Randome Shite

-My rally cry is officially "Time to get serious!". Well, it's my brother's official rally cry and I'm stealing it. He doesn't have to know. Any MegaMan gamer should know that's what Mega said in one game or another right before he kicked the bucket. I always loved hearing him scream that out right before he got blasted to smithereens on a bed of spikes. Was that supposed to make you buckle down and game with more intensity? Hearing that usually gave me a fit of the giggles, so Mega was basically immobile long enough for some robotic bad guy to kick the shit out of him.

-My co-workers have problems. Funny problems, but problems nonetheless. One is into street racing and openly admits to stealing cars and car parts. Another comes in late because of AA meetings, yet brags about getting wasted. Today? at the end of the shift they were all gathered around the register while one read a sex book ALOUD. With a few customers still in the store. I think I've hit upon the reason why I've yet to find another job: being around these people makes me feel sane.

-My brother randomly quotes Gladiator. "Are you not entertained?!?!" So cute.

-My right eye twitches periodically in a way that reminds me forcibly of the way it behaved during my first finals week, freshman year. I would say it's a sign that I'm disgustingly stressed, except that I seem so...OKAY with everything. Maybe that's what's wrong. I'm supressing everything so very well.

-Time both flies and goes by extremely slowly when you're having fun. The saying should be changed to "Time has no meaning when you're having fun". Yeah. I'm a fucking genius.

My brother's right eye started twitching while he was working for Radio Shack, too.

I think it's a virus inflicted to weed the sane out of Retail slavedom.

I think that the greatest of your many assets is your ability to mantain a sense of humor regardless of the circumstance. No matter how bad things seem to go for you, I can always see some humor, be it only dark, in your commentary upon it. It's a wonderful thing.

Hee! I read that reply at Le Shack and almost spit my seltzer all over the PC monitor.

Good show!

Dude, you know how it goes. We're two peas in a straitjacket-like pod called life: you either laugh at it or cry. And crying is for pansies! Bring on the giggles and cynical laughter.

Exactly! Bring on the titters! And the sniggers! And other synonyms for "mirth" that sound vaguely naughty!
