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.

Here's a piece of chocolate shaped like Santa holding a Christmas tree. Although some say it looks like a sex toy: [link]

Worksafe, as it's just a Santa. Who is possibly holding a butt-plug.

I'm a fucking amazing catch!--Fiona Gallagher, Shameless(US)

Well, that would bug me less. Personally, if you are established enough to pay a surgeon to mutilate a body part, shouldn't you be old enough not to be "cute" about it? How great was Nip/Tuck last night? IMO, best one ever.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

Scrabulous can blow me. I finally had a few minutes to plot against Jesse, and the stupid thing won't load.

BLAH.

This is even cooler than it sounds: [link]

Boing Boing described it so:

Flavia sez, "Here's a Brazilian blog for the 'International Ugly Mickey Contest'. It's in Portuguese, but it's really great to see the terrible, amazingly ugly versions of Mickey Mouse. The contest is over now, but the blog will keep posting the ugly mickeys people send from all over the world."

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

Only if Santa is really REALLY small...

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Scrabulous can blow me. I finally had a few minutes to plot against Jesse, and the stupid thing won't load.

Aw.

Unless it's for Bumbles.

Now we know why they bounce.

"You can't put a price on the joy of not giving a shit." -Zenkitty

Does the position sound like something you're fairly current on? Do you need to research software or anything?

From what he mentioned on the phone, it's very similar to the work I used to do for my old job. Some software research might be warranted, though.

Do you have an answer prepared for "Why do you want to leave your current job?"

We already discussed that a bit. Unstable industry! Not challenging enough!

Also, another good one thing to prepare are questions about the position they have open.

That is a good idea. And I need to stop making porn jokes in my head so I can think of some.
