Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

What is "BF"? Or is it literally "BF"?

¿. At least, that's how it shows up in the Toad interface, and when I display the field in hex it tells me the ASCII code is BF, but somehow the content management app knows to display an — instead. I can see if the Toad interface were mangling it, but it really should be reporting the right ASCII code.

Now I have to get someone with read/write access to the content management app to cut and paste the field contents from that to me so I can compare them to what I'm seeing raw from the database. This will mess with our migration.

Boss just said he's going to fight for my conversion from contract to permanent because of the good work I've done. Made my breath short. I wish him well. I know there are budgetary considerations that might get in the way.

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

"BF" is 191 in decimal, which is one of the "box-drawing characters", according to this: [link]

Yay! Fingers crossed that he wins that one. Plus it's great that your boss gets it.

Our wings are not tired.

Nice to get recognition for your efforts, ita. Hope the boss is able to make the change for you.

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

Boss just said he's going to fight for my conversion from contract to permanent because of the good work I've done.

Excellent! I hope he wins, you totally deserve it.

Awesome ita!

In today's I'll-show-you-polar-bears moment: I walked into a joint production/editorial meeting just as the production Big Boss was lamenting to my group's Big Boss that noone was being festive and wearing green in her group.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

Good luck, ita! Hope that works out.

My old co-worker apparently was mystified by the word "scimitar" today, but she figured I would know it. She was Gchatting with my co-worker thusly:

A: can you ask sunil what the hell a scimitar is?

C: >[link]

A: i should've known
A: sunil is like a real life comic book character
A: and i honestly think he would wear a cape if he could get away with it
