Names / Laptop withdrawal symptoms
Feb. 12th, 2009 12:42 pmYeah, I'm kinda copying
maderr with this, but her posts about names made me realise that I come across a lot of interesting names in my work as well, I just never did anything with it. So I decided to collect names as well. God knows I hate making them up on my own.
And, because some of them are simply awesome, I want to share. ^__^
( Here be names! )
In other news, I sent my laptop off to Acer to get my touchpad fixed. It's never worked right, so I've been trying to get my laptop picked up for repairs for three weeks.
And it's taken three weeks, because first Acer was supposed to call me back but they didn't, then I chased them down and they were supposed to send me an e-mail, which they did but it was the wrong one, then they called me to check some details, then they sent the e-mail I was supposed to get, and then I had to find the time during work ours to call UPS and have them pick up my laptop.
They finally picked it up today, and I am laptop-less for I don't know how long. We still have a computer, but be sure that my writing will be even more nonexistant for a while.
Oh, and one other thing: THIS
I know none of you will be able to read most of the site, but. That. Graphic! It's not that I mind two guys kissing (if any of you thought so, you obviously haven't been reading my LJ). It's not that my mind boggles at theinjustice of such an ugly fat guy kissing a hunk pairing. It's the fact that, well, how can I put this? Oh, yeah.
WHO IN THEIR FSCKING RIGHT MIND THOUGHT THAT REPRESENTING THE MANAGER/EMPLOYEE RELATIONSHIP IN ROMANTIC TERMS WOULD EVER, AND I MEAN EVER, BE APPROPRIATE? I AM NOT WHORING MYSELF OUT LIKE THAT, KTHXBAI, AND I NEVER WILL, AND BY ALL THE GODS IN ALL THE FSCKING PANTHEONS I HOPE NO ONE EVER WILL. I HOPE THIS EVENT DIES IN A FIRE.
And now imagine that image on a huge frickin' billboard staring at you as you step out of the train station, unsuspecting and eyes still blurry because it's frickin' too early o'clock in the morning. YEAH.
It's probably supposed to be funny or something, and I can guess at what word they've been using to sell this idea: ludiek. Which means something like funny, lighthearted, harmless and extremely bad taste. Funny how everyone always ignores that last one.
