Official bored at work / just shooting the shit / no rails to derail thread
Re: Official bored at work / just shooting the shit / no rails to derail thread
That stuff was really cool. But I can't stop wondering "who the crap let them do this?" Are they buying the whole city block? Did they tell all the local business owners "Yeah we'll clean all the graffiti off your walls. It'll just take us about 3 months longer than normal and you're gonna have a lot of white paint afterwards. And some of it will be on the sidewalks..."?
"And if he left off dreaming about you, where do you suppose you'd be?"
Re: Official bored at work / just shooting the shit / no rails to derail thread
Doesn't exactly look like it was the cleanest place to begin with. If the business even care, or had any say, I'd imagine having all of the surfaces freshly painted was more than enough to validate whatever annoyance it might've been.
No, literally, shock. As in electrocution. As in 'sup dawg, i herd you like MGS, so I put a tazer on your dualshock 3 so you can be shocked while yo shocked'

So, this weekend my GF came up from Radford U. to Gaithersburg/Germantown to see her younger wcousin test for his black belt at a WTF school. It's a five hour drive, one that she doesn't like to make all that often. The test was lackluster, the highlight being watching her cousin break three consecutive boards with padded kicks on his first attempt, all after the two instructors expressed an abundant amount of doubt in his ability to do so. I didn't have much confidence in him, myself, but I think his instructors were more surprised than I was. Not a single kid failed the test even though not a single ounce of technique was displayed in that building, that day. They went through the Tae Gook series of forms, which I think is Korean for Holy Fuck This is Boring. After that, they did the most pointless self defense I had ever seen. After some board breaking, they sparred which wasn't any less disappointing to watch. You can really tell where Bruce Lee is coming from after watching something like that.
And, that's not even the worst part of the day. Afterward, my GF and I are following her brother and older cousin in an SUV ahead of us on the way to Bowie, MD. We're on the 270/495 spur, stopped in traffic caused by an accident ahead of us, when a woman slams into the back of us and throws us into her brother's SUV ahead of us. Well, the Cavalier that slammed into us has only a few scratches, as does the SUV, but my GF's Corolla's front end was smashed in. That, of course, says more about the sturdiness of the SUV than the crash itself, but that bitch told her insurance company that somebody had initially hit her, and now they're not providing us with a rental. She had to take her brother's SUV for the five hour drive back, and now he's reliant on what few cars the family has. I kind of lost my entire weekend to dealing with insurance companies, concerned family and friends, and trying to find her a ride back to school.

Id' take that weekend over my best friend getting back with his ex who tried to break me and my gf up, get our other best friend jumped, and got her own flesh and blood kicked out of the house. And on top of that I am the bad friend???
A mans strength isn't measured by the size of his muscle, but by the size of his heart.
it's better to be a smart ass than a dumb ass.

*Scratches head* Sounds like when me and my ex broke up. She passed out so many lies, that I became afraid to go out in public for fear of getting jumped by her family and friends. Yet she still wanted to be my friend?

So working with virtual machines and having to wait forever on anything you try to configure is pretty mind numbing.
Also hurray for being given software on a DVD for a machine that only has a CD drive. I could just jump for joy.

My Mom's Hard Drive on her computer died an epic death last night. TOD was around 10:00P EST. It is undetermined if it was a Homocide or a Assisted Suicide but it was sad nontheless. The funeral will be tonight when I get home from work. We'll slide it into the cardboard casket that the new Hard Drive will be in. Rest well old friend.
lol That Hard Drive had to be at least 7 years old and it was a nuisance to get in there in the first place.
