Someone *just* posted a fic like that, shrift, and I'm just HOPING it's a joke. Because otherwise ... fangirl's head go boom.
Zoe: What's that, sir? Mal: Freedom, is what. Zoe: No, I meant what's that? Mal: Oh. Yeah. Just step around it. I think something must've been living in here.

My California colleague just called because after spending the day yesterday with our boss, she wanted to give those of us here in this office credit for putting up with her as well as we have. Hilarious.
That's hysterical.
I'm applying for jobs today. From my job. Good times?

There are many things wrong with the following:
"Could I please have a look at your style sheets for site [X]? I’d like to check that my Xxes are looking right — and also, as a novice, it’d be very helpful to see how you’ve accomplished what you’ve got on the site.
I’ve got a chance to work on the links again today, so it’d be great to have them today..."
not only the "forget the last three months of my ignoring your requests, now that your assistant is out..." stuff but also the fact that the person writing the email has not one whit of experience to get her to the second part of that sentence. nor do I think she realizes that the css isn't responsible for driving the site's behavior too... So whoever wrote this for her is only slightly more knowledgeable...
it's just a style sheet. why do I smell a self-imploding rat? Is it the groveling? [2 months, 29 days. 2 months 29 days.] I'm balking like a balky thing over something that is nothing. why.

welcome to my world. I'm even considering applying for a job in the building across the street from my parents. How desperate is that?

mystery solved. and the winner is passive-aggressive tone!
eta - and the fact that she can't find a style-sheet herself.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Good times. I keep feeling sketchy when I look at job listings, but obviously no one's looking at my internet usage!
PS: Damn you Vortex -- I could fly higher than an eagle!!!

I am just not going to be able to comment on anything at livejournal today. People keep posting stuff that makes me want to say, "If this is your idea of an April Fool's joke, maybe you should rethink it, because wow, if it's not real, you're kind of an enormous dick."
Like what? All I've seen this morning were about a million rickrolls.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
I love the Bacon Matrix, but it's wrong. Obviously, after you give bacon to the dog, there should be an arrow leading back to the point of cooking up more bacon.
