Punishingly Intricate

Their office cat, Monty, occasionally tries to liberate food from the bags they sell. He thoughtfully picked a bag of the diabetic food this time. So they gave me a bag decorated with a ribbon and tape over the tiny hole, reading " Happy Holidays to Mister Kitty, Love Monty."

HEY! I was in there buying food the day he did that and had to buy a big bag instead of the smaller bag I normally get because of him. Why no free food for me?! I spent about 1 brazillion dollars on vet care there this year. I am so giving them shit about that the next time I'm in.

Mister Kitty? Is a slut. I think that's why. Or maybe because he nearly died this summer. Next time, ask Monty to do that while your guys are boarding... (pssst, I also brought them cookies not long ago...)

I love Monty. When he's out, he always tries to sit on MK.

Ooh cookies good idea! That did remind me that I have to call and see if I can board the Swifty over MLK weekend.

I love that Monty too! He has the perfect personality for an office cat.

Frail my heart apart and play me a little Shady Grove

Toilet Terror vs. Toilet~ma. Which will win?

I'm putting my money on the ~ma.

My office is scary-quiet this week. Now would be a good time to reformat ugly tables.

Is it morally wrong to participate in a group effort to overload the server of a site that you find reprehensible?

I don’t know from morals, but the original post seemed fine to me. A link was posted. The person posting the link encouraged people to view it for malicious reasons, but meh.

Though I have filed that away for future viral marketing schemes.

Further down, where they’re getting into orchestrated DOS attacks, I probably wouldn’t say “immoral,” but I would say “illegal and idiotic.” I don’t know what exactly they think they’re accomplishing, honestly.

It does remind me of an ethically murky scheme someone had a while back. Let me see if I can find it.
