It sure is a conversation starter, though.
And what a conversation! "Well, I was hiking this volcano..."
Spike: You pissed in the Big Man's Chair? That's fantastic! Gunn: Spike, can you please turn off that warm fuzzy? Spike: What, the Lorne thing? Worn off. I just think that's bloody fabulous.

I'm just waiting for him to get here and discover that the entire website is in an outdated version of Sharepoint.
AHAHAHAHAHAHAHA.
We're switching to a new content authoring tool sometime ... this fall? At least upper management agreed with my suggestion that my side of the team won't switch to it until next year, after our January deadline?

I haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."
We're in the middle of a template transition to standardize docs and help. It is...taking a long time.

Even more entertaining? I couldn't get a new computer because, seemingly, it can only be edited using an old version of IE ... although there's a CHANCE that the newest version - "Edge"? - might work.
I love the smell of schadenfreude in the morning ....

Oh, Todd, that is not going to be pretty.

I cheerfully loathe SharePoint.

Maybe I should just resign myself to not being able to swim until the weekend, when I can swim in the morning before these afternoon storms start...well, there is always tomorrow.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
Are you telling the full truth, that Iceland's trolls tried to eat you? Or just going with "Oh, I fell down a volcano on vacation".
When I walked up to the desk, the manager called to me, "I'd hate to see the other guy!" I replied, "The other guy was a mountain," and he laughed and I told the abbreviated version. The man driving the shuttle came up and asked me what happened, and I told him I lost an argument with a mountain, and the manager gleefully said "A volcano! " Iceland seems to be a GoT fantasy place of ice and snow in most peoples' minds. I get cred just for going hiking there, bonus points for breaking off a body part.

AHAHA oh god. Are you going to try to warn them or just bask in their consternation?
Jesus, I'm at baggage claim and there's two breaking news stories about Trump.
What? Fuck, I was only gone an hour! *runs to Twitter*

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Is this the "Trump is even more of an international embarrassment that we thought" stuff?
