Q. G. Pennyworth

There's a point to drinking other than varying degrees of shitface?

Certainly.  Personally, I cherish the "burning ball of fish hooks down my throat" more than the drunk.

Today I authored a stupid little tweet that somehow went semi-viral (86 retweets/113 favorites at the moment, my tweets usually only get response from my friends):
"I wrote my name in the snow while waiting for the bus and suddenly I was a member of AUF."
This is a reference to AUF (the youth wing of the Norwegian Labour Party, target for the attacks in 2011)'s very dubious recruitment tactics, getting 13-14 year old kids to sign petitions against racism or bullying or whatever and then, without their knowledge, registrating them as members.
Now, to get something not as stupid and silly to the same level of popularity.

On hold with AAA again. No supervisors are available again. They claim they didn't get my fax but quoted me something from the cover-page I hadn't told this new lackey.

AAaaaaand they want me to re-send the FAX I sent a week ago because they can't find it.

. . .

I have two dollars left to my name. Let's see if it's enough to fax a Fuck-you-gram.

What is up with all these companies that are apparently stuck in 1989? WHO THE FUCK USES FAX MACHINES?

Mmm yessssss

I wish they made a low-alcohol bourbon that tasted just as bad and burned just as much. That's why I ALWAYS buy green label, never black.

OSHA was still using them a few years ago. I remember having to go to the library and fax a complaint at $2 a page. :P

I've used faxes working for Dr. S. I faxed things to my college a couple of weeks ago. It's still a reasonable enough tech, though admittedly, PDFs and Emails do make more sense.

No.  You always come back.  Sooner or later.
