Tech support guys are going to upgrade me to Office 2007. Good or bad? I don't know.
How the hell did Venice get "flooded" and why are the taxi boat services suspended? doh?
Oldest LOLcat found! circa 1905. http://tinyurl.com/5eexkz
I *want* to like TextMate but... I don't. Vim is forever!
World, get real: gather stats on how many people click your "skip intro" button. Now wake up and remove your stupid Flash intro altogether.
"Our staff of highly trained monkeys will cater to your every need". Yeah, sure.
Also it'd be a real timesaver if they didn't insist on braindead report formats where I have to inch every element into place... on Word!
I actually make progress on my programming project when I DON'T get interrupted every 5 minutes with administrative details. Managers suck.
@El_Chaco_Veloz Valeris! how true! They kicked her out of the fleet and she turned into such a slut!
Further evidence that those guys are completely out of touch with reality: they asked me for our servers' combined teraFLOPS capacity.
Using excel for gantt charts is like driving nails with a piece of wet bread. I wonder who thought of this standard for our project reports.
"sex and the city actress poses semi-naked". Why did I know, the moment I read the headline, that it was Kim Cattrall who did it?
How do they expect us to advance our projects if we're also asked to waste half the day generating project status reports?
The whole point of having such a big-ass screen is so I can have my browser NOT take up the entire screen!
As long as the dumbasses at CAC have anything to say about computing infrastructure in the university, we're pretty much doomed.
@hahlo as long as you're looking into VPS hosting, take a look at linode.com.
So much good, classic cinema, I don't know why we bother with all the new crap out of Hollywood!
twitting from the iphone without hahlo not so good akshually
I hate fridays.
This guy calls his secretary who then calls my office where the call gets put through to me. The guy has my cell phone number. What gives?
"devertebrated pumpkin". Type it, it's fun!
Argh! Which genius at Google came up with themes for Gmail? One of the cleanest webmail apps is on its way to becoming another Hotmail!
I hate software that doesn't create a new file when I specify a nonexistent filename.
DAMN! I want to use HAML in a project but I don't have any!
Ate too much bread yesterday, stomach is still processing it.
Freshly baked loaf of white bread expected to come out of the oven in 2:29 hours. Yum! sadly I'll still be at work when that happens.
Adding users. Would have taken less time doing it by hand but no, I had to program a script to do it for me. Time savings fail.
the big bang theory: didn't pass QC. Is now being zorched from our apple tv.
writing in all CAPS. I'm ashamed of myself; CAPS LOCK is evil.
OK, dumb users plus IIS = the perfect storm. It'll be a better world if (ever) IIS disappears.
@adrianpike Credit for the mssql / butt plug comparison goes to the folks at bash.org. Veritable repository of internet wisdom.
Test process akin to manually adjusting valve timing WHILE driving the car. They'd flip if they discovered Selenium for automated testing.
mssql is to linux what a butt plug is to the straight guy. Pointless, downright offensive and in a nightmare situation a pain in the ass.
applebee's: indulging in a bout of stuff-my-face-therapy. Dance show: you're doing it wrong!
Hello world! this is my 1000th twit! btw the VIP theatres at Perisur seem to have disappeared! what to do?

Planning FAIL: just found out we had two programming teams independently doing the same project.
Pear-flavored Clight tastes like crap.
They can afford to make mistakes because I have to fix them. I can't afford to make mistakes because, who's going to fix me?
Good old-fashioned bomberazo. Nothing quite like it to spice up an evening.
Today is independence day in Angola!
Credit card monthly payment was less than 5 figures! whee! I can't remember when was the last time this happened!
Just two words for today: FUCK. TELCEL.
Have to repeat a meeting we had 4 months ago. same topics, same presentation, same everything. Way to waste our time.
Problem when you reboot the 4-TB backup server after 3 months: if freaks out and spends an hour fsck'ing its hard drive.
Plug in a keyboard, log in and issue some commands, without a monitor connected. I don't know why people get so impressed by that.
