today, i drove to the wrong courthouse, in the wrong city, for a hearing.

This is meant in the spirit of solidarity, not oneupsmanship.

Today I learned that in relation to the writ application I filed last week (my first time personally filing anything), I:

1. Failed to complete the index, which was also incorrectly numbered (violation of the uniform rules of the state's appellate courts),
2. failed to send a copy to opposing counsel and the trial court and include an affidavit thereto (violation of the local rules of the court), and
3. failed to ensure that our office manager scanned a copy of the complete file into our digital records.

My boss is calling in an hour to discuss the event. I'm hoping I can put on my big girl pants and stop being a total wreck before then.

See, here, that would be NBD. Our court will just stamp it with a NOTICE OF DEFECT, and send it back like 'do it again'.

Dear motherfucker:

We are paying you enough money to buy a brand new luxury car to fix just this particular row of teeth, aspects of which you seem to be farming the fuck out to the lowest bidder, leading to predictable problems you have the dazzling gall to be surprised by.

I know you have your favorite scapegoats for everything, but unfortunately for you, I am able to both use google and read, so I am now aware of when you're trying to skate, dodge, or bullshit me.

I am also aware that you've been doing one or more of the following: not listening to information you've been told repeatedly, did not actually read the thing you've been citing or only skimmed for extremes, or are looking for a way to not make this just something you have to fix when it inevitably happens.

This is not good.

As a result, I feel compelled to say: YOU ARE A MEDICAL PROFESSIONAL WE ARE PAYING AN OBSCENE AMOUNT OF MONEY WE DON'T HAVE, DO NOT FUCKING SKIM THE RESEARCH, OR AT LEAST DON'T BE SO OBVIOUS ABOUT IT FOR FUCK'S SAKE.

Sincerely,
-Owface McLiterate

It becomes harder and harder not to shout at a grown-ass adult when they undermine your attempts to discipline your child, and then act like nothing happened.

Like, I get that you are a PA, but I’m the one with the psychology and teaching degrees. You stick to fixing them when they are sick and I will raise them into responsible adults that aren’t entitled fuckheads.

White people.

"Join the office bowling league!", my friend Michael said. "It's really fun and super casual!," he said. Don't worry about being a terrible bowler. No one takes it seriously! It's not actually competitive....

I now know more about bowling ball coverstock and internal weight layouts than I ever thought I would or, if we're being honest, wanted to.

@Aria Just hang out and occasionally yell "SHUT THE FUCK UP, DONNY."

I meeeeeeeeeeeean..........

I am having fun! Like, I am well and truly enjoying myself. Mostly.

But I'm a terrible bowler. Like, a truly terrible bowler. My handicap is almost 100 points that they just give me so I'm not sad. But I also warned them that I'm a terrible bowler, many times, and that I'm kind of fine with that because I'm there for the beer and the chatting. So the sheer amount of mansplaining from bowling nerds who think they're competitive sports nerds is buhhhhhhh. It's pretty tempting to shout "SHUT THE FUCK UP, DONNY." Like, regularly.

I don't care how many gifs you make @Tinuviel, Pepsi and bourbon do not go together..

[Tinuviel]

@Auspice YOU TILT THE GLASS AND POUR DOWN THE SIDE. That way you get a full fucking glass.

Adding anything to bourbon?

[Tinuviel]

I drink what I want to drink how I want to drink it. That is the only correct way to make a drink.

[Ganymede]

@Tinuviel

Drinking is like fucking: there are many ways to enjoy it, but there are still ways not to enjoy it.

Adding Pepsi to bourbon is the equivalent of fucking animals, and I will treat you accordingly.

[Tinuviel]

@Ganymede
Drinking is like fucking: You don't get to tell me how to fuck if I'm not fucking you.

@Tinuviel said in Real World Peeves, Disgruntlement, and Irks.:

Sure I can.

Don't fuck: (1) animals; (2) children; or (3) tailpipes.

Okay, I'll rephrase.

Leave me the fuck alone.

I will.

Once you stop adding cola to bourbon.

So beastly.

I wasn't joking. It's an actual request for you to stop.

Can we unpack this? I kinda feel like it might be okay to fuck your car's tailpipe but you're crossing the line when you fuck my car's tailpipe.

The conversation in my head is now a class debate on whether the NHS should bill people who fuck tailpipes for their care...

Austin has no magic shop that I can find.
And I don't mean M:tG. I mean 'place I can go to buy silly magic trick gimmicks because I'm a dork who likes them sometimes.'
