It's easier for us to come up with possibly faulty percentages ourselves than to ask HR, who may or may not ever answer.I think HR filled it out for me. That's how I was Hispanic for a day last year.
You know me! I'm like, "Go school! It's your birthday!" Or something to that effect.

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 just hauled over 3,500 pennies to the CoinStar machine last weekend.
I first read that as "penises".

So it wasn't on "National Be-Hispanic Day"?

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
Ugh. I've been drowing in work all week. Need a break.
Etiquette question:
So, all those grade school and high school friends I haven't seen or thought about in twenty years...I can defriend them now, right?
We had our little, "aw, your kids are cute you look great I'm glad you're alive" conversations.
But a lot of them have JUST DISCOVERED social networking and I feel like I'm drowning in newbies who say weirdly inappropriate things and I just want them to catch up for a few years when the LOL! LOL! has been beaten out of them.
I am a social networking SNOB.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Happy birthday, Kristin and MFNLaw!

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Happy birthdays, y'all!!

Heh -- I know someone who was listed as Hispanic at work for a long time, when she's not. Her partner is, and she speaks Spanish, but still. My other justification for what I'm doing is, we're just providing percentages, and that could go wrong in any number of ways!

I've found the "less about" option to be very useful for those situations. When they appear in your newsfeed, click on the "options" button to the right of their post/status update/whatever, and select "less about" and you'll rarely ever see them again. I use it for the right-wingers in my family.

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

If you hover your mouse on the right side of their latest inanedate you can instruct Facebook to "tell me less about this person".
