plain english legalese

From a forum I just signed up to:

Forum Terms & Rules

Don't piss us off and everything should be fine.

Simple. Concise. Somewhat threatening.

I think I'm going to like it there.

overheard

From the party next door on the weekend:

Guy #1: What does 'emo' stand for anyway?
Guy #2: Emotional. Apparently.
Guy #1: (outraged) What? When the fuck did 'emotional' become a genre?!

A question that seriously needs answering.

Along with 'Why isn't there a hunting season for emos?'

Little more than one month to go. That makes me sad.

But the show still makes me happy.

Life can be so complicated.


Oh yeah, and fuck Valentines Day. Seriously.

my new job..

...involves deciphering what the hell emails like this mean:

Jeff,

I tried to nslookup on old250 but it doesn't work in bash

Evgeny

WTF?

I mean seriously?

I have no idea what I'm doing.

je suis avunculaire

Welcome to the world Eloise! (named after the song by The Damned? I'm not sure.. but doubt it)

Mother & baby doing fine, father going somewhat nuts with the excitement and adventure of the whole thing.

Well done fishbro & fishS-I-L, the hard bit is over now - just 18-20 years of parenting to go..

Much love to all three of you.

PS I found the perfect gift! :)

griffin again



Claire mentioned to me at Xmas that she hadn't seen any pictures of the insane orange beast for a while. Just to show that he's alive and well and still kinda cute. Occasionally. When anyone has a camera out. The rest of the time he's a psychopathic bastard... Don't be fooled.

work emails..

EF: have you heard Cinema Dub Monks?

FB: I think you just made that up

EF: Not true.

http://www.tunes.co.uk/tunes/featured/8837.html

FB: you know I haven't got teh interwebs at work so it could still be an elaborate hoax..

EF: Yes, that's right. It could just be an elaborate hoax.

FB: you've got so much time on your hands after all, who knows what you invent to pass the time...

EF: Most of it is indeed not safe for the easily offended...or confused.

FB: I'm confused.. should I be offended?

EF: Only if you find it easier.

happy new year?

Hang on a sec: no-one asked me if I'd finished with the last one.

Bastards.
