Didn't she end up teaching the sign language to a deaf boy or man?

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
I can't deal with tapping on the trackpad to click, I guess because I have a heavy finger when tracking. I'm always tapping when I don't mean to. So I turn that shit right off! And laugh at other people using my computer.
I totally got yelled at in the last few minutes of my work day, by a notorious yeller who I have successfully avoided until today, and probably won't work with again, thanks to my new coworker. Oy vey. It sort of made me cry (not in front of her), but was also such pure unadulterated bullshit, I will be fine telling my boss about it in the morning. The best line was when she said, "If you want to work with [My Department], you're going to have to [blah blah]." I don't want to work with your department!!!! Good luck, New Coworker....
Steve Jobs is God, right? And he just ascended, not died?
Is the App Store Heaven or Hell? Why in God's name would you decide to put a Mac app in there? What is the plus side? Not having to manage a web/FTP presence? Because it's fucking annoying to me to have to switch browsers (Opera gives the wrong error message, BTW--that you're using the wrong version of OS X, not that you're using the wrong browser, so you actually have to pay attention to get anywhere), load an extra app, and then log in--to get a free piece of software. You're fucking lucky you're a sexy hot piece of shit, Skitch. I wouldn't do this for just any slut piece of code.
Gnargh. Just quasi-blew up on someone in email. We have an error so bad it happens over 50% of the time you load a page on our website, and they've been sitting on the next step of diagnosing the issue for a week and a half with no explanation for why nothing's happening, just "So you want us to do the next step?" every time I ask them to do the next step. And today, I can't wring status out of him without sending him the same email over and over again. So, fine, have a piece of the urgency that is currently up my ass.
Not gonna do it, tommyrot! I prefer clicking to click. I am prone to the accidental tap while scrolling or typing or not trying to do anything, I think. It takes a lot of concentration to use a mac with that setting for me.
Oh, man, tapping to click on touchpads drives me insane. I always click and move and open things I don't want to.
I always click and move and open things I don't want to.
I would do this, too.
Also, does everybody who uses iOS intentionally spell things without apostrophes (like I'll), knowing the autocorrect will fix it?
Yes. I probably wouldn't if the apostrophe was on the same page as the letters.
I'm so glad this is not just me with the accidental clicking.
Yes. I probably wouldn't if the apostrophe was on the same page as the letters.
Heh. Me too.
I told a vendor he couldn't call me for an update on Friday because it was Batman day. He was in the middle of being really impressed. I told him to hold it, because he didn't know how I was dressing for the event. In the end, he might have sprained something laughing.
I might actually send him a picture. He got an advanced screening ticket to the last movie and he took it as seriously as it deserved.
Okay--weird call. Someone I don't know called me and asked me what floor we were on, because he needed to know for a package. We're listed in the building directory, so it's not secret, but why would a stranger call me? I asked him what package, he said he didn't have it, someone from another company had called him for the information, and he looked up his contacts for [some app I don't work on] and he couldn't get in touch with [person I've never heard of]. I told him "Look, you just sound weird. Call the third person on your list." and hung up.
Aha! A Bourne ad about Renner's character. And so much different than all the rest, because this one spins the sci fi element and hard.
