Well people accepting the result at all makes me WTF. :P

Good point, any way.

Speaking of WTF, apparently there's a colony of cockroaches living in my friend's apartment now. In a terrarium. As pets.

As far as I learned about US, their constitution allows seceding of the states via... guess what? Referendum.
Nope, the Constitution does not allow secession of states at all. And what's wrong with referendums?

By the way, as far as it looks like I don't know it very well, can someone gimme a link to download American constitution?

About referendum - I came from USSR politics thread where Crimean referendum discussion went into flame war, like, two times already.
There is no language in the constitution for dealing with secession. By all means that can be done but that won't stop the Federal Government to move in to retake control for protecting their assets or citizens. Like for instance back in the Civil War, West Virginia did not want to leave the union and in process once they announced their decision to leave the Confederate States, Lincoln immediately move them to allow statehood. The current laws state that no new states cannot be created from other contested state lands but in this case since Virginia wasn't part of the union they had free reign.

No, the ones that are too alien for a mere picture to convey their eldritch glory.

Probably Madagascar Hissing Cockroaches. My middle school science club had a bunch of them, they are pretty cool little things.

I found out the other day that in my state there is another J----- Fusco, sans my middle name, who is actually a registered sex offender.  And he also vaguely looks like me.  Except he has a fat chin, brown eyes, stupid blond hair, etc.

I found this out when talking to a friend who ran a background check on me.  :/

We got a new financial system at work at the start of April.  We got very little information on the system before it went live (and to be honest, after it went live) other than it was going to streamline everything, vastly reducing data input and saving us all lots of time (and by extension, saving our organisation lots of money). 

Today I learned that the part of my job that involves finance will see a 5000-10000% increase in workload under this new system.

I wish they actually were creating more jobs to handle the extra workload, but they're currently doing the opposite (although thankfully not through mandatory redundancies so far).

It does make me feel a little more confident about my own job security though :p

So I set myself on fire again today. My WTF is that I can say that, and sound bored.

Playing Rayman Legends, I went into the online challenges. And some man, with no life at all, a certain Halodan, seems to devote every second of his time to beating each challenge as they pop up.
I WTF at the fact that there's someone out there that cares enough about this one game to do nothing but play it day-in and day-out.
And if you're reading this, man, go outside. It doesn't burn.
