Ryan: It’s weird to think that everyone, at some point, says their last words, a final statement they put out into the universe.
Me: I have a feeling that whether I die from old age, sickness, an accident or even by my own hand, the last thing I’m going to say in this world is, “I didn’t sign up for this.”
Ryan: True dat.

OMFG, dial up makes me want to scream. It’s taking forever to check my email…which is already out of control, and I’ve only been gone for a few days - it’s full of articles and columns people want me to edit for them, and I can’t open the attachments, because I’m on dial up. I apologize in advance to anyone that wanted me to proof their stuff. You’re...

Y’all need to watch, as my cousin @jlife is part of the build team.
Also, if you could pimp this a ton, I’d appreciate it. And if you don’t, I’ll start posting nudes until you do.

I know a few people that think this way. I think they’re complete assholes. How anyone cannot be moved by the suffering of their fellow man eludes me.
My first final is in 8 hours, and I am so jangled up, I can’t sleep.
It’s English, so I’ll be fine. Assuming I remember that while it’s fine for me to say ‘fuck’ three times every sentence here, it’s not okay when I’m being marked.
It’s 4am, and I am going to bed, at last.
I’m pretty sure my shoes are ruined. I got puked on.
I need friends my own age, cause these kids can’t hold their liquor, and I am so very fucking tired of being the mother hen.
Why is everyone fighting? If I am funny, will it...

At this point, the clown wig may do more harm than good. You may need to break out the tiny car.

Our Library is Weird
funsizebytes:
As I said, I’m at the library, researching whether I could use ssh tunnels to subvert their filtering software (called WatchGuard), which blocks, among other things, Twitter:
Answer: no, because they also have managed to terminate SSH/SCP connections (I believe they also block VPN). FTP is allowed.
They had previously blocked BoingBoing but it is now available.

Today, I called the mentoring agency.
shoesonwrong:
And as soon as I said the words, “He doesn’t live at the address you gave me,” My agency case worker (liason? person who sets stuff up and does stuff?) said, “That is unacceptable. Where do they live?” I told her, and she was aghast, saying she would never have placed me with a kid that far away because it’s just not feasible and doesn’t facilitate a good mentoring situation. I...
GODDAMN, IT IS 5:30! WHY ARE YOU HAVING SEX IN THE LAUNDRY ROOM? AGAIN!
Fuck, I hate my neighbours. Also, I’m googling laundromats in the area, otherwise I will not have clean undies for tomorrow*.
*Well, I will have clean undies, but they’re the ‘do-me-on-the-first-date-party-panties’, and aren’t really designed for wear on ‘Clean The Apartment...
