And how Windows 7 was Gus' idea.
I'm not sure how old he is, but I heard him use the word 'newfangled' one time, so he's gotta be pretty far gone.

The more I learn, the more I realize how little I know.
Just got back from traffic court, regarding my accident back in October. The court was packed to overflowing, and they took the cases alphabetically by defendant's last name. In my case, the name was Zimmerman.
To make matters worse, it turned out that the guy paid his fine just before court started, but his name didn't get taken off the docket, so there was no notification that I could leave.
Grrr.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
Jesus H Christ in a chicken basket, you guys. How did I just let myself get sucked into reading B'craxy 2 instead of going to sleep an hour and a half ago???

OMG, so much of GA is resonating with reading the old Bureau, it's kind of creepy. There's voting and arguing and I forget what else, but I've thought it three times.

I caved; I finally opened Bureaucraxy 1 to take a look at the crack. Is there something that came before Bureau, that wasn't called Bureau, because the first posts sound like the continuation of something that was already in process.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
The first posts are a sequencing glitch--check the dates. Real B'cracy starts a couple in.
