So, did you all know there is an International Quidditch Association?
Duh! C'mon, Le Nub, get with the program.
Actually I'm waiting for Whack Bat to take off.

The worst thing about finding that page and looking at the standings and video is that I was actually disappointed that the brooms didn't fly.
apparently my inner 5-year-old still exists.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
Jesse! I just now realized you started a words with friends game with me on Facebook, which I a) didn't 't know existed and b) can't access from the iPad.
Oops!

True fact: Elizabeth Taylor had a genetic mutation which gave her a double-row of eyelashes.
I'm going to hazard a guess that Nestor Carbonell has the same mutation.

So I'm looking at jobs on craigslist, and I run across one that seems to be for putting together home listings for a Real Estate person/company. I get to the bottom paragraph, which reads a little testy to me, but whatever, but the two things I've bolded... seriously?
You will receive some training but will mostly be left to develop your own method of assembling the reports. If you can't spell, are dyslexic, not available most evenings (OR early mornings), are not focused, reliable, trustworthy or willing to pay great attention to small details then do not waste your time applying for this job... Please reply with your name,date of birth and approximate location.
I know the companies I worked for made it clear to those of us doing interviews that asking a candidate's age was Not On. The dyslexic thing seems highly questionable to me, too. ETA: To be clear, highly questionable in terms of legality. Unquestionably jack-ass, regardless.

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there
Both of those are out of line, but helpful in clarifying that this is an asshole you never want to work for.

Right? I was thinking it sounded like a decent PT gig, and then... not so much. I mean, the testy just sounds like maybe it was written ten minutes after firing or losing someone who wasn't good at it, but the other two? Dayum.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Wow, seriously.
Jesse! I just now realized you started a words with friends game with me on Facebook, which I a) didn't 't know existed and b) can't access from the iPad.
I figured it was something like that!
