Where's my Abe Vigoda stamp?

It's a common side effect of having a good sense of rhythm

While a tool that extends your reach is useful, when dealing with a difficult to reach spider, your best asset is the element of surprise!

Woman used as an adjective like this sounds so wrong to me (probably because it isn't an adjective). If you wouldn't say man voter, man driver, men reporters, etc., then why would you say woman voter, women drivers, woman reporter? Just because some people use 'female' in a way that you object to shouldn't make all uses of it objectionable. Do you want a world in which we can say 'male patients', but have to say 'woman and girl patients' instead of female patients? Why??

We had the Sears version. Just not as cool

Your argument sounds convincing, but given an infinite number of monkeys I could refute it

I still think his point could have been made twice as convincingly through the magic of buying two of them

So, what you're saying is ... sometimes there's a movie... I won't say a film, 'cause, what's a film? But sometimes, there's a movie. And I'm talkin' about The Big Lebowski here. Sometimes, there's a movie, well, it's not the movie for its time and place.

I'm sure it smells better than the ISS does, too.

I use Jerboa in list view, which gives me a nice, compact presentation of a number of posts on my phone screen. This is great, except now the list is full of left-right scrolling text whenever a community name is too long to display in the allotted space. This is very distracting, and I would love to turn off this scrolling

I looked through the settings, but I don't see a way to turn this off, or a way to simply not display the community name at all (not my preference, but I'd take it over the scrolling)

Can anyone help? My post listings look like they are on a web page from 1998

Edit: Now I see that the scrolling is also applied to long user names as well, and is used in areas other than post listings. This seems to have just started with the latest release. I really hope this can be turned off in settings. It feels like geo-cities in here
