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

I admit, I have one specific problem I always try to fix instead of calling, but that's because level 1 has never heard of the piece of software. Level 2 is often confused by its existence too.

But it's a really teeny proxy client, and doesn't break anything else.

The rest of it? I let them do. I am that lazy.

God, I want to listen to Smooth Criminal again. I've already listened to it three times this morning.

Not so nice is that I'm about to ruin a Friday morning for a bunch of people because of a series of unfortunate events and an upset foreign government. - shrift

The original, or Alien Ant Farm's cover?

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.

That's fine. There's a lot of programs that the users are more familiar with than we are, since they use them on a daily basis, and if they know how to fix it themselves, more power to them. I was just referring to people who will just start trying random crap until they've managed to break something else with no recollection of what they did.

Ann, that's a ferret.

What version of the Bible do they happen to be reading?

The abridged version, which leaves out "Thou shalt not kill" and "Love thy neighbor."

AAF. I can't think of another cover where I didn't dislike the original where I adore the new version so much.

I figure that deaing with someone who was in desktop support, but doesn't miss it has the advantage that -- I really don't want to fix stuff myself, but I can usually tell when it's easy and something I can do.

Yup. It's on my "Feel the Burn" playlist on the iPod. It's a fun song.

Happy Birthday, Kalshane!

Health and comfort to your aunt and family, tiggy.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

What Jen said, on both counts.

OMG you guys, I'm so full of Indian food I need a nap ASAP.

In other OMGWTFBBQ news, I was in a meeting earlier where a staff person said that as soon as someone successfully completes her program, she deletes them from the database. Wow, because there's no reason to know what went on last year, right?
