Heh, not sure I ever interacted with him.life itself was a lightsaber in his hands; even in the face of treachery and death and hopes gone cold, he burned like a candle in the darkness. Like a star shining in the black eternity of space.
Yoda: Dark Rendezvous
"But those men who know anything at all about the Light also know that there is a fierceness to its power, like the bare sword of the law, or the white burning of the sun." Suddenly his voice sounded to Will very strong, and very Welsh. "At the very heart, that is. Other things, like humanity, and mercy, and charity, that most good men hold more precious than all else, they do not come first for the Light. Oh, sometimes they are there; often, indeed. But in the very long run the concern of you people is with the absolute good, ahead of all else..."

Re: THE RANT THREAD!
I'm here. 11pm. Getting ready to lick my IRS Federal return envelope. Gonna put it in my mail box in the morning. I am pretty sure I'm gonna get dinged or something. I really hope they just accept it.
Also I am going to be one day late in my state return. I read through all the penalties. I don't see anything for getting dinged when I'm actually getting a return. As if I care anymore.

Re: THE RANT THREAD!
As long as you do not owe money, you can turn in your federal taxes and still get a return up to 3 years after the fact. If you file more than 3 years after the fact and don't owe, you won't get your return back. If you owe, you need to file an extension and pay what you owe to avoid penalties for filing. If you owe and fail to file on time and file an extension, you can owe a penalty, interest, and the tax amount together.Originally posted by Medusa View PostWonderful Life: The Burgess Shale and the Nature of HistoryPagan Devotionals, because the wind and the rain is our Bible

Re: THE RANT THREAD!
I love the bullshit double standard when it comes to people playing video games. Guys? No one bats an eye when they get frustrated with a game and they start throwing a controller around. That's "normal" and people are just expected to deal with it.

Re: THE RANT THREAD!
This is an across the line double standard though so it's worse. Our society considers aggressive behavior in males normal or even something to be encouraged. The whole "boys will be boys" thing and much higher rates of boys over girls in childhood sports being examples. In contrast females should be more submissive in their mannerisms. The difference comes from how society says we should express behavior. Males are supposed to be go getters, confident and passionate. Females are more emotional but it's not "lady like" to be angry. In general any aggressive behavior is considered much more normal in males than females. Not really a justification, in the animal world it's the females that are usually bigger, stronger and likely to eat you, but a possible explanation.Originally posted by Yorin View PostCirce

Re: THE RANT THREAD!
Thanks guys. I feel much better now.
Then this happened. Last night I walked home from the bus stop as usual. I passed a box on the sidewalk and it smelled bad. Like rotten earth and garbage. Figured it was garbage next door since it was trash day. And it was dark so I couldn't see. Walked home today. Noticed the stench. Saw the box. The bottom was soaked wet. Got close and peered in. Apparently a big white fluffy kitty kat got killed on the road. Someone felt bad and put it in a box. It reeks of death. White fluffy kitty death.:='(:Satan is my spirit animal

Re: THE RANT THREAD!
This is what I am ranting about:
"On April 16th, 2014, the Board of Education took official action to impose the final offer submitted to you. This will result in a 16.71% wage reduction for all days worked from that date forward, and will begin with the May 2, 2014 payroll. This reduction will continue until the conclusion of the 2014-2015 contract year, at which time the reduction will revert to 10%, which will become the permanent wage scale."
The language I use to rant about this is so foul that even I will not type it.
I am so very f'ing screwed. So very, very, very f'ing screwed.
If any of you ever imagine that you might want to become a teacher, here's my advice cut your f'ing wrists instead. It hurts less, and pays better.Every moment of a life is a horrible tragedy, a slapstick comedy, dark nihilism, golden illumination, or nothing at all; depending on how we write the story we tell ourselves.
