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.

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.
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?

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart
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.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.
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.

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.

Wow recursive stroke-baiting. You're stroking my neologism! ...I'll be in my bunk.

My phone interview went really well! I'm trying not to get too excited because there are all kinds of things that could get in the way (salary is a biggie as I'll have to pay for my own tuition - current co. is covering most of it for me), but at least I know my experience is valuable. Yay!
