Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

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

Dear matlab

Just because Nilly is not yelling at you is no reason to take advantage of her goo dnature and crash. Give her the graphs and no one gets hurt.

Sincerely

-t's submissive and loyal Excel program

The status is NOT quo.

-t makes her program wear a collar, doesn't she.

Not all the time. Just when it needs a reminder.

tommy, no, it has to run all the way.

I'm consoling myself with the fact that I managed to dodge this one without my whole computer crashing. I have a couple of simulations that are running for a week now. Last week's crash killed the very ones, right before they ended, so I had to start them over, hence the week-long run. Of course, I needed to have that data for tomorrow's meeting, but I can't help that - I can't rush the computer. [Edit: of course now I imagine a group of tiny pixelized cheerleaders, with tiny pom-poms, shouting and singing to the computer in the hope of making it run faster]

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

That sucks, Nilly. I hope it gets fixed soon.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Oh, and the really distasteful thing about it was that the product, which is apparently this, is some sort of miracle drug according to him. Shrinks cancer tumors, cures diabetics, eliminates pain, blah blah blah. That part really sounded slimy.

Yeah, I can't really picture a society where "Sorry, I overslept" is a good excuse to skip work. (But if anyone knows of one, please let me know so that I can move there.)

Hell, I'd be happy if I could use insomnia as a reason to call in sick. Granted, since I haven't actually slept where my alarm has woken me up in so long I can't recall it, I wouldn't be using the "overslept" excuse anyway.

How many toasters does Suela have by now?

I know she gets one for me. Anyone else here?

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

OK, we need to do today all over again.

Only if we can do it without the snow.

We get to do today *without* the bad parts, that's the whole point!

-t, thanks.
