Are you KIDDING ME ?! With the EREWHON turn waiting for me at home ?

I'm just taking a 2 minutes break every now and then to prevent my brain from melting, that's all. These forums are the perfect thing for that. Now I have to find out if Trip' has found a way to nuke me through my bomb shelter

Fully Expanded Rollout Cost report - MAJOR ****, man, I'm telling you... This sucker must be ready tomorrow morning at 0730 latest, the project manager must do verification & testing, and migration to the sites is Monday...

Every now and then, it *really* sucks to be a programmer (thank God the money's good - at least there's some compensation)

Oops, I thought this was about the Pirates remake.

Gee, all I have to do is roll outta bed go to work and SMAC, forum browse, d/l pictures of Italian lingerie models (need to get a bigger HD now!) take some customers money, nod and smile occasionally, go home kiss the wife hug the kids, SMAc, forum browse, wait for the wife to go to bed and d/l more pictures (need a bigger HD at home too!) Of course, the pay sucks and I'm so broke, can't even pay attention. Oh well. Life goes on and it's good.

"It really sucks to be a programmer" What are you, the Monica Lewinsky of programmer's. Programming is a cushy job, you sit down at a computer all day and pretend to work. I guess you just have whiplash from your head going up and down so much on the bosses lap.

A red H ran. What kinds ****ing name is "a red H ran?" That has to be the stupidest name I've ever heard. I don't give a **** on what letter of the alphabet decides to run. Nor do I care what its ****ing color is. Obviously we have some idiots in this world who do. Tell tell kindergarteners' that kinda bull**** stuff when you are trying to teach them the alphabet. Obviously, as we can see, that is as far as you've gotten in school.

Botching about **** which is your fault. Your bitching because your program's buggy. Well if you didn't do such a piss poor job on the program, it wouldn't have to be so damn debugged. Who do you work for, Activision or something? It's just a damn report, how can a ****ing report have bugs??? The numbers add up, well they damn well should have at 4:30. But then again, your boss put Mr. A red H ran on the job. So it must not be that important. Probably an algorith to see how much water a toilet uses when it flushes. Some useless bull**** like that to keep the morons happy. Do they have some type of affirmitive action for the stupid over in switzerland? How did you get a job programming if you can't even write a damn report with numbers that, oh my God, add up <huge gasp>. Or is your boss a moron as well for hiring someone so incompentent. We have a name for people like you here in the states. They are called retarded. If they are old, they get graced with senile. Well you can't be to old... I would say kindergarten, since your name is "a red H ran," but i don't think they have that bad of a population shortage anywhere in the world to need to hiring little kids, stupid little kids at that. So I'm going to have to call you senile.

The product manager needs it early so he can test it? Hello moron. That means he already knows you can't program worth a ****, so he is having pity on you. He offered to fix your bugs if you got him the report on time, which you could have done by leaving work on time, or are you to dumb to make even a buggy report in that time to leave. I guess your incompetent ass didn't realize that he needed to test and verify it so early because he knew you would have so many bugs in it. He probably doesn't need to present the report until late next week. Just he figured it would take that long to figure out your ****ty programming. So he told you he needed it then.

Oh yeah, and on another thing, "a red H ran." You need not worry about radiation. Most simple lifeforms aren't really bothered by it. Like cockroaches. You are descended from them, right? So you need not worry about the radiation. You need to worry about the can of bug spray I have in my hand though.

trip,

Walk to refrigerator and pour youself a nice, cold glass of water. Now, go to the medicine cabinet and get your pills. Take them, please. Also, tonight get a good night's sleep. You're sounding a little tense and we don't want to be in the same snotty mood tomorrow, do we? What are you still doing sitting there? Get moving or I'll paddle your butt and send you to bed without any dinner.

<wipes tears of laughter from eyes>

Hi Trip,

I have to admit, that was - by far - the *BEST* flame I have ever received...

I am pleased to say that it was completely ineffective, though, thanks to that wonderful Mk4... I must say, I'm quite impressed by the quality of this piece of equimement. I'll have to write a letter to ACME Corp. to commend them on their excellent design.

Anyway, as you can see, I'm completely unscathed. Fresh as a rose. I couldn't say the same thing about all the other people on this forum, who are twitching and glowing and turning to green slime from the fallout of your nuclear flame.

Thanks for the laughs, I really needed them last night.

Aredhran


PS: For the record,
- I didn't write the program originally, I was *debugging* it
- My boss is a She, it's *her* head that goes up&down
- Reports can get really complicated. This sucker uses a double-recursion routine and temporary tables to drill down a bill of materials structure and calculate the relative costs at each level. Nasty. (sorry about the techno-speak)

PPS: Do you mind if I get out of that bomb shelter now ? I hate not to have a window to see the day dawn when I'm playing SMAC

Your welcome Aredhran. Oh well. At least I got somebody on this forum glowing from the radiation released by my flame. I just had to flame somebody, and well... Olive, Opale. You just happened to appear at the right time. Thanks for taking all of this as a joke, their are quiet a few on this forum who I would still be flaming with. You can come out of your bomb shelter, just be careful, radiation can stick around for centuries, so if you start glowing, don't say I didn't warn ya.

Go ahead. If you can get Trippin... I just about got electrified last night by a VERY NEARBY lightning strike. I had so much static left in me, that I crashed my work computer today three times. Micron Pieces of Sh*t! My home system is shielded very well...

Wait? Hold on? What the ****?!?!? I am for sale now or something? When did this come up? I'm not even a business. I haven't advertised. Did you see:

If you want them dead,
I'll flame them on their deathbed,
call me,
the call is free,
I'll flame them down to ash,
all I need is a little cash.

I don't think so. I never said I was for sale. I feel cheap and used. How could somebody desire to use me just for my talents.

Ok, enough of the bull****. I don't flame unless I am given a reason to (or somebody asks me nicely). If you must reach me for any of your flaming needs, just leave a post, and I'll get back to you.

Hey trip, maybe you can sell your flaming services to people to make some extra cash. I know I could use it. I tried awhile back to get on someone and in the end all i ended up doing was apoligize for my stupidity. You need to start classes on this. I would pay.(

Nell/Jamiam: TD needs to take fewer pills, not more. Fewer. Less. Not so many. Put the medication down, TD, go have a couple of nice, relaxing triple shot espressos. That'll feel better, now.

Yeah, I could offer classes, I don't know it all, like I haven't mastered the art of philosophical flaming like Mike H II has, but I know the juvenile and the stuff inbetween. I wonder if I could make money. Probably not. I only flame for the fun of it, or if somebody is saying some really stupid stuff and deserves it. Like when I flamed Mr. A red H ran, that was done as a friendly gesture. We both knew it was going to happen.. he told me I was a rock, then a fruit, or is it a vegetable? So in a juvenile gesture I'll say "he started it!"
Old_Warrior, don't be ashamed of a failed flame, just remember that next time you need to use more gas. It's a learning experience. Your a newbie to flaming, in time, you shall, if you so desire, master this fine art. It is great fun. Now I just need to get rid of A red H ran's Mk4 suit.

Well Shining, I am sad to report that my doctor (damn bitch) has taken me off of all the good medicines. I must now seek "alternative" medicines for my pain. That also means that I may be in a really pissy mood as I go through withdrawals for all the fun drugs I'm on... morphine, butalbital (that one really sucks), and codeine. I also can't have caffine, that makes the migraines rage, and with no real medicine (well i got some other stuff, but it doesn't make me feel good, its SUPPOSED to get rid of the migraine, but it doesn't do a good job sometimes), I'm not going to take that chance. If I want to have 3 shots of anything, its either absolut, or everclear. Unfortunately I can't drink anymore either. I'm running out of ways to get rid of my pain and be incredibly happy at the same time. So as of tonight, trippin daily isn't trippin legally, but he's still a trippin.

Actually I probably wont get the hang of it. Its not me. I knew yours at aredhan was a joke though because I think I have read every thread on this forum for the past 100 days looking for info and I think I see you 2 guys common humor. Thanks for the encouragement, though I will try to refrain from playing with fire. I set myself on fire once(longago when I was drunk) and it really hurts. Needless to say that was the last drinkI ever had. Tom riding the old wagontrain.

OldWarrior... I haven't set myself on fire, but I have charbroiled my hands. Thank God I play bass guitar, if not, that would have been soft tissue burning away, not callouses. I decided to wave my hand over a tiki torch, and well i quit waving them and just left them there. I didn't know I burnt myself until I woke up the next morning and my hands were black and a lil sore. Ahhh, The wonders of alcohol.

Shiny: "Debugging someone else's work? Now that does sound bad... "
Not only does it *sound* bad, it *is* bad. As a matter of fact, it is *WORSE*. But the sucker is working as it should now, just passed QA this morning, YYYYYES !

Trip: It was *first* an Olive (yes, it's a fruit), and *then* a stone. I might add that an opale is a gemstone, quite precious and beautiful actually... So I assume your little over-reacting flame above is due to some allergy that you have to minerals.

Now, come to think of it, I realize now that is why you turned red... I thought it was anger, or maybe the heat from the flames, but it's some kind of eczema. I'm really sorry man, I did not realize a mere piece of rock could make you sick like that. I won't do it again, promise...

Nell: Actually, I'm not Dilbert, I'm the highly paid contractor

Nell, I have to <vomiting> agree with "a reed ran's" statement. He is the high paid contractor. Isn't the contractor a moron? Isn't "r ed ran" a complete idiot as well. The contractor also seems like a sweaty, hairy, hemroidial asshole. So does, you guessed it "a redder an." This is just matching up so good.

-you gotta come outta that suit sometime r another, or else it could get messy in there, so I'm gonna keep the flame on, since you seem to have forgotten to turns off. -

I always knew you were taking anything you do take in 3-shots pack.
Since according to OED "several" means "more than two"

I now regret you held your flame in that "several" argument inside Mother's "tech tree help" topic!

btw, did you ever get to read my reply there b4 the last forum wipe? Now the topic is back, but it's hopelessly truncated!

C'mon, admit you usually have FLAMINGos for breakfast! Not the dull pink ones, mind, but a rare red hot californian breed.

Nah not a site like you mean ... FreeDrive is a place where you can upload tons of stuff for other people to d/load, and I happen to be keeping a few of my favourite MP3s on mine... but unless you like European rave/techno music, you probably wouldn't find it very interesting!

Mind you, that leads me to wonder... which one of us is the pointy-haired boss... and Catbert... and Bob the Dinosaur... and what about the heroic Ratbert!!!!! hehehe I can think of several candidates for that one... starting with me
