Are you related to Lisa!?

Welcome to PF :smile:
 
Welcome! I hope you stay a while!
 
Welcome to PF.

Please leave your sanity by the door.
 
If I, and a few others around here, share our experiences with you, you'll run screaming from the site and never be heard from again.
It's best if you just ease into it and find out about us the hard way. :devil:

How many neophytes have we scared off in the past month anyway? Quite a few I imagine. One more couldn't hurt :devil: .

BOO!
 
Yeah, I must say that our newbie retention record is pretty dismal. :frown:
 
Welcome to PF, Em!ly!

You may want to start at General Discussion to get to know the other members, or you can jump right into the best scientific discussion you'll find on the web.

Let's start here: I presume you like science since you're here, so which type of science are you interested in?
 
welcome, watch out, these guys are pretty good at dropping your ego XD

:smile: Yes, that sort of advice seems mandatory now that all the guru award winners have wings on their lapels. :biggrin:

Welcome to PF Em!ly. What are your interests? There's really something for everyone here...everything from homework help to serious science discussions to the insane asylum down here in the lounge. :biggrin:

You study chickens?

I saw this commercial for a fast-food place that sells chicken "strips" as opposed to chicken "nuggets". They had a team of scientists looking at a chicken trying to determine where the nuggets were. The tag line was "No one has ever been able to find the nuggets on a chicken". I assume by that statement that there is still a lot of ongoing research in this area.

Oh well... no matter how fowl a subject it might be, I guess somebody has to keep pecking away at it.

Oh crap; what have I done? Now Artman will be playing with this for a week.

And it probably tastes about the same.

That was for Carls Jr. i think... It was hilarious so it had to have been from Carls jr. Carls jr has a monopoly on all hilarious fast food commercials.

In May 2005, Carl's Jr. introduced its "Spicy BBQ Six Dollar Burger" in a television advertisement, which featured Paris Hilton in a provocative swimsuit soaping up a Bentley automobile and crawling all over it before taking a big bite out of the hamburger.
The commercial has drew criticism from the Parents Television Council. The research director for the PTC, Melissa Caldwell, says: "This commercial is basically soft-core porn. The way she moves, the way she puts her finger in her mouth—it's very suggestive and very titillating."

Andy Puzder, CEO of Carl's Jr., responded that the group needs to "get a life," and that it is a "model in a swimsuit washing a car."
:smile: :smile: :smile: :smile: :smile:

There's a Carl's Jr. in Guam. :smile: My first. VERY good, like far Burger Kingist (I believe fast food is a bicameral system governed by dominantly two parties—the Burger Kingist, and McDonald'sist. Most fast food hamburgers have one of these two flavors.)

Wendy's - Burger Kingist
Jack in the Box - McDonald'sist
