Paranoia quote from work

“Your paranoia is affecting the systems, causing them to panic.”

Goodbye, cap locks

By cormander

Today, I got mad at the cap locks key my laptop. It now no longer works.

No, I didn’t bust it in a fit of rage. I carefully removed the insides of it so now pressing it no longer turns on the CAP LOCKS.

So, goodbye cap locks. You’re something I won’t be missing.

Carrying lots of cell phones

By cormander

The on-call rotation at work happens on Fridays at around noon; the guy going off-call goes home, and the guy going on-call has a week of stress ahead. Part of being on-call is the on-call phone.

The guy going on-call this week has a lot of mobile devices. I mean a LOT! His personal cell phone, his personal blackberry, his work cell phone, and now, the on-call phone. A comment was made to him as it was handed to him:

“Just so you know, your chances of getting laid decrease by 33% for each cell phone you have on you.”

I jumped in on the comment and made one of my own:

“Also, your chances of getting interrupted while being laid go up by about 33% for each cell phone.”

Like I’ve said in the past; our on-call phone is worse then a newborn baby in terms of amount and frequency of noise. And if you ignore it, it only gets louder.

Creationism vs. Evolution

By cormander

A friend of mine sent me an image about creationism vs. evolution and it sparked a short discussion about it … here’s what he said in regards to how humans came to earth:

“I believe we populated venus and a planet that is now the asteroid belt. The rulers right hand man attempted a coup and venus was nuked and the planet where the asteroid belt was at was, well, yah. survivors, some came here, some went to mars. end of story.”

That would make a great movie.
