    Pineapple Express: Someone Is Wrong on the Internet?

    This is generally me, in any situation short of actual decapitation. In which case, it'd be, "I'm a little banged up, I'm fine... has anyone seen where the rest of me went?" I really need to stop doing that someday. It's been catching up to me much faster than it used to.

    Pineapple Express: Someone Is Wrong on the Internet?

    The company operates on a points system - once you've used up your sick time, you start accruing points for calling out. And when you call out and don't have any sick time left, they use your PTO to cover the lost time. So if I'd worked every day that week, I would have had more than 40 hours...

    Pineapple Express: Someone Is Wrong on the Internet?

    Jack is irritated. (See? --> :mad:) The night before last Jack had to call out of work because he wasn't feeling well. This resulted in Jack getting written up for too many call-outs, and in Jack losing the two-and-a-half hours of overtime he'd put in earlier in the week. On the other hand...

    Ouch. I lost a backpack once that I'd carried for about 15 years and that had all my poetry/journals and my senior yearbook in it. I feel your pain.

    What Bit Of Fan Fic/Edit/Theory Made a Thing Better or even GREAT For You?

    Yep - the Empire is very much pro-Human. I'm not that deep into the lore but, although the Sith don't much care about race (Maul was a Zabrak, and the original Sith race themselves were red-skinned), there aren't any aliens of note in the service of the Empire itself other than Grand Admiral...

    What Bit Of Fan Fic/Edit/Theory Made a Thing Better or even GREAT For You?

    It's a bit old-fashioned by now, since every tv series that manages to make it past the pilot episode these days eventually does a crossover episode (if the pilot episode itself wasn't a spinoff or crossover), but I've always been a big fan of the Tommy Westphall theory. I mean, barring clearly...

    Well, I mean... Technically, it kind of depends on what you're writing with. Pencil lead is just kind of on the margin. But ink may or may not actually get absorbed by the paper, so it might be in the margin... <yells "God save King George!" and runs out of tavern>

    Fighting the Gray Tide (Miniature Painting)

    Fun Fact: I once drove to Point Pleasant, WV, home of the Mothman, to do Rocky Horror... I drove over the actual bridge from the urban legend on my way to the local Goodwill with a local whose uncle had been on the bridge when it collapsed.

    Y'know those days where you kinda feel like you're an npc in someone else's adventure? :unsure: Lately I'm starting to think maybe I'm that one really obnoxious npc that everyone goes out of their way to kill... :rolleyes:

    Fighting the Gray Tide (Miniature Painting)

    That guy comes up on Evilbuy every so often, but it's hard to find a complete one - all three of the hands are separate pieces, so you usually find the body with anywhere from 0-2 of the hands on it. However, he's about the right size that you could maybe find some larger GW hands (like a power...

    It occurred to me today that if I played the bagpipes, I could make videos of me performing in a chicken nugget costume and call my youtube channel The Fried Piper...
