Off work all week!!1 :o

Slept in this morn. Went and ate lunch with the gf, which is something I never get to do. Cleaned out the gutters and did yard work. Played fetch with the pooch. 'Bout to go for a bike ride.

SXSW the rest of the week. :01:

If'in we don't hear from youself wiffin a week, then we'll resolved that you'll've shot yourself and the Texas border'll've gained itself another hundred rednecks.

[chalice]

In retrospect. I have no fucking idea what I meant with the above, Skiz, so I'm hoping you'll forgive me.

[ziggyjuarez]

I hear Ciudad Juárez has great bike trails if ur near the border.

Like the Emperor's New Clothes, but with badly drawn words.

[manker]

Regarding Idol, he's all to fuck but he does it on porpoise.
I tried to take him to task once but I think that's his goal because it only served to perpetuate the punctuation pebble-dash.

Btw, skizo, wtf is SXSW :blink:

I've roped along with that in numerous cases, admittedly. But at some point you begin being Zed.

And at that point, unless you're Zed, you're fucked.

I'm not as confident as you in zed's non-fuckedness
Last time he came back, he was on about melting plastic in the oven with his son.

I don't even.

[mjmacky]

First tell me how you got him to make that face

Maybe this explanation is not specifically directed towards you, but for clarity's sake that is Mark Foley. He's a former Floridian congressman who resigned in shame when it was discovered he was conducting inappropriate relationships with young page boys.

Why the fuck would he melt his son in the oven with some plastic! That's fucking horrible! You can go on about the pedals all you like but that is seriously fucked up! :blink:

[mjmacky]

I'm not buying that serious explanation of his posting habits that he created in The Drawing Room.I think he is merely looking for a way to cover his ass when the Feds seize his computer.

Grief your ass seized.

The oven is an old disused gas chamber which the family camp out in occasionally to melt plastic and talk about dead jews.

I'm GMT+13 so at 12:36 a.m. after a long, long day my wit, such that it is, is somewhat blunted. I know we have oodles of chemists ready to extoll the virtues of various substances of an upperish formulation, but I'm about ready to fall asleep in my coffee. :bye:

Btw, skizo, wtf is SXSW :blink:

South By Southwest.

Wtf it is is slightly complex. It's a huge annual music and film event here in Austin. The city is absolutely packed with artists and celebs. It's tough to go out on the town and not see a couple of recognizable faces or at least one of the big stars. I started coming to SXSW about 15 years ago when it was $25 for a wristband and all the music was exclusive to 6th Street. Now it's around $550 (12 pounds) just for the music wristband, takes place all over downtown and there are literally countless shows going on all day and night. The number must be in the thousands over just a six day period.

It's become well known for it's secret shows over the years. Metallica showed up and played a full set to around 3,000 people. Kanye showed up a couple years ago and played in a small venue. Rumor has it he'll be here again this year. Yesterday, Jay-Z showed up at the interactive portion to promote something and played a short set to a very limited crowd. Lady Gaga is rumored to have a secret show somewhere. Anyhow, if you like live music there's nothing quite like it. :)

[Snee]

Why couldn't it be someone no one would miss, like, idk, Michael Bay or Ron Paul :(

ffs, I just read some of his stuff as well, and was sort of thinking that it'd be nice if he came out with something new.

I'm talking something like Incal here, not Blueberry, ofc.

Just having a bit of juvenile fun with Google translate's regional pronunciations ("listen" icon clicks).
British: manker yanked on my wanker (http://translate.google.co.uk/#en|en|manker%20yanked%20on%20my%20wanker%0A%0A)
American: manker yanked on my wanker (http://translate.google.com/#en|en|manker%20yanked%20on%20my%20wanker%0A%0A)

For direct comparison I used the exact same words, but this is how the Brits would really say it:
British version of the manker wanker yanker (http://translate.google.co.uk/#en|en|oi%20governor%2C%20that%20manker%20chap%20keeps%20yanking%20on%20my%20wanker%20he%20does%0A)

I seriously considered calling someone a fuckwit :earl: Decided I don't hate my job enough, tho. I didn't get laid off once for doing it without learning something :pro:

Not the boss of me, obv. I answer directly to the proper boss-man, thank jebus.

Can't you do it with humour?

idrc if someone here calls me a fuckwit if either I'm being a fuckwit or if it's accompanied with an eyebrow raise or an awkward smile.

[manker]

Got two hawt burds off today, one is ill, which is fair enough, I'll pay her as normal. The other one has an ill kid and she thinks he is too ill for her to leave with the kid's grandmother.

I've never had this before :eyebrow:

It's not like he will get better any quicker if she doesn't go to work and ... well ... I've had to make my own cawfee once already today and I've even answered the phone.


I'll address this question to those of you who aren't unemployable doletards: what would your employer do in this situation? Is a sick child a valid reason for time off work?

[mjmacky]

It's a better excuse than I'd be able to use. Such as "last night's late night fast food isn't sitting well" and "Time got away from me while playing the XBOX".

You're just not being creative enough! Take your first excuse example, simply working the word 'explosive' into the description will bring about an amazing reaction from the employer, a shaking of the head as they inform you that that is enough information, and come back when you are better.

Not sure about the second one though.... probably a complete falsehood is the only way to shine that one up.....

I have used both excuses in the past (the first one more than a few times), I'm just an honest guy like that.

[manker]

So you're basically saying I should pay her this time but make it clear that next time she'll need to choose between hard cash and her sick child.

Yeah. I'd come to that conclusion too.

[mjmacky]

Does she not have any personal leave time?

[Snee]

@manker: it's the law, so yes :dabs:

If it were up to me, we'd start off any interview by asking if they have children, especially women, cos they are the worst, and just stop there if the answer is yes. Cos fuck covering for someone who's gone every other week, like some.

My next question would be if they really have any decent computer skills. If it's a woman

[Snee]

The third would be 'are you sure'?

'cos we've had some derplings.

'hay, snee. Wat is a server?'ffs

[Snee]

Who's bitter? Not I.

[manker]

Does she not have any personal leave time?
I want some notice for that kind of thing.

I usually let them rush off to the doctors when some accident has befallen their offspring or w.e. but I've got stuff that won't just photocopy itself.

[manker]

@ snee
Yeah they didn't have kids when I employed them. You get a year off if you have kids, if you're a woman. ffs. a year.
And when they have them, they are entitled to reduced hours and all sorts.

None of the hawt burds who work here have computer skillz, which is a good thing as if they did, they might actually be able to find out what I'm downloading and stuff :ermm:

I'll address this question to those of you who aren't unemployable doletards: what would your employer do in this situation? Is a sick child a valid reason for time off work?

It's a lose:lose for you. If you go back and forth with her and ultimately make her come in, you're the asshole. If you give her the day off for the sick kid (which is prolly bs) you've been had.

On the other hand, you can tell her what I always tell mine - If you're too sick to come to work, bring a dr's note to me when you return. That forces them to make a different decision. 1) Waste the day that they wanted off by having to go to the dr, plus the cost of the dr visit, or 2)sucking it up and getting to work. But I still have grown adults that will call in and say "I have diarrhea and I can't come in". :dabs:

As for what my employer would do? Laugh and tell me I better not be late. As a management person, it's well known that you just don't call in. Anything short of strep throat and you better be at work.

Thought of an idea for a TV show.

Gonna get four pikeys and starve them to an emaciated degree, put them in a boxing ring each attached to re-enforced elastic bands at each corner, put about six turnips in the centre of the ring, and cheer for my favourite as the hilarity ensues.

Gonna call it 'Hungry Hungry Gippos'.

2. I use weird filenames primarily for my own amusement and secondarily to see if anyone is paying attention. As for the secondary motive, Squeams is the first, you are the second (if anyone's keeping count).

Lastdayofvacationsup.

A new Formula 1 track is being built just outside the city limits here, putting it about 20 minutes from my house. I was listening to some talk radio this week where the host was mentioning the enormous markup on hotels for that week (about a 800-1000% markup from standard rates). So I went online to see what homeowners with comparable homes are renting for during the event and it's like $1200-$1900/night. :o It's a bit scary to think of a complete stranger living in my home for 3-5 days, but if it's done through one of the popular sites like HomeAway or VRBO with a sizable security deposit, then I'll feel a little better about it. Have any of you ever rented your home out for something like that?

Have any of you ever rented your home out for something like that?I reckon it's a good idea so long as you're not too entrenched within your surroundings.

The Ryder Cup was near to my home in 2010 and there was similar talk about people who were going to rent their house out for a the week.
As it approached, the prices offered fell and I think the average was around £1200 ($7.3bn) for the three days. Not all that many people who were on about it actually went to the effort.

I was never tempted, it seemed like such an effort to move everyone and everything of value out for a week and then back in again. I only know of one person who did it and she did alright out of it, too. The merkin family were decent god-tearing folk (are there any other kind) who left her house cleaner than when they arrived.

She said the agency fees were horrific - but that's to be expected, I spose.

[Something Else]

Unless you can't afford it or are living in 1980 that is.I don't think I have underpads or baseboard. Or maybe I do have baseboard because it looks like a board and it's down at the base of the room :unsure:
I'm just going to stick the carpet to that with spray glue. It surely must be very easy.

The area to be carpeted is for one of the offices downstairs in work, I bought exhibition carpet for the whole of the downstairs, the stairs themselves and the landing - and it cost £100. They just let me take as much as I wanted, so I just filled up the transit ftw. The builders laid most of it but then fucked off without laying it in a small office. I haven't paid them for doing it or anything and they seem reluctant to come back for such a small job.

I look forward to the infloor heating and hardwood when I come and lean on the balustrade outside of your log cabin or w.e

[Skiz]

The pad is pretty important actually. It keeps the carpet fibers from quickly wearing out between the foundation (or whatever base you have) and the day to day foot traffic. Not to mention the added comfort. Without that, you don't get the comfort of carpet and that kind of defeats the purpose in having it I would think. :unsure:

[manker]

Ah, I think you guise mean underlay when you say underpad.

I put the expensive carpet with underlay and grippers upstairs in my office and the meeting rooms.
The carpet downstairs will probably have to be replaced after a few years but wtf, it hardly cost anything.

The hawt burds seem happy enough with the exhibition carpet though and I've said they can come upstairs and walk on the decent stuff occasionally if they take their shoes off.

Is the language contained within your code Swedish, or is it in English? Logically it would be English, I think. So was that conversation with your co-worker conducted in English too? I assume if you're going to code, then speaking English is a big help.

Lastly, have you ever thought about completely giving up speaking Swedish?

True question. I had no idea.

I knew I never responded to this. Anyways, hopefully you remained in the dark or I just wasted 3 minutes finding this post (which I was forced to think about having uploaded a 1 MB pic).

Go to here (http://filesharingtalk.com/profile.php?do=editattachments) to see it. If yours is infinite because you're a mod then fuck you and go report yourself for fuckety fuck.

That was ridiculous.

I clicked your link and marvelled at the long list of all the attachments I've ever posted. Out of curiosity I clicked one of the oldest ones and ended up reading the 2006 version of this thread for an hour.

My mate with the scarred urethra had to get his lad out in hospital today. It was a preliminary 'frighten the fucking bejaysus out of the patient' kinda thing. I think they do it to keep down costs on the National Health. Intimidate the walking wounded so they walk the fuck somewhere else.

In his own words...

North Korea's hardline regime is punishing those who did not cry at the death of dictator Kim Jong-il, according to reports.

Sentences of at least six months in labour camps are also apparently being given to those who didn't go to the organised mourning events, while anyone who criticised the new leader Kim Jong-un is also being punished.

Those who tried to leave the country, or even made a mobile phone call out, were also being disciplined, it has been claimed.

The movie steers away from most of the really gruesome stuff but still leaves you with the impression that "soft" and "Mountain Man" are two terms not likely to ever be used in the same sentence.
Although I just apparently did.:unsure:

I just learned that Skiz has the unique ability to say please and still leave me with the impression that he wasn't trying to be polite.:mellow:

It's okay, Idol. Americans can't irony so it must have been an attempt at politeness.

[IdolEyes787]

Are you sure that you didn't mean "Americans can't be polite so it must have been an attempt at irony?"

[Snee]

Watching True Grit. The dude in the bear skin is a winnar.

See Jemimah Johnson for maybe the inspiration behind that character.

Racist.

[IdolEyes787]

Actually the French are masters at appearing to be polite but not meaning it. Maybe you were thinking of the Germans. Far as I know they have yet to apologized for either of the two World Wars or for Milli Vanilli.

Let no know what you think because from what I've read most people say the commercials totally misrepresent the movie which actually isn't that bad supposedly.
The movie still bombed spectacularly at the box office and is on target to lose over $200 million dollars.

Same with their allies, I think Pearl Harbour was a decent enough swap for robots and tentacle porn.

And also, don't think I missed your faux-pas. You just said that the French are masters of etiquette ironing, n'est ce-pas.

While revisionist history is lovely (I so enjoy a good fairytale) and history is written by the victors, the first world war was in no way the fault of the Germans, they were dragged unwillingly into the conflict by their mutual defense agreement with the Austro-Hungarian Empire.
Arch Duke Ferdinand was assassinated by Gavrilo Princip, therefore the Austro-Hungarians invaded Serbia (the had always coveted the Balkans). Then the Russians who had a pact with Serbia armed and marched to their defense, at which point Germany was dragged deeply unwillingly into the conflict by the pact with Austria-Hungary. Then the British and French declared war on the central powers and it was all on.

They should all be branded for Milli Vanilli though.

I knew that . I probably should have tried to work it into the joke.

Not to mention Kraftwerk.Without those offspring of unwilling participates in the first World War( also known as The Great War and The War to End All Wars) I might not have to suffer through that Electronic Music shite now.
Or possibly the Austrians or the Hungarians are really behind that as well.

A music vid for manker not to watch.

Well that is where the road differs for us, Kraftwerk were truly pioneers in terms of what later became 'industrial muzik' in Germany and Holland and were experimenting with analogue synthesisers long before sampling or the fairlight computer saw the light of day. Each tone was created and integrated into the whole, and they integrated different devices into the recordings and experimented pushing the edge further than anyone before. I still have my original LP copies of The Man Machine and Computer World along with works by Vangelis, Art Of Noise and of course Jean Michel Jarre.

Hair standing on end yet ?

You know sending explosives through the mail is illegal don't you?

Just saying like..... :fear:

My favorite Kraftwerk song.

Clever, Arty. Very clever.

I wish I'd thought of posting about stuff from the before time in an observational manner, so it would surreptitiously add a decade or two to my age so that Squeams would send me a pic of her bewbs also.

I think that's what I meant when I said electronic shite.:unsure:

[megabyteme]

You have to give the Germans credit for being able to express their perpetual grouchiness in as few (repetitive) words as possible. And, with 20M hits, I'd say make it cool, too.

Assuming that "no" in fact means "me" in the post above, I went ahead and wrote something in that waystation between the internet at large and the BT section where the crackheads like to post about how they've watched twilight/the hangover/some other crap, and now have no thoughts left in their heads, or something.

I could lie and say that I seem to be getting stupider at an alarming rate but truth is I've always been this stupid I just took more care to cover it up.:mellow:
Anyway good to see that you got something out of the movie and that it didn't end up a total waste of your time.

Something else I read in criticism of it and maybe you engulfed in nostalgia could look past it but it's been reported that the film suffers from being almost too literal a translation of the source material, Rice Burroughs not having the imagination of things extraterrestrial as say someone like Jules Verne.

[Snee]

Welp.

Did the low-gravity jumping seem a bit off to me? Yes. Could Mars have looked more exotic? Yes.

Otherwise, I can't say I'm much bothered by any lack of imagination in the movie. The aliens were no worse than, say, the Baku of Star Trek: Generations, or indeed most aliens in Star Trek period.

Also, they'd covered for Burroughs a bit, I thought. The original Carter is apparently an immortal to begin with, and takes trips to Mars by astral projection, iirc.

The movie skips the immortal bit, more or less, and puts him there by means of technology. The scenario may be a bit forced, but I'll take it over the original.



TBH, from what I've read about the original Barsoom novels, the problem isn't lack of imagination as much as that it reads like a teenage fantasy, complete with the alien princess strolling about in the buff.

[Snee]

Also, you're no stupid. You're just addicted to really experimental grammar.
