They are highly-suspicious of all newcomers and hostile to almost everyone, including themselves. The only thing they don't take seriously is Discordianism.

Roger called it. These people know exactly what they're doing.

Did you overhear the cackling after their "patient" left?

They is:
A dude with a beard who blabs.
A manager, whose wife is
The assistent.

They were talking about heading off potential lawsuits.
They are basically building an Ascended Master, planning a book.

And this guy has some minor skill. He's been thrown a couple curveballs. He's talked with dead people (relatives), angels.

He "enters your body and looks into your past. You've been a pharaoh in egypt."

He's doing a séance on wednesday.

"There may be a seat available."

Yeah, I've been having some throttling issues as of late.


And by that, I mean I want to throttle everyone at Comcast.

I know not everyone is in areas where fios is set up, but sweet merciful fuck if you have the choice switch.

Just made all the bad things vanish, the junk removal guys took all of ten minutes and were super nice, and it was less expensive than I was expecting. Also, they were happy everything was properly staged and ready to go. Everyone has a good morning!

Got an email back from my math professor.

She was in fact amused and said that she's already enjoying me being her student. I'll have to keep the spaggotry up.

So my internet is still fucky. Would someone mind checking the internet to see if there are known outages in Portland? The thing that really sucks about this is that I have an online class that starts today and I need to log on, which means that I guess I'm going back to campus to do that.

You with Comcast?

Yes.

Sorry, fell asleep.  Yes, problem with Comcast in Portland. 

Hell, problems with Comcast generally.  They are blatantly ignoring web neutrality already, prioritising preferred clients over...other websites.  I have a friend in Texas who does livestreaming, and because his site is not on Comcast's special people list, he frequently gets fucked over...especially if some kind of computer nerd convention is happening at the same time.

Funny, how that always turns out to be the case.  Sadly, Comcast are the only people who provide fast enough internet without him having a server in his basement, so...

Thank you! That's fucked. And my internet is STILL fucked, and there's nothing I can do about it. It's awesome, given that one of my classes is entirely online and the other two have lots of online homework.

In other news, today I was told that although the prerequisite for Chem 221 is math 111, and the prerequisite for Chem 222 is Chem 221, and the prerequisite for Chem 223 is Chem 222, and NOWHERE in my degree requirements does it say I need Calculus, IN FACT it specifically says Calculus OR Statistics so I took Statistics because I know that's required for graduate school, today, TODAY I was informed that I need to take trig and calc for my next two chemistry classes.

WHY DOES THIS PISS ME OFF?

Well, because if I'd known I needed them I would have taken them IN SEQUENCE AFTER ALGEBRA instead of taking Stats, because now it's been nine months since I finished algebra and that means, naturally, that I've forgotten most of it. Stats I could have taken at any time, it doesn't really flow naturally from algebra like trig does.

It also borks my projected graduation date. Oh the fuck well. I guess I'm back to double majoring, then. Fuck it.
