cdexchange Posted June 30, 2011 Report Posted June 30, 2011 My complaint is that today is not tomorrow.
Sabre Dance Posted June 30, 2011 Report Posted June 30, 2011 The vendor of a fairly popular software app (who shall remain nameless) made some changes in its latest version which renders much of our remote data system useless. Now, everyone who downloads this new version basically shuts down their ability to do work. Oh, and since it is our website, I get all of the support calls. Nifty. Thanks to (nameless) software vendor for screwing up my holiday weekend.:angry:
FogBat Posted June 30, 2011 Report Posted June 30, 2011 why have I never gotten a gift avatar yet? Don't worry. Your time will come. Now, my complaint for the week: If last week's vote in the NY State Senate was not an indicator that NYS is running like lemmings into the sea and hasn't reached its nadir yet, I don't know what is.
shrader Posted June 30, 2011 Report Posted June 30, 2011 Potential sports hernia. Fun. And now 2 hours before my schedules appointment to have this checked on, they call and say they need to reschedule. Thanks for the notice there, people. It's not like I'm headed out of town for a week later today and need to be checked on now.
LastPommerFan Posted June 30, 2011 Report Posted June 30, 2011 Don't worry. Your time will come. Now, my complaint for the week: If last week's vote in the NY State Senate was not an indicator that NYS is running like lemmings into the sea and hasn't reached its nadir yet, I don't know what is. I really thought the tradeoff between rent protection and limits on property tax increases was an excellent political compromise...
FogBat Posted June 30, 2011 Report Posted June 30, 2011 What the hell is a gift avatar? Here's the story behind a "gift avatar". A few years ago, while I was surfing the net, I came across a website for the Church of Satan out in Salem, Massachusetts (run by someone other than Anton LaVey). The guy who ran it, who called himself Lord Egan (real name John Dewey Allee), put up an Ourobouros baphomet and said, "This Ouroboros Baphomet is his gift to you". So, I spun that around and decided that I would put up avatars toward fellow SS members and how they might apply to them. Don't worry. I'm not a Satanist and it's not a hex against any of you. It's just that I have a very bizarre way of piecing things together in tangents. Sorta like that Connections show that was probably aired on either Discovery or the History channel.
chileanseabass Posted June 30, 2011 Report Posted June 30, 2011 I woke up 30 minutes before my alarm this morning, in a great mood, thanks to the dream I had. I was 100% convinced it was true until I was in the shower and realized it was just a dream. What was the dream? Terry Pegula had bought the company I work for from my jackass Frenchie boss, and was flying all of us (there's 10 in the office) up to Minnesota on his private jet to celebrate... by going gun shopping.
darksabre Posted June 30, 2011 Report Posted June 30, 2011 Boss got all pissy at me this morning because he thinks I've been putting the wrong times down on my time sheets. I don't like being called a liar. Maybe they should set all the clocks in our building to the right time...
bunomatic Posted June 30, 2011 Report Posted June 30, 2011 Woke up and had the misfortune of watching that Tums commercial where the guy and his girl are at an amusement park and he's trying to eat a corn dog thats sort of slapping him in the face kind of like its alive( and ahem, kind of phallic ) and he ends up with this stuff all over his face. Whats with that? It was disturbing on so many levels. Thats my complaint for today. Tasteless.
Assquatch Posted June 30, 2011 Report Posted June 30, 2011 Stems. Sliced banana peppers, cherry peppers, jalapenos - no matter the brand. It seems like 50% of the slices have either a little piece of the stem or sometimes a giant honking whole stem. How hard would it be to cut that end off and discard it before sending them through the slicer?

On a side note: my performance review was moved to tomorrow...The outcome of my weekend has now been left to a coin toss at work. It can either go really well and I get a large raise, or it could go really poor, and I'll be looking for another job because i don't get a raise... :bag:
MattPie Posted June 30, 2011 Report Posted June 30, 2011 Tomorrow is my work from home day, so I'll have to have NHL network on all day to listen to trade news. :-( Wait, wrong thread. Got a bit drunk last night, at home, by myself, on my birthday. It didn't seem sad at the time...

LastPommerFan Posted June 30, 2011 Report Posted June 30, 2011 Pregnancy Sleeping Sprawl... By 1 am last night I had exactly 11 inches of the bed left to sleep on. I learned years ago never to wake a sleeping pregnant woman, but now my back and neck are a complete mess from the rediculous sleeping position I had to take to fit into the available space. I'm bringing the air mattress in from the garage as an emergency back-up tonight.

He's been sleeping in the pop-up camper in the driveway, so every night is like camping!
LastPommerFan Posted June 30, 2011 Report Posted June 30, 2011 Just sleep on the floor. I did it for 6 of the months my wife was pregnant. Hardwood floors, probably would lead to the same result.

The tent will be pitched immediately.
shrader Posted June 30, 2011 Report Posted June 30, 2011 The tent will be pitched immediately. There's an interesting choice of words.
Ghost of Dwight Drane Posted June 30, 2011 Report Posted June 30, 2011 Just sleep on the floor. I did it for 6 of the months my wife was pregnant. And the 6 days before.. OHHHH! Sorry :)
frissonic Posted June 30, 2011 Report Posted June 30, 2011 The tent will be pitched immediately. actually, that might be how she ended up pregnant in the first place ...
LastPommerFan Posted June 30, 2011 Report Posted June 30, 2011 There's an interesting choice of words. Is it hard to imagine I'd be erecting a tent?
darksabre Posted June 30, 2011 Report Posted June 30, 2011 Is it hard to imagine I'd be erecting a tent? As long as it's your own tent. Not that there's anything wrong with that...
