Cool - we might all get superpowers.
I call telekinesis!
Sometimes I miss having powers... Oh. Oh! I know what this is! This is peer pressure! Any second now you're gonna make me smoke tobacco and--and have drugs!

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Speaking of killer robots: Rise of the machine: Terminator-style robot war 'could be a reality within 10 years'
Robot soldiers that can decide who to attack will soon be roaming the world's battlefields if something isn't done about the global 'robot arms race'.
That is the stark warning from a leading robotics expert who spoke today of the dangers of allowing increasingly sophisticated robots to make decisions of life and death.

No, I don't think I will - me, quoting Captain Steve Rogers, to all of 2020
Cool - we might all get superpowers.
I call telekinesis!
Goddamn it! Stole my idea!
Fine. I'll take complete and total invulnerability.
That way I can post whatever I want and not have to worry about anyone flinging me across the globe with their vaunted "telekinesis".

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Oh, for fuck's sake. I just learned that there has been a lack of coordination on something that just maybe I was supposed to be coordinating? Except I had no idea, and actually thought someone else was. So now I'm not sure what to do about it. Argh.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
I was all excited because my Lands' End order was supposed to be delivered Friday.
Friday, no clothes.
I finally got online yesterday to see what the tracking information said. The package arrived in my city, and then got accidentally MISROUTED somewhere else. The tracking page was all "oops, sending it back."
So now my clothes are supposed to be here today.

"In the equation E = mc⬧, c⬧ is a pretty big honking number." - Scola
I'm going to be observed tomorrow for the first time ALL YEAR, and not only do I not really know what I'm going to be judged against, I CAN'T HEAR. Surely not ideal circumstances for skillful, sensitive, discipline-maintaining teaching.
My stuffed-up ears have made me speak in asscaps. Sorry.

Sorry to hear you're still in the land of auditory congestion, Emily.
Musinex really helped drain my head without making me jittery the way Sudafed does after extended use, FWIW.

For whatever reason the quote that turned up from the generator really made me laugh:
