Spent half of the day writing a css style, which always looked different among IE5.5, 6,7.
But when I finally made it look correct, I tried it in IE8, wtf, it changed again. :x

Writing for IE is... ugh.  I always feel like buying people beers when they tell me they're having to do something along the lines of writing for IE.

Trolls, spineless twerps, disorganized organizations, and having an MRE for dinner after skipping breakfast and lunch.

[. . .] and having an MRE for dinner after skipping breakfast and lunch.

OUCH.  That does suck.  Haha, and the hunger still didn't make it taste better?

Smoking pot would probably make it taste better, haha. Or at least it may make you THINK it tastes better. But seeing as you're obviously eating MRE's against your will, I'd say weed is not an option.

Try beer. If possible.

One and the same thing. But I'd advise against it anyhow. Not only would it increase your hunger and appetite but it would probably make you crave delicious ice cream sandwiches, and then you'd be stuck with the MRE's instead. That would be worse torture than skipping breakfast and lunch.

Kind of funny yet sad in a way that everywhere I go there's someone talking about pot or weed.  Never expected it to be a constant on here either.

yeah, because you would never expect hardcore gamers to smoke pot. *rolls eyes*

Maybe I'm off in this characterization, but I get the impression that the people on this forum aren't the kinds of gamers who regularly get stoned and play Halo for hours on end.

To stay on topic:  I haven't read my supervisor's yearly review yet, and I'm a little nervous about it.  I have to meet with him tomorrow to discuss it, too.  Also, I really need to get the hell out of town for a while and go camping...

- I didn't expect it to be talked about like it's an amazing thing to do.

The people that do smoke pot speak of it like it's an amazing thing to do. Those who do not smoke it, do not speak praise for it. I think I'm in your boat here.
And I'd be proud to be a hardcore gamer in Kebber's area :D

Other frustrations... ate a burrito too quickly. Feels like there's a brick in my chest. Yay!

Mara-JU-ana is bad, Mmkay.


Edit:  I have smoked pot before, for almost a full year in high school.  Quit cold turkey one day, tried it again half a year ago and got sick.

So yeah, it's not that amazing a thing to do.

Yes! Like Seroquel!

Oh my god, I'm going to kill people slowly and painfully. Like this douche sitting next to me, calling me a dude. It's fucking ridiculous how angry I am right now.

Today we took the first part of the Massachusetts Comprehensive Assesment System, or MCAS. All public schools in Massachusetts MUST take the MCAS. If you do not pass the MCAS, you will not graduate any public school in Massachusetts. I needed to write a long composition essay thing on pride. So I'm sitting with my number 2 pencil, trying to write a decent paper, and I'm about to rip my hair out. You see, the people were being LOUD. They were laughing. They were talking. They were gossiping. They were discussing their papers. The teachers told them to shut up, but they didn't. I had to leave.

Worst excuse for a standardized test.

EVER.
