“Man Commits Suicide After Sex with Hen”

what is the world coming to?…

what rocket scientist decided that laptop hard drives should use different sized jumpers than regular hard drives? and why the hell can’t you go buy them anywhere? and when you ask about them why does everyone (including the manufacturer!!!) say “oh, that’s odd, try somewhere else”?…

sitting here, bored. listening to the stupid cicadas keep throwing themselves against the office windows. creepy little bastards.

so last night we went and picked up the replacement aquarium hood for andrea’s aquarium. and ate at the double T diner. and went to bestbuy so andrea could drool over a laptop and i could get an IDE cable to try hooking up our old hard drives in my new machine to see what could be salvaged. on the plus side, we got all andrea’s stuff back, and some stuff off the operating system drive from the little file/print server box that we had before (idoru). but the data drive from idoru doesn’t run, the drive with all the application installers, archived artwork from t-shirts i made and my entire MP3 collection. i’ve got my fingers crossed that the drive from my laptop will still work (had to get an adapter for it) but i haven’t tried it yet (it’s still in dad’s garage right now). fingers crossed!

*** influx is now known as clownshoes
*** nifkin is now known as rectal_haberdasher

i think one of the most frequently recurring “oh, you lost that in the fire” things that keeps cropping up is my t-shirts. stuff i made, friends made, concert shirts. just all the ones i liked and i won’t find again. just kinda frustrating wehen i think about it…

they had to take someone who had been stuck in the elevator here to the hospital. and here i thought this wasn’t going to be an exciting evening…

now if everyone would clear out of the way of the stairwell (since god knows i’m not using the elevators now) so i could leave it would be perfect…

the weather here is totally making this seem like things are going to erupt into some sort of murder mystery party. like the lights will cut out and then it when they come back there will be a corpse on the floor…

then before you can hit the “publish” button you’ll be accosted by the executive VP and the president who founded the company in france. huzzah…

if you’re good little children, i’ll tell you about how the elevators all failed and they had everyone trapped in them…

thank you easter bunny…

(130 * 3) + 70 = 460
460 + {shipping} = 700

wtf? shipping is over 50% of the cost of the order itself? who the hell came up with that idea?

Scholars plan to espouse merits of ‘Buffy the Vampire Slayer’ - Tuesday, 05/25/04

Why would Buffy the Vampire Slayer, a television show created by a self-avowed “angry atheist,” attract legions of Christian fans? Or, on a broader scale, why would such a show attract the attention of serious scholars from several rigorous academic disciplines?

Andrea: i saw the angels do a trick
Andrea: flying in formation
DESTROY NIFKIN: :)
Andrea: they are kind of creepy though
DESTROY NIFKIN: it’s always a little scary, like if there’s a mistake it will be grandiose in scale
Andrea: i just think “nuclear bomb”
Andrea: sid was not effected much though
Andrea: he would get a “what the fuck” look on his face, and the continue eating
DESTROY NIFKIN: he’s sorta funny that way
DESTROY NIFKIN: you think he’d be more upset by some things but he doesn’t give a shit
DESTROY NIFKIN: then he freaks out over a mexican dude with a paint can
Andrea: maybe he doesnt like mexicans
