jay 'the smasher' sherman?

I love the idea of Jon Lovitz mashing someone's head into a bar, but I just can't quite picture it.

For those who don't know: Jon Lovitz voiced Jay Sherman in The Critic and has appeared as various characters (Artie Ziff mainly) in The Simpsons.

Fave line from The Critic:

Jay: You're old enough to be my mother.
Doris: So? You're fat enough to be my car.

Andy Dick is well named.

From the internal e-news circular:

Supreme Court cuts energy wastage

The Supreme Court is leading the way when it comes to conserving energy by switching off computers at the end of the day.

WTF?

This is leading the way?

I thought this was the bare fucking minimum, something that every person with two brain cells to rub together would be doing anyway?

Oh wow, the Courts are 'leading' with this incredible move. Who knows, perhaps next they'll be turning off lights when they leave or *gasp!* recycling materials in their building.

Don't worry everyone, the planet is being saved!

You judges and lawyers can keep driving your 4 litre Urban Assault Vehicles over from the North Shore each day, getting your shitty coffee in polystyrene cups, buying lunch made from all imported ingredients, relaxing in your climate controlled offices - all guilt free because you're turning off your computers at the end of the day. Well done.

The planet thanks you for your courageous sacrifice.

My day has been spent having conversations much like this from The Young Ones:

Mike: Maybe you shouldn't have poured that washing up liquid into it.
Vyv: But the manual said: "Ensure machine is clean and free of dust before use."
Mike: Yeah, but it didn't say: "Ensure machine is full of washing-up liquid."
Vyv: Ah, but it didn't say: "Ensure machine isn't full of washing-up liquid."

I've been emptying a lot of washing-up liquid out of machines.

i have seen the face of evil and this is it...

Someone please stop him - for the good of humanity!

IT stands for "irritating twats"

Why is it that people who work with computers for a living are often the absolute worst when it comes to communicating with the damn things?

I say this fully aware of the irony that I work in IT and very seldom send non-work related email (so those friends who are waiting on email from me and were about to get snarky can consider me well snarked). This is about work. I'm usually sending more than 20 emails a day. Although I reckon only about one in 5 gets read by anyone.

My gripe (today) is that these IT geeks, while having a grasp of Unix or Java of which I could only dimly dream (and makes fetching bespectacled nerdettes swoon (also dimly, in their dreams (those of the nerds, not the imaginary nerdettes (yes, I'll quit with the brackets now)))), seem entirely incapable of grasping the operation of a keyboard and formulation of grammatically correct English.

Proof of which I offer hereforth (or fifth (ok, ok, no more brackets (or stupid jokes))). These are requests for informations sent by a developer today. At least I think they were requests - it was hard to tell given the complete lack of question marks. Or punctuation.

Firstly:

Atempt to transmit the attached file (has been format for display) results in the following eror.
Spec's for childAgeType shows UN as valid.
Could you have look and let me konw why the errors occurring.

*teeth grinding at abuse of apostrophes*

And then:

AM I SUPPOSED TO BE REGISTERED TO GET UPDATES.

Whoa dude, no need to shout...

Followed by:

here a list of changes\rules made
Is there a nother docu that says "both DoB and Age can be left blank if a selection is made from AgeExtra"

At least he got a bit of that right. Hang on, that's me he's quoting...

Finally:

Should not it be the other way around. Every developers testing one be changed and advised of live change 1 week later (Unless extend for bug fixes)

Actually, I haven't responded to that one yet. Because I have no idea what he's getting at.

I give up. Communicating with fish was easier than dealing with this bunch.

Spent the weekend avoiding vacuuming using the biodiversity defense. This works along the reasoning that since the rainforests are being cut down every effort we make to maintain the diversity of species on earth helps.

Think global, act local.

Not a very good argument really. Just trying to turn my slobbishness into ethics.

Oh, also went to a food & wine festival.

Word of advice for businesses thinking they raise your profile: don't bother. I don't remember a single brand name from the whole day. Too pissed.

Oops. Bad consumer *smack*


Word of the day: sool. Just because.

a poem from all of me...

200mgs of Paliperidone a day
Should keep the voices away,
But to guarantee wardrobe monsters are gone
Use a back-up Risperidone.
