I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

poor mac always has a wrong hypothesis and then is really unhappy about it.

Oh, poor mac. But finding out your hypothesis doesn't hold up is a good result! That's hard to internalize, of course, but it's true.

Grr, Sophia. I hope the dean remembers requesting being copied so that the professor looks foolish for that remark.

I'm about to start a protest about the quality of the toilet paper in our building. The other building, new and shiny with all the executives, doesn't have crappy toilet paper.

You could send them that warning about the hazards of poor quality toilet paper that Tommyrot linked to yesterday. Do they really want to risk an OHSA investigation?

I haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."

I just got the most snotty reply to an e-mail that I've seen in a while. I'm resisting the urge to forward it around to my coworkers so they can share my general feeling of "Okay, dude, you can bite me."

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

you should write out your complaints on the TP.

my boss has been out of the office most of the last two days and it is not work work. Other current employees have been along as has a paid consultant. SO SKETCHY. I wish he would just quit already.

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

Our standardized testing isn't until late April, but we are already getting flyers home about it. I refuse to do additional prep with mac. Like he needs another thing to be wound-up about.

And it doesn't really matter or count for him as an individual at all at this point. I think outside of Regents test or Exit Exams, the tests themselves only count in terms of sorting kids, otherwise, they don't have any practical application except to look at schoolwide progress.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

Well, the dean responded by copying in another party, and stopped down and thanked me for sending the email. Although I still want to say F U.

I am not in the best of tempers-- my theatre student crapped out on me last night, I had a very long night that included student stage managers telling me what to do and me snapping at them (which I hate) and about 50 million things that had not been communicated with me.

And today my regular job student didn't show. She emailed because she had too much schoolwork. Dude, you work 10 hours a week, plan your damn life better.
