See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.
Oh, Kathy, that's magnificent.

My sister and her fiance are getting puppies! Meet Pixel and Ergo.
Those are exactly the kind of puppies Emmett wants.
Brief comment by Emmett last night indicating that he is better versed in baseball history than electrical engineering or chemistry: "Hey! They named a battery after Al Kaline!"

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Huh. An anti-abortion website complains about a pro-abortion article in The Onion.
When referring to the killing of her child she said:
"I am totally psyched for this abortion!"
...
"I just know it's going to be the best non-anesthetized invasive uterine surgery ever!"
No, she he didn't get the joke....
eta to fix gender - he used the picture of the female "author" from The Onion....

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 awesome, Kathy.
ION, why must both the responsible person for a system/service and their backup both always go on vacation at the same time? Half the department is out on vacation or in training or is otherwise unreachable, and they're all backups for each other. The users are getting pissed and those of us on the helpdesk are getting frustrated. And the sad thing is, this isn't the first time it's happened. It happens constantly, and I've brought it up multiple times in department meetings, but nothing is ever done about it.
So we can leave a system without support for a week, but heaven forbid (back when we were all field techs, instead of split up into help desk and tech like we are now) that two out of three field techs happen to have a single day of vacation that coincided. ARGH!
Time for me to pointlessly try to get ahold of someone at their vacation location again...

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
"Hey! They named a battery after Al Kaline!"
Oh dear.
I was so productive this morning! I was Taking Care of Business! I was Getting Shit Done! Alas, not all the way done. And now I don't want to work anymore.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.
The Sedaris clip is online.
