Cisco apparently does not understand how gears work

I hate this more than anything

This has gone on long enough, and I require an outlet for my rage. There is this rather out of shape person (to put it mildly) in my office, and every so often, she decides to criticize what I'm eating for it's nutritional content (or lack thereof).

This just seems to be one of the most obvious of modern day cultural rules to me. If you are fatter than somebody, you cannot criticize them for eating unhealthy food. You are especially not allowed to criticize the reason for being able to eat an unhealthy meal occasionally (namely, that I run at least 5 miles per day). If you care that much about nutrition and health, learn to apply it to yourself.

Get yo shit out my business!

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

This is the worst thing that has ever happened.

They took away the kung fu channel. Forever. Like really, it's gone. And I didn't even know it was coming. Link. And more.

Luckily, I managed to record a few last movies on my DVR before they shut it down, perhaps most heartbreakingly including Brave Archer 2 and 3, but not the first one. I also got Way of the Dragon, Life Gamble, Martial Arts of Shaolin, Shaolin Abbot, and Pursuit of Vengeance -- all among my favorites. But needless to say, my prospects of winning the battle to stay sane until April have just become decidedly bleaker.

I am quite close to tears. I feel like my cat just died.

Good luck, Nisse!

Hey Nisse, I tried to look at the island reef job you were talking about, but the page wouldn't load. Then today I found this:

Demand for the best job in the world crashes website



Hilarious! But seriously, good luck on your interview!

Man, I wish I was in Tampa right now


I really hope this turns into a youtube video at some point.

Australia, anyone?

Somehow, on my neverending quest for a job (I do have an interview on Thursday, yay!)I came across this:

If you don't feel like reading the whole thing, basically Australia's tourism board is billing this as THE BEST JOB IN THE WORLD. Whoever gets it is paid $100,000 for a 6-month stay on the oceanfront, and the job involves doing all this touristy stuff (swimming, scuba diving, etc.) around the Great Barrier Reef--and blog about it. I think I'll apply just for fun.
