I just ironed a pair of pants. With a steam iron. Steam irons hiss and smell funny. I haven't ironed anything in 20 years. I did an adequate job, I guess, but I'd much rather have paid for laundering by someone who knew what they were doing. I decided I needed to start seriously saving money for a house, which is why I didn't, but maybe a person who doesn't know how to iron ought not have a house of her own. I hate this domestic stuff. I'm no good at it. Didn't my momma teach me nothin'? Well, in fact, no, she didn't. You know what was great? When I had a wife and a husband. I made the money, she did the domestic stuff, he provided the sex and the general assholeness. Now if I could have that again, only this time with "some more cash" instead of "assholeness", it'd be perfect.
ND, the logo is fantastic! I'd wear a Diablo Sound t-shirt!
Trudy, you and your tennis friend are funny! Go for the Big O!
Dude, some people are such assholes. I had to spec a SQL script (something I've never done - I know what we need the script to do, but I don't know exactly how the script should be written). I wrote up step by step what we need and provided an example with the variables clearly indicated. This dickweed writes back "Is it really necessary to do step 2? Doing xyz would be better." Hello, ass. You're the expert. Just tell me the best way to do it and leave your snotty attitude at the door. Annoying, especially since this isn't normally my job. I'm filling in for a co-worker who is on vacation.
Ooh yes I would pay to have that Diablo Sound logo in shiny red on a black baby doll.
Is there a term for saying something self-deprecating about yourself in an internet forum so that people who love you will come back and say nice things about you? I didn't do it on purpose but I bet there are people who do and I think there should be a term for it. Stroke-baiting?
fishing for compliments is what I use IRL
Hey omnis. Some day you should give me a hard time for being at SCR next monday. Preferably before next monday.
I can't do that before hand, it's beneath me. But while here, we'll be happy to all chip in and give you a hard time. So much easier in person. And Mark is good at it! :)
Sean was really asking for that, wasn't he?
Yeah, I walked right into that one.
fishing for compliments
oh pooh you're right. No neologisms for me.
Oh, I know there's an intenet word for that.

Ooh yes I would pay to have that Diablo Sound logo in shiny red on a black baby doll.
Yes please!
Great-looking logo, and the tagline is all kinds of excellent: pulls together the logo and your personality and your phenomenal professionalism and work ethic. The whole thing is altogether made of win.
fishing for compliments
oh pooh you're right. No neologisms for me.
Yeah, but "stroke-baiting" is a beautiful neologism and possibly even an improvement on the original, specially with the lovely little "masturbating" echo; if fishing for compliments isn't emotional masturbation I don't know what is.
I like stroke-baiting, myself.
Wow recursive stroke-baiting. You're stroking my neologism! ...I'll be in my bunk.
