That's pretty awesome.
Fantastic. What will you be helping people with?

For reasons I still can't explain--and I don't think any of my staff can explain, either--one of my sites ordered an iPad cart and 30 iPads to go with it.

The cart arrived two weeks ago. It's a nice cart, i guess.

The iPads arrived today. In a shocking turn of events I could never have anticipated (this is sarcasm btw), the existing chargers built into the cart don't fit the new iPad lightning port.

Now I have to gut the cart and try to install the lightning cables that came with the iPads, which feel and look about 1/10th as rugged as the cart's original 30-pin cables.

That has nothing to do with why I'm complaining.


I'm complaining because no one did their homework before ordering a bunch of tech stuff without telling me about it.

so friend A basically convinced friend B and me to go to another friends birthday pub crawl.

Now friend A needs to travel some distance to get here and was going to stay at friends B's place for the night. (well B's parents place to be technically exact) Except friend A suddenly mentioned her boyfriend was coming along as well and friend b was not aware of this and her parents don't want him sleeping in their house cos they don't know it.

So now its up in the air whether friend a will even turn up. Friend B and don't particular fancy pub crawling anyway. But i has facebook said i was. And there seems to be low grade drama fizzying around in the background.

Isn't havening the barest scrap of a social life fun.

That's why I don't like going out with more than two other people at once. We always end up spending the night wondering where to go.

Oh, it would be enjoyable, if people weren't completely STRESSING OUT about their "night plan". And everyone want to do something different, and some people have incompatible tastes, and then they start bickering about it in a passive-aggressive manner or just split up in their own group (TBH I prefer the second solution...)...

For fuck's sack people ! By now you should know you never do what you had intended when going out so just go with the flow and enjoy the show ! Dammit...

Two different people tried to kill me this morning on my drive to work.

It was quite stressful.

Did you get out of your car with the dashcam rolling and beat the shit out of them with a lead pipe and then hold them up to it and laugh at them while swearing endlessly?

And is it on Youtube yet?

No, Flagg. Like our sociopath.

You do it too, you just haven't figured out how to sell it as well.

So we've established that Flagg's our asshole, and MP is our sociopath, and I guess at this point that I'm our insomniac. Who's everyone else?

So friend A didn't turn up in the end.

Friend B and I attempt to go to the pub crawl. Cept that person was half an hour late and likes a pub that was ridiculously crowded and had a loud live band playing. So we made our excuses and left after bout half an hour.

Otoh we managed to show up which was better than A. So meh.

Well I don't have a lead pipe (just THUNDER! and LIGHTNING!). I also don't have a dashcam so I used my cellphone camera instead. Which is interesting because you get my patented Fistcam(TM) view as I pummel them. Then, instead of holding them up I set their cars on fire and then video myself kneeling on their throats.

I didn't put it up on Youtube though; I'm compiling a collection of these. Then I'll sell it to Fox as a new reality show for their World's Wildest series of programs.

I just need to make bail so I can make my appointment with the programming VPs.
