  1. I picked up typing "NFBSK" over on the Snopes forums, before I got kicked out for counter-trolling a troll (also for fomenting messageboard revolution, but that was after they tried to silence me the first time by requiring all my posts to be approved by a mod - the vindictive NFBSKs. Among my other favorite cuss phrases/insults that I've stolen from other sources over the years are:
  2. Hah! That sounds like from Terry Pratchett's book What do you do at this Main Campus? I'm not currently at Main Campus, I'm at a small 1-building branch campus - which is apparently about to be closed, meaning that I will be transferred and have to commute to the Main Campus and work a new job, which will cause me all kinds of hardship, hence the aforementioned cussing. (No one bothered to TELL us, we found out by ACCIDENT.) My title is "Library Technician," though I do very little librarianing anymore, and would be more accurately called a "facilities manager" or "jack-of-all-trades" because I do a little bit of everything. On Topic: GODDAMNIT. Yesterday, the State Education Board of Governors, may tiny fleas infest their underwear drawers and bite their naughty bits, fired the University President. The central black hole of M-31 cannot serve to contain my fury.
  3. Only when appropriate. And I try to do it creatively when I can, without making use of actual "cuss words." For example, just the other day I referred to someone on Main Campus as a "useless inbred mental defective with the intellectual capacity of a rotten grapefruit."
  4. Just found out out the university I work at is going to be shuttering most of our facility at the end of June. Unless a miracle occurs and they decide to let me stay to work the parts that remain, this is bad. My work commute will suddenly go from 5 minutes to 50 minutes, both ways each day. With the price of gas and my car's mpg, that's gonna get real expensive real quick. (Goodbye, comic book budget, among other things!) Buy a new car? I can't afford that right now. OR, I could move closer... but then I'd be living in the middle of nowhere, and lose much access to the good doctor and good hospital that I and the gf have become accustomed to, plus there's the pain in the butt of selling a mortgaged house and trying to find a new one that I can also afford. Crap crap crap crap.
  5. Forget dragons and computers. I don't want to live in a world without flush toilets.
  6. Oh, that's easy. 2-1-2019. (21,20,19.) Or not.
  7. She looks like some crazy nazi scientist. Geez! I should've put my normal picture wiithout the glasses! No. Glasses increase the hotness by a factor of some number I'll make up later.
  8. Aw geez, hot and clever. We're doomed.
  9. Nah. Babyface. The last time I was clean-shaven, I was mistaken for a very tall catholic school student. And I'm not the type to do anything that would risk a slap in the face. It was always much easier to assume females didn't know I exist. Heck, when I was in school, the ONE girl who did come up to me and blatantly let on that she was interested... I didn't believe her. Mainly because she was two years older than me, hot, in the "popular mean girls" crowd, and good friends with the guys on the football team, who were my hated enemies. She was setting me up. Damn, why am I telling you this? My therapist appointment isn't until tomorrow.
  10. Avengers. 20/10. The first time in a VERY long time I've been in a theater where the audience actually CHEERED parts of the movie. And the first time at all that I can recall that a crowded theater kept the f*** QUIET for most of the movie.
  11. Not really. I've always had a severe case of Not Able To Tell If She's Interested.
  12. have you tried the "RL Pic Thread"? I'm on page 3.
  13. sure, and buy glasses Well, buy NEW, more Freeman-style glasses. I already have glasses, as from decades of constant reading, I am nearsighted like a baws.
  14. I already have this. All I'd have to do would be to shave the sides off my standard beard.
  15. So hurry up and set yourself on fire. Then I'll believe you're not a troll.
  16. It used to be a smart show that offended everybody, then it became a show that offended everybody and went for the gross -out. I stopped watching a lng time ago... Though i have caught some of the better episodes, like the one with the "Plane..arium" and the ones that offended the luluboomers.
  17. Inedible. (Wayyy too many onions, peppers, and tomatoes on that hoagie for my taste.)
  18. Looks like someone wants to get Fraped again...
  19. No, that was "Super." Everybody's stupid, but people are stupid in different ways. I'll give you an example: lately, in political news, the following things happened. Romney talked about Obama eating dogs as a child. Obama talked about Romney driving around with a dog on top of his car. Both of these things are stupid, as well as irrelevant to the larger question of who is suited to govern the country. They are stupid for saying them. Anyone who makes a decision based on those statements is also stupid. I'm stupid when it comes to other people. Their emotions, thoughts and reasons for the things they do (especially the stupid things) are a mystery to me. I cannot comprehend you all.
  20. *SNEEZE* *SNEEZE* *SNEEZE* Dammit, what is up with my allergies today??
  21. People are stupid, very stupid, and extraordinarily stupid. There are no non-stupid people, only people who are stupid in differing ways. "You are a goddamn idiot. I’d like to prove this mathematically: Take your age. Now subtract ten years. Were you smart back then? No, you were a goddamn idiot. The fact is, you’re still a goddamn idiot, it’s just going to take ten more years before you realize it." -- Church.
  22. Cut consumption, and take much more advantage of that giant fusion reactor in the sky. (and mine the asteroids, which people sre finally starting to take seriously. http://abcnews.go.com/Technology/mining-asteroids-real-story-planetary-resources-space-startup/t/story?id=16197612
  23. The thing is he is not a marjiuana smoker himself, he talks about the government deciding what we can put in our own bodies. So my description was wrong (Ill change it). What he needs to talk about is how much your decision to abuse your body ends up costing ME. If you're gonna libertarianize your body, you shouldn't want to socialize your consequences. Isn't it interesting that the same people who push to deregulate marijuana are usually behind the pushes to regulate salt, fat, sugar, et cetera ad nauseum?
  24. I'm amused by the way he says that "government uses our apathy against us" while advocating for a drug that tends to increase apathy.
  25. Too damned easy. And done by too many people who really out to know better. Take people excusing things like theft, because a poor person did it. The VAST majority of the time, theft is about wants, not needs. Seriously, who steals FOOD anymore? Who has to? When you hear that someone broke into a house, you don't hear "two loaves of bread and six tins of meat were taken." You hear about the stolen TV and stereo and game system, or what-have-you. There are easier ways to get food than stealing it. Video/software piracy? 100% about wants. (To tie this in to another thread.) To be fair people who steal electronics such as TV's usually do it because it is an item with usually a guaranteed high value as well as it is easy to find and will most likely just be sold for money. Money with said thief can buy food. That is not to say that people will use it for food or whatever, I am simply pointing out that that it still has an equal chance of being stolen because of need rather than want. No, nobody steals for money for food, because food is still easier to get. If someone steals something to resell for money, it is infinitely more likely that they will be spending that money on drugs, which is another "want."
