(The music really makes the clip!)

Previously disappointing chocolate monkeys taste better today. Maybe they needed to age or breathe or something.

I am not sure if I would rather BE a goat companion or HAVE a goat companion

Easy call for me.

I found a page in my settlement agreement (no, I'm just going to sign it and draw no lines between "will you stop your ADA accommodation?" and "your position is eliminated" because there's a table of ages and titles of other people that got eliminated the same time. I can't work out who they are, but I didn't know we had a 63 year old developer. Neat, for as long as it lasted.

Most people let go were within 2 years of my age.

Huh. I hope your severance package is good.

ita, I can't remember if I said anything earlier, but I'm sorry about the job. I hope you find something good soon.

I have the Enjoli version of the "I can bring home the bacon, fry it up in a pan..."

I have no idea what this is but read it as EMOJI, and was like "there's SONGS in Emoji? How the hell does that work?!" I was worried I was getting behind on the internet.

I don't think I have the admin skills for that (amongst other necessary skills), or want the admin duties associated with it. I'm not decrepit enough to seek a desk job yet.

I do kinda hate that there is such a discrepancy sometimes in what is good for one job, which you are required to do to get promoted to the next higher job which has completely different skills. And my current job is similar to not wanting a desk job--some people really like the traveling and don't want to work from home 24/7!

So, two weeks after my boss's boss is let go, my boss has given notice. Drama llamas abound.

Oooh. Disturbing, but also full of potential?

I don't really know what emoji is (are they the little animated things in twitter?) but you MUST see this commercial which play approximately 8 million times during my childhood.

10 weeks, paid weekly, I think. It's better than Countrywide. Of course I need to sign papers saying I won't say anything bad about employers, but it's not like I'm going to name them soon. SO THERE.

My manager was not good at managing, and I think they realised that. She's now been moved to be the only person in the former CIO (now CTO, I'm sure the difference is both huge and subtle)'s department. I'm actually really happy about that. First, she's not managing people anymore, and secondly she'll get some of the joy of being a 2 person department, except I don't think she'll have as much influence as I did, since her new boss isn't new to the company at all.

I just realised yesterday I no longer have my cool Staples discount. Of course, but sad.

Here's an accent/dialect analyser that spans more than America or even native English speakers. It got me wrong, but I read the instructions wrong--for the multiple choice questions you can pick more than one answer but I didn't realise at first. So I'm going to try it again.

*****NSFW QUESTIONS******

Since I have no boy to test on, I have to ask:

1. I read that men have as many happy nerve receptors in the nipple as women, but their stimulation seems either exaggerated or underplayed in fic.

2. Do men and women have the same quality and quantity of nerve endings in the anus? Because fics always have men rimmed to just short of orgasm, but most of the writers realise that with just the tongue there's really unlikely to be prostate stimulation happening. So is it equal fun?

I can't remember the name of the Table Talk poster, but there was one woman who could not stop talking about how much better anal got her off than PIV. I can't even remember what threads these were, but she was some damned evangelist. I'm not saying it's not fun, but if it were up to her, het breeding would be an endangered species. Hey, I wonder if you could have a surgery that puts a tract that let semen come to the cervix.womb through anal. And then I realised I was an idiot and we're lucky we are as minimally sanitary as we are. Still...you could make one for the upper digestive tract too, and then just about anything could get fertile women preggers. That would, you know, suck.

**** END OF NSFW ****

I just got a friend request from a guy I went to the state science fair with when I was in 9th grade, back in the Cretaceous Period. He was older and studiously ignored me. I would never have imagined he would have remembered my existence.

I thought for a second Ginger's 9th grade guy friend had the answer to the anal stimulation.

TMI As someone who has a lot of digestive issues, I cannot imagine enjoying someone being anywhere there.
