This I think I am posting for the benifit of the few ([livejournal.com profile] dr_tectonic, katchya and maybe a few others.)

This is just pure comedy gold.

Pottery Barn is early. Ugh. But it was good times recieving shipment and listening to old Beastie Boys and AC/DC.

Must learn me some C# today.

Also A Softer World was creepy today.

That is kind of creepy.

Funny! I especially like "Trying to remember who is under the napkin just felt like work to me."

Um, looking at it, isn't A Softer World creepy EVERYday?

And you should not learn C#, it is ick-ptoo! Learn perl or tcl. Or better yet, python, then teach it to me.

I thought you might enjoy it, you and kate were immediately came to mind when I read it.

creepy-ish maybe. but a lot of the times more with the funny kind of creepy. Mostly I attribute the uber creepy to the pic of the shrub in the last panel.

I think C# is the most marketable (for someone who is me anyway.) And as it is more complex than VB I will prolly work backwards and get to PERL as I learn me some more... I am kind of use to the verbose method of programming. What's tcl.

I also want to learn cocoa so I can write apps for my own operating system.

I don't know cocoa, but I gather it's about many-many times better than java/c# because it's more smalltalky, so that's good.

Perl/tcl/python are the Big 3 high-level scripting/programming languages. Maybe not suitable for building 3D FPS games or MS-Word due to scalability, but man do they rock for smaller programs.

I found this recently. [livejournal.com profile] kisken was excited for it too. It was everything that I wanted in the library app I was trying to develop for myself at one time but even better, and of course: for the Mac.

That was pretty funny. Strange I'd never thought "Airplane" was a game so much as a marketing device. But, the idea of "Mirror, Mirror" being essentially "multiplayer solitaire," well, pure comedy gold. I'm looking forward to the "piggies" exapansion....

Oh. I just realised you work next door to Banana Republic, where the most insane boyfriend I've ever had works. At least, he was still there when I moved to California. He may have been fired by now for being the raging alcoholic psychopath he is.

(For example: He asked me to carve my initials into his back with a box-knife, kicked me out of his apartment when I said 'no', then, before I left, threatened to kill himself if I left.) (Also, during the VMs, I left his apartment for rehearsal and, when I returned a few hours later, he had shaved his head. With a razor. There was no hair left at all. From a shoulder-length head of hair.) (I used to get drunken suicide messages in which he was slurring so badly it sounded like he HAD taken a bottle of something.)

And that's not even the half of it.

*sigh*

I'll need a name: I could be processing shipment for Banana if they are ever short handed and I don't want some crazy dude coming at with a box knife or those pointy parts from the security tags. Or a swiss army pony, those things are almost as dangerous as a Fatal Dingo Attack!

Okay. But only if you promise an immediate Fatal Dingo Attack should he begin to look as though he might lose his grip upon reality...

AH! He is short and has glasses? Does he perhaps have a sort of outgoing magnetic charm like a good car salesman or perhaps a serial killer? If so he is the man I dropped off my application with originally: HE KNOWS WHERE I LIVE! The phone calls will start coming from inside my house!

*flees screaming*

Correct-a-mundo!
His appeal is this:
He's extremely well-groomed and oddly charming.
At least, he's oddly charming at first.
After a few weeks, he whips out ALL the crazy and you're so overwhelmed you don't know what hit you.

Oh, man. He's BEYOND insane.

Oh I am afraid now!
