There is cold air blowing out of my vent! Either the heater is broken, or someone turned the air conditioner on....I am freezing my taint off.

you better get that fixed, fast! Many people think that the extremities (toes and fingers) are the first things to get frostbite. But it's actually the taint! it's been proven. I think Sike did extensive research in the field of frozen taints.

Well, it finally happened. The sadistic IT department here at work has blocked dallas-mavs.com. It is a dark, dark day.
If they ever prevent remoting to my home computer, I will be SOL.
Angry.

Dunno. I mean they block lots of typical time-kill websites, but I'm surprised they picked up on the traffic from one employee to block it.

Can someone who works in IT give us some insight on how that might work? Would they monitor based on number of hits or total kb transferred or what?
Maybe you hit your one millionth d-m.com page refresh!!!

Yes, thats it. Frequently used ip´s. In Dallas it´s not difficult to find out which ip-ranges are used by the franchise.
In addition they can ban words like Sun, Lak, F**k, P*rn, Va***a etc.

I hate meth heads.
So I'm walking down the street from the condo I'm staying at in Hawaii. About 80 feet ahead of me is a gal walking down the same sidewalk in my direction. I'm listening to my ipod and it's in my hand at the moment.
All of a sudden she starts screaming, but I can't hear what she's saying because she's so far away and my ipod is turned up. After awhile I press pause and I realize she's screaming at me. I point at my myself like "me?".
Meth head: Yeah you! (I'm maybe 30 feet from her now) YOU PUT THAT G*D D*MN THING AWAY. PUT IT AWAY NOW! PUT THAT DEVICE AWAY.
I looked down in confusion realizing she was referring to my ipod.
Cars are passing us and I can't believe this is happening.
Meth head: THATS RIGHT! (We're about to pass each other now, I'm mentally preparing to block any needles shoved in my direction) I'M SICK AND F*CKING TIRED OF PEOPLE TRYING TO SHOOT ME THROUGH THE HEART.
Me: huh
Meth head: I KNOW WHAT YOU'RE TRYING TO DO. DONT SHOOT ME YOU SON OF A B*TCH.
Me: uh, it's an ipod.
(she's behind me now and turns around/walks backwards so she can keep screaming at me)
Meth head: F*CK YOU! F*CK YOU!
At this point I'm really freaked out because she has stopped walking and is now staring at my back, so my head is turned around as I walk as fast as I can in the other direction. Meth head doesn't like the fact that I keep looking back at her and she keeps screaming at me to turn around. Every 10 feet or so I keep checking on her to make sure she's not charging at me or something. Eventually this really pisses her off and she sits on the brick wall screaming "FINE YOU POS LOOK AT ME.... F*CK YOU STOP LOOKING AT ME!"
I eventually get out of line of sight but still a little worried because I was 100% she would be waiting for me in some bushes on the walk back ready to stab my jugular with an aids infected needle.
F meth heads.

I hate the fact that one of my younger sisters got a giant four foot tall Obama-cult-head poster from my mom on our delayed Christmas gift-giving day, and I ended up getting in a huge fight with two sisters and said mom because I thought it was amusing to badly sing the lyrics of living color's 'cult of personality' when she got the dang big, expensive piece of glossy toilet paper...
Cult of Personality...

How hard is it to prepare even ONE question for the end of a job interview??? I mean, come one...not even one question about the company???
To add onto that, there's absolutely nothing that INSPIRES you?!
WOW, you listed your class projects as your job experiences...so freaking deceiving! You did a project FOR the company--that DOES NOT mean that you worked for them!
I ask you a simple question like "What brought you to the company?" and all you can muster up is a lame reason like it's close to where you live?!
Okay, so you think that EVERYBODY has weaknesses, but could you make your answer just a little less generic? "I pay too much attention to detail," isn't quite gonna cut it--especially when I obviously am not getting very detailed responses to the questions I'm asking you!
Gosh, you seriously gotta wonder if people even want the job.

in my last job interview (for the job I have now) I told my future boss that my weakness was that if I get dogged too much to finish a task I shut down. LOL he asked me what I meant, I told him that it was a pet peeve from when I was growing up, my sister used to pretend to be my parent and tell me to do stuff. I'd ignore them and over time it developed into a habit that if somebody tries to force me to do something I just don't do it.
I got a call the next day with a job offer.

What part about my little cooler chest sitting in plain view here where I want you to see it says: "Hey you should ask me if I want to go to lunch?"
I always say no.
I don't want to go to lunch with you. What do you want me to do, hang a big sign that says "I BROUGHT MY LUNCH AND PUT IT IN PLAIN VIEW SO THAT YOU WOULD GET THE HINT WITHOUT AN AWKWARD CONVERSATION..AGAIN"?

look sweetie, i know you're a big gator fan and tonite is a huge night for you.
and you know that i can't stand the gayturds but i try to compromise when you want to watch them on my new tv because yours sucks.
and i know you've been out of town working and we haven't seen each other for awhile and that committing to watching the entire national championship game uninterupted was the only way we'd get to spend the evening together.
and i took your playful, yet pointed ribbing to heart when you said you were worried i'd be flipping channels the whole game and said i'd put the remote on the other side of the room for the game tonite.
but, when i request to have the stars/mavs game on the picture-n-picture tonite ON MY TELEVISION IN MY HOUSE and you pitch a fit? well, dear, stay the f at home and watch your freakin' gayturds lose all by your lonesome.
