Despite the amount of time I spend whining about working for a souless international company, there are some perks which I can appreciate, especially this time of year. Because my company is so large, we illict a certain amount of pandering from the print vendors in the area. They mail us calendars and give-a-ways, take [...]
In a brief statement released by his publicist, R. Dick Clark, the robotic host of Dick Clark’s Rockin’ New Year’s Eve for the last three hundred years has announced that his circuits cannot take another “six hours in the fucking cold.” His position will be taken over by a much less advanced robotic humanoid, R.

Hey, whaddya know, the Red Lobster in my building flooded again! This would make the fifth flood in my building in less than three years. This one was so bad that they had to shut down the elevators and close the building. You’d think that they’d figure out what was wrong with the pipes or [...]
