I am so bored that I just spent an hour reading a dissertation about the legality of verse 2 of Jay Z's 99 problems.

[kenneycb]

I'm so bored I took a 4 beer lunch with one of my superiors. Next couple hours are going to be fun.

[FL4WL3SS]

I'm so bored I just read a thread in the gardening forum.

[TheStoryofYourRedRightAnkle]

Gardening is exciting. It's literally watching the grass grow! You learn lots of stuff like, for instance, I didn't know that the forest spirit made the flowers grow.

[Dropkick Izzy]

I find watering the lawn and flowers (handheld sprayer) to be relaxing. Of course a beer and and a J help, but nonetheless.

[TheStoryofYourRedRightAnkle]

I like crotching tomatoes.

[kenneycb]

God interns suck so much. And not in the Monica Lewinsky way. Their eagerness and desire to impress with their eagerness is just annoying as hell.

[kenneycb]

I like crotching tomatoes.

I like crotching your mom.

[TheStoryofYourRedRightAnkle]

You won't after the tests come back.

[kenneycb]

You gotta stop spaying her with those illegal pesticides.

[Dropkick Izzy]

But that allows us to run train on her with no threat of paternal repercussions.

Up with pesticides, I say!

Had dinner and drinks in the same bar as KPD.

I feel ashamed.

[MiracleOfO2704]

How did the fat chick entourage around him look? Any keepers in the herd group?

[kenneycb]

They were all properly branded, sadly.

[AMcGhie]

[PedroSpecialK]

That is superb

[Spaulding Smails]

Absolutely fantastic.

[Haunted]

Should I recognize anyone in that picture?

[Nomar813]

It's Doctor Krieger and his realistic holographic girlfriend. Spend the lockout catching up on Archer.

[Haunted]

Meh

[Jed Zeppelin]

Fucking lockout. Makes me even more pissed off that I'm currently panicking about a clerical error resulting in my loan payment for next month appearing to be $150 more than it should.

[Blacken]

Meh

You are an objectively terrible human being.

[kenneycb]

Better than objectively being a ginger.

[kenneycb]

Bruibs championship video in NHLN now.

[Blacken]

Better than objectively being a ginger.

That's the thing: it's really not.

It's that bad.

[PedroSpecialK]

Ehhh I'll have to go with Ken here. It is.

Leahy - Mowers - Chistov

Alberts - Corvo
Rivers - York
Morrisonn - Moran

Grahame

[Dummy Hoy]

Alberts wasn't that bad.

Rest of the list is spot on.

I had the pleasure of watching this beauty of a game from the front row:

The Boston Bruins ended their losing streak in a strange way.
Ivan Novoseltsev and Viktor Kozlov each scored with less than a minute to play as the Florida Panthers escaped with a 3-3 tie against the Bruins on Saturday night.

Boston appeared to have the game won until Shaone Morrisonn was given a double minor for high sticking with 4:03 remaining, leading to Kozlov's score with 51.3 seconds to play. With Florida's goaltender pulled for an extra skater, Olli Jokinen tried a wraparound shot that goaltender John Grahame made a pad save on. But Novoseltsev poked the puck in for the tying score with 1.4 seconds to play.

[PedroSpecialK]

I was at that game in the balcony. Brutal.

Agreed DH, maybe flip him for Jarno Kultanen or Bobby Allen.

[Spaulding Smails]

I had the pleasure of watching this beauty of a game from the front row:

Attendance: 13,208. They were actually 19-9-1 at that point too, no one gave a shit back then.

I was lucky enough to watch this gem from 2006, the least they could have done was dress Slegr if only to view that glorious turtleneck. That team fucking sucked.

OH MY GOD STOP LECTURING ME ABOUT THE "NEW" KEYWORD IN C#. I'M NOT INTERESTED IN WORKING FOR YOUR COMPANY IF I HAVE TO MEMORIZE THE ENTIRE MSDN DOCUMENTATION.

(un tech speak'ed: Stop lecturing me on the rules regarding the boards in the arena. If I'm going to be a scout, I should care about the players on the ice, not the .01% chance that they might have the wrong idea about whether they can use their hands to brush pucks off the boards)

[Blacken]

Object creation behavior in .NET is not nearly as straightforward as most people think and there are a ton of perf-related gotchas to it, so a lecture is probably appropriate if they think you don't canoe it already.


Or you can come work here. Also, apparently we never gave PSK a call back, so we have taste, too.

[kenneycb]

That's just racist.

[FL4WL3SS]

Where is 'here'?

[PedroSpecialK]

Where is 'here'?

A mythical, angrier Ireland

[FL4WL3SS]

CORNBEEF AND CABBAGE

[Dummy Hoy]

Friend asked me to play for his men's league team tonight. They're playing a team called "The Jerks." I'm wondering if I should fear for my safety or if they'll just be rude. Thoughts?

There's nothing mythical about my basement.

Shouldn't that make you want to play? I'm always down for a good ol' donnybrook.

In other words, stop being a vagina.

[kenneycb]

Fuck that. I play men's league now to get a good workout, get rid of some of my pent up competitiveness and, most importantly, go into work the next day without any noticeable scars or injuries. It's not worth it to be fighting some men's league all-star fuckface that still thinks the scouts are in the stands or that he's playing for some greater cause other than personal pride and whatnot.

But...my pretty face?

[FL4WL3SS]

But...my pretty face?

Good point.

[TheShynessClinic]

I've decided that being unemployed was way more fun than actually working.

Now when I drink beer before 2pm it's to prevent freaking out, not just because I can.

[Over Guapo Grande]

For me it is both. Except replace 2PM with 11AM.

In unrelated news, my productivity has apparently dipped in the past few months...

I see what you did there...

There are tons of little tiny quirks all over the .NET framework. Using the new keyword to redefine an object or method in a derived class(but only when referring to the created object as the derived class directly) is one of them. I got lectured because I've never studied compiler design and I don't know what the new keyword does behind the scenes in the assembly. If I really cared about that, I'd be a C developer, not a C# developer. I chose C# because it lets me not concentrate on a lot of the memory/resource management crap. I'd much rather implement IDisposable and use a using{} block than worry about allocating and deallocating manually EVERY TIME.

[FL4WL3SS]

Allocate this, bitch.
