In my elementary school there were two girls the same year with the same names (when said aloud) but both first and last names were spelled differently from each other. Darcie Keene vs Darcy Kean. There parents didn't know each other/have any overlap. There were no other Darcy/Darcie/D'Arcy 's in that class/the schools we all went to for 13 years, and I have never known any other Darcy/Darcie/D'Arcy in many many years of knowing people.

I once said hi to Jennifer Love Hewitt in the elevator at my old office (which itself starred in Studio 60 on the Sunset Strip) and she was probably the prettiest person I've ever seen IRL. Drive Chat: I once drove from Chicago to Phoenix in one sitting when I was 25 or so. Then I slept for 16 hours.

I wonder how much spit the average "I don't like this regular ingredient can you please alter the recipe for me" individual eats in a lifetime. I had a friend at work who could never just order what was on the menu and he irritated everyone and we didn't even have to pick the carrots/mushrooms/whatever out of his lunch.

Yeah, this guy isn't an rear end in a top hat per se but just overly picky. I could see FOH staff rolling their eyes when he ordered, but he paid and wasn't otherwise obnoxious/annoying. His friends (my work crew) just got tired of every restaurant possibly being vetoed because (imaginary reason)

Ornery and Hornery posted:How many of you make $200k or more? No IT people I know make $200k, unless they're heavily into network security. IT meaning "the people who do hands-on setup of Hardware" as opposed to people in Engineering, which probably takes Senior Engineer II and above (or like Senior Product Director) to get close to that. Engineers do far less work than product managers. I work at a company that is heavily reliant on tech but is not traditionally a "Tech" company aside from all the weird perks they offer us. We had daily Juicero deliveries for 2+ years!

My wife is English and I've received medical attention in both Spain and Greece for like 10 euros each time back before England decided to lose EU benefits, so my socialism bona fides are very big, and very strong. That poo poo rocks I also started my current employment in the mail room delivering mail to executives, just like Michael J Fox and doing whatever odd job came up, so I side with labor every time.

Ornery and Hornery posted:Oh okay then yes maybe I just don’t know what IT is in this brave new world. One of the people is basically on call 24/7 like that other goon said and they do some hardware fixing but mainly software fixing and they make good money. But I wish that they had more free time Yeah, I think if you are the one point of solutions for a system the company is highly reliant on (smaller companies), there's a variety of ranges for an IT someone who maintains some weirder piece of infrastructure you can't just call a vendor to fix for you, but that caveat also applies to engineer positions and there's generally more opportunities in that field for "ownership". And then you're definitely going to be that 24/7 on-call person who *rarely* gets bothered, until the week you try to take a vacation in which case everything will break at once.

I reply to emails at all hours. Gives the impression that I work all the time, I put execs on the spot in the middle of the night if they don't have an answer to what I've put back to them and I'll reply earlier than they do with follow ups, and then I shrug bigly when they don't get back to us with answers. Allows me to not reply during work hours because I'm sleeping and everyone thinks I work 24/7 because of the odd hours.

Pain of Mind posted:My wife and I make a decent amount of money, but we are in an odd place where we bought our house when markets were relatively down and have a low interest rate (2.6), but we have also outgrown our house. It does not make sense to buy a house where the monthly cost is 4x what our current place is just for 400 more sqft, but we also make much more money than is necessary to afford our current house so we are accruing a ton of money that is more than anything else would need, but still not enough for a nicer house (SF bay area prices go brrrrrrrrr). Just dragons sitting on a pile of gold at the moment. People who like each other never "outgrow" their houses because they enjoy spending time in close proximity. Good luck!

I had an SI subscription from the early 80's. Every Friday I was reading that poo poo from front to back cover. I had a entire 15x20x8' wall collage full of NBA dunk superstars that I'd cut out of SI with an exacto knife and placed into the right space of Jordan/Magic/Bird/Barkely/Robinson, with a few Dominque Wilkins and Larry Nances and other rando ballers from the mid 80's, and the remaining space was surfers and skater legends that had been captured in the magazine. I can't even remember why I took it down, but I did before I went to college and I haven't thought of SI since 1993.

Late for Movies in the Theater Chat, but I saw the original Speed on opening weekend with a 6'6" 260 pound Marine friend of mine who was back on his first leave just after boot camp, so had that rigid bearing and short haircut and looked military even without a uniform on. When the bus hits the baby stroller he burst out laughing extremely loudly, then abruptly stopped with a 'wtf' kind of noise when it was revealed it was only full of cans. The entire theater looked at us like we were monsters. I still crack up thinking about that.

If you mail your passport photo and the required paperwork to the department of state it takes like 3 weeks to get a passport. If you pay an expediter service $200 or something you can get it in 36 hours. I have no idea what an appointment is for.

The dept of State seems to do a very good job of validating your bona fides, and it's a big LOL from me that a passport that will allow you to go to other countries isn't a sufficent & valid document at the DMV to establish your validity as a "REAL ID (tm) (R)" that you can't use to fly to other countries with. At least your Social Security Card you printed yourself is.
