    Re: The MTA Bus Driver Was Very Rude To People

    Ya know, I once wanted to take a book out of one of the libraries in New York, but the clerk behind the desk wouldn't let me. He said "You'll have to prove that you're a citizen of New York City". So I stabbed him, took the book anyway, and ran.

      Had to replace a tire today. Nice unexpected bill there in a month where I've already spent more than I've made.

      Oh physics, thou art a heartless b!#@%.

        Re: Billy Cosby Is A Rapist

        Regarding statute of limitations, it'll depend on the form of rape (yes, the law divvies up rape just like it does murder) and the state the crimes occurred (I am orders of magnitude too apathetic to look up the accusations against Cosby). On that note

        Has a nice PDF breakdown state by state of certain general classifications and the statute of limitations per. It may or may not be legit and up to date though. I don't typically look into sex crimes and I'm going to sleep soon instead of hunting down edu links.
        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..."

        John Rowlands, The Grey King by Susan Cooper

          I've never had goals or dreams (other than those necessary to keep on living) because I never needed them. I've moved through life by avoiding things. It's not so miserable as it sounds. It can work in many situations but well, it's a dead end now.
          baah.

                "Goals and Dreams" are a binge and purge thing for me.
                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.

                  I have a goal/dream now, but it's gonna take the lottery to pull this one off in the time I have.

                    I have none of those, but I do have a purpose.

                      Re: The Rant Thread (v 1.2)

                      I was out of the office yesterday, and today proceeded to have a back and forth with a client for the last few hours, resulting in about 20 emails, and just found out that a coworker had dealt with this client yesterday for the exact same thing. Why wouldn't the client just say something? They acted as though they never had the conversation? It's so irritating, especially because said coworker and I quoted two different prices, and my coworker isn't here today. I'm leaving it for tomorrow. Urgh.

                            So a wonderful co-worker gave me this advice on how to 'fix' my heart arrythmia.

                              Weird...it totally worked for me at the same time you posted this, and I was using a VPN to watch the US Netflix with a US IP address.
