I think first I need to come up with some schmoozy singer-songwriter material that I can play solo, just me and my classy black guitar. I should wear an argyle vest and a bowler hat.

ATTENTION: Leslie passed the bar. This means that my bar results should be at my house, right now, unless the Chicago postal service decided to throw them into the river. Unfortunately, I will not be home until 8 pm.
I'm going to spend the rest of my work day vomiting in terror, I think.

grep is a command line utility that was originally written for use with the Unix operating system. Given a list of files or standard input to read, grep searches for lines of text that match one or many regular expressions, and outputs only the matching lines.

Everyone point and laugh.
Well since you didn't seem to know which version of Word your .docx had been created with, it seemed a logical course of action.
Also, as far as "biggest" nerds go: I ain't in the same ballpark, the same league, or even the same fuckin' sport as the true nerds. You should talk to matttttttttttt sometime.

Jenny, If I were you, I would suddenly come down with something and go home and check the mail NOW. (or maybe, like you said, you'll get sick with not knowing anyway) xposts - oh, ok :-)
I took a hammer to my old secret locked box the other day when we were cleaning out a closet because I had lost the key. GUESS WHAT?! It was just a bunch of crap. I threw almost every last bit of it away. (A dead butterfly? ewwww)
I'm not stressin' about my coworker's comments. I just needed to laugh it off with yous guys. Also, I just found out a few minutes ago that my boss will be out starting now and won't be back until the 15th. YAY!

Amanda, I think I was fairly clear: my whole convo on thread is about comments from STRANGERS, not from anyone I know and like already. With that in mind, yes, that is how I feel.

I complemented a stranger on his lowrider BMW 2002 the other night. Normally it's not the kind of thing I go out of my way to do but I was passing him on my bike and it was a really cool car, so what the hell.

Elgin Baylor was a basketball player, ne c'est pas?

Do you ever do that thing where you see a stranger who, for example, is wearing the same shirt as you so you say "Hey nice shirt uh huh huh"? That's pretty dumb but kind of unavoidable.
― n/a, Wednesday, 3 October 2007 18:55 (sixteen years ago) link
I'd never heard of him, but according to Wikipedia "Elgin Baylor was born in 1934 in Washington, D.C., and was named for his father's favorite watch."

I am so classy I never see anyone wearing what I wear.
At least that's what I tell myself, when in reality I wear what I can tolerate and fit over my ridic shoulders.
