually get me most of the other stuff I need, but neither has Ted DVDs.

MY WIFE and I are doing the rewatch on Netflix right now and loving it. As excellent as the veridian tag is, after watching the episode where it's found out Phil did actually go to MIT, and his mascot was the syphilitic conquistadors, I thought that would be the best gang tag.

I'm long overdue for a rewatch, as I'm starting to forget all jokes that don't end in -tard, -knocker or -gobbler.

And thanks for the VD gang tag. I didn't even notice it showed up for a while, and then was pleased that it did.

Sucks it got canned, the show was really rounding into top form towards the end of the 2nd season. Between "DEAL WITH IT!" and Phil and Lem strutting around with their VD belt buckles while REVENGE OF THE NERDS was rapped over it...

It was taken too soon god dammit!

Professor Post's group at Maastricht University in the Netherlands has grown small pieces of muscle about 2cm long, 1cm wide and about a mm thick.

They are off-white and resemble strips of calamari in appearance. These strips will be mixed with blood and artificially grown fat to produce a hamburger by the autumn.

Legal's position is: we don't know if no posting killed the Better of Ted thread. Legal thinks it might have had high cholesterol. They're also floating the idea that its being dead might have been a pre-existing condition and that it might not have been alive when we started it. Apparently it was pretty quiet during its typing.

I still think "the Great Repression" is a strong candidate for the best 30 minute comedy episode ever. From the "smash him with the phone" bit at the beginning to Rose actually smashing Ted with a phone at the end, the episode is just pure gold. So many classic lines in one episode.

I think that is one of my favorite episodes. Though the one with Ted's brother teaching Lem and Phil to deal with it, is just as funny.

On one hand, I always hate it when this thread gets bumped because I know it hasn't been brought back from the dead and it just makes me feel sad.

On the other hand its always followed by a reference or two that sets me down another rewatch, which makes me happy.
