the laws of physic state that 2 objects can't occupy the same space so the one car crushes in the other car =)
Also he might be asian, just sayin.

That's the explanation of the result, not the cause. It's difficult to envision an everyday situation where someone can back a car into the side of a car; usually it's a hit to the front or hit to the bumper when they are trying to line up or back out.

I'm not saying it didn't happen, just curious as to how dumb/careless someone has to be to do that. I also don't see what the Asian thing has to do with anything.

That's nice of them and I agree with you, but they're enabling their son from what I've gathered so far.

Windows 8 at work ****ing sucks.

In 4 weeks time half our company will be one OS behind the times, and the other half will be 2 OS behind the times.

Meanwhile we are all still three versions of Internet Explorer behind.
Can we get them to build the Alps ten feet higher and get Cherry to pay for it?

if so, change closet to self-deprecating.

I will honestly apologize if you're having a bad day and the fact that i obviously added to that, I don't normally go trollin around but i'm in an energetic mood and the opportunity presented itself.

Here's a flying pikachu to brighten your day.

nah man you couldn't have made it any worse, and you definitely got me: my jimmies were definitely rustled :D

i've had mild insomnia and i've run into a ****load of bigoted people lately (some college kids in a beater cavalier screaming "ching chang chong" as they drove by). that stuff usually doesn't get to me, but you know, insomnia  :))

anyway, apologies should be on me, haha. the flying pikachu helps  :)

I have a sleep technique guaranteed to work.

Close eyes.  Imagine you're on a ship like in water world.

Then embark on a vivid adventure.

Do not think about sleeping. Do not worry if this is working.  Just go with your imagination and paint this world.

Feel the waves beneath you. The lonely sea.. The cool and calm. The isolation.

You will fall asleep before you know it.  Max 15 minutes.

You can make it a ship wreck..

Give it a beginning , a middle,  BUT the ending is open ended, and you're riding it out.


For example..


You're ship wrecked.. EVERYONE else dies...  except you...  A big secondary raft full of supplies is also teathered to your raft...

There's lots of everything...  including a shipment of contraband Cocaine and Liquor..



You may decide to do Life-of-Pi with this one. minus the tiger


OR..


You can make it to an island...  Decide that, hell YOU DON'T want to be FOUND.. EVER..


Then you survive on the island..




If you get TOOOO lonely,  you could always imagine that you've also rescued a pair of golden retrievers, a boy and a girl dog.. So that gives you an endless supply of animal companionship for the island.

WARNING !!!

It's important there's no "perverse nature" to this scenario,  for example, you save a pretty girl.



I tried a scenario like that,  and in every case  it becomes stressful as I begin to include the dynamics of a replicant population..


Fundamentally, what helps a person sleep in the faux-universe is an escape from humanity, its requirements, and its rules..

The majority of the human doctrine is dependent upon having a Male and Female human..


Without which, society has NO PROBLEMS whatsoever..  because we're just waiting to DIE.



That is what going-to-sleep is..  a calm wait for death, there's freedom in it..


Of course the good part is you don't actually die,  you are just temporarily relieved of having to deal with the world and its problems.

Some of those look weird if you scroll the browser window at just the right speed.
"Because keyboards are accessories to PC makers, they focus on minimizing the manufacturing costs. But that’s incorrect. It’s in HHKB’s slogan, but when America’s cowboys were in the middle of a trip and their horse died, they would leave the horse there. But even if they were in the middle of a desert, they would take their saddle with them. The horse was a consumable good, but the saddle was an interface that their bodies had gotten used to. In the same vein, PCs are consumable goods, while keyboards are important interfaces." - Eiiti Wada

Windows 8 at work ****ing sucks.

In 4 weeks time half our company will be one OS behind the times, and the other half will be 2 OS behind the times.

Meanwhile we are all still three versions of Internet Explorer behind.

Windows 8 isn't the greatest OS ever, but the problem of modernizing (haha) the users is compounded by the whiners who hate change and the lazy people who refuse to watch a 10 minute video on how to use the new OS. They would rather spend 20 minutes of confusion every day and complain for another 40 minutes per day than do a few minutes of learning.
I'm back.

oh this crazy western world where people pay for windows.
(...)Whereas back then I wrote about the tyranny of the majority, today I'd combine that with the tyranny of the minorities. These days, you have to be careful of both. They both want to control you. The first group, by making you do the same thing over and over again. The second group is indicated by the letters I get from the Vassar girls who want me to put more women's lib in The Martian Chronicles, or from blacks who want more black people in Dandelion Wine.
I say to both bunches, Whether you're a majority or minority, bug off! To hell with anybody who wants to tell me what to write. Their society breaks down into subsections of minorities who then, in effect, burn books by banning them. All this political correctness that's rampant on campuses is b.s.

Just spilled a **** load of blue loctite on my pants. It looked like I have fluorescent blue urine and pissed myself.

Good-by old khakis, you've served me well these past few years.
People in the 1980s, in general, were clearly just better than we are now in every measurable way.

The dumber the reason the more it must be done

One time I was in the shop working on fiberglass and got some of the resin epoxy stuff on my nice shorts (it was the weekend, time to dress down). There's now a spot on them that looks like I forgot to clean properly after I had a *ahem* good time. It's funny to me and I still rock them. Embrace it!

Today has been a rough day for my pants, at this point they're trashed. I'm so glad I didn't wear nice jeans.

I had a nightmare last night ...

Unicomp came out with a TKL SSK.  However, the quality was about as good as a Ducky 1087 XM :(

What's worse - the entire function row had the same profile keycaps as the bottom row of the Matias 60% (wtf)

*shivers*
