What's wrong with this picture.

Posted on September 14, 2005 By admin 20 Comments on What's wrong with this picture.

Some background: I'm leaving for Italy at a ridiculous time tomorrow morning with about 70 people from my group. Some of the interns are coming along.

One of them just asked me if I was going to bring my laptop with me, and if so, did I want to load some games for a LAN party.

*head goes boom*

You're in fucking Italy and you want to spend your nights playing world of warcraft???

I weep for the next generation.

    That's fucked up. Then again, I spent a month in Montreal and almost never left the apartment. :D

    *GRIN*

    or maybe the topic of a talkshow…

    Tomorrow, on Oprah, Emilie will tell us about her evil girlfriend and her insatiable needs. An astounding tale of lustful desires. She was used and abused and she'll never be the same. Don't miss Emilie's astonishing confession tomorrow on Oprah.

    nothing on the calendar so far, no. And to tell you the truth, I'm all conferenced out :( Katy and I will just have to invite ourselves for a month then, I guess.

    How about Jerry Springer?
    he's bound to “spring” (ouch!) Sara on you as a surprise guest.

    …not that i've ever actually seen either show.

    The confession: “I loved it. I couldn't get enough of it! MORE!!!”

    Nah, Oprah seems more likely. She'd be all sympathetic and she'd pat my back in a very loving manner while never forgetting to give her best smile to the camera. God, I love that woman. ;D

    *grin*
    I'd happily let you have my bed for a couple of nights and sleep in the kitchen, but anything longer than that, and you'll have a host with a broken back.
    …they tell me that's unhealthy.

    nah.
    not astonishing enough.

    hehe. Let us get a bit of a breather first, and well see what we can do. Between my conferences and the fact that we've been spending almost all our weekends in Leicester for the past 3 months, Katy and I barely have had any time to ourselves for ourselves :(

    Her show is so beautiful disgusting. I love despise how she exploits people's troubles. Yeah, you could say I hate a love/hate relationship with Oprah. ;P

One of the universal rules of happiness is: always be wary of any helpful item that weighs less than its operating manual.
