I just realized that maybe the stuff going on in the LCS isn't really that drastic compared to whats going on in real life...

My mother just had a good idea(which is why this is here). She suggested I ask what the cost of a month's pass for the bus would be, and even said she'd give me the money for it.

But will she actually do so is the question. isn't she the one that said she'd take you home from your to-be job and then didn't?

[Akura]

Exactly, else I'd have put it in the Happy thread.

Imagine my reaction when I learned that there was a Daikatana game for the Gameboy Color.

I got an email from what is supposedly an hr person working for a company which, by the looks of it, is essentially a fashion design company. I can't for the life of me figure out whether it's legit or not.

In the not-legit category:
The two e-mails (the 'from' and the 'reply to') are both for non-domain accounts on free email service websites (microsoft's Live and Yahoo). There is 1 break with typical syntax in the 2 sentences of the email, a lack of a space between the end of a sentence and the start of the next one. I, along with pretty much everyone else in my major (game development) are pretty much anathema to the aesthetic of such a company. My resume doesn't qualify me for much more than very light web-dev work at such a company.

In the legit category:
This is my RIT email account; an account which does not get spam or other unwanted email simply because I rarely give it out to anything; usually only to potential employers. Since the university uses a version of gmail for our mail, it would almost always detect when it is coming from a not-legit source. This late in the season, any company looking for, and unable to find, a summer intern would likely be mailing everyone in the potential intern pool; a company like that, if they were to look for programmers, would likely not find any for the simple reason that such a company is as anathema to us as we are to them.

Guess I'll be contacting whoever this is tomorrow. Heh, who knows, maybe I'll be a neckbeard working at a fashion company.

Beggars in Oslo are now apparently packing VISA pay terminals. "Could you spare a 20 for a coffee? Just insert card here, pin and OK."

Dwarf Fortress just opened its self without me clicking on it (or I clicked on it without thinking)...

Oooook. That's weird.

My daughter today, out of nowhere, vocalized that she's aware that we eat animals. Furthermore, she's okay with that. Every kid I've ever known that realized that has utterly and completely freaked out. She spent about 20 minutes this morning asking me about what everyone's favorite animal was to eat. O_o

[Korbac]

She sounds a bit of a prodigy.

[Lord Shonus]

Sounds like someone was trying to gross her out.

[MaximumZero]

She had a dream about chasing down and then taking a bite out of a live chicken.

different wtf: Just saw a commercial for Duke Nukem Forever.
