Geezerz need excitementIf their lives don’t provide them this they incite violenceCommon sense simple common senseGeezerz need excitementIf their lives don’t provide them this they incite violenceCommon sense simple common sense
Out the club about three, to the take-awayThe shit-in-a-tray merchants, shops got special perchant for the disorderlyGeezerz looking ordinary and a few looking learyChips fly round the sound of the latest chart entryAn incendiary waiting to blastNo harm with the contest who can throw the furthestBehind the counter they look nervous, butCarry on cutting the finest cuts of chicken from the big spinning stickThen over flies a chip, flips, and hits you on the backYou spin round on the attack’fuck you playing at? he looks like a cheshire cat, almost falls downYour frowns and superman eye lasers don’t even registerBy now you want to leather this twatAnd forever you're gonna regret that, your choice of pathSo mash his head up and your girl's now fed upBut stop to think and it’s never gonna be the jackie chan scene it could have been to end up

Nobody did Steely Dan better than Steely Dan, but everyone who did Bowie did Bowie better, for pretty much every stage of his career - I'd much rather listen to the Associates, or glam Eno, or etc etc etc.

there was this dude in my college that i used to have a few musicology classes with. he'd always raise his hand in class and talk and emphasize everything with "etc, etc, etc". very annoying. apparently he's found his way to ILM :(

it's a terminal nerd condition called Precise Vagueness... the person can't make inaccurate or insufficient statements without feeling like they'll make themselves look stupid so everything's "kind of" or "possibly" or "in most cases" fuzzed out like a mudhoney guitar line. "etc etc etc" and "QED" and whatever extra bonus point snazzy way they can cover everything they didn't know to add.
many developers have this disease. drives the suits CRAZY. "is it secure YES OR NO?!?!?!!" "most likely." "[the sound coming out of your mouth when brains are popping]"

haha me too, top phrases include "in certain ways," "for some people," "at some point"

i get plenty of jokes at my expense over it. "msp's gonna say 'weird' again! LOL!" it's really kind of silly cause they want a very definite answer. for them that's short and to the point. for me, deep in the details, the definite answer is lost to wild speculation. i'm giving them the closest real answer i can. it's fucked up because when i say, "we're pretty secure" i mean, "we're as secure as you're gonna pay for" ... the best practices we can muster. yet i KNOW it's still wide open on points A, F, and Q... meanwhile, there's shit we don't even know about cause we're too busy to go there.
in my own way, i'm being as definite as i can. they don't see me as definite at all. it's the fast track to not getting promoted. and it's the reason why the biggest bumbling idiots always seem to become the boss. (get those guys outta the code anyway... "every time he uses svn, the trunk doesn't build! FUYCK!")

I had a friend who did this on aim. She'd write really long messages then sign them. She was cute so I let it slide. It was cute.

Developers and coders and etc (lol) don't talk in absolutes because if they did, the suits would ream them later if they said "well this will be done in 10 days" and it wasn't.

xxxposts to TOMBOT
Stop what? You deleted everything and now you want to stop conversation?
It wasn't about me OR Ally - I am starting to understand your moniker and why people actively dislike you.
Ally the Schef attacked me verbally, given this question: Do you have a problem with me?
That entire thing has been deleted because we all love the HOOS.
Could you give me a fucking break? Please?
Thanks, Alison

One day I need some ILXor veteran to sit me down and slowly explain all this Ally business and Luna business, because I've been here since 2005 and I don't understand 90% of what anyone is talking about since all ILX is anymore is Dom bumping old threads.
