The poop factor makes it funny...
A select few of the better things I've been called in the preceding 24 hours:
-Shithead (this was by far the most popular)
-Manipulative
-Craptacular
-Sphincterboy
-Asshole
-Unoriginal
-Fuckwit moron (my personal favourite)
-Just plain moron
Ahh, things may just get back to normal yet...
In other news, Google's annual April first gag was somewhat clever. Compgeeks (geeks.com) also sent out this e-mail, which was nicely done visually, but too obvious. Those were pretty much the only April first scams I was aware of. Apparently not a great year for them.
Now Playing: New Order - 1963 ('95 mix)
Sounds like Rusty's getting his wings...it would be cool to go flying with him...it's been probably ten years since I've been in one of those little deathtrap-feeling little single-engine planes.
Got a call from the Apple store this morning, somehow, they managed to ship my computer to Texas, fix it, and ship it back, all in the span of three days. Incredible. Now if only the rest of the goddamned service industry world could get behind these kinds of turnaround times! The new screen looks dreamy, I'm thrilled to death with the serivce. All except for one miniscule anal little thing. It appears that along with the screen, they replaced the inner bezel. Which would be absolutely fine, except for the fact the the "new" bezel they slapped on seems to have the older "PowerBook G4" script along the bottom of the screen. Minor and cosmetic, to be sure, but goddamnit, now it looks like an older model than it is. Crap. Guess I'll have to call Applecare and see if I can play the "squeaky wheel" role and get that corrected. Grr, one more thing to do.
Did the Friday night club thing, gave a few tours, met some new people, no one noteworthy other than V, someone I knew of through a mutual (albeit crazy) friend, apparently she and I have been going to the club for a while, both had heard of of one another through this mutual acquaintance, and just never met. Well, we finally did tonight, and seem to have made mutually favorable impressions. She seems fun, we'll see how that works out in the future.
I can't decide whether or not these are fake. (Warning, potentially icky.)
My GOD, what the HELL has former hottie Keira Knightley done to her hair?! "Bi" is good, "dyke" is bad! Tell me she doesn't look a billion times better with her old hair?! OK< I guess those are bad examples, since it's tied up, but you know what I mean...look at those abs!
Need to finish up the last couple little things with Laura's shipment, get it packed and properly boxed up, and get it shipped out to her. Really need to give blood and buckle down and do taxes this week too. Oh well, maybe on Tuesday...

How ironic that the prevalent theme for the names you've been called involves the very part of your body I've been considering for your punishment...what do you think, "D" ?
"L"

How amazing, "L"! My thoughts were right along the same lines! Since you'll probably see him before I do, do me a favor and tear it up a time or two for me.
Oh no! My two favorite girlfriends have somehow, inexplicably and coincidentally come together in one forum to plot against me! Whatever will I do?! Oh, the horror! The humanity! (Just tell me where and when to meet you guys...)
