Someone asked our English teacher about how long should a paragraph be. He said "It should be long enough to cover the subject, but short enough to make it interesting".
Just observing here, but there seems to be a disproportionate amount of starred/standard commenters in whitenoise. Not that I'm complaining; the comment quality is amazing. Its like there really are rational, enjoyable people on the internet. I need to visit here more often.
Hokay heres a little jokes for the whitenoise crowd.
A man walks into a bar hoping to get lucky, he approaches numerous ladies but is turned down each time due to his lack of good looks and non-existant charm. Eventually, he gets rather despondant and ends up drinking alone at the bar. To his surprise, a cougar walks up to him, buys him a drink and they start chatting. Before you know it they're in the bathroom sucking face.
"Oh yeah, I'm a lucky man tonight" he says, the cougar replies "It's only about to get better, have you ever been lucky enough to spend the night with a mother and her daughter at the same time?"
He gets so excited he barely manages to stutter "n..n..no! but... let's do it!". They head back to the cougar's place, she unlocks the door, turns on the lights and walks up the stairs before yelling... "MOM! ARE YOU STILL AWAKE?!"
You know, I've noticed more and more that people keep taking the internet too seriously. They treat it like its part of some sort of business, and that people aren't allowed to express individuality and some form of human emotion.
Then again, Its usually anything that Diaz tends to write. But I love the guy, personally. I think hes bloody hilarious.
People just need to get a sense of humor. Either that, or remember that they're on the internet, and that their opinion matters even less than it would in the real world.
That last statement just invalidated my entire rant.
Food police can go to hell. I want to be able to make popcorn at work. Has anyone ever actually met someone that is allergic to popcorn fumes? Anyone else' workplace have this rule?
I can't openly flaunt this by popping popcorn, as it is a rule in our employee handbook that we cannot pop popcorn at work. I rather like having money right now. Peanut butter is also frowned upon at my work, though not outright forbidden.
@Ruthless if you let me: I love the smell of popcorn at work, I hate the smell of curry or fish. Please don't take to work last nights fish meal and put it in the microwave for everyone to smell.
@Ruthless if you let me: Well, they like my cooking at work, so I must be doing something right... But then again, most of my coworkers aren't too fussy about food. It helps to work at an all male environment too, I guess.
Yes, Food Police sucks worse than Foodies who insist they take picture of everything damn thing they eat.
@Shamoononon: We also had an email on that. Apparently people were getting nauseous after someone else reheated their fish based meal. I think they reheated fish soup.
I was talking with Matt and he wanted to know the exact meaning of Darth Vader's famous words: "The ability to destroy a planet is insignificant next to the power of the Force." That's why I made this chart.
