TO MOLLIFY LINGJACKSON OVERDRIVEBERT WHO IS THE SQUEAKY DESERT FIEND, POST ON THIS THREAD AND ONE OF YOUR FRIENDLY ITR MODS WILL TELL YOU THAT YOU ARE WICKED AWESOME, AND POSSIBLY OFFER AN EFFUSIVE ST

Nick, I appreciate your offer of help... and you may borrow my Anat and Phys textbook anytime you want.

John, I will come to your house and pack things for you for a couple of hours, but you will be forced to do dramatic readings from my med surg textbook for the duration. Beer drinking still okay, however.

the ridiculous thing is that i have just spent the last year in a position where i give the designer creative specs for every ad we put out, and i just delivered full specs for an entire... season brochure to him! so if this is how it works in the real world, why can't i just say that for my project?

I will come over and pack all of your shit, by which I mean I will stay here and party with friends in Boston.

Damn, Dan would have given such fantastic dramatic flair to the section on acute renal failure.

xpost I have no idea why school and real world stuff is so disjointed, but it is in nursing school in many ways, too. There is Nursing School World, For Real Nursing World, and NCLEX (board tests) world. It's kind of frustrating.

Anat and Phys? Howzabout we start with this and see how we go:

Sounds twicky tehresa and perhaps a little more MLB than my little league game (I'm a Brit in ur fred making baseball references) can handle. Does sound really interesting but that sentiment, I imagine, doesn't really help you.

I will also help with the packing, by which I mean I will compile my setlist for tomorrow night and sleeeeeeeep.

if it sways you any, it doesn't have to be perfect -- he just wants more than i am capable of!

if you actually think you could help out, i'd be happy to send you any american treat your british heart desires as thank you!

if you want to zap it in my direction i'll happily ch-ch-ch-ch-ch check it out but I don't want to raise hopes and then subsequently dash them when I realise I am in fact more spazzy than even I thought. i wouldn't want to disappoint ya and by extension itr in its entirety.

xpost Nick, I think that is a very good place to start.

i tried to send you a webmail - let me know if you don't get it!

a gentleman doesn't discuss such things but I went to funkytown last night *throws goats*

so faded @ the office today though. good thing nobody is expecting anything to get done because it's a. Friday b. the operations director's last day and therefore HAPPY HOUR

wont you take me, too?

yeah max you can be my +1
I will introduce you to all the dudes and babes who try their best everyday to keep the interwebs a little less fucked and protect our computernets from the dastardly communist party

i think he meant funkytown, not happy hour?

no he meant happy hour
max cannot go to funkytown with me he has to find his own style

duh

yeah i meant funkytown, but ill settle for happy hour

won't you take max to
drunken fugtown

that sounds horrible, I would hope I never have to take anyone to drunken fugtown

the road to drunken fugtown is paved with happy intentions.

I WAS NOT SUPPOSED TO LEAVE THE HOUSE THIS WEEKEND BUT NOW I HAVE TO GO BUY TOILET PAPER

I AM ALSO GONNA BUY MASSIVE AMOUNTS OF CAFFEINE AND NEVER SLEEP

party like a winehouse

have you formulated any trolling plans yet, omar, i have got high hopes.

by some odd coincidence, mssr. little has just reminded me that the nightmare of moving leads directly to the ability to listen to the Fugs again (only have vinyl) life is wonderful again, for about 2 or 3 minutes until it turns back to shit.

gotta 1.5 liter coke zero shit's about to get crazy

^^^ so sad

i thought about posting some awesome rare vinyl albums on an ilm thread and saying that i wanted to sell them to people who cared about music, and how i need money fast, and they were all discounted, and people could battle it out for which ones they wanted (limit ten per customer), and then after a week or so coming back and saying that i didn't actually own any of the albums

I would totally party w/tehresa

OMG did tombot SCORE last night???

i don't want to go to work today: i got into a huge screaming match with my boss last night after i told him for the hundredth time to not make derogatory jewish jokes ('hello my bf is jewish and you know it'). i told him to shut the fuck up, he told me to stop being so sensitive and get my head out of my ass, and then it basically escalated from there.

what a douche! stay home! permission: my boss actually left early yesterday because he said if he didn't he was going to kill another person in our office.

My brain thinks it is time to quit school for the year.

RR - what happened after it "escalated?" (Also wondering about tombot, but too faux-polite to ask)

haha sara mine does too but instead i am in the most important time possible and am still posting on ilx?

ILX = The Perfect Distraction; it's always there and it is endless...

tehresa, I'm just happy I'm not alone in my study/procrastination habits!

haha also i am now farming out pieces to ilxors

actually, i think i coudln't really farm out anything besides the graphic design cause no one would know what i was talking about.

hey, I tried to get John and Dan to read dramatically from my med surg book! (Again, great minds...)

My Exciting Friday Night Plans:

eat pizza from local place
read about dialysis and look at review questions
get kids into bed
lift weights
watch last night's 30 Rock and enjoy an alcoholic beverage (no idea what yet, but we have plenty; I will figure something out)

sara, it just got totally abusive, lots of name calling and yelling, him demanding explanations and me refusing. he was all 'have you actually asked jordan about this because i bet he wouldnt' even be offended' and i said 'go fuck yr self, its none of yr business what i've spoken to him about in regards to stupid racist jokes' and he kept insisting, and i said 'jordan's not here, I AM and i DON'T LIKE YR STUPID FUCKING JOKES'. and then he told me i was being a fucking bitch, and that there were plenty of things i say that he doesn't like and he never tells me to shut the fuck up, so i said 'well maybe you should, you goddamn sissy' and then he walked off swearing and went and complained to his whole family about me in italian because he's a goddamn sissy.

i am currently:

drinking coke zero
attempting to listen to ugly betty while typing up my business profile (wish i had dual monitors or something)
thinking about how i should have bought chocolate when i went to get toilet paper

i will:

stay up as late as possible to do as much of project as possible
try not to cry

ruby, aren't there like, laws about how he can't say that shit in the workplace? throw that in his face.

Wow. I don't have any idea how to respond to that; it sounds crazy!

So... not a fun night at work then. JEEEEEEEEZ.

(I did lol at "complained to his whole family about me in italian because he's a goddamn sissy," though.)

tehresa, you can do it! Hang in there! You will get this project done and then you will NEVER have to do it again.

he sounds like an awful person :(

;_; @ Rubyredd's boss

unless he finds this thread in which case: hey dude no hard feelings & also Rubyredd deserves a raise

of course there are laws, but i've been there 8yrs and they're my family practically and i'm leaving in exactly 59 days so i can't really do shit except tell him to go fuck himself. tonight, he'll either be a complete cunt (excuse my language, kids) or super nice. what annoyed me most is that he kept asking me if i was 'for real' - he thought i was just being facetious and that something else was up. but seriously: i'm protective about jordan, and he's jewish and his family is jewish, and i don't like the goddamn mean jokes and references. my boss was all 'but i've been making that joke for a year' and i was all 'yeah and i've been telling you for a year that i don't like it'.

he thinks i'm been overly sensitive (maybe i am, but that's not really the point) but he should be more goddamn sensitive. he's free to say whatever he wants, but in return i'm free to tell him to shut the fuck up.

xpost thanks cur1is <3

i don't think you're being overly sensitive, i think it's ridiculous that people think it's ok to constantly throw that kind of crap at someone after being repeatedly told it makes them uncomfortable. in my law class, we would call that the creation of a hostile work environment.

RR, you're right, of course. (ha, what is he going to do, FIRE YOU?!)

Also, my Dad does this exact same thing (making totally insensitive jokes/comments about race, gender, religious stuff). I have gone from getting into huge fights with him about it to moving my kids away from it.

hmmmm, I wonder what NZ laws are like...

Pizza eaten and now I'm going to make BARS.
