I just got a new Yellow Pages dropped off at my front door.

Re: Random Thoughts Thread
We used to get several of those a year when I lived in Auburn. First, we would get Auburn's. Then we would get the Auburn-Opelika one (Opelika being Auburn's sister city that is right next door). And then we would get one for the county around Auburn.Luke wrote:I just got a new Yellow Pages dropped off at my front door.

Georgia needs to stop stealing city names from Maine.
I can't even tell you how many times I've been derping around the internet - "oh look a great new restaurant just opened in Augusta!".... oh... Augusta, Georgia.
Don't even get me started on Portland, Oregon. Bastards.

Stealing from Maine? Wait a minute, which one was an original colony, and which one was Massachusetts' bitch?BoneSnapDeez wrote:Georgia needs to stop stealing city names from Maine.

I could understand our elders may needing a Yellow Pages, but the print is too darned small for them to read. I've used the Yellow pages as packing paper when moving, and that is about the only use I can see fit for it.Ack wrote:

I realized that Yellow Books do serve more purposes:
Rip it in half to impress your friends (which you can't do, but you can try and make your friends laugh and possibly give yourself a hernia)
Makes a great door stop
Find funny names for prank calls
Charcoal starter for a chimney
...that's about it.
