Talk:U-Haul lesbian

message: it is not a well-worded "joke".  i understand the meaning from all the commentary HERE, but when i first heard it on its own, i thought it meant the exact OPPOSITE -- gal in question needs a U-haul b/c she can't GET AWAY fast enough!
and that ambiguity remains for the male version.  does "what second date?" mean gay men never have any b/c their entire life consists of one-night stands...or does it mean they never have any b/c they too are NOW LIVING TOGETHER since the first?
STRONG KEEP (replace) on U-Haul pic, btw.  it is not "endless bloat", it is ONE THING which is key to the expression.
and add a pic of DeLaria, if indeed she is creator.  a little credit where credit is due!  66.30.47.138 (talk) 15:35, 4 July 2021 (UTC)
replies: text: "" –  I doubt DeLaria is the one who thought of the joke first. I'm a little older than DeLaria and I was out when she began her stand-up career in 1982. The difference between lesbians like myself (and DeLaria) versus those who have come out in the last 10-15 years is that I had the benefit of coming out when the Lesbian Community was thriving with lesbian bookstores, rap groups, coffee houses, bars, dances, concerts, weekend events, and festivals  — and in 1982 the lesbian U-Haul joke was an in-joke already.

Talk:Cypress Mountain Ski Area

message: The official name of the ski area is Cypress Mountain. There is no reference on the webpage to the area called Cypress Bowl. 174.116.38.15 (talk) 16:34, 17 February 2010 (UTC)
replies: text: Other cites can be found, as it's a very common usage and is as I recall the original usage.  I don't have the time to look, but "the truth is out there".Skookum1 (talk) 15:13, 27 February 2010 (UTC)

text: The ski area is now called Cypress Mountain for marketing purposes, although none of the three mountains bear that name. The ski area used to be called Cypress Bowl, named for the basin between the three mountains (Black, Strachan and Hollyburn). I don't recall when exactly the ski area was renamed. Sometime in the 1990s? phreakydancin (talk) 07:57, 15 March 2010 (UTC)

text: that seems about right; it was when the ski area was privatized and was come up with by the new company, as I recall, and there was some controversy, as I also recall.  There is no Cypress Bowl listing in BCGNIS, not even a rescinded one.  Colloquial usage was also "I'm gonna go skiing on Hollyburn" but that, as a usage, goes back to the 40s and before when people actually hiked up to their cabins to go skiing....(I know of someone who, piece by piece, moved not only a huge cast-iron stove, a real nice one, but also a big old-fashioned upright piano....on his back).Skookum1 (talk) 20:34, 15 March 2010 (UTC)

Talk:Aristarchus (crater)

message: Note: This article is named "Aristarchus (crater)" as part of the convention for the large number (2400+) of lunar crater articles, some of which needed disambiguation from craters on the Earth, Mars, Mercury or elsewhere, not to mention like-named pages on other topics. — RJH (talk) 21:11, 8 August 2006 (UTC)
thread_title: Article name

message: There are a few details that could be added to this article to improve its quality from GA to A.
* I believe that the statement concerning the anorthositic composition of the central peaks is debated.
* There should be some reference to the presence of volcanic glass in the vicinity of the aristarchus plateau.
* There should be one or two images showing the abundance of TiO2, FeO, or Th, as obtained from Clementine, LP, or Hubble.
* A better image(s) showing the various sinuous rilles, cobra head, and central peak could probably be found.
* A reference for the 450 Ma age is needed.
* An image showing the locations of the Satelite craters should probably accompany the table.

thread_title:  Suggestions for improving to A class 

message: This article has been reviewed as part of Wikipedia:WikiProject Good articles/Project quality task force. I believe the article currently meets the criteria and should remain listed as a Good article.
A few comments I had, outside the GA review:
*Use of dazzling in lead seems unencyclopedic
*Is "Wood's Spot" a common enough alternate name that it should be added to the article's lead sentence?
*Could the two named craters be added to the secondary craters table?  As I understand it, just because they're named doesn't mean they're not secondary craters.

Talk:The Omega Concern

message: I have always been under the impression that the guitar stand developed by Alex Lifeson was called a 'Gracie' stand. I have also heard that the Omega concern involves the ultimate fate of the Universe: depending on the interaction between gravity and matter the Universe will either expand indefinitely or collapse in upon itself.
The reference to Omega might also due to speakers measuring their resistance or impedance in Ohms symbolized by the Greek letter omega.  
Perhaps a RUSH nerd could shed some lime light on this.

Talk:Stella Street

message: Fascinating fact - there are two references to celebrity cyclists in Stella Street.  During the filming of Get Chisolm, Michael Caine's straight to video spy thriller, his ex National Service mucker, Jack Flatley, takes on the role of pizza chef Mario Cipollini (at the time, a top Italian sprinter).  Similary, Phil Cornwell's dope addled Dutch lodger Hank, is named Zoetemelk - the only other Zoetelmelk who springs to mind is 70's cycling dynamo Joop Zoetemelk, who famously failed every challenge he had to undertake in the BBC kids sports show, Superstars and was unable to do even one press up.

Any citation of the Top Gear music? 
Sure it has the same arpeggio, but it is a quite common arpeggio EDIT: wait, it isn't even in the same key, Bliss = C minor, Top Gear = F Major, the tiny resemblance may be there, but it's too bold a claim to say Matt used it, without any sources. Alex G 11:30, 13 April 2007 (UTC)

thread_title:  Virtual Desktop 

message: Do we know whether this is a separate application or just a feature of the existing Mac OS X window manager Quartz Compositor?  My guess would be the latter.  If so I'd suggest Spaces should just be mentioned on the Quartz Compositor page rather than having its own separate page.  AlistairMcMillan 21:28, 8 August 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: I'm not sure if Spaces will be presented as an application. But I think it will be regarded as such by lay users of Mac OS X. The majority of new features unveiled during the recent keynote were applications (except for Core Animation), Spaces was, to my impression, treated more or less as a standalone application (it has it's own icon and name). The same goes for Exposé, which you proposed to merge as well, I just noticed. I think both Exposé and Spaces will generally be seen as standalone applications. A regular Mac user will refer more often to something like Exposé, than using a feature of the Quartz Compositor. However, that fact needs to mentioned in both articles if the decision will be not to merge. mensch • t 00:46, 9 August 2006 (UTC)

Vsmith (talk) 01:27, 19 July 2015 (UTC)
replies: text: That's a fair question to ask Vsmith. I added this information to the section because it is called "In popular culture". Perhaps I'm wrong but my brain interprets "In popular culture" to literally mean where has the subject of this article appeared in popular culture. Video games, and the Fallout series, are very popular among the video game community - a community that according to an industry report by Spil Games is "more than 1.2 billion... worldwide" (http://venturebeat.com/2013/11/25/more-than-1-2-billion-people-are-playing-games/) - that's almost a quarter of the earth's population. There appears to be no indication from what I've seen that "In popular culture" implies "an impact on the town". Quite honestly I never heard of Searchlight Rag; a catchy tune after listening to it I must say. I'm also positive most people my age and less have never heard of this song. But if you asked "Have you heard about Fallout: New Vegas?" They would likely reply, "Yeah. That's a video game based in Las Vegas with casinos." To which you could add, "The small mining town of Searchlight is one of the featured towns." That is basically what I did. Anyhow, I do appreciate the additional information you provided.
