Sorting junk mail. Found “go green” renewal offer from gym that I canceled YEARS ago. They used to just spam me, now it’s paper. GREEN FAIL.

A good tech support one-liner from (The customer is) Not Always Right: A Flock Of Explorers On A Safari Singing Opera.
Me: “Alright, so what browser are you using to view your websites?”
Customer: “Mozzarella Firefox!”
Morning
Morning: The time of day when you can set up coffee but forget to turn it on, or walk past a mailbox with a Netflix envelope in your hands.
Teh Internets Wait
This seriously (srsly?) needs to be a lolcat caption.
Spam subject of the day here! “Teh internets wait”
The Thirteenth
It’s not off to a great start, but heres hoping today is less frustrating than yesterday.
Was hoping for more than 30% chance of rain, esp. the way TV news was going on last night w/LIVE DOPPLER 2000! Where’s that “Weird Al” Yankovic vid?
Appropriate. Today’s Word of the Day is triskaidekaphobia.
Slowest Patch Tuesday update ever. Of course that’s partly because Norton decided to run a full scan DURING the update.
Patches did eventually finish, but it took >1.5 hours to install them. Usually if I start it before lunch, it’s done when I get back.
Someone searching for “old photos of shoreline village long beach” hit this photo…taken last week. Oops.
Frustrations (And a Few Bright Spots)
- Hard disks should not sound like buzz saws.
- Slashdot article “FOSS Sexism Claims Met With Ire & Denial”…gets met with ire & denial. *headdesk*
- Listening to lightsaber sounds from across the office. I think my coworker w/ the new Android phone found an app for that.
- Vertical Horizon’s Burning the Days is growing on me, but I think Vienna Teng‘s Inland Territory is my favorite new album this year
Optimus Prime(s)
Realized why the Japanese name for Optimus Prime bugs me: “Convoy” implies more than one vehicle. Maybe it’s a translation issue?
