Death is your art. You make it with your hands day after day. That final gasp, that look of peace. And part of you is desperate to know: What's it like? Where does it lead you? And now you see, that's the secret. Not the punch you didn't throw or the kicks you didn't land. She really wanted it. Every Slayer has a death wish. Even you.

No, I don't think I will - me, quoting Captain Steve Rogers, to all of 2020

Weirdly aggravating exchange with a customer:

"(Company Name), this is Joe, how can I help you?"

"Hi Joe, this is Fucktard McMakeYourTeethGrind at I'mAnIdiotSpazCo. How are you?"

Me: "I'm fine, how are you?"

FM: "Great. And yourself?"

*blink*

Me: I'm...fine. Can I help you with something?"

For half a second I considered asking him how he was again, just to see how long it would go on out of morbid curiosity, but I decided to end the cycle of madness.

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

So you're still fine, then?

He's superfine! You could bake with him.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

"No, really. How are you??"

If it bends, it's funny; if it breaks it's not funny.

That sounds about right. Like the whole Anna Nicole thing.

This is awesome! And pretty: Steampunk keyboard mod

Jake sent in this an already venerable IBM Model M retro-fitted with glass and nickel keys and mounted in a polished brass frame... Steampunk Keyboard Mod

I love how the function keys (the top row) have roman numerals.

That's incredibly cool

ION, we have Children in the office today. They are not office-trained. There is yelling and running. That is Not Cool.
