I play Diablo. But the controls are usually my stumbling point: I game on a laptop and most other games have WASD movement controls + mouse camera control. It's...really difficult to do on a laptop.

So much fun.

And to make it better, I'm traveling with my boss and her boss.

I appreciate all of your condolences. ;)

Damn. I'm so sorry.

[Becky]

Yeesh. Is it just the three of you? O_O

[colleen the convivial curmudgeon, Not a book hipster!]

There's one other guy coming who seems a decent guy, but I don't know him that well.

There's a fifth who may or may not be coming... but that's my boss's boss's boss, so that would actually be worse.

[MrsJoseph *grouchy*, Bad Girls Deadlift]

Damn.

*sending good thoughts*

[Jackie]

Yikes. Hope you're on your best behavior. ;)

Psh... no such thing!

[colleen the convivial curmudgeon, Not a book hipster!]

So, I've just been informed that my boss is "not going to be able to make the trip", so it's just me, her boss, who I can't stand, and a guy I barely know.

Fucking awesome.

And I'm expected to step up and be more proactive, since I'm now having to play her role in addition to mine.

FML

[MrsJoseph *grouchy*, Bad Girls Deadlift]

Oh, crap.

[Becky]

Break your leg. Really.

[colleen the convivial curmudgeon, Not a book hipster!]

LOL

I actually said that to Jer this morning.

"I don't want to go. Can you, like, break my leg or something?"

Alas, he would not inflict bodily injury on me...

[Becky]

Ask one of the cats to trip you going down the stairs.

[Mike (the Paladin)]

Good luck.

Lord knows they try their damndest on a regular day. ;)


Thanks, Mike.

[colleen the convivial curmudgeon, Not a book hipster!]

Whenever I change my profile picture, it takes me awhile to remember who I am...

[Mike (the Paladin)]

But then again do any of us really know who we are?????

[colleen the convivial curmudgeon, Not a book hipster!]

I'm mad. You're mad. We're all mad here.

This would be one of the most wonderful things ever:

[MrsJoseph *grouchy*, Bad Girls Deadlift]

YES

[Jeremy]

Wait - is it the book I need or the book I want? Because I could probably do without the book becoming "Advanced Concepts in Time Travel and the Reordering of Sentient Life" when I actually just want to re-read "The Dark Tower."

lol!!

I want to believe it can read my emotions and give me the book I need to read at that moment to make me feel book nirvana.

I'm sort of afraid to ask when "Advanced Concepts in Time Travel and the Reordering of Sentient Life" would ever be the book you *need*?


My interpretation is the same as MrsJ's. We're talking book nirvana, here. No more cranky-book-fussies!

[Jeremy]

It's always been the book I need, if only to know that I have it when it comes time for practical application.

I sorta stepped around that because...what if he needs it NOW?

Well, he's at work... so he probably does... >:D

Yes, yes, the "first pants then shoes" of targeting calculus. Sometimes it's so irksome to limit the scope of my inarticulate rage down just the small group of individuals that require it. It just seems so much easier to set the whole context on fire.

Did someone steal your red stapler?

[Jeremy]

colleen the fabulous fabulaphile wrote: "Did someone steal your red stapler"

In a strange, abstract kind of way I can't really describe in words: yes.

[MrsJoseph *grouchy*, Bad Girls Deadlift]

*dies laughing*

[colleen the convivial curmudgeon, Not a book hipster!]

And now I have Fiona Apple's 'Red Red Red' stuck in my head...

[colleen the convivial curmudgeon, Not a book hipster!]

I was bummed to hear about Rowdy Roddy Piper's passing.

Here's his entrance music, for a listen: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8MVaY...

Yeah. Me, too.

[Jeremy]

I still think a respectful viewing of "They Live" is required.

[Charlton]

I thought I was the only one who remembered him in that movie?
With the "special" dark glasses?

[colleen the convivial curmudgeon, Not a book hipster!]

Jeremy wrote: "I still think a respectful viewing of "They Live" is required."

Ok, I cave. ;)

[Mike (the Paladin)]

The dark glasses that give you a headache after a while...

I believe that movie has the longest fight scene of it's type in a movie. I forget exactly as I know The Quiet Man has the longest fight scene per se.

[Becky]

The fight scene in They Live is ridiculously long.

[colleen the convivial curmudgeon, Not a book hipster!]

In case anyone might care, Amazon.com now has a box set of the UK editions of three Gaiman YA/MG books - Coraline, The Graveyard Book and Fortunately, the Milk . . . - all illustrated by Chris Riddell.

I love Riddell's illustrations, so I thought I'd share: http://smile.amazon.com/Neil-Gaiman-C...

I just think this is cool:

Super Magnified Grains of Sand Become Dramatic Works of Art

[colleen the convivial curmudgeon, Not a book hipster!]

That is cool. I'm surprised by the variety.

Me, too. I wasn't expecting that at all.

[ally ¯\(ツ)/¯]

Very cool link! The detail is amazing. I had no idea sand was so colourful.

[MrsJoseph *grouchy*, Bad Girls Deadlift]

Ok, this is soooooo random, lol!


Some author that most of us will never read is tossing a tantrum over not getting people to fund her Go Fund Me account for $1k a month ($12k) so she can write at home full time with her dogs & stuff.

Whateves.

But what I found HILARIOUS is that - when people would not give her $12k - she lost her temper and called everyone "cock juggling thunder cunts."

*deep breath*


whahahahahahahahahahahahahahah!


I'm done! I have to find a way to work "cock juggling thunder cunts" into a sentence somewhere (else, lol!).

I have to admit, I when I hear this I think of the Thunder Cats and I laugh even harder.


ETA:

this pains me to admit but...it appears our sassy author plagiarized that wonderful insult from Blade Trinity.

Now I can't use it. I mean, who quotes Blade Trinity??? *sad face*

[Becky]

Uhhh, I don't know where this author lives, but where exactly can one live on $12,000 a year?

[MrsJoseph *grouchy*, Bad Girls Deadlift]

Becky wrote: "Uhhh, I don't know where this author lives, but where exactly can one live on $12,000 a month?"

She lives is a small picturesque town in Northern CA that almost 100% caters to tourists where she is supported by family, hangs with her dog all day and is an accomplished* equestrian and horse trainer.



*Not sure about the accomplished part.

ETA: Forgot to add cock juggling thunder cunt *lol*

I'm living at home on disability, but I'd like to live better. How about funding an account so i can live in the manner to which I aspire.

In return I'll give you the benefit of my wisdom, sense of humor and of course my wit!!!!

What no takers? I don't get that. I'm only asking to live on the sweat and work of others while giving little (or nothing) back in return.

I think I'll go pout now.

That's pretty much what she said...but no offers to share the benefit of her wisdom, sense of humor and wit. Instead she offers her heartfelt thanks and if you offer a lot more you get an ebook or three.

O_O

But, in order to make your pout effective, we're going to need a colorful and inventive insult. None of that run of the mill stuff. Quotables.
