Complain about your schedule. Apparently people like that sort of thing.

At no time did I rearrange the order of the words. :-)

Context is important.

We have a new production guy starting today. I wonder how long it will take us to break this one? We erode the will of even the toughest person. One of the admin staff quit after two weeks. Thats the record to beat!

QOTD: Let me think....

no. Never.

Finally got signed up for my benefits at work. God damn does the benefits package suck (at least compared to Amazon, though it's still way better than every other job I've had otherwise). But there's plenty of other perks that help to balance that out.

qotd: Many times. Including the Seattle P-I for Song Fight Wet and Wild. They mistakenly listed fluffy porcupine as a low-rent act, instead of a no-rent act. Most of my newspaper mentions have been for school-related things though. Oh, and Forbes and Publisher Weekly have done early reviews of the product I was working on for two years (which still hasn't fucking launched), and two games I've worked on have been reviewed by a lot of gaming sites. Though those don't really count as personal mentions, I suppose. But still. Forbes.

Yeah.

today's Spokesman-Review had maybe my favorite secondary headline ever, below a story about Larry Craig: "Continues to deny wrongdoing, being gay". That's straight from The Onion, man.

Boob Time

Post by fodroy »

I am a professional shark. Fuck yes. And it is boob time. Boob time is my favorite time. I open Netscape Explorer and make every time a boob time. I start chugging a Maudite and looking at human boobs on the internet when some dildo from Balls Ave. or something comes snorkeling by and he’s an ass, right? You know? Like I totally want to eat him but it’s boob time, so no. I’m busy. I open up iChat and Giant Squid is on. I say, Hey. He says, Hey. I’m like, Some dildo is ruining boob time. He’s like, Shit. And I’m like, I know. He says, Want me to come over and kill him? I say, Ok. Then he’s pretty much there right away because he was only swimming fifty feet from me, you know. I say, That’s the dildo. He goes, Uh-huh, and chokes him to death with a tentacle. Then we chug 100,000,000 Maudites and look at boobs on my computer. Boob time is saved! Boob time is awesome! All hail boob time! All hail boob time!

QOTD:
A few times. I've saved them all, but I'm too drunk to scan them to show everyone my little 15 minutes of famezez. :P

My two favorite ones were for my band and for my business.
The business one was an Orange County paper doing a piece on local entrepreneur. I looked really cool in the pic, I thought anyway.

The band one was in one of our all time fav music rags here in Orange County. We were in quite a few small papers that no one reads, but this one was our big whoopty doo. We didn't know that they came to watch us play one night, but it just so happened to be one of those perfect gigs with tons of people, about 300, that were in a major rocking mood. The guy that did the article said awesome stuff about us. After reading his other articles, he is tough on original bands, so I felt ever cooler after I found that out. Of course we never amounted to anything, but he seemed to think we would, lol.

I'm glad I didn't have the word ogle in there or something! And BLT, the only time the word pretty is thrown at me is when it's in front of words like stupid or fugly. :(
