After all these years I'm still upset by Nigel Lythgoe's face.

He's an ugly guy. But he's rich.

laptop battery for my asus is dying. i have to send away for another one... i've owned it for less than two years.

i keep meaning to spend my day reading this 477 page manual for this focused ion beam system i'm supposed to be training people on, but i'm also signed up for stuff at coursera and that's more interesting, plus i like getting drunk midday, so none of this is working out.

hah, so the people you are supposed to be training will end up teaching you how to use the system. Make sure you read the safety precautions part of the manual if anything please, don't want to overload anything etc.

i don't get drunk on days that i'm in the lab, lol. that wasn't very clear in my last post. i just need to be reading the manual on my days off, but instead i keep finding cold beers in the fridges of the rooms i'm in

You sound like an awesome supervisor.

MRAs. Just remembering they exist is enough to taint a good day. Taints.

what's this MRA thing ? I must have missed that thread.

lol

lol

Oh, it exists, and it really chaps my caboose. I can't explain why or how I know this.

Have you been leaving it plugged in? That messes up the battery on a laptop, happened to mine,.

spiced chicken sandwich isn't the least bit spicy.

i didn't know that , but no, i don't think so.

/wonders whether he should close the tattoo thread, lest users get encouraged to get tatoos that we'll all in 2-3 years be asked to assist in paying for the removal of.

heh dorks.

don't be a jackass, delet.

edit: i mean that in the same nice way that people type "heh"

good, cause it was meant to be a joke, and i couldn't imagine anyone seeing it any other way. Well unless they were some anal people that had tats and issues about anyone calling them out on them because they secretly regretted getting them. Then i might be facing trouble.

double heh plus ;-]

nah I love my tattoos!

there´s guacamole and tacos in the kitchen. I am not.

I still don't have any money

My roommate mentioned to me the presence of a hornet's nest nearby our cabin. Last night, I discovered that hornet's nest to be about twelve feet directly in front of my bedroom window, hanging off a tree branch.

So I'm faced with a dilemma; should I knock it down, or should I leave it alone? So far the hornets haven't bothered me. But "kicking the hornet's nest" is beyond reach. I wondered about buying a pellet gun, but it seems unnecessary to attack it if the buzzers aren't bothering us.

I'll leave it alone for now. But if they start bothering us, I'm gonna drop their hive like it's hot.

Came to finish off an assignment that's due tomorrow, not much to do on it really. Go to open the file from the folder and Open Office comes up with a warning telling me that it's not a Win97 file(???) and then closes. Seems there was still a lock file around for it. Got rid of that but still couldn't get in the file

Long story short, it was a .doc file that contained a considerable amount of formatted code, tables, diagrams etc. I managed to get the file but only in a horrible text file that I had to fuck about with in Notepad++ for bloody ages for the formatting and redo a few time consuming diagrams, pretty much from memory.

Fuck sake.
