Enforcer84 Posted May 18, 2014 Report Share Posted May 18, 2014 I was busy! Amusing (to me) side note. When I used to sing the song as a seven year old, the line "there wasn't quite as many as there was a while a go." came out, "There wasn't quite as many as there was a was a was."

Cancer Posted May 20, 2014 Report Share Posted May 20, 2014 Listening to your iPod, with songs ordered by title, and shuffle turned off, is an odd sort of shuffle all by itself. Though it may take a while to get through all the "Concerto in ...". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Old Man Posted May 28, 2014 Author Report Share Posted May 28, 2014 So I found myself suddenly unemployed late last year and, with financial Armageddon imminent, applied to a large number of jobs over the next few months. About 90, in fact. I finally got picked up towards the beginning of the month, and it's a good job with good people, although I'm a bit underpaid. So in the past couple of weeks I'm starting to hear from companies and governments I applied to back in December. I'm being polite to these people and all, and following up even though bailing on a job after three weeks is not the kind of thing I want to have to put on a resume. But what I really want to do is scream at them. What the f_k were they doing while I was scrambling to find income and the bottom fell out of my savings? Is this how well their organizations are run? Meanwhile the underpayment issue is already starting to nag. You know, I can see what people with my qualifications are making on the west coast, and the Sound and the Bay Area seem to be especially overheated. I did choose to live in a place that costs as much as San Jose and pays 2/3 as much, so I have no one to blame but myself. But it still grates.

BlueCloud2k2 Posted June 7, 2014 Report Share Posted June 7, 2014 So I started a new character on Elder Scrolls: Skyrim and am playing a rogue. Usually I track down some vampires so I can become infected with Vampiris Sanguinis and can eventually become a child of the night as the powers mesh well with Theives and Assassins. I decided not to this time for the simple fact that I didn't want to mess around with the need to feed or daylight Nerfs to HP and Stamina. I had just finished telling Aventus Arentino that Grellod the Good (who is very evil) was dead when I stumbled right into a fricking Vampire Attack. I not only managed to get infected but accidently killed a village (it was dark. So sue me!). Got sent to jail, broke my lockpick trying to get out of my cell, and had to serve my sentence. By the time I got out of prison, I was a mother-fracking-vampire. *sigh* I can't win for losing. And I don't feel like doing the damned quest to get cured so it looks like I'm gonna be a vampire again. At least my Thief/Assassin/Vampire doesn't sparkle. Frack Stepanie Meyers and while we're at it, frack Anne Rice too! bigbywolfe 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
death tribble Posted June 8, 2014 Report Share Posted June 8, 2014 It's a bad news, good news sort of thing.

death tribble Posted June 8, 2014 Report Share Posted June 8, 2014 The Radio 1 DJ Scott Mills hated the official World Cup song by Pitbull so much he decided to do his own version. He roped in the latest boyband 5 Seconds of Summer and it is now available on Youtube. It is fairly generic so any team could be supported. And yes it is better than the Pitbull one. But then so is Leprosy. Here is the link for the curious https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SrTP_pllUng Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Effective 2015, the American Astronomical Society's journals (Astronomical Journal, Astrophysical Journal, Astrophysical Journal Letters (ApJL), and Astrophysical Journal Supplement Series (ApJS), will be digital only.

death tribble Posted June 13, 2014 Report Share Posted June 13, 2014 Someone has done a Friday 13th stunt that could have got people killed. They dressed up as Jason from the Friday 13th films and went after people with a chainsaw. How they did not end up shot is a real wonder.
