I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

Oh, now I remember. Yeah, that was some bullshit. I am even more on Team No Fucks to Give

My Goals for Next Year: clothing myself appropriately every day that I go to the office. Because getting dressed is hard today. Should've done laundry last night, I guess.

I haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."

Nuns are hardcore.

they don't call the head nun "Mother Superior" any more

But I'm sorry, I can't allow this.

brenda, that sucks. Is it that bullshit evaluation system where everything has to fit into a bell curve, so some people have to be at or below expectations, no matter how they performed?

I did get my steroids last night. Woot. And slept for 10.5 hours, despite the massive dose of steroids I took at 8.

They arrested a man for making some of the JCC threats: [link]

He sounds like a real piece of work.

The last couple of times I've asked people to do peer reviews for me, they've asked if I'm going up for promo. I don't know why there seems to be a disconnect between my stakeholders who think I could be up for promo, and my management, where I'm just trying to keep my head above water.

Hey Californians! Did you know that "if it's yellow, let it mellow" can damage your toilet? I did not.* And now I'm going to be $900 poorer. OTOH I think I will be getting a low-flow toilet.

* it's something to do with mineral buildup in the toilet that interferes with a valve at the bottom of the toilet.

Did you know that "if it's yellow, let it mellow" can damage your toilet? I did not.

I need to mention this to Tim, who is engineer of the Let It Mellow train.

Can someone translate the cover of tomorrow's Der Spiegel for me?

I mean, »Der Doppelregent« is a pretty clever pun, but what does the tagline say?

Er, I'm pretty sure that's an EXTREMELY dirty innuendo, because the verb "stecken" literally means "to plug". So.

(I had to double-check the verb, because I was going on my college German. But I'm pretty sure it implies what it sounds like it implies.)
