Yeah, but you're an amateur fry cook and I come from a long line of fry cooks that don't live past 25.

I look more rad than Lutheranism

I'm taking a deep breath and giving myself a mental shake to get off the semantics thing.

(If an explanation helps at all, chatty!co-worker is the most pedantic, literal-minded human being I have ever encountered, and he deliberately obfuscates because of semantics. Daily. In fact, every night when we leave work, he says "See you tomorrow...maybe." When someone asked him why the "maybe" he said "You can't know we'll both be here tomorrow." He also says things like "*Try to* have a good evening," rather than "Have a good evening," because the latter is apparently laden with expectations and pressure.

He might be trying to be funny, but after 5 years, every day -- it's not funny. If someone asks "Do you know what time it is?" he replies, without fail, "Yes."

So semantics -- while they are significant in many cases -- get on my last nerve. And that is why I'm in serious need of a bitch-slapping this morning. Er, afternoon.)

Again, sorry. Go Team Vitamins! Or -- Go Team Adequate Dietary Intake!

How 'bout those Bears? How 'bout that weather, huh? Uh....look! Cats!

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

Uh....look! Cats!

Awww, man. Let's get back to pitchers and catchers report.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Silent and Unresponsives

So I'm reading the NY Times article on Difficult People and the booming consulting business around them.

Link, please?

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

I was almost impressed, but then he got smug and I had to snub him.

Bwah.

Man, in burning off old tapes, I found the Kasparaitis shot of Lindros resulting in one of his many, many concussions. It is horrifying and scary. He's so still for so long, and they cart him off the ice, all immobilized.

They've been trying to clean up that part of the game, making it safer. But there's still a lot of head into the boards trash. The SO fears it won't stop until someone dies.

I bet a lot of pitchers and catchers have cats.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

If someone asks "Do you know what time it is?" he replies, without fail, "Yes."

Oh, my god. Grounds for homicide.

Cute Overload crashed Firefox for me.

Also, Steph, I think your co-worker is an ass.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

If someone asks "Do you know what time it is?" he replies, without fail, "Yes."

STAB! STAB! STAB!
