Who acts in porn?
Very good point.
I wouldn't go into it thinking there was nothing to find.
Fresh eyes! Fresh eyes! Time-tested thinking, here.
Okay -- at least ten more minutes before I can consider heating up my paltry lunch.

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

That's kinda evil, bon.
I've run across a project here that has me snarling. I have to stay all vague about it for various reasons, but...SNARL. It's a big fuckyou-type thing.
Sigh.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
This reminds me that apparently a friend of mine came across some pornographic pictures of a hot classmate on the internet, and he's never sent them to me!!

Why is rare stake called "rare"? "well done" is relatively self-explanatory, but I don't understand how "rare" = "closer to the uncooked end of the scale than the well-cooked end."

ION, I hate getting research projects with a short deadline, feeling like a failure when you don't find anything, and hearing, "yeah, didn't think there was anything to find, just wanted to make sure!" This one time everyone conspired not to tell me that four people had researched the same topic for a week, just so I wouldn't go into it thinking there was nothing to find.
Oh, I freakin' hate projects like that. Not shockingly, they go on in the web/IT world, too. "See if you can get X to do Y."
It's almost always with an unsupported in house tool, and it's always wishful "maybe if one more person tries" thinking from the manager.

A nice rare steak, perhaps, with a dollop of pâté fois gras covered in bacon?
You would have had me if you stopped at "perhaps." As described, it's just too much muchness for me.

A true friend will happily send you naked pictures of people you know. I'd cast this soi-disant friend to the curb.
I can't think about work. Too hungry, and also because my mail server looks to have hung -- I clicked send on my last work e-mail a couple posts ago.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…
I sat there horrified as person after person I was with ordered their steaks and filets medium-well to well.
Oy. That's just asking the chef to give you an inferior cut of meat.
We also have a Morton's, but right next to it is Murray's, which is teh awesome and teh yum and teh sooper old-skool. I start drooling just thinking about eating there.

On a related note, I sat there horrified as person after person I was with ordered their steaks and filets medium-well to well. shudder I can't even go medium on a REALLY good steak. I can't really do rare either, but a good, medium-rare steak or filet? Homer drool noise!!!
Mmm...
You're not supposed to have undercooked meat when pregnant, so yes, one of the first things I ate post-baby other than sushi was medium rare prime rib.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.
That's kinda evil, bon.
Well, in the second story about conspiring peers, they were not competent conspirators-- I knew they were working on this brief, I knew the issues in the brief, and I knew they'd been researching for a week. So when they asked me to research the primary issue, I kinda knew they hadn't found anything.
