Yeah, I bought the sets as they came out so I’m about $120 deep. I still have a vivid memory of hearing Phil Hartman died on the radio, calling the station and talking to the DJ about it for a while.
I really hate reinventing the wheel… again… and again… and again. This has completely killed my motivation at work, though there hasn’t been much of it since I started this project.
Hey, I did that, too!

Look, there’s nothing weird or wrong with opening a package with a 6-inch hunting knife. Or with having a 6-inch hunting knife conveniently located.
Sounds like a great way to hurt yourself. Try sticking with the right tools for the job.

It a completely appropriate tool for the job.
I use a key, or, barring that, a quarter. Or, you know, scissors or something.
A car hasn’t gone by in an hour. I feel like I’m on vacation in my own home.
H.
raife is using a knife to cut stuff? madness!

Birthday shopping for the BF is impossible. He’s already bought two of the things I was going to get him. Fail.
Also, when I have to open a package, I reach for the biggest knife possible. Because knives are fun. And they cut things.
I’ve been moving dozens of boxes and assorted furniture. I don’t get this, why do people go to the gym (paying money to do so) so they get to move heavy stuff, and then I gotta hire people, and pay them to do the same stuff. How does that work?
I hate Verizon. My phone hasn’t been working lately – dropping calls, missing messages, and failing to transmit audio – so I stopped in to the shop to get it replaced. That phone insurance has got to be good for something, right?
Only now they don’t let you do in-store swaps anymore, apparently. Instead, I was handed a brochure with a phone number to call to file a claim.
The another god-damn puzzle thread both confuses me and arouses me (up to page 10 which is what I’ve read so far)
I’m sick with an ear infection and I ended up being forced to give away my ticket to an Isis concert tonight. I hate the world (they’re breaking up after this tour).
I think Tuesday when I go back to the office, I am going to greet everyone like an NBA PA guy.

Holy shit! Is that barbed or razor wire? Looks barbed, but the pic is too small to tell. Either way, that guy’s in a world of pain.
That’s barbed wire (spacing’s too off to be concertina). That’s weird, because it’s a US Army standard triple-strand countermobility obstacle, but the US Army doesn’t use helical coil barbed wire (they use concertina wire).
Bugs me every time I see that photo, but from experience, that’s the most annoying part of being a military engineer - the fucking wire obstacles.
These new VW commercials annoy the hell out of me. Does VW actually not know how the game is played? It’s called slugbug or punchbuggy for a reason. You don’t get to hit someone every time any VW goes by. Just bugs. No one gives a shit about Jettas, god damn it.
