Official SGT ADD thread
Forum rules
At the old Disney Hyperion Studio, the screening room where animators would show animated scenes to Walt for his approval was small, with no ventilation or AC. Not only was it hot, but the animators were nervously awaiting Walt's reaction to their work. Thus, the room became known as the Sweatbox. Even after the Studio moved to Burbank and elegant screening rooms were offered to the staff, the moniker remained.
Now SGT has a sweatbox of our own. This is the place to find and post all entertaining topics such as video links, jokes, games, and the like. A general rule of thumb is that if the thread is meant to be informative (interesting news stories for example), or a topic for discussion (like setting up a park meet) then it should go in the Break Room, but if the intent is to entertain the masses then it's home is The Sweatbox. I'm sure there will be grey areas at times, so if you have doubt as to where a new thread should go, just use your best judgement and the SGT Staff will be glad to move it later if you guessed wrong.

Don't be fooled by appearances. In Hawaii, some of the most powerful people look like bums and stuntmen.

I lived on the Mainland for quite a while before decamping for da islands. Honolulu just got a Nordies. It'll be interesting to see what happens once the locals discover their return policy.DisneyMom wrote:Wow, hobie, how did you know that?

HAHAHA! I had my salad there with a former SIL who LOVED that policy....hobie16 wrote:I lived on the Mainland for quite a while before decamping for da islands. Honolulu just got a Nordies. It'll be interesting to see what happens once the locals discover their return policy.
yes, she and kids would wear something fancy for an event and then return it....She and her Hubby at the time looked down on us K Mart shoppers, they only shopped at Nordies....Anyway, some time later, her Hubby got cuffed for getting a five-finger discount there!
I think she lives in Hilo now! ;)

Re: Official SGT ADD thread
It sounds like a return policy like that would invite a LOT of that sort of thing. Do they have something in place to combat the fraud? Like store credit, etc? Tags can't be removed?DisneyMom wrote:HAHAHA! I had my salad there with a former SIL who LOVED that policy....
