What the World Needs Now

Words. Strung together and stuff.
What the world needs now
is a new scripting language
like I need a hole in my head
Apologies to Cracker.
Rants and musings, without care for substance.

As a budding software developer/engineer/guy, I enjoy seeing humorous errors and warnings. Especially in shipped products. It makes interacting with software a less blah experience.

As seen in the parking lot of a Columbia parking lot, this resident is taking the Choose Civility initiative a little further.
I see the “normal” stickers and magnets on lots of vehicles around Howard County. Vehicles whose drivers have disrespectful, unempathetic, inconsiderate, and intolerant roadside manners.
This was refreshing.
For anyone whose ever worked a helpdesk or other IT support, this one is for you.
Thanks Andy!

I’ve never used Old Spice and I couldn’t tell you what it smells like. Have you seen the cross-promotional Jackie Moon commercials for Old Spice?
Everybody sweats, but most people would be surprised to know that they sweat 6 liters per day. Now I’m not familiar with the metric system or any other foreign language but [...]
“It’s like putting on a pair of pants,” commented the rather portly large-framed driver rather matter-of-factly to his passenger after stowing his briefcase and jacket in the back seat and climbing into his Mazda MX-5.
I had a hard time not laughing about that as I walked past them on the way to my car.
I’ve seen [...]
Is the screen on your iPod Nano too small to watch movies?
So that’s what popped up on the YouTube home page when I went to search for the actual video I was looking for… now on with it…
A half-dozen of us huddled around an iPhone at the diner last night and watched the following video. [...]
I am the proud recipient of an award. Though it stemmed from a email stemming from a blog entry comment, I was awarded the “Best Typo Ever in Life” award by Carol last week.
After years of writing silly things, I win an award. For a typo, of all things. I was speechless. I didn’t know [...]
I have this habit of writing things down that make me laugh. Quotes are a big thing for me, especially on car trips. A quote can bring back memories long since forgotten. The only problem is that I occasionally misplace my notes. So here’s a few quotes from the car ride up to New Hampshire [...]

Over the weekend I was described as “a binge drinking, promiscuous enabler.” Even there were no ugly people present, it reminded me of the t-shirt design to the right. The comment was made in good fun and I’m still chuckling about it a few days later. Does that mean that I enable promiscuity? Or are [...]
Word, homies. Because someone I know just finished the installment of Harry Potter. Butterbeer forties. Clever.
I do enjoy a good action flick. Spare me the plot, bring on the martial arts. Off to see Jason Statham and Jet Li bust it up in War.
I heard this on WRNR on the way back from Rivera’s. I nearly drove off the road I was laughing so hard. It’s a funky duo called Flight of the Conchords, who apparently have an HBO special these days (although I wouldn’t know since I don’t get HBO).
Don’t watch on your iPhone while driving.
I just got back from seeing The Bourne Ultimatum at Muvico. After a really quick pint of Bad Moon Porter we made it into the theater with fifteen minutes to spare. Or so we thought, since the first row was the only row that could fit our five. Without plot spoilers I can say that [...]
