You can't open the book of my life and jump in the middle. Like woman, I'm a mystery.

GS: If you had to choose between kicking evil in the head or the behind, which would you choose, and why? Minsc: I'm not sure I understand the question. I have two feet, do I not? You do not take a small plate when the feast of evil welcomes seconds.

pssst. when brenda's boss tells her to do something, she responds, "by your command."

I think it'd be more interesting if everytime her boss finished telling someone what to do he'd say "THIS I COMMAND!" but that sort of changes genres.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Object oriented programming is simple. You use objects. Which can be oriented. Orient the objects in the right ways and you have programming.

Now tagless for your comfort.

Things I don't understand

  • irrational numbers
  • the appeal of Nascar
  • fat-free anything

What is even happening?

Half my job is taking messages. It's always so funny to say "Would you like to leave a message?" and have the caller say yes and then wait for a beep.
-t, are you able to refrain from saying beep? I don't think I would be.

Okay, with the "Things I don't understand" riff, y'all are earworming (not to be confused with earwaxing, although I'll add if the wax protected against the worm, it would be more appealing) me with Proverbs, of all things. And so I pass it on to you...

There are three things that are too amazing for me,
four that I do not understand:
the way of an eagle in the sky,
the way of a snake on a rock,
the way of a ship on the high seas,
and the way of a man with a maiden.

(I actually understand that last one, now.)

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I don't understand:

  • why no one but me knew I didn't need to be in the meeting today that prevented me from finishing up my training UNTIL IT WAS TOO LATE TO FINISH UP MY TRAINING
  • cramps
  • why I keep getting the soup from the caf, even though it always sucks

Hope springs eternal?

Or you are just really hungry and didn't bring your lunch.

I just discovered that a parsec is 3.262 light years. Where did the parsec (as a unit of measurement) come from? Why 3.262?

Or there's never a line.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

-t, are you able to refrain from saying beep?

So far. It gets harder every day.
