    IT was asked to setup automatic mail backups for us. We got a half-hearted email instructing us on how to drag a PST file to a network drive. The instructions do not include what a PST file is or where I'd find one. Only that Outlook should be closed before copying it.

    Now I know what a PST is and I can look up where mine are stored I guess but jesus christ IT. I wish I got to halfass my job like this.

    "Oh yeah just take the camera, hook it up, and point it at the thing and say go. It should probably be ok."

    lol your IT is so bad

    it's amazing


    that's also... not even what mail backups is

    life's a game that you're bound to lose / like using a hammer to pound in screws
    fuck up once and you break your thumb / if you're happy at all then you're god damn dumb

    It's like the time the Starbucks guy was dumbstruck by my wife's request of a tall drink in her "grande" sized personal coffee container. As smoke started coming out of his ears after trying to explain that, yes, a tall drink will indeed fit in there the lady behind him was like, "I got this Chad, just ring them up"



    *I'm assuming his name was Chad, I forgot it.

    Apparently, in certain parts of the country "plain" takes on a whole different meaning from what plain is supposed to mean.

    Plain, by context, means "nothing". If I say "give me a burger plain" that means I want nothing on it. Plain's definition implies that "nothing should change" but if I say "burger plain" why not just say burger? It doesn't mean anything if nothing changes. It's not like I said "yes give me a burger with lettuce, plain, so just ignore that lettuce brother."

    But in some parts of the rural south and midwest "plain" means exactly that "I want this as it is on the menu". It's mind baffling, like they're not cognizant of why someone would say plain instead of just the menu item.

    I assume that's what happened here, in some form, he heard "cheesesteak" and his brain went "okay so meat on a bun sandwich, and he only wants peppers and onions.. but the cheese... hmm he didn't say cheese specifically other than reference to the sandwich, he must've meant plain cheesesteak"

    WASHINGTON — A 28-year-old army officer on Wednesday sued President Obama over the legality of the war against the Islamic State, setting up a test of Mr. Obama’s disputed claim that he needs no new legal authority from Congress to order the military to wage that deepening conflict.

    “To honor my oath, I am asking the court to tell the president that he must get proper authority from Congress, under the War Powers Resolution, to wage the war against ISIS in Iraq and Syria,” he wrote.

    The legal challenge comes after the death of the third American service member fighting the Islamic State and as Mr. Obama has decided to significantly expand the number of Special Operations ground troops he has deployed to Syria aid rebels there.

    Mr. Obama has argued that he already has the authority he needs to wage the conflict against the Islamic State under the authorization to fight the perpetrators of the terrorist attacks of Sept. 11, 2001, enacted by Congress shortly after the attacks.

    That argument is controversial because the Islamic State is at odds with the current leadership of Al Qaeda and its affiliate in Syria, the Nusra Front. Critics contend that the administration is stretching the Sept. 11 authorization too far by applying it to an organization that did not exist in 2001 and that operates far from Afghanistan.

    You know I'd be more inclined to fault Obama here if he hasn't repeatedly asked congress for this very thing and yet gotten nothing from them.

    I would like some money because these are artisanal nuggets of wisdom philistine.

    This isn’t the first naked jogger sighting in the neighborhood. One was spotted on the Boulevard in the Fan in 2014 and was reported in the area more than once for five years prior. A Fan resident had stated that he verbally harassed her. He stopped to share a beer with another woman.

    Why would you harass a nude jogger? And then the guy had a beer? Why is that relevant to the story?

    i guess he's not like some creepy weirdo and just some guy who likes jogging nude

    so the beer anecdote humanizes him?

    i dunno
    Ooooohhhh

    The nude jogger is the man in this story

    fuck gendered marketing

    god damn it

    i go to the cheesesteak place and order a cheesesteak for lunch. there is a new guy taking orders. i tell him i want a cheese steak with peppers and onions.

    "that's it?" he says to me.

    "yes" although i did not consider the implications of the question until later

    i get back to my desk and open my sandwich to discover that

    there
    is
    no
    cheese

    on my cheesesteak

    of course i wanted cheese you fucking idiot, it's in the goddamn name

    Apparently, in certain parts of the country "plain" takes on a whole different meaning from what plain is supposed to mean.

    Plain, by context, means "nothing". If I say "give me a burger plain" that means I want nothing on it. Plain's definition implies that "nothing should change" but if I say "burger plain" why not just say burger? It doesn't mean anything if nothing changes. It's not like I said "yes give me a burger with lettuce, plain, so just ignore that lettuce brother."

    But in some parts of the rural south and midwest "plain" means exactly that "I want this as it is on the menu". It's mind baffling, like they're not cognizant of why someone would say plain instead of just the menu item.

    I assume that's what happened here, in some form, he heard "cheesesteak" and his brain went "okay so meat on a bun sandwich, and he only wants peppers and onions.. but the cheese... hmm he didn't say cheese specifically other than reference to the sandwich, he must've meant plain cheesesteak"

    Wait what?

    Man this probably explains some pissed off Jib customers from years ago. In washington state plain means burger and bun.

    Same here.

    There's yet another subset where "plain" means no bun, or, no meat.

    It's bizarre. There's implicitness!

    But that's a bit much to expect from teenagers making minimum wage. So, I'll be happy once we have robots. Panera is already fucking awesome.

    not a doctor, not a lawyer, examples I use may not be fully researched so don't take out of context plz, don't @ me

    Hey I was just down there this past weekend!

    Coincidence?

    I'm just saying, I've never seen myself and the naked jogger at the same time.

    wait why am I trying to take credit for this

    The nude jogger perches on a chair, furtively sipping from his bottle of Michelob Ultra, his main source of nutrition, penis swinging pendulously to and fro as he takes care to watch for predators

    He can survive for up to a week on this single bottle.
