    Also, I just made a new fancy thread about a great new roguelike. Everybody get on the trolley*.

    *I am terrified it could fall into the oblivion of the second page before anybody realises how great it is.

    Joy. Picked up I-War 2 on Gog, but didn't realise it's effectively broken graphically.

    The Westboro Church is taking credit for the student walking in and shooting the two principals a couple of days ago in the Omaha area.

    They picketed the school it happened at a year go, so they think they caused it to happen.

    Those idiots at my job paid me twice this week. Which sounds great but really just means I have to jump through hoops to get unpaid because they are idiots.

    when i left wachovia they gave me (what i thought was) my final paycheck

    actually i was paid up to date, so after paying bills with this money they debited from my account- proccing that, of course, before small purchases, rather than chronologically

    hundreds and hundreds of dollars in overdraft

    I think they're just pissed that Nebraska neutralized and sent them back home packing 3 times in a row now. We have adapted.

    By that logic they should be charged with murder.

    I was busy putting my kid to bed.

    Y'know, she's a bit of a dick when she's tired.

    At least we put enough food in her tonight, so she might not wake up at 3am going 'want food!'

    She's mostly over her chickenpox, but she does still occasionally go 'my cunt hurts!'

    I bet she's shocked some nursery teacher with that.

    Gotta start watching my language in Japanese. The bad words don't have the same heft as English.

    Yeah, it's pretty much like when an org takes credit for attacks.

    Unfortunately, they'd probably find a a way to sue anyone that tries that angle on them for defamation :(

    Well if my memory serves me well, the average first year student is a fucking idiot who knows nothing about nothing.

    So if you're not aiming things at that level you might be expecting too much.

    However, I thought the first year was kinda for weeding out the people who really shouldn't be there. Do you have any stats on how many are expected to pass/fail the first year?

    it was in my undergrad course.
    The phrase "survival rate of a hamster in a blender" was lobbed about with gay abandon.
    By the lecturers.

    I know XKCD is hit or miss. But I want to print out 100 copies of today's and frame them and post them in all the software labs here.

    Damn it, it's fucking noon. I demand to know if Yami shit on a desk yet.

    The Ramones cover is just a joke, but in the third video, the drummer is pretty good for 5 years old.

    The usual rubbish.

    EDIT: In fact, fuck it. It's failed to arrive in time, I want my money back.

    The world is a pretty small place sometimes. I just spoke to an English colleague who just got back from a trip to NZ for a wedding. The bride was the sister of a girl I used to be friends with back in NZ about ten years ago
