That's why I'd love you as a boss. After we call it a day at work, you'd fire his ass, we could go to the gun range and then watch Zombie's Halloween.Quote:

You need to be the bigger man here. Wait for him to screw up, which hopefully won't be long from now, and chastise him relentlessly once you catch him. Make sure to repeatedly tell him to do his job and throw in a "Go fuck yourself" if you're willing to start a long-standing feud. :)Quote:

Screw up your job all you want. I don't mind fixing your mistakes, 'cause I'm not a rinky-dink pisscunt tightwad dickmunching fuckstick."

It's all about "getting" it. Ebert got totally carried away, he's relentless. Mo Ryan is a machine, too. I get most of the arts and entertainment updates from those two alone. Colbert, on the other hand, puts out mildly amusing jokes all day, as if he has a "ghost twitterer" who just types stuff in for him. I expected his account to be funnier.
Ebert's tweets always brighten up my day. He can be so ridiculously clever with just 250 characters. It's an artform with him.
And his constant complaints about Rush Limbaugh is just too good.

exercise is good.
But is it great? Cuz I need great.Quote:

I decided to Photoshop my buddy's face onto Conway Twitty's as they used to have similar hair:

I've had to train myself to never, ever get really angry, because it gets so ugly.Quote:

Holy smokes I'd be irate. The workplace is always tough to talk to people about what is bothering them. Esp if they react in a hostile manner.Quote:

"Sandals are not appropriate for the work place. It's distracting and annoying signed - your neighbors"
I wasn't mad, but kind of shocked that whomever wrote it, didn't have the balls to come up to a 23 year old kid, straight out of college, and ask me to my face. Also considering some of the software guys actually came into work wearing Pajamas! I'm not even kidding. One guy wore the same Guinness PJ bottoms to work at least twice a week.
So I wrote on the same paper, "come and speak to me and I will consider it", and posted it outside my cube. It remained there for the next year with no one speaking to me about it. So I kept wearing my sandals.
I have that on my Droid. Widgets are awesome.Quote:
