That reminds me of a guy at a company party that was making lewd comments about the head of HR. He told the guy next to him he’d f her so hard, sparks would fly out of her vagina. Didn’t realize he was talking to her fiancé. Then, proceeded to grope another female employee. When they called him I to the front office the next day, he honestly had no idea he was getting fired. He thought he was getting a promotion.
OK, so we were having a Christmas luncheon at work. HR made the flyer. It said “Holiday” party. Somebody felt that was part of the war on Christmas, and crossed out Holiday and wrote Christmas. That wasn’t the issue. Another guy took offense to that guy, and made a counterfeit flyer for the company Cthulu summoning. It said that the human sacrifice would be at 12, lunch at 1 so bring a change of clothes. He posted those all over.
That’s a firing.
I got a good chuckle out of that. Nice.
It’s contagious. I caught the Linux over the weekend. It’s the Kubuntu strain of the disease, so I think it’s a mild case. But there’s always a risk it can spread to full-blown Arch.
Oo, a ziploc bag full of spaghettios
Once in their pocket, if they are some kind of madman that doesn’t have a dedicated phone pocket and they have a phone with an aluminum frame, that’s a recipe for disaster as well.
Oh man, I really enjoyed Battlefield Earth. And the movie. What turned you off?
At the very least. I’d go so far as to say letters up to and including double G would be desirable.
Well, as an atheist I’m not a huge fan of biblical names either
Man, that’s a stupid name. Poor kid permanently tied to a pop culture reference. Two, if the Loki is referring to Marvel. Naming a kid is not an opportunity to express yourself. If you want people to know you like star wars, get a tattoo. Or a bumper sticker. And then I’ll judge you. But leave the kid out of it.
After a quick image search, yes. I love it.
That looks really cool. I like whatever style of architecture this is.
Yeah, she definitely crossed the line that time. It was probably the most mad I have ever seen her. I can’t remember if that was also when she slapped me, or if that was something else. But really, those were the worst instances and the other 98% of my childhood was very good. And we really do have a very good relationship today. I don’t think I deserved it, or any child would deserve that. My schooling was just a hotbutton issue for her, and I pushed it really hard that time.
My mom was very strict with me as a child, but I don’t think it was narcissistic. She was very focused on my education. I had to do well and get a good job. But it was because she wanted me to have good health insurance as I have had chronic health issues from birth. I have a good job now, my student loans are paid off, and she was right about me needing good health insurance. Our relationship is lovely now. But I’ll probably always remember the time that I skipped a homework assignment and she spit in my face.
It’s probably about the Vienna concert that was canceled due to a terrorist threat.
Shingles. That was just awful.
Facebook is for my family. LinkedIn is for work. Lemmy is for me. That’s all my social media.
I remember working both day and night shifts on an assembly line. Day shift was pretty good. The line was fully staffed, we had a full compliment of maintenance guys to fix the line when it went down. Good music.
Night shift was crazy different, way better. No management. Understaffed, and no maintenance people. So, some stations were always slower and you could sit down for a bit. Nobody was in the drive-thru at Taco Bell at 3am. And, it was seriously 15 degrees cooler in the plant. We never hit our quotas, and management was pissed. But we never had to see them.
I still love my 3000 series. Nice speed, low heat, good price. I’ll probably upgrade my gpu again before replacing it. What a good little workhorse.
I love Lenny. Man, some of the calls are hilarious. I can’t believe people who make it to the ducks like, 6 times and don’t realize something is off.
