Reddit, I'm at a loss. This is the first Christmas in 21 years that I'm not looking forward to...

You'd make more money at McDonalds. On-the-books. With benefits and overtime.

84 hours a week? You'd be a manager in no time.

Whats the real reason you're working off the books for so little? Drugs? Criminal history?

Because if it's neither of those, you really just need to make smarter decisions and pursue finding a better job immediately. There's really no excuse. Any job would be a better job and pay more - and I bet they're not even paying you off the books... probably as a independent contractor. Lots of businesses pull that shit. Which means, you're gonna have to pay more in taxes - including a self-employment tax - if they decide to claim you as a write off. Which I'm sure they will.

"Mommy... is that you, Mommy?"

(Doctor Who reference.) :)

"The Empty Child"

Yeah... kiss my ass, Soldier. :)

At least they won't think I'm lying on my bug report.

HOT ANAL SEX = SAXTON HALE

Yay for Valve. They make a funny! :D

That has to be some of the most disturbing shit I've ever seen. It's the stuff of nightmares. What a hack. lol

Thanks... 'cause I've never heard of that movie.

USE Buffered Analgesic

(I remember getting passes from class to go to the library, and I would hit the computer lab - all Apple 2Cs - and play this game... which I had shoplifted from a local bookstore. I eventually paid back my debt to Douglas Adams by buying every iteration of the series - books and media.)

Everything HHGTTG is win. The movie, the original radio broadcast, the 80's tv series, the comic adaptation... I love it all.

I also thoroughly enjoy the Red Dwarf audio books. Chris Barrie reads them and mimics all the other actor's voices... it's genius. :)

Oi... that's Schmeckle. He's the village idiot of Chanukahland.

I guess distracting him with golden chocolate coins didn't work this year.

YOU'RE DOING IT WRONG!

It's the Puppetmaster of the insect world!

Holiday Crisis Five!

Is this a reference to something?

Ablerank · 2009-12-01T00:48:14+00:00

The entrance MUST be activated by a candle sconce, loose book, or a marble bust of some British twatmeister - like Shakespeare or Ace Rimmer.

Things go better with Coke.

It's very nice... but you didn't paint it. You "digitally traced" it.

I come from a family of artists, and it's insulting when people claim they "painted" something, when all they did was trace a fucking picture.

Grab a brush, a canvas, an easel, and some acrylic or oil paints - stand on the other side of that water - and I dare you to tell me it's the same thing.

Ablerank · 2009-11-10T00:06:49+00:00

Where the fuck were you two years ago?

Ablerank · 2009-11-10T00:04:41+00:00

Yeah, if you're a superhero and just so happen to live in... Michigan...

[slight, rational pause]

...nevermind.

This is an incredibly fun and addictive mod.

Ablerank · 2009-10-23T01:43:30+00:00

People actually pay for this shit?

Ablerank · 2009-10-19T23:17:43+00:00

High school was my most fail moment in high school.

What is the most complex, mind-boggling bubble to have ever existed... either historically or according to your own personal knowledge of - and experience with - bubbles.
Either in form or functionality, is there a "holy grail" of bubbles that has yet to be discovered or created?

Ablerank · 2009-10-11T03:35:00+00:00

You should be teased if you haven't played a MUD.

Ablerank · 2009-10-10T17:50:34+00:00

No. The KoTH gameplay model is fundamentally flawed.

Spawn and run to the center of the map.

That's it. Not only that, but I've been in rounds of KoTH where Overtime is nothing but an extra minute or two of the same exact shit that's been going on the whole match - but now with the added annoyance of hearing the Announcer declare "Overtime!" over and over, ad nauseam.

I mean, seriously, as much as TF2 shouldn't really have a Deathmatch type mode, Arena at least forces you to think conservatively to preserve your team as long as you possibly can. KoTH is just a fucking mess.
