Here's another little comic. Remember, corndogs^† ease the pain. Good advice.

†For those who don't know, a corndog is also known as a pogo. Ya know, the weiner on a stick smothered in heart-clogging batter goodness…

Oh dear lord!

This is, BY FAR, the most disturbing thing I've ever seen. Click on the link, it'll open in a new window. Once the clip is loaded, press the yellow button to view, and turn the sound up.

Some background here: Rainbow was a well-respected british children's show in the 70s. The cast made this for themselves, as a private joke. This was never meant to be distributed, except it made it onto a blooper reel and the rest is history :)

Watch all of it. It's sooo wrong, on sooo many levels.

Imagine this. A potential client is here for a demo. Of course, the stuff that is to be demoed, which was running perfectly last week, is no longer working because someone has been mucking with the webserver settings. Of course, I notice this while my boss is doing his sales pitch, because nobody bothered to check that everything was kosher *before* the client comes (and since I found out that the client was coming 30 minutes before he actually comes in the office, I can say that this should have been a big case of notmyproblemitis)

Frantically, I go in and start fixing stuff that's been broken without anybody bothering to tell me. I almost had to resort to troubleshooting rule #1, but I got everything up and running without the client ever noticing *buffs nails on shirt*

I rule, that is all.

Had a drink with eniran after work tonight, and I finally got to talk to her girl. “You're insane, I like you” was my favourite quote of that conversation. She sounds like a really cool person, and i can't wait to meet her. Spent the whole time at Hurleys talking about amusing topics, mostly revolving around naughty stuff. She's a natural storyteller, and she had me in stiches. T'was grand.

Came back to my place to watch Being John Malkhovich, a profoundly disturbed movie. A movie that talks about hermaphrodism and lesbian witches has to be cool.

Off to bed now, g'night.

Edit: Another quote from the movie that had us giggling like idiots: “my spunk is like manna from heaven”.

Does anybody remember this? I just ran across it today, and it's been a while since I've seen it :)

My website is getting 1 GB of traffic a day. That means I'm going to completely clobber the monthly bandwidth allocation I paid for. Ouch, that's gonna hurt…

I'm looking for a roommate, as you all know. A friend of a friend came over last week to see it, and was really interested in renting it, until she found out it was only available in july (and she wanted it for april). We left it at that. That night, I talked to my roommates, and found out both would be willing to leave early. Yay, finally some good news.

So of course the universe conspires to drive me insane. I wasn't able to reach the girl for the last week, and in the meantime, she found something else.

I am now back to square one, and highly pissed off.
