Very glad I don't see anyone badmouthing the later seasons of Community. S4 was meh, but S5 and 6 are top-tier. I wish Elroy and Frankie had more episodes.

I worked with a Scott that was awful. He was on-call one weekend but didn't feel like actually leaving the house when there was an emergency, so he called a new hire that was junior to him who he was not in a management position over and told him to go on-site. I was in a management position over the both of them, so when I learned he did it I made sure Scott took over four of the new hire's on-call weekends once he was in the rotation. Fuck you Scott, don't take advantage of new hires.

Scott later had a bit of very important of project work. He was a senior IT dude and the project called for senior-level knowledge. The motherfucker took the time that he was supposed to do the project work that I worked hard to carve out for him and just fucked off. Didn't matter that I had coordinated a downtime window with multiple vendors, the client and the client's clients, he just did not do the work. When asked why he didn't he simply said "Oh, I'll get to it." I sent him the email chain where he had acknowledged the downtime window and asked how he would do that. He never got back to me, as he had been called into a meeting where he got fired for OTHER SHIT. Fuck you Scott, I'm the reason your unemployment insurance claim was rejected. The other managers didn't want to fight it but when I brought up the on-call shenanigans they all got on board with giving you the finger.

If you want to heat air and move it around you're gonna want a fan, which will need electricity. My gas heat is no good when the power is out.

Half your age, plus seven. If you're 25 that's 12.5+7=19.5. You're good to go.

That woman owns only one dress.

Just pump it outside. There's no reason to dump a kilowatt or more into a heater strip when removing moisture from the air on a hot day makes our sweat work better, cooling us more efficiently.

Scissor Sisters in general SLAPS.

Personal injury lawyers will work on commission for things like this.

Teachers not getting paid to grade just means that our educational system is run on/by state-mandated slavery. Gross.

I, too, wasted scales on the Drake Sword.

Hacking a console often involves a bit of work and in some cases that can include physically altering the console. With older Switches you need a PC or Android phone, a USB cable and a little thingy to jump two pins the right Joy-Con rail.

Hillary Clinton moved to New York to run there, and Nicolas Kristoff pretended to be an Oregonian last year to run for governor (though he was told to kick rocks by the courts). Carpet baggers are gross no matter which party they align with.

Games People Play

Thanks for the hard work mate, I hear the next beta is gonna blow us all away. Also I'm looking forward to posting.

That's definitely true, but Sync also fixed it a while back.

I don't get short bed trucks at all. If you can't lay down in it it's not a bed. You're better off with a station wagon in 95% of situations.

It's gotta be folks that are growers/smaller. My fella is much more likely to touch the inside of the bowl (or the water in toilets with way-too-high water) than he is to shoot the gap between the seat and bowl.

I would contend that there's nothing but stupid people in a small room full of MBAs.
