8/11    Do you always wash new clothes before wearing?
        \_ I do. My girlfriend does not. Not only might they be dirty,
           but I'd like to know how they fit after, say, shrinking.
        \_ Yes.
           \_ Same here.  Fresh from store clothes itch, and I like the smell
              of my detergent anyway.  Also when I make a mental note of any
              cleaning requirements (hot/cold, red dye, blah)
        \_ Underware, yes.
        \_ Yes.  I recently wore a new shirt without washing it in hot weather
           for 2 days straight (had to crash somewhere) and ended up having
           an allergic reaction all over my back which thankfully went away
           after 1 week.
        \_ New clothes?  Wash?  I don't have any experiance with those
           things.
        \_ No.  Washing destroys clothes. -average Berkeley resident
        \_ No.

10/12   In the same spirit as below, I'm going to be in the Florida Keys
        for a few days Thanksgiving Week.  Any recs on what to do, where
        to stay, what to eat.  All I know about is going snorkeling.
        Also in Miami for a day and half, if you have any recs there.

        \_ Wow, that's even more stinker crap than that ladder poop people
           keep flinging around.
           \_ You can debate how original the "ladder theory" is, and there is
              some chain yanking, but the basic idea that a lot of people have

10/17   Mervyns announces liquidation of store inventory and closing down of
        all of its stores
        \_ I'm a man. Most motd surfers are men. And we care about
           Mervyns because... ?
           \_ Because most geeks shop at Sears, K-mart, and Mervyn's for
              clothes and not Armani, Zegna, and Bloomingdale's.

4/11    Women infected with t. gondii toxoplasma spent more money on clothes
        and were consistently rated as more attractive. We found they
        were more easy-going, more warm-hearted, had more friends and
        cared more about how they looked, he said. However, they were
        also less trustworthy and had more relationships with men.

3/18    Two close friends of mine had a kid recently.  What is a good present
        for the boy that isn't clothes.  Around $80-$125.  Clothes ok if not
        something outgrown immediately.
