A Large man, Latino, black hair, approximately 5'7, 250lbs, knocked on my door wearing a wrinkled gray shirt and shorts. Thought it was my wife who was coming home from work around the same time, so I unlocked and opened the door. Asked for vanessa. I said no vanessa was here and Closed door. I Locked both front and back door. He continued to slam on door with his fist. Claimed to work for the apartment complex. I have never seen the man before, nor have I ever even HEARD of such practices at this complex. I know that I have the right to not answer the door to my own home. Was home alone with child. I sure as hell was not going to open the door while child was home and allow for the potential of a home invasion.
I Took son to the master bedroom. Sat him down in there. Put on cartoons to keep him from freaking out. I came back out, and the man still slamming on door threatening to call the police, which is even more ridiculous. I hadn't gotten around to calling the police myself yet before my wife comes home and signs some piece of paper which she did not get a copy of, nor did she get to read.
I'm so glad to know that my apartment now hires goons. Makes me feel better about things.
I've lived in urban areas for the last 10 years, and wasn't going to fall for a con like that. If I don't recognize someone, I will not open the door. The only reason I opened the door to begin with is because I thought it was my wife. This is the 4th largest urban area in the United States. I will not put myself or my family at risk by answering the door for a stranger who does not know my name or the name of anyone who lives in my home. |

Ryan: god the priest forums bore me
Ryan: way too much fucking math
Me: yeah, you hate math.
Me: I know
Ryan: seriously
Ryan: does healing really require statements like
Ryan: "Interesting graph, so I guess that means that the mana regen model isn't linear and is somehow exponential ?"
Me: should I show you the math behind diminishing returns again?
Ryan: you can show me, but i'll just click x
Ryan: and go back to my coloring book
Me: yeah, one thing I do have a gift for is math
Ryan: and i have a gift for coloring books. i always stay inside the fucking lines. always |

| Did you call XXXX? |
[Sep. 26th, 2009|12:59 pm] |
Not me: Did you call XXXX?
Me: Yes, I did call XXXX. I also called YYYY.
Not me: So you called XXXX?
Me: Yes I did, would you like to see my phone?
Not me: No, that's alright. So you promise me you called XXXX?
Me: Yes
Not me: You swear?
Me: *Frustrated* Here's my phone. Here is my recent calls. Here is where I tried to call XXXX at 12:29 and YYYY at 12:30. Obviously I have to prove it to you because I apparently must lie to you about everything.
Not Me: *grabs all their stuff and walks away angrily* God you're so mean! |

I'm really looking forward to coming home and actually being able to spend some quality time with my wife and kid without having to work in the evening.
Hopefully Friday.
Oh, and sweetie, I miss spending real quality time with you terribly. |

Sci-Fi Channel is changing their name to Syfy.
So basically, they've killed off any of their good shows, and they're changing their name to something incredibly stupid.
Yeh, good luck there. |

I'm seriously done with Qwest.
Gotta love those 3MB qwest VDSL lines, right?
Gets worse.. Getting about 8-10% packet loss. Gotta come home by noon to let these fucks take a look at it, because the next appointment opening wasn't until next tuesday.
Fucking clown shoes.
I'm NEVER living anywhere where they don't have Cox again. Tired of their lies. |

The day before blizzard's new expansion pack comes out for world of warcraft.. The servers were down all day.
Then they come up for 5 hours. Then they go down again because they fucked some stuff up and were giving away season 2 gear for free.
I laughed. hard. |

"Sir, Sir! I've deleted all my files"
"Yes my child, and pray tell me how"
"I wanted to delete directories fred1 and fred2 but I typed rm -rf fred * when should have typed rm -rf fred*"
"Ah ha, and what have you learnt"
"To beware of powerful file name globbing facilities that my shell provides for my careful use."
"Yes my child, you have learnt a painful lession. Now you must learn how to recover files from one of the many, multiply redundent backup tapes you have carefully written every evening ever since you were granted a powerful personal workstation."
"Master, I'm eager to learn!"
