'Why We Fight'
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risque (and frisque), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.
Vortex is me with regard to potlucks. I can't abide them.
Our office went from having the holiday party at Morton's to a catered reception at the VP's house, to a potluck supplemented by an open house at the VP's last year. No word on where or when this year's is.
I have gone to the store for food and some xmas shopping. somehow, cooking should not follow that.
No word on where or when this year's is.BYOSlurpee in the alley behind the local convenience store?
Our x-mas party is in the office on a Friday right after work this year, which is better than our usual dinner at a nice restaurant because it'll be much easier to swill a few drinks, eat some food, and get the hell out.
P-C, is your account still active? If the notice you got was just a warning, I'd say lie low for a while.
Yeah, my account is still active. It was just a warning. I'm not going to ahem anything for a month or so, just to be safe. I know exactly why I got noticed (I doubled my active seeds and left it on overnight, and apparently NBC is cracking down these days), so I know to be more careful. Thanks.
School question:
Next quarter there is a class that I would absolutely take except...it's being taught by someone I know and don't really care for. She is co-teaching with someone I don't know. Would you take it anyway because it's a class totally geared for you, or would you not due to the annoying professor?

Heh. It was NBC for me, too. And I did the same thing -- I seeded for a much longer time than I normally do. And my Official Letter explicitly talked about uploading, but not one single word about/euphemism for/reference to *down*loading. Weird.
She is co-teaching with someone I don't know. Would you take it anyway because it's a class totally geared for you, or would you not due to the annoying professor?
Do you think you'd be able to take the class another term with a different teacher? Do they switch around? If so, I'd wait. If not, and it is knowledge you think you'd really benefit from, you may want to take it despite annoying professor. You can add/drop if it turns out she is not only annoying but impossible to deal with...? And the other teacher might be awesome?
Yeah, I'm leaning that way. I know this person through work, not school, and she thinks she is totally "mentoring" me. It's very annoying. I may have to push the ego aside and just take the class.
Vortex, thanks for the explanation. I had a suspicion it might be because of creating a record of some sort, but I keep hearing about cases where someone says they haven't gone near anyone, much less done anything restraint-worthy, when there's evidence they've been very busy.
