@Auspice WTF even.

I served with a friend who called (presumably calls) all soda 'Coke'. I would reliably bring exactly that when asked. A Coke is a Coke, and while I might entertain some interest in what sort of soda a person would like, I won't voice the question of what non-Coke Coke they might enjoy.

Because standards.

My MSB peeve is the need to be a professional arguer in order to voice an opinion here. Some of us just think things and state the things we think imperfectly without meaning anything that may be incorrectly implied by choice of wording, omission, or any other element.

The defense rests.

@Auspice I battle this by taking minutes-style notes in every meeting. It works great until I realize I've been editing the notes for 20 minutes while the meeting kept happening.

@Auspice

@Derp All the support, friend. It's funny because you need to push harder to make more money (while you're at the end of your rope). You need to make more money to be able to afford to save money. Money money money money motherfucking money, and the ones that have it are keeping it.

@Auspice I'm trying. I'm looking. This is a bad day; the final bastion of something I could point to and say 'well, at least I earn that from all this mental sickness I'm taking on' falls today. It's dumb; this object shouldn't be so meaningful that it's the thing breaking my shit right now to sit here and strip it clean, but I'll be damned if it isn't. Earlier today I was looking into remote freelancing opportunities... going to need a computer for that, though. Blah. You suppose the 'old' job will just let me keep their rig if I ask nicely? Tee. Tee hee.

Nonetheless, thank you for your encouragement.
