'Trash'
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.
Apparently he'd been trying to clean his laptop keyboard, and it didn't end well.
Apparently he'd also been trying to learn something about flammable materials in chemistry class, and that obviously didn't end well, either.
Acetone? Hair dryer? That sounds like a cheap flame thrower to me.
My favorite people were the ones who claimed their house had been struck by lightning and zotzed the laptop, and when we got them in, the laptops had tire tread marks
Heh. We had one user who ran "forgot" his laptop on top of his car and "accidentally" ran it over. We think he was hoping to get a new laptop. Instead he ended up stuck with a crappy desktop for two years after that because his manager felt he wasn't responsible enough to have a laptop. Oops.
We had another user who thoroughly thrashed his laptop and then blamed it on airport security. We were all like "Right, airport security took a hammer to your laptop." Unfortunately, he was an exec so he got a replacement anyway.
TV season is just getting in full swing, so why's this board deader than dead today? You people are forcing me to be productive.
Wolfram, becasue the wednesdays are kind of dead and crappy if you don't count Veronica Mars -- and even that was kind of average for most parts.
Tom, the keyboard. How does the rest of the workplace look around this person? No, on second thought I don't -- really really don't -- want to know.
I feel better about my keyboard now. My fluff is all lint, not growing stuff. And there's certainly no slime.
But I will shake it out, just in case.
Drive in wasn't bad. But I'm the only one in my department in so far. I took some pictures of the plume of smoke with my phone, but due to a conflation of strange tech issues, I probably can't post them until lunch.
That is DISGUSTING!!! I hope someone has notified his boss about his extreme NASTINESS. EW EW EW EW EW. Not enough EW in the world.
Hey, Erika: An interview with The Man Who Is Omar.

It definitely was one of those moments when you want to ring up a user and ask them, "Did you know that you were almost a Darwin Award?"
It is extraordinarily dark and gray outside. I may have to resort to turning the lights on.
Someone poke me until I do something productive. I just spent twenty minutes drawing colourdy stars on a cd case instead of studying. Procrastination, thy name is Jars.
