I get confused. I remember everything. I remember too much, and... some of it's made up, and... some of it can't be quantified, and... there's secrets.

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

Thanks, Zen. Der, brain fart.

don't get me started on the woman who gave me a lecture about how their department doesn't use the serial comma, when the stuff they had given me was riddled with them

I had a boss who told me, very patiently, how she "understood" why I'd "make the mistake" of using that extra comma, as she comforted me and asked me to delete them all from the document I'd written.

I'm sure all her employees loved her.

I just told my manager that the incompetent developer keeps picking fights with me. She's done so twice this week alone, and I had had it up to here. I didn't expect a solution, I just wanted to go on record as not liking to be told what my job is by an associate software developer. Because she clearly has no clue what it entails. And she deeply cares about things I do that don't affect her and her workload in the least, including the apparent feelings of other developers, who might be hurt by me running tests my boss asks for.

Hah.

Anyway, gonna buy some whisky and go

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

"Trickle-down government" is a pretty good line.

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

So all of a sudden Romney is not going to cut taxes on the wealthy?

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Huh. Guess not--but does that include a link to it? Reproducing it in whole with a link? In part? I wonder.

I dunno, but it's weird and concerns me.

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

Watching the debate. Oddly nervous. Have no alcohol.

Need to click up to live in a minute but also nervous. Also have alcohol. Must suppress rage.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."

Romney is fucking lying. From like jump street.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

"Trickle-down government" is a pretty good line.

Really? I thought it's the kind of line that sounds good to the RW echo chamber but won't actually play well. But we'll see. It definitely sounds like one of those "zingers" we've been reading about. I think the "economy tax" is another one of those zingers.

Is it just me or is almost everything Romney saying a lie? Sigh. But good ol' Leher, letting Obama call him on it.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."

all of it is a lie.

ALL.

I am not sure I recall much this blatant in a debate.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."

I'm sure tomorrow his campaign will quietly release a statement that none of it is true.
