But it really is a pain in the ass to go back to the reptile store to buy another bulb and I think they're expensive.

Still maybe I should ask the other roommates if they think this is unacceptable behavior.

He slammed the closet door, then the front door, then his car door, screaming "fuck!" the whole time

I guess it would depend on the cause. I grew up in more of a "silent treatment" family, so slamming doors and cursing would seem a bit extreme to me, unless there was a major causal factor. Are there bees in the closet? That would produce the reaction above from me. Busted lightbulb, not so much.

Yeah, that sounds pretty disproportionate to me. I mean, a loud "FUCK!" when you do something stupid and/or annoying like break a bulb or spill the dinner you just made all over the floor or whatever? Sure. Maybe slamming the car door extra hard as you get in to go buy a new bulb/supper, because you're frustrated? Sure. Repeatedly doing so while yelling loudly? Kinda creepy.

Nora, a tower is on "limited service," they are in the process of fixing it, no current estimate for when it might be fixed. I'm asking about an account credit.

On the other hand, listen to the boys play Call of Duty and it's nothing but "fuck Fuck FUCK!"

in other lizard news: cricket fight! Do the males spar over the females? I'd never seen (nor heard) such a thing before, they both had their wings all flared up around themselves, were making a chittery racket quite unlike the usual noise, and were hopping and crashing into each other. I wished I had video.

Facebook wonky for anyone else?

I will note that I just looked up Mercury retrograde (I know, I know) and it started August 3rd. My first text failures were August 4th.

Interesting. Nora, they "re-registered my device with the network" and it seems to be helping. So I would advise chatting with them online and doing the same.

It was for me, smonster, but now it seems to be OK again.

Hmph, I was hoping to get to work from home this afternoon, but now it's going to be tomorrow instead. Which wouldn't be a problem, except I look kind of ratty today -- haven't shaved, didn't wash my hair, wearing cheapie flip-flops, etc. Nobody really cares but me, I guess.

Facebook wonky for anyone else?

I'm not getting notifications for status update comments or photo tags, which is weird. Not even on-site notifications.

I haven't noticed that facebook is acting any wokier than usual but I've never been particulary happy with how it operates on a good day.

On the other hand, listen to the boys play Call of Duty and it's nothing but "fuck Fuck FUCK!”

But this is a completely different situation, and not comparable. Swearing when playing a video game versus swearing in anger have completely different intent and impact, in my experience.
