Angel: I appreciate you guys looking out for Connor all summer. It's just—he's confused. He needs time. That's all. Fred: Right. Time, and some corporal punishment with a large heavy mallet. Not that I'm bitter.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

I'm still googling Rapture stuff. I found this blog:

Rupture the Rapture

He describes himself like this:

It is my considered opinion that there is no god. I understand there are people who don't agree. I can't imagine why, but hey, let's talk. I love dogs and some cats.

Fucking asshole! Those people who don't love all cats are going to burn in hell!

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

web design and coding are different things though, right? At my last job we had 2 female web designers who also coded and then we had a female coder and we had our print designer do the web design stuff - she would then code it.

And no one there used frontpage.

The problem with making a vat of delicious potato leek soup last night and bringing some to work for lunch today is that I WANT TO EAT IT NOW NOW NOW.

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

And then you can do an effectively simple web page, but with a great deal of coding behind it.

Case in point. t looks around

Beautifully simple design. Hella impressive programming.

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

The argument I was having came from some ass saying that girls use computers like they watch television, there's no technical skill going on.

And I said no, girls can code. And they do. Such is my experience in fandom. Girls aren't just providing written content, they're designing as well, and often coding up their own shit by hand, from scratch.

Such is my experience, though. It's anecdotal. I learned HTML from other young women, who were using C++ and Perl at the time.

Now tagless for your comfort.

Oh, god. Now I want some of shrift's soup! Badly.

The argument I was having came from some ass saying that girls use computers like they watch television, there's no technical skill going on.

And how do boys watch tv with "technical skill?" Is watching UFC and drinking beer all that technologically challenging?

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

I would also eat some of shrift's soup. Especially since I had food for lunch and managed to leave it at home. Now I'll have to go outside. And make decisions.

It is very good soup. And it has bacon. I will be eating it for the next 3 days. If you guys had come over last night, you could've had some!

We just went upstairs to see where they were putting us. I fear that it's going to be worse up there than it is down here. We're going to be on a floor with customers all over the place, and apparently, it is not uncommon for customers to just walk into your cube, sit at your desk, and try to use your phone. Crap, I'll have to lock up everything when I go to the bathroom, won't I?

We just had a giant whiteboard fall off the wall. No injuries, but a giant thunderous crash.

One of my coworkers has suggested an exorcism.
