Jealous of nerds with hangovers [CHAT]

descdesc Goretexing to deathRegistered User regular
In this thread we are jealous of nerds who are already laboring tirelessly towards crippling hangovers and video game sales pitch burnout. I speak, of course, of PAX attendees. These people will not see this [chat], because they're busy fraternizing and nibbling appetizers and drinking cocktails and then waking up and rueing life and repeating the process.

The rest of us are trundling along in our regular ho-hum days and trying to make chat threads on our phones at work and while we know we're jealous, we're going to calmly listen to Ryan Teague's "Fantasia for Strings" without betraying any emotion.

Thank you and please continue with your [chat]ting day.

    They might not see it right away, but when they are pooping, there's a 50/50 chance those valiant hungover souls will either be making poast, or playing temple run.

    Today is my last day here! My desk is empty save for this computer and a box full of my things and some office supplies.

    Since I don't have the balls to say it to my coworkers in this place, allow me to say here in [chat]: Fuck this office. Fuck the assholes who work here. Fuck the backstabbers. Fuck the Big Brother management. Fuck this job.

    Jesus, how does Word Autosave lock up my entire computer when it's running? What the christ is it writing? And why is it not an automatic background process that runs in it's own thread using point in time snapshots, and writing more or less continuously?

    Most MS software seems to do this.

    My favourite is that the URL autocompletion in IE at work causes the computer to lock for like an eighth of a second every couple of characters as you type, and it stops responding to keyboard input during those moments.

    So you type "google.com" and it picks up "ggem".

    Based on your posting history I would say you are the White Male, wearing a baseball cap with an uncreased brim and 50/50 sticker, carrying glow sticks while endlessly grinding his teeth.

    i am currently miffed for two reasons

    reason one is that there was an upturned ice cream scoop sitting in the sink at the exact spot where the water from the tap landed, this caused the water to jet in a graceful arc all over my crotch

    reason two is my copy of HotS won't let me play multiplayer because it keeps telling me to "buy the upgrade"

    When my douchebag coworker quit, he left his mason jar behind. I took it as a sort of trophy and started drinking water out of it. Quick sidenote: mason jars are stupid for just drinking water at work.

    Anyway, I cleaned it and left it on my cool coworker's desk with a note inside, bequeathing unto him the "Chalice of Douching."

    I'm thinking that what I should do is purchase and set up a couple of partitions, and then just tell her I live in a 5x5 studio apartment. My living room is fairly tidy, so I'll pretend that's my entire place. That'll probably be less work than cleaning up.
