When you are looking for an appropriate music stream and the first one you load is playing, "Pantera - Cowboys From Hell", there's no point looking further.

There. A profile pic that says, "Image I used when I had part of an Island in Second Life called 'Shortbus Academy' where I wrote really odd scripts. Don't judge.

Just asterisk, a space then the gibberish I say.
I was having problems with them earlier as well.

Oddly, I have a neighbor named Jerry.

I need a profile pic that doesn't say, "Broody guy drinking and smoking on a humid Georgia night in 2007 while being followed around by a podcaster with a camera."

  • I rarely drink
  • The smoking was an aberration due to stress and I dropped it again shortly afterwards.
  • The podcaster with camera was dropped as well (Long story but happy ending).

Congratulations!

Hello Tom Wilson,

Tom Wilson Pretending To Be Someone Else (redacted) has sent you a message on eee-eye-eee.io.

So, that works too. Awesome.

It's lecture time again.

When you receive an email from a long time client that requests you look at an important document and..

  • The sender is from rural Virginia, has known you for years yet starts the email, "Dear sir/madam" instead of her customary , "Hey <insert name here>"
  • Includes the phrase 'Secure pdf for your perusal'
  • Is followed almost immediately by an email CC'd to half of the Continental United States.

..delete the damned email instead of opening it then forwarding to everyone in the office because you're confused.

When you ask me if I'd replace your Linux workstation with a Windows one and I say, "No", this is why.

Revised to-do:

Make blog post say something other than "Please work, damnit"

There…nevermind…it works, now.
Must make post else you get 404.
Derp.
