Chopped some garlic for lunch today. Washed my hands several times since then, with soap and without. They still reek of garlic, and I can't stop smelling them for some reason, even though I know they stink.

I believe the smell of garlic comes from an oil. Which tends to cause it to mix with oils on the skin, making it hard to remove.

Embrace the garlic. After all, it is a part of you now.

You shall succumb to the garlic.
YOU SHALL.

This is obviously a new superpower.

I'd try booze but there's a shortage of that right now :C

Also I'd consider it more of a curse or an Eldricht Superpower than something beneficial :C

Like many other things that make you rage, garlic smell can be killed with steel.

Tried doing something nice for mum by washing the dishes this morning. Her first reaction is to tell me I'm doing it wrong and storm off in a bad mood like she always does. Shows me for trying to do something nice of my own volition.

Spoiler: Harry Potter and the Methods of Rationality Chapters 88&89 Spoilers (click to show/hide)

Because he fridged Hermione after giving her a nice long arc about her developing into a deuteragonist.  In order to motivate Harry.

I don't care if it was the rationalist thing to do or not, I'm pretty fucking pissed.

[Descan]

It did seem a little... rushed. >_>

My dishwasher broke again. God. Dammit.

Okay, who the heck turns on loud, annoyingly tinny music at 11:47 pm? -_- I suspect it's the pub across the street. It's so tinny and persistant and they won't goddam stop. They play from like 9 pm to 9 am the following day.

Fixing people's computers who are no longer paying clients.

My boss likes his business relationships. Unfortunately, he's cultivated a lot of relationships with people who have terrible, shitty fucking servers that require tons of maintenance and long-term problem fixing (No Base Filtering Engine even registered in services.msc? Jesus fucking christ.)

There's nothing like spending an hour+ fixing windows issues for a customer you know isn't going to give you any goddamn money, and who is going to take your help as a sign they can still fucking call you whenever a) their printing doesn't work b) they don't know how to use Microsoft Excel or c) they're in trouble with the IRS and ask you to bail their stupid asses out because they don't know how to run their fucking business.

Goddamnit, if it was at least related to support for our product I might not mind. But it's only tangentially related, and these guys really should be paying a 3rd party tech support to terminally unfuck their server, because I shouldn't be wasting any goddamn time on this.

You know, business relationships  usually means that they are giving you fucktons of cash and you are their unwavering slave.

In our case it means "You spread the word about our company to everyone in the business, and tech support will bend over backwards for you at no charge."
