07/27/12 Lounge: The Money Shot 159

The Infected Schlong is okay, folks. Still infected. Still slinging pies.

I hope our Reno friends are having fun and remain safe. I also hope someone finally Pearl Harbors Mike while he is there.

    Do you ever decline a Words With Friends request because the person requesting the game is just so FKing bad at the game? Seriously, the last time I played her, I won by over 200 points. And I’m not very good.

        Timmy, have you ever seen a grown man naked?

        • Nurse Gertie Jul 27,2012 9:38 pm || Up

          I had to google that to know what you were talking about.

          HOLY CRAP. I was going to joke that I used to wrestle under the name Luna Vachon. So I google her to make sure I have the name correct. I do. But the interesting thing is her REAL name is Gertrude!

    Maybe they should change their name to P-Mobile?

    At the beginning of the year, Boss 2 told me I wouldn’t have hours when I started back at school in August.
    Boss 1 tells me a few weeks later I would have hours and I could work as a nurse, too.
    In May, Boss 1 tells me I can’t work as a nurse.
    A few days ago, Boss 1 tells me to sign up for a class at work FOR NURSES.
    I go to speak with Boss 2 today, and she tells me to bring my license in and I can do nursey things at work. I told her this was the exact opposite of what Boss 1 said. I am confused as hell.

    • ozzman99 Jul 27,2012 10:12 pm || Up

      Fuck ’em both. Show up, work as a nurse, frequently tell others to kiss your ass.

                You know, I have to show some of the nurses where supplies are in the ER, and I have to tell them what supplies each doctor will need for certain procedures. Now I can do the fun stuff!

  4. ozzman99 Jul 27,2012 10:13 pm

    There should be rules about what you’re allowed to eat before getting on an airplane. If it gives you gas, it’s not an appropriate meal when you’re going to be spending 4 hours in an enclosed metal tube with 150 other people.

    • Nurse Gertie Jul 27,2012 10:17 pm || Up

      I start getting realll antsy at around 2 hours in a plane… okay, a car, too. Oddly, I had a dream about the airport last night. I was in a car with 3 dead relatives, and my living aunt. I got lost driving them to the airport.

      Don’t ever get stuck at Kansas City’s airport. Unlike EVERY OTHER AIRPORT IN THE WORLD, KCI has all the fun stuff BEFORE the security check point. They have one snack stand per section, and it isn’t the best.

      • ozzman99 Jul 27,2012 10:22 pm || Up

        Charleston doesn’t have any fun stuff in the airport, before OR after security.

        • Nurse Gertie Jul 27,2012 10:26 pm || Up

          The nice thing about KC, though, is you can go through security in 15 minutes on a good day.

          BTW, I just looked up some of the themes in my last dream, and it said,

          “To see an airport in your dream symbolizes birth (arrivals) and death (departures).” So I’m guessing my living aunt is going to die, since she was in the car with her dead mother, dead aunt, and dead husband.

          • ozzman99 Jul 27,2012 10:30 pm || Up

            You were in that car too.

                Anybody else suddenly got a craving for a Filet O’ Fish?

                • Nurse Gertie Jul 27,2012 10:43 pm || Up

                  I’ve never had a Filet O’Fish either. I’ve had a fish sandwich at Sonic, though. They have them during Lent. I don’t order it much, because I can’t say the words “fish” and “sandwich” when they are put together.

                • ozzman99 Jul 27,2012 10:47 pm || Up

                  Really? What do you say? Burger of the sea? Swimming thing encased in bread? Blwegowianrv?

                • Nurse Gertie Jul 27,2012 10:49 pm || Up

                  Fish combo with no fries. LOL

              “Metaphorically, driving a car in your dream is analogous to your sex life and sexual performance. Consider how you are driving and what kind of car you are driving and how it relates to your waking sex life.”

                • Nurse Gertie Jul 27,2012 10:42 pm || Up

                  After more reading, my dream basically meant I don’t know where my future is going, I am uncertain, my goals are changing, and I am confused. Sounds about right.

                • ozzman99 Jul 27,2012 10:42 pm || Up

      So the Doyers got Hanley, and the Gnats got Scutaro.

      It’s close, but I think maybe LA got the better of the two deals.

    So, I went to a local event the other night, which is something I don’t do often. Anyway, it was a meeting in the back room of a restaurant, and right away, like right off the FKing bat, I saw my best friend’s mother and two ex-girlfriends. Except, it had been many years since I’d seen any of them or they me, and I weigh about 40 less pounds now and present femme. I used to crossdress back then, so I was surprised none of them recogniz(s)ed me at all. It took me about an hour to make enough observations of these people to realiz(s)e that they were only 98% doppelgangers of the people I used to know. I mean, these people had the same mannerisms, glasses and hair styles, body types, and even some of the same piercings. It was kinda creepy and threw me off balance.

    overall, i’m pro the sporty as done by algeria but not argentina, the preppy as done by the netherlands but not the united states (the hats…), and the typical as done by senegal but not mexico. the WTF category has strong showings too, with england, spain, estonia, and finland.

It sounds cool to have automatic saving and versioning for everything, but then the file is no longer a simple thing that can be easily messed with and manipulated. I guess this is only true for files created by applications that buy into the idea and use the APIs provided by apple. Maybe I’m talking myself down from my state of distrust… I don’t know.

          I’m sick of the shitty trending towards excessive GUIs. It makes it functionally inferior when it provides no backbone for functional/programmable customization, but the attitude is “Look, it’s pretty! And it’s so easy it can’t do anything we didn’t explicitly design it to do so it’s ‘better’!” I’m being forced to use a new software for work like that. And a recent conversation with the software support guy could be condensed to “We don’t want you to try to do anything with our product that it wasn’t designed to do so instead of setting something up once to be repeated over and over again (which such functionality doesn’t natively exist) it’s “better” to write each question/part over and over and over again. In a GUI. With a fucking shit ton of point-and-click. Better.

            Well to be fair ever since Apple acquired the Xerox (icon?) tech way back pretty intuitive GUI has been the key to their success.

            • dmoas Jul 28,2012 2:43 pm || Up

              My problem isn’t with GUI in general. It has it’s place and it’s a HUGE advancement for tech. My problem is the laziness of reliance solely on the GUI alone. Everything should have a command line based underbelly that (hopefully) only a developer would ever need. But in the specific case I was referring to, we’re talking about a program *for* programmers that has zero scripting-based functions. It has “scripting” but, no macro/loop/repeat functionality for programs. You have to set of every element as a unique piece. So you can’t development real templates and all changes need to be done at a micro level, manually.

          Auto-save been useful in applications like Open Office and Gmail.
          I would never want this to happen w/ any music recording applications or design programs where file separation is essential.

          Currently the user base for better or for worse expects a new product annually, aside from Siri most of the updates just seem to be commercial rebranding of the same products.

        Now I’m coming around and thinking that maybe I will upgrade. I’ve had a lot of time to think about my operating system, because I have spent my afternoon doing: 1. set heater voltage; 2. wait for temperature to stabilize; 3. make note in the log; 4. go to 1.

        • AV Jul 28,2012 2:50 pm || Up

          i upgraded mainly so that i can use ibooks author, which i couldn’t with my OS because i was a whole OS behind. am amused by the new stuff, and am treating it like a new $20 toy that slightly affects my work (on that front, i’m already using reminders that sync phone-to-comp). but i agree with you guys about wanting to be able to touch my files separately, and i do that anyway.

            What calmed me down is that I realized that the things I do on my mac desktop at home are completely different from what I do with my linux laptop at work. So if I think only about the stuff I actually use my mac for, there is unlikely to be any disruption.

            …and I like new things too.

    and that quickly, seeing the info board at the pool that said a mile is 50 lengths not the 50 laps i actually did, becomes the second most interesting news of my day.

    susan sussler is supposed to be on 95.7 the ghame around 2:45.

      Wait, so that means you did 2 miles thinking you were doing one? That sentence confuses me.

      • AV Jul 29,2012 10:05 am || Up

        the very lovely, park-side lions pool in oakland. it’s 35 yards (??) long. i’m used to this regular 25-meter pool. so when i got in yesterday i noticed it was different and i asked the lifeguard how long it was. she said she didn’t know but that 50 laps was a mile. i’m not good at head math so i just took her word for it and started swimming. i did notice it was taking an awful long time for the mile but i figured i was just swimming slow. when i was leaving, there was a handwritten sign in the entrance that said a mile was 50 lengths. it’s not totally out of my range, on a long workout i’ll swim 3000 meters, but this was just a funny surprise. i immediately sought a suadero (beef brisket) torta and a half liter of coke.

          good for you.

          out of curiosity – how long do you need for 2 miles? you swim freestyle?

            it was like 1:30 or 1:45 but i didn’t really check. i was going slow and i take breathers every 5 laps. 5 breast, 35 crawl, 10 back.

    susslu on radio, paraphrased: from what i can tell suzuki is staying. very little said officially about plans for anyone. reddick was running around the clubhouse wearing a spideman costume. beane is certainly still looking.

        He has crappy traditional stats but look here –

        .352 wOBA

        122 wRC+

        .151 ISO

        25% BB / 20.7% K

        .409 OBP

        .8 WAR

        He doesn’t totally suck, he also hit 22 HR’s in AAA in 2008 but not sure w/ the park ratings were like.
