Oh! Thanks for reminding me! I totally forgot. If I'd been thinking, I wouldn't have gone and had that silly concussion thingy.
I feel like we may need to plastinate you to keep you from coming apart at the seams. Maybe with a couple extra layers around your noggin.
Alanis and Ryan, not looking good: [link]
Why am I not writing my stupid op-ed? I cannot get my thoughts together.
I sometimes don't get people. Someone has code that isn't compliant with the acceptable contents in a field. Via a third party interface (since I don't own or run this database) I enter something that breaks the code.
Instead of a. fixing the code (really easy, you just need to replace newlines) or b. writing to the db admins, they ask me to ask the dbas to change it.
So of course I just forward it.
I work with a lot of people who do everything the hard way.
Also, is the fish in fish and chips just battered fish planks? For some reason, I always found planks weird. But then, I kinda find fish weird.
The truth hurts:
The Alanis Morrissette who deep-throated Dave Coulier in the back of a theater -- and then sang about it right before she misinformed an entire generation about the definition of "irony" -- would hate Alanis Jean King, her bangs, and her wilting perm. Last decade's Alanis would punch this one in the mouth and snap her glasses in two, and then use the shards as a sex toy.
I've never thought Alanis looked good, ever.
Ryan -- evidently not a guy who can be left up to his own devices. He needs Blade 4, stat. Which reminds me, I need Blade 3.
Vortex! I got distracted by work -- I actually have both the things you found, so I'm good.
What's a fish plank?
Traditional fish'n'chips uses cod.
It's just...a plank. 3/4 " thick, often rectangular, but sometimes some sort of rhomboid....they just were always called planks by my elementary school cafeteria.
The truth hurts:
That's not the only thing that would hurt in that paragraph.
But I had to do frantic figuring to decide what I wanted to request.
Yeah, I haven't quite settled on what I want to request yet. And I need to see what made the final fandom list. Lost is a repeat tonight, so maybe I'll do that when I get home from my comics run.
OK, so said person sent around email saying it was ALL MY FAULT that the format is screwed up. Because his code can't remove a newline character. Good lord.
I'm not that fussed, it is just rather comical.
