I have been on hold with tech support at work for HALF AN HOUR.
And there are 20 or more calls in the queue.
Ah, yes, of course. The gypsies, they gave you your soul. The gypsies are filthy people. Ptui! We shall speak of them no more.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
I think you should kick them in the head, ita, and yell EAT IT while you do so.

That works less well over the phone than you might imagine.
I kicked an instructor in the head on Sunday. I was assisting for him while he taught defenses against high kicks. I know I'm broken a lot, but you never need to ask me "Can you kick?" If I can't, I stay home. It's a thing.
For one of the defenses, he challenged me with "Are you really going for my head?"
So the next time round, since I knew what he was going to do, I made sure I clipped his ear, despite him having stepped way out of the way. It was kinda fun.

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.
I use the Message Center, but I come straight to the home page when I visit the site. Not sure why I've never bookmarked the message center.

I read the inside cover and started crying with laughter, shamelessly, in front of Emily Flake. I need to bring a copy to work so I can look at it whenever necessary. Which is a lot.

My bookmark is to the message center. I've never used anything else. Maybe because I only subscribe to 5 or 6 threads.
Very wise - next thing you know it will be chasing you around with a knife.
