After 9 years here, I finally found a font I like. Corbel.
That's basically Frutiger renamed and stamped 'copyright Microsoft'. |

Well yeah, if they had squared off the tail angles, Frutiger would have sued. That's almost his signature. But its basically Frutiger.

That depends what typeface you use to say it. |

It would make sense for something like that to automate public key exchange. Sadly, they missed that opportunity.

Someone who has been working on UNIX (AIX even) for a long time should know not to change a GID and... then... do nothing. Nevermind doing this on a running production SAP/Oracle system. Hulk smash... but Hulk tired, Hulk lay down somewhere and lament state of humanity.

If your system was running SAP, they probably did you a favor. Randomly swapping inodes would be better.

I take your point, but I'm generally on the hook for cleanup.

Please let her know that no one in the whole world cares what the fucking premier of Ontario says about anything so there's really no point in trying to get him to somehow intervene in their civil war by screwing up our traffic with pointless protests in front of the U.S. consulate and one of our major freeways.

My mother, who has never played a computer game in her life, just installed Rome: Total War on her own and is trying to find out how to play, because... oh, the buildings and trees look pretty.

That is awsome. I am still not convinced that Rome isn't the best of the 4. I haven't played Shogun, so can't comment on that.

I should get back to nature, too. You know, like going to a shop for groceries instead of the computer. Maybe a condo in the woods that doesn't even have a health club or restaurant attached. Buy a car with only two cup holders or something. -Signe

No, that is terrible. If she starts gaming then I'll also have to provide tech support for that. Additionally, she doesn't know an iota of english, so I'd be called upon to translate shit.

Dude, gift horse, meet mouth. Think of xmas, birthdays. Mom hooks you up with the latest RTS. You just can't beat that for cool.

We never had christmas, easter, children's day, or birthday presents. Sons can be very ungrateful creatures. |

Other people buying games for me will almost always end in regret. I expect this situation to be similar. Hopefully she will not start playing The Sims.

My mum started playing Civ 4 after she saw me playing it on a recent visit. She gets offended and quits when one of the AI civs declares war on her.

I was going to point out how illogical that was (in very snarky fashion) until I remember how my wife never understood why I ran around just shooting innocent hookers in GTA4. Because I can, dumn woman! |

My wife asks me why I attack cute things and my answer is usually "They are full of candy."
I saw a car catching fire on the ride in to the office today. Really. It had already pulled over and I saw flaming drops of oil start to fall under it as I got closer, and looking back in the mirror I could see black smoke beginning to rise from the front. Later on I heard about it on the radio.
Of course, traffic was already terrible for some unknown reason so the report was again useless.

I wish that would happen to all of the cars on my morning commute. With their drivers dying an agonizing death.  |

My fiancee gets upset when I fuck up and in the magic time before I reload my save I go around nuking everyone in sight. "Why are you slaughtering everyone, you're an awful person!" She doesn't understand the "I'm going to reload, this never happens" line, and I just want to check stuff out, see who's got what or what's inside someone's locked house.
I should make her watch me play evil Shepard or something.

I have gotten that from a few people and my response is to stop playing, look them in the face with my "seriously-concerned" face and say "You know this is all pretend, right? These are not real people."
