Yeah, I...I find nothing funny about this, at all. :shock: I am now genuinely concerned for the 'other party' in this convo...which is (hopefully) unnecessary, but still. https://56.media.tumblr.com/0b1bd83263ba5b64ad00238f4b2a8a9a/tumblr_n3c93aOq7o1qb5gkjo1_540.jpg Mesdames et Messieurs, La Nintend...

Fuckin' golfers.


(Also, a very good talk about timekeeping, time zones, and FDST/FBST )

If you DIDN'T get worked up about this "most benign and entitled thing", then something that SHOULD work smoothly, equitably and fairly would NOT - it's the 'little noises' that need to be checked and worked on BEFORE they become worse and worse (I've been experiencing this as working as a...

Yeah, even the worst case can turn out a pretty good ice-breaker:

"Actually, I used to like it, but I developed celiac disease in puberty. Funny you mention that, though - I've learned to get a pretty good gluten-free diet going, but I just can't find any good recipes for..."

Support in the sense that nothing automatically included with Win10 will recognize the .tga file extension; Win10 wanted to start up "3D Builder" for me, and M$Paint & Win Photo Viewer just balked at the files. And the game takes screenshots and saves them as .tga's...yet they want sub...

Okay, when the FUCK did Micro$oft decide to stop supporting the .tga graphics file format, and thus why are active developers TODAY still requesting screenshots IN that format (and their applications are creating screenshots as '*.tga')? http://i106.photobucket.com/albums/m257/empath69/smilies/bang....

In the Things You Never Want To Hear category... I'm in the cab, and I hear one of my colleagues key in with "Well, you'd better take my number down {he's not available to take fares} - I'll be at the Janeway {Children's Hospital} ; she just passed." http://i106.photobucket.com/albums/m257...

Boy has cancer; family moves across Canada to get closer to children's hospital that provides chemotherapy. Boy's cancer resists chemo; family starts crowdfunding campaign to afford a experimental treatment (CAR T-cell therapy). Lead actor of film about a Canadian with resistant cancer who undergoes...

A bit of blame miss-direct here. Google/Youtube is responsible for the lack of communication, and should be held accountable for that. Ditto for any broken form or technical issue at their end. However - they don't get to decide whats "fair use". They are not the ones to blame there. They...

Oh, so you LIKED seeing characters die...and then come back...and then die again, etc. etc. ad nauseam?

Ah, but this isn't a writing position; it's SHOWRUNNER. Moffat wrote some fantastic episodes *cough-cough- Blink -cough*, but he's proven himself to be a HORRIBLE manager. While the two tasks have some overlap, they are very different, and that's been the problem. We can only hope that Chibnall take...

♫Ding Dong! The Witch is dead.
Which old Witch?
The Wicked Witch!
Ding Dong! The Wicked Witch is dead.♫

...well, in a year's time, at least.

But FINALLY, I can turn my attention to a show I've had to give up on as not entertaining enough to make it worth the aggravation...

Thank you, Bill. You helped MAKE LoadingReadyRun come to be - you were the anchor that pulled these people together and turned them into friends. And again with Desert Bus, you took an idea others fiddled with, and gave it strengh and drive - your participation is part of why it morphed from 'we'll ...

Also

as the first reply noted: "god bless Mark Hamill"

....god dammit...

just this

Aye, bonne annee!

Okay, when did driver schools stop telling their students to TURN ON THEIR expletive deleted HAZARD FLASHERS when they end up in a car accident and their car is sitting broken, blocking traffic? Today we were obstructed by a t-bone collision (someone tried to turn left onto a busy street in too much...

...although, I'm not quite joking about this; you COULD do MUCH worse...

No offense folks; I'm eager to see how JJ's continuation plays out, myself, but...

Okay, I know this is a 'free fire zone' but I'm going to apologize in advance for what I'm about to say, anyway: FUCK 'TWITTER FOR BUSINESS' I don't care if it's perfectly legal, whether it has the creator's approval or whatever ; THIS ISN'T WHAT IT WAS MEANT FOR. YOU ARE CORRUPTING A GOOD THING WIT...

Okay, found the money...


...but it was in a spot I was CONVINCED I'd checked, so this helps my fiscal stability, but just undercuts my mental stability even more...I can't trust myself.

...actually who would be up for me continuing that and doing a full Desert Bus version of Lose Yourself? http://i106.photobucket.com/albums/m257/empath69/Animated%20gifs/oh-hai-bug.jpg If the rest is as good as the start, Marshall will be givin' you props hisself. ;) But nope, my body isn't ready.....

My brain started to turn that 'welcome' into 'subscriber welcome' and then I started imagining a Kathleen commercial for her own daughter. Halp. Heeeeeeeeeeeey everybody! Who's a baby that just came out of me? That's right! It's Penelope! She's cute, and dignified, and she's wrapped up in a blanket...

Well... After coming home from my taxi shift, I helped with supper, put my work stuff away, ate, checked emails and stuff, then dug out my logs to 'update the books'. As well as that, I gathered up the cash I had in my pockets and counted it out - three $20s, and seven $5s; I put the fives in work-s...
