    Mr^2...please tell me you backed up your thesis research. Like, I have my data backed up to like 5 different places, in physically disparate locations. At least put it on a few USB drives.

    I really ought to do that more often. The current version always resides on my mp3 player, which goes everywhere with me and is therefore highly likely to be lost D:

    Seriously, make multiple copies of your latest version at all times. The thought of what happened to MrMister has horrified me ever since I saw a note posted all over campus one year by someone desperately hoping to get their laptop back with all their thesis work and research on it.

    t, MrMister: Did you file a police report? The odds of getting your stuff back are probably low, but its got to be worth it to at least make the report.

    The dude looks scary, be he actually comes off as a pretty amiable intellectual in his writing.

    I think that the consensus was basically that the guy probably would have made a better justice than Scalia or Thomas, but basically got thrown under the bus because he had a few public "shocker" opinions and presented himself poorly.

    So I said to some girl, "but if they banned abortions, what would I use to make the soup?" and she said "Smurfs". I was completely unable to respond.

    She's a goddamn keeper, VC. You hold tight, and by Jupiter, you never let go.
    You didn't read his later post. She's in an open relationship and has a kid.

    So there'll be no-strings sex and you know she has the "facilities" to "accomodate" your "dick"... wait I didn't do that right!

    Or was it the potential for the Swedish Chef jokes his last name created?

    That is one of the beneifts to a sudden temperature drop. My hot lunch tastes oh so good right now. I'd have been insane to have chili a week ago or, hell, even just yesterday. Now, though, it's warm and yummy in my tummy.

    OK, I've found quite possibly the most niche sexual perversion ever to appear on the internet.

    It's so very bizarre that it's not even disturbing, it's just plain weird.

    Take your vacation time and try tracking down criminals for the reward money. If that doesn't pan out, go back to work.

    I'm thinking of taking a bicycle frame building course, then if I like it, starting up a business.

    I used to enjoy computer stuff so much, now... not so much.

    What are the Great Magnet and the Lobster from? Clearly I'm not down with the kids any more if these pop culture references are sliding by me.

    Although I doubt you are still awake, the Great Magnet is sort of a new age-y term for the Earth. It basically means that you worship the Earth. Not really pop culture, I'll admit. Pedro the Lobster Messiah, however, is extremely obscure. He appeared once on Conan O'Brien. He was shown being put into a pot of boiling water by the chef, only to rise out of the water a moment later in radiant glory and telling the chef that he was forgiven for killing him. And Queen Spider is obviously South Park.

    Hello, [chat]. I dreamed of zombies again. Damn zombies.

    I don't think i can justify sending stuff over to America AND sending out half a dozen Xmas cards to international friends. :( I mean, I have the money, but my parents will just go "that's a waste of money, why don't you buy your mother flowers instead?"
