a flailstorm of enormous egos was waiting for me when I returned from lunch. blarg. just excavating myself now. actually sent (I never do this) one grumpy email that loosely resembled:
Dear asshat and director of asshat,
[x] that we discussed earlier this summer is a good idea, but we did not have time on our development schedule to do it immediately. As you could edit [old form of x], we all agreed that this would do in the short term.
since you have not edited [old form of x] for three months, and instead spent your time composing disgruntled messages about how we are not giving you the attention you deserve, we have just now stopped what we were doing for [other group] in order to develop and implement [x]. You do not get to comment on how it works. If you don't like it, bite me. We have cc:ed [other group] on this message.

How sad! I had what was probably an unhealthy attachment to calling the At The Tone The Time Will Be lady repeatedly as a kid. I'm sure it's healthier for me now that everything that matters to me keeps itself synced with the nearest ntp server, but I'll always remember calling that special number when I really really had to be sure my watch was exactly right.
I used to call that number all the time just for the hell of it. Sometimes I'd call people at random and ask for the time.
Yep, I was a prank phonecaller... All part of my favorite hobby: confusing people.
Juliana: I need this.
And I need the measurements that would allow me to wear it.
I don't know enough yet to be anyone's baseball fan yet, but my fake newsguy boyfriend KO loves the Yankees. I would concede them righteousness except for the fact that Rudy does too, and the thought that we could be on the same side makes my stomach hurt. So.

I can only hear Katherine Hepburn saying this.

And at the time (heh), it was already a pop culture reference!
