How to make others doubt your competence before you even start:

"Sorry, I was on Mute. Most famous 3 words in the industry these days."

I'm wondering which 3 he meant.

EDIT: "I am nekkid," on the other hand, is indeed 3 words.

[captain yesterday]

How I know the first day it gets above 80 degrees.

Coworker gets really pissed about something trivial and declares he's going home early.

Unfortunately for him, this job doubles as a gym for me.

Also, I have the truck keys.

Edit; Ha! It's only 76! I'm going to give him so much crap for getting old because of this!

When I was a kid, I was raised Catholic, and as we were in a class preparing for First Communion, the priest asked if we had any questions, and I, as an innocent child asked:

"Why does Jesus taste like a paper cup?"

The priest laughed. The nuns laughed. I never got my answer. I wasn't trying to be a smartass. It's just...anyone here who's Catholic knows those wafers taste like styrofoam.

Or like the cheapest cheapest ice cream cone wafer.

Meh. After a splendid last month's selection at Humble Choice, this month is bland, uninteresting crap.

[Drejk]

I got a nice mission - secluded plant (in region reminding me of industrial zone here in Kraków), bunch of gangsters, no civilians, can use heavy weapons without worrying about cops.

I have cleaned the area of gangsters, and almost finished dealing with the two waves of reinforcement (yes, drive a bunch of cars from the side that I can see and eliminate you en masse with granade launcher, then proceed to run upstairs into my explosive traps!) when I died to... Weird fall over (if not through) the safety railing.

Twice. In more or less the same spot.

Hey Feros, what is it like in Canada in terms of vaccine supply and organization?

Much like the US, it depends on where you live. About ten to fifteen years ago, our federal government said to itself, "We don't need to keep companies up here capable of producing mass vaccines, we can rely on the USA!" Needless to say we are now having a harder time than we should have in getting vaccine supplies. It's improved over the last few months and the situation will now be rectified for the future, but shortsighted stuff can come back and bite you in the backside when you least expect it.

The organization of vaccine appointments has been improving, but for a while there we were all in the dark, with none of the provincial governments doing a decent job of keeping the people appraised as to when they should make an appointment. They're sort of learning as they go. My province of New Brunswick is getting there, but when garbage collectors got on the vaccine list before morticians you know that there are still some miscommunication going on.

Me (on cutting pavers and such): It's not THAT hard, all it takes is repetition. You don't think I was born with a saw in my hand do you?

High Schooler #1: Yes

High Schooler #2: I was also going to say yes

Coworker: I might have told some people that.

Silly spring. Giving us a day full of hail.

It was nuts. ALL (DE) and I went for a walk around a lake (in Lancashire), and it started snowing then; when we went over the tops back to Yorkshire, there were parked cars covered in it; it really came down when we got home, but had vanished entirely when I went out for fish & chips.

She joined in on our Savage Worlds game this evening, too, which was nice.

At the last Catholic church I attended before I officially became a Protestant, we baked our own unleavened bread because the priest hated those wafers so much. We had a weekly baking rota.

I saw a thing where someone said their church had done similar-taking turns baking communion bread. One week someone made raisin bread, and the priest didn't notice until he was blessing it and said "This, apart from the raisins, is the body of Christ".

Harold turned, the lamp behind him highlighting his chiselled cheekbones and mirroring the smouldering embers in the depths of his smoky grey eyes.

"Janet", he said, in his deep, resonant, husky voice. "Janet - I WANT you"

"N'gthagn iirm n'an'an'okul'luu pthalogn!"

"Janet!" Howard's face showed clearly the rage and misery warring within him. "Janet - don't you care? Can't you see I'm dying inside because you won't have me?!"

"Ghathrgnuuuk! Tekeli-li!"

The shoggoth squelched towards the door and slowly squeezed itself through the keyhole and out into the night, never once looking back at Howard with its myriad of eye-like appendages. Howard watched her go, lips tight, a single tear glistening on his manly cheek, then went off to pen a letter to the editor of Weird Tales blaming the whole thing on the Jews.

Guy walks into a bar and orders a beer. He takes a drink and then asks the bartender "Hey, do you know anything about fruit trees?" The bartender says "No. Why?" The guy says "I don't know. My wife just told me to 'Go grow a pear', but I don't see how that has anything to do with me being too scared to kill the spider in the shower."

Today will be a race against time.

As in I'll have to hurry to get my sun installed before it starts raining.

Unfortunately I'll also have to deal with obstacles like coworker deciding we have to race to get some other less important task before it starts raining or some a&%$%*~ yelling at a different a&$%@$& with my first name (I met the roofers yesterday, they are definitely a*@#~++s).

So it should be a fun day, in a NOT sort of way.

First off, I prefer to read romance. My imagination is much hotter than what the animators come up with.

Secondly, I specified "romance", and there isn't much romance on the 'Hub.

I must admit, I am intrigued by this love triangle of Harold, Howard, and Janet.

Also, I find it humorous that Chrome accepts "yote" as a valid word, but not "smouldering" or "chiselled". I guess it doesn't much cotton ta th' metric spellin'.
