I am so cranky. I just spent way too long dealing with an annoying person who doesn't seem to know anything and wants me to do her job for her, I hate the new Yahoo mail thingie, I don't know what else, but I'm CRANKY!
Maybe I'll cut out early.
No. You're missing the point. The design of the thing is functional. The plan is not to shoot you. The plan is to get the girl. If there's no girl, then the plan, well, is like the room.

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Last week, we had the distinct pleasure of a visit by rock legend Neil Young. Neil is touring the country in a soon-to-be converted 1959 Lincoln Continental Mark IV named Linc-Volt, spreading the word about plug-in hybrid electric vehicles (PHEVs) and vehicle-to-grid technology. As part of the trip, Neil and his crew are filming a documentary of their travels and the folks they meet along the way.
...
Regarding his vision for the Linc-Volt and its unique potential to draw attention to sustainable transportation solutions to combat climate change, Neil summed it up this way: "Classic Americana from then meeting the Americana of now."
From Mountain View, the journey continues to Wichita, Kansas, where the Mark IV will be converted from a carbureted gas guzzler to a bio-diesel series PHEV. After Neil's fall tour and annual Bridge School Benefit Concert, the Linc-Volt will undergo interior restoration. Then the bio-diesel-electro-cruiser will power on to Detroit; back to its factory in Wixom, Michigan; and then to the east coast.
Huh. No photos of Neil's '59 Lincoln, so you have to google image search to see photos: [link]
Like Neil Young, I have a '59 Lincoln Continental Mark IV, except mine's a black convertible....

Today has been nuts. Crazy busy broken.
However, I was not the one who accidentally deleted half the contents of /user/local/bin so I think I'm going to call myself lucky.
And Devi's thyroid levels came back within a normal range. Mystery illness, volume II? Sigh.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I'm having a really hard time not buying this for a friend. I only promised to not buy me clothes for the next little while...and he does need new T-shirts.
No. Not my job.

Great girl geek T-shirt.

Whether this is referring to a server, an Xbox, or, err...a man's package, I'm not quite sure, but surely it should be 'pwnd your box'?!
'Box' can refer to male genitalia?

Well, in England they call cricket groin protection a box, but that's as close as I can get it.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.
This bit from 30 Rock last night was the funniest thing that has aired this season: [link]
OMG. If Alec Baldwin always did Tracy Morgan's part I'd have to start watching that show regularly.

In my world, it refers to female genitalia.

Except for dick in a box.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
Sometimes a box is just a box.
