That, was beautiful. :thumbs: :thumbs: :thumbs: :thumbs: :thumbs:

Car guy; "Say … that’s a nice looking car you’ve got over there.
What kind of tranny carbo-luber does it have?"

Matt; "I have no idea.
And you know what?
NEITHER DO YOU!"

 

[Psinter]

Yeah, I'm that bored

Love Beauty Youth. Yup, I'm so linear.

http://theoatmeal.com/comics/tesla_model_s]Growing[/PLAIN] up, my stepfather loved to work on old cars. Every now and then he'd ask me to help, and after a few minutes of doing everything wrong, I'd get yelled at and be subsequently demoted from "automotive assistant" to "idiot who holds the flashlight."

Dammit, that described me perfectly. Isn't there some description ribbon at PF like those that say "Sci Advisor", but instead of that it reads: "Idiot who holds the flashlight"? Cause I'm pretty sure I'd get it (if my father worked here).

Mine were: time, experience, and loy.

Though I do not know what "loy" means.

hmmm...

Did you know that "OmCheeto" kind of means; "I am an idiot"?

Really? I didn't know. I can't really find a secret message in it. Perhaps another language? In any case, do you want to hold the flashlight with me then? Or can you fasten a screw without "screwing" it out? Hahaha! (Damn screws, they either get stripped on the head or the thread strips).

Nah, we are still fabulous... but in our own ways. *writes down Flashlight holder in resume*

No no no no no no: "Papoy".

Is it bad to eat pizza and drink milk? -__-''

 

[Lisa!]

Doesn't milk ruin the taste of pizza?

 

[OmCheeto]

It's Cantonese for; "I know nothing".
Or a mantra cheese snack, depending on where you're from.

I'm an expert at screwing up screws. So yes, I will be your flashlight holder in arms.

ps. I've discovered that a loy is a type of shovel, used for digging potatoes.

 

[lendav_rott]

it's never bad to drink milk, if you get quality milk wherever it is you live, but pizza..once in every few months doesn't hurt.

 

[drizzle]

#@!$ it! I am hungry. I just ate pizza before going to bed..

I'm still sleepy and tired. *ignores hunger and goes back to sleep*

Why is the thanks badge visible for admins and not for mentors?

 

[Borek]

Why is the thanks badge visible for admins and not for mentors?

It is not. I can't see thanks badges. Only Greg can.

 

[drizzle]

But.. It's there in your profile, no?

 

[Borek]

Sorry, I messed up.

Must be a bug.

 

[drizzle]

A bug? Keep it, I think it's a good idea to show the thanks admins and mentors have.

 

[tridianprime]

Yeah, I'm that bored

Hmmm. Love, Money and Power. Next after that was freedom. I feel like I should want to deny it.

Bad news: An engine light came on in my 2006 Prius yesterday. I took it to the dealer today and was told that the hybrid battery pack has failed. Cost: $4,000.

Good news: The 8 year warrenty on the battery doesn't expire until August. Cost: Frrrreeeeeee!

I'm sorry to hear that dl.

 

[drizzle]

I'm so sorry to hear that, dl. My condolences. :(

 

[Borek]

My condolences, Don.

 

[Lisa!]

RIP lovely Rosa Lee!

 

[Borg]

My condolences also Don.

 

[dlgoff]

Wow. Thanks for the condolences all.

 

[jim hardy]

Yes - i missed the post earlier . She was no doubt doubt special.
And soooo very pretty ! What a nice remembrance .

One somewhat interesting job offer (low pay, long commute, interesting company) another interview todayfor a job (more hours, on campus, less interesting) and for an internship (mathematical oncology - Mega-super-interesting, on campus, good opportunity - no pay). I have a pretty good chance at the less interesting, closer job.
I love that opportunity is knocking, but really, did it have to bring all its weird friends? I'm so confused.

Definitely taking the internship if it is offered though. This is a good problem to have. :)

[dkotschessaa]

Wow, went from being unemployed to having 2 job offers and an internship. I guess people were right about this having a degree thing...

 

[lendav_rott]

It always depends on who you know :) Degrees can help, but if you know people then you're set.

I didn't know any of these people.

 

[lendav_rott]

Pretty soon you will be the one who people have to know :)

 

[dkotschessaa]

Pretty soon you will be the one who people have to know :)

Indeed, as soon as I announced my internship about 3 other people I know wanted in on it. lol

Looking for old posts, you find the most interesting posts.

I used to be the nicest person on earth. Everyone said my only fault was that I was too nice.

Now I am a mean, old, crotchety, set in my ways, harpie. I prefer the dark and would be happy living in a cave.

I enjoy gourmet cooking, gardening, astronomy and ancient history. I am owned by a cat that runs an illegal possum smuggling ring and a canine fruitbat.

Evo and I, are apparently twins, separated at birth...

Sorry Evo, this means we can't get married.

Unless of course... <inappropriate banjo reference music deleted>

Trying to get back into running after stopping a month ago; the high afterwards is addicting. Some quality new shoes I recently bought make it seem more inviting. And chronic burnout make it seem necessary; other cardio workouts seem too mild in terms of results. I see some friends who seem to get by exercise-wise by just walking, even if they do it for 40 minutes or so, at a good rate, I can't see how walking would work for someone young.

I just found out PMoscow was not the capital of Prussia. Michelle Pfeiffer said so.

... there are the aches, pains, syndromes and indignities that come with age. Our prostates act up. Our once ironclad stomachs get delicate. We have more trouble sleeping. For a full list of all of the maladies that beset men as they age, just watch the pharmaceutical commercials during the evening news: Acid reflux. Joint pain. Erectile dysfunction. Frequent urination. (No wonder we get so easily pissed off.)

The reasons behind Grumpy Old Man syndrome

I'm not sure I agree with these reasons, but for what ever reasons, I wear my grumpiness like a badge. I figure after all these years, I've earned it. Just sayin'

It's raining almost everyday over here. I love it. :!)

Polish nationalists sung anti-gay slogans to The Village People's "Go West" tune. Go figure.

My family thinks its cute to call me "doctor" now. I just entered the Phd program (with only a bachelors) I think it's a bit of an insult to people that have worked their *sses off to get through grad school. I have to convey this thoughtfully.

Lucky you, I doubt I can even manage to enter one after my masters with the grades I'm getting right now...
