I impressed a girl from Kazakhstan with my knowledge about her country, which, of course, comes solely from Borat skits.

I impressed a girl by knowing what causes earthquakes.
It didn't make me really smile, since I was more perplexed than pleased. It challenged my assumption that it was general knowledge.(Crust, Mantle, Current, Tectonic Plates, Fault Lines, Ring of Fire etc.)
She was an acedemically gifted Senior Highschool student, so she's not ingorant or anything. I guess it just goes back to the saying:
"I know what I happen to know."
If it's not Isuzu-chan Mii~
Somebody doesn't know what causes them? Although in yesterday's newspaper there was a letter from somebody suspecting the Haiti earthquake had been manmade...
i'm on the phone w\ this guy for work and he's forgotten about me on hold.... I can't just hang up because I don't have his name or number and i need him to change something in our program.
He left me on speakerphone and he's bullshitting w\ people in some kind of thick arab accent. *sigh*
oh... he came back. after leaving me on speakerphone hold for about 10 minutes.
And that made you smile?Originally Posted by itadakimasu

Peace.
Yeah I figured he meant to post that in the bitching thread. I hate being put on hold.Originally Posted by fahoumh

So do I but sometimes I like to have fun with it. One time I started singing the lyrics to the muzak they were playing and I kept on for a bit after the operator took me off hold...I'm sure she heard, hahaha.Originally Posted by Animeniax
Getting this for my birthday from my family really did it for me today:

This game was easily one of my favourites. It was actually the main reason I picked up a PS2.
Whoooo ton of snow in the Northeast, so my Uni's closed.
Predicted to be 12 to 18 inches of snow. It's kinda sad, my cousin lives in Georgia and they close schools down when they get like 1 inch, but we need about a foot up here.
I showed up at the local theatre a few minutes ago. I asked what time opera tickets went on sale, and the lady at the counter said "in about half an hour." I thanked her and turned around. As I walked away she cried out in a desperate tone, "you're coming back, right!?"
Something about this makes me smile.

It's snowing here in Augusta, GA, which is very rare.
Looks like its going to end overnight, sadly.

Snow ending
Steady snow will taper off and end by the overnight hours. Cloudy with temperatures steady in the low 30s. Winds N at 5 to 10 mph. Additional snowfall of 1 to 2 inches through 1am.
edit. Someone made a youtube vid.
Haha, "global warming my ass" indeed, it hadn't snowed here in december for years either, it always started in like late januari, but now it has been snowing almost constantly since december here.
White Christmas and all

That's the danger of beautiful occasions like these. People will say "global warming my ass, it's snowing in Georgia!" The issue with global warming is that it causes adverse weather due to disruptions in the weather systems of the world. Snow in Georgia doesn't disprove global warming, it is evidence of it.

I calculated the amortization on my car loan, and thanks to a few hefty payments I've made when I had the money, I'm making out rather well. I've shaved about a year and a half on the term of my loan (and with it the interest!).
breakfast in bed FTW! (eggs+ham, waffles, bacon, orange juice, black tea ) WOOOT
I've never understood the joy of breakfast in bed. Crumbs and syrup everywhere, and I hate sleeping in filthy conditions.

The fact that I made this post from a DSi.
is the browser faster than the opera for normal ds? because that one was ridiculously slow..
Number of works of fiction that made me shed at least one tear: 3Thou seeketh soul power, dost thou not?TOX: 33524385841A92B08787EEBEBA2DB51ED293C4F15A2E292F3F C92165E82388281433A77EA8FE
I can't make the comparison because I never had the browser on my DS Fat. It is still Opera based.
It's slow, but that's because it doesn't have a lot of memory. Gotwoot and such works fine, but sites with lots of stuff all over like yahoo usually crash. You have to be patient. I'd say it is like having a 256k dialup connection.
