So, I may have a straight job again, back in my field.

Which is good, because - and I can't believe I'm saying this - I'm getting sick of slapping people.

I am, for the PD record, supercrazydiculously in love with Alty. Like, why did he ever even live in Alaska when he was clearly meant to be here making me stupid happy?

C:  I didn't say it before, but I'm really happy for youse guys.

I got made admin of a huge philosophy group despite the fact that I specifically said that I don't want to be admin and have low tolerance for philosophiical wankery.  :kingmeh:

Wow... and they just went and screwed the duck anyway. I'd start deleting posts and challenging complainers to prove that they ever existed so I can Socratically troll them until they ban me. Involuntarily admining someone should be a dicey decision at best.

Life can be seen as a game with no reset button, no extra lives, and if the power goes out there is no restarting.  If that's all you see life as you are not long for this world, and never will get it.

Very glad to hear sir!  :)

Like any art, once you're slapping folks around as work it just loses something.

My shit list: Stephen Harper, anarchists that complain about taxes instead of institutionalized torture, those people walking, anyone who lets a single aspect of themselves define their entire personality, salesmen that don't smoke pipes, Fredericton New Brunswick, bigots, philosophy majors, my nemesis, pirates that don't do anything, criminals without class, sociopaths, narcissists, furries, juggalos, foes.

Reply to every single thread with "Actually, that's wrong." Ideally, after several people have voiced their dumb ideas.

NEVER type anything else in the group.
