    Pony: Nuclear Response Force? I have to imagine (and hope) that's not a team that gets called on too often, but when they do, oh fuck, shit is hitting the fan. Peace officer positions sound way better than the standard police officer job, good call man.

    basically. the NRF are the armed tactical response division of the province's Nuclear Security Officers. they don't get to do a whole lot since, you know, nuclear security isn't a huge problem in this country

    but if they did have to do something it'd be a big fucking deal

    most often in terms of actual danger or work they're sometimes part of INSETs, which are temporary anti-terrorism task-forces, given that the NRF are pretty well-trained anti-terrorism guys

    I see, so the NRF are a pretty elite task force than Pony. I'm not going to lie man, there is a part of me that is super jealous of you getting on something like the NRF. I mean, it's all very immature and juvenile on my part but on some level I've still got that boyhood love of the military and guns and swat teams and special forces and whatnot.

    That's because you live in a shitty area of the country. I can choose between AT&T, Verizon, Time Warner, SuddenLink, or if I wanted to be dumb, HughesNet.

    One does not, or at least, I did not, expect to lose my virginity at work, in a bathroom, on a disabled persons table with my supervisor who was also my brother's ex.

    One does not expect these things, no sir.

    I've decided that whatever line of work I choose, it has to be something that feels important every time I'm doing it. EMT and fire fighter both work well, I was also thinking SWAT at one point but...eh.

    So, maybe.

    But, also, the book is going the way of the reel-to-reel projector as well.
    Yeah, honestly, I'm probably going to be one of the last people who actually knows how to use one of those.

    Bookstores are going to have to evolve or die. And I mean, a lot of them are doing that, turning into cafes or whatever, but really, books just aren't going to be around all that much longer. It's going to be interesting to see what replaces book stores and video rental stores, commercially speaking; like, is that just going to drive down the cost of commercial real estate?

    For work I liaise p. frequently with a cop who spent like five years as part of the Civil Nuclear Constabulary.

    Apparently it's boring as all hell, and has a tendency to attract the kind of cops who just want to look badass holding a gun.

    because I'm in a college town and college kids don't know how to yell at businesses, our internet is something like 200% marked up compared to the next county over,

    So Edmunds did a 100 worst car list. It has the 79 Datsun 280ZX on it. I'm not sure Edmunds knows what the word worst means.

    Depends on the climate. They're pretty rare in the UK because they're basically water-soluble.

    Their argument is that it's awful because it wasn't the Z.

    I think that's just the eighties model syndrome, though.

    Nobody thinks the model of any range that was produced in the eighties was as good as the preceding model.

    The 80's were kind of a dark time for cars. But putting the 280ZX on that list is wrong. Just wrong. And there are some models from that era I like. Some of the K-Car variants like the Daytona are cars I love. And I will always have a soft spot for the Sundance since it was my first car. It was a coupe! It was a hatchback! It was cherry red!

    I used to have this ticket in my hand, but then I took an arrow to the knee.

    So, being the generous fellow I am, I look up the part that was on the ticket... looks like it wasn't available from Vendor1, so we ordered it from Vendor2 as well, as a backup.

    Me: "Did the ticket go with the stuff from Vendor2?"

    Him: "Well, we did sell one from them, yeah. But I had it with my Vendor1 stuff and then it wasn't there"

    Me: "So, we only have the one sale, and you did sell one out of the Vendor2 stuff with a ticket?"

    Him: "Yes, but..."

    Me: "I DUNNO IT'S A MYSTERY"

    Idiot at my work is transferring to another job in two weeks. She's not only not doing her job, multiple times a day for the last 3 weeks she's had to declare "I'm done, I don't want to deal with it." and basically refused to do work. She was openly sleeping 10 minutes ago. She spends more time talking about her ghetto-ass friends and the guys she is dating. She wasn't even a bad worker (if not particularly good) before. She apparently doesn't have any idea that this might piss the rest of us off, or that she's burning her bridges behind her.

    I mean just shut up and don't do you job if you don't want to. Calling attention to it is just pissing people off
