No less than three people here managed to blow themselves up with fireworks, to the point of death. Two others are in critical condition.

Hey, Mountain Cod, can I just say that every one of your posts bring a smile to my face. You've been dealt a lovely hand, but your attitude kicks so much rear end. I really hope you pull through this.

Also shouldn't you be posting and updating a bus garage thread?

Drove behind a Fiat 500L this morning. Holy hell it's huge.

I have no qualified guess, but keep in mind that job postings aren't holy gospel. My department (embedded software) routinely used boilerplate like:

The ideal candidate has:

  • Knowledge in the fields of Bluetooth and Universal Serial Bus.
  • blahblahblah
  • Experience in USB programming.

I asked the hiring manager about it, after having been hired, about what the hell "USB programming" was, thinking it was something I hadn't heard of. Turns out that both bullets were about Universal Serial Bus and all this confusion was just copy-pasted around for years.

Today was a good day.


What have you been frying up?

Also, meatpimp, didn't you order a set of PDR tools some time ago? What ever happened to that?

Just made my first halfthree-quarter decent sauce bearnaise. Could be thicker, apparently that is accomplished by even more butter.

Stick on chrome letters are usually tacky as gently caress, but my colleague gets a pass.

Hang in there dude. For what it's worth, my brother had his entire spleen removed (due to ITP, not cancer) and he's doing fine, running triathlons and what not, so it appears it's optional.

Just booked a test ride in a Tesla S! Three weeks out, here's to hoping that there's no snow or ice so I can push it a bit.

So. I decided to try going to the toilet on my own. making GBS threads in a bedpan is only fun the first time. I have been sitting here for the last fifty minutes and cant get up.

I should probably call a nurse

But did you succeed in your pooping? And how much battery do you have left?

Seriously, dude, please don't die yet, because you crack me up. :glomp:

And here I thought I had a semi-cool story about the time my dad stitched up my index finger after I sliced it open with a knife...

gently caress PDF forms that aren't PDF forms. Hard. No lube.
