Auhhhhhhhgggghhhhhhhhh! Wee crazy chick has phoned me tonight declaring she's happy that our break period is over and we can resume dating.

I would so watch the shit out of the reality programme "Rodeos' Ranch".

Maybe someone could collect all of his crazy anecdotes from over the years (that we still have) and assemble them into one thread. Hall of Fame for sure.

Oh, yeah, btw I advise you run like a little bitch on steroids and red bull. A clicker with that loose a grip on reality will probably use your crock pot to shock the RSPCA.

On the other hand, it may help you with those constant animal attacks, once word gets round the animal neighbourhood that you have an enforcer.

Sorry for cackling like a maniac at your misfortune, Rodeo, but I really burst out into laughing when I read this.
My commisserations - I suggest you immigrate to a tropical island without dangerous predators immediately... New Zealand, perhaps?

[Tiste Simeon]

So I was going to post something about something messing with my groove but laughing my head off at Rodeos post made me completely forget it. You win sir!

I hate applying for jobs through employment agencies, when they won't tell you who the job is for and where exactly it is...

Been there, done that, didn't get an interview

Messing with my groove? I have had the song Bird Is The Word stuck in my head for 3 frickin days.

Watching too much Family Guy.


For me - Academics, they are such unreliable, capricious bastards, never remember what they have said in the past and criticise you for doing exactly what they asked you to do. Fortunately for your uncle Cougar a meticulous record of all email correspondence comes in handy at these points, although humiliating one's supervisor may be seen as a faux pas to be avoided.

[Darkwatch]

Nah, you're right to do that Cougar, or else they'll never learn.

[RodeoRanch]

Laugh all you want, bastards. When she finally kills me, fillets me and serves me in a dinner to her imaginary friends, who will be laughing then?! Huh?!


Goddammit.

[Illuyankas]

Us, still.

Perhaps even harder.

I certainly hate the British people in snow. About 1/2 an inch stuck today and the resulting morons on the road meant that my usually 45minute journey home from work took 2hours 45minutes. That's my evening gone! Stupid fuckers.

[LadyMTL]

My co-worker is on vacation this week and I'm stuck picking up the slack. So I'm doing 2 jobs and I'm so freaking tired that I can't even think of witty things to say on the boards here. I can't wait for it to be the weekend...

Australians are very hard to understand over the phone when they are angry and have no clue what the parts of the computer they are looking at are called.

That is all.

Matlab.

Sometime in the past, some software writer thought that it would be a good idea to make a compact streamlined simple code development environment, with it's own new language. And then they decided that engineers and mathematicians couldn't be bothered to have an actually FUNCTIONAL language to write in. And now I'm stuck with it. I have a problemset due tomorrow that I have to write in this godawful abomination for the class, I'm of half a mind to start over, the entire thing, in C.

[Jusentantaka]

Ah good old matlab. Remembering the day I went back to college and told the UG prof who was all over that shit program that NO ONE used it was great. Next you're going to be saying how some chem eng professor expects you to write a script to converge recycle streams with Aspen in fortran or some shit.


I fractured my osteoporotic shin when I slipped this morning and now it hurts and I have to go back to the doctor tomorrow to have it looked at.

[Illuyankas]

I was just checking out any email updates on my application for the job I've wanted to get for ages, and had received none, so I thought "Hey, why not check out the site itself, you can't be too careful!" So I log onto the site and check my listed application. APPLICATION COMPLETE it said, at the top in big red letters, and all was well. But what's this? I can scroll down? I could and I did. And what did I see at the bottom? A fucking online ability test that had to be finished before the application could be sent off, which needed to be done four days after I completed the rest of it, nine days ago, and was completely hidden by the site's own adverts! If I hadn't installed an adblocker, I'd have never have seen it!

It's done now, but probably far too late for me to have a chance at the job. Fucking seething.

Actually, fortran is useful. But not for something so simple. The only time you should ever write anything in fortran is if it is extremely, extremely, extremely important that the math functions be as efficient as HUMANLY possible. Like if you're trying to numerically solve a huge QM system.

I did it, I rewrote the entire assignment in C. I have yet to find good graphical functionality with which to plot the model that I built. But I can hack something together by tomorrow.

NOW messing:
DESPERATELY CRAVES CIGARETTES

Hang tough, Stormy...you are a human being. Cigarettes are little paper tubes.

The cool change has arrived, but the humidity's spiked. Resulting in a sweat-a-thon.

Yokozuna (Grand Champion) Asashoryu retired because he slugged a guy in January at a nightclub. It totally sucks because he is 3rd on the all time tournament win list, and has enough left to make a push for the top spot of all time. And he's 100 billion times more interesting than the other current Yokozuna, who has one single facial expression and is a boring clunge to watch wrestle.
