Things That Are Bothering You, Got You All Hibbeldy-Jibbeldy, or just downright pissed, RIGHT NOW!

I dress as patrick bateman every year. Which mainly consists of me carrying around a cigar and making American Psycho quotes.

I'm going as Ron burgundy. Just keeping my stache.

Arguing about anything is pointless. Generally my arguments devolve into this

Other person: X
Me: well x is wrong because of y
Other person: well actually x
Me: wait what? But I just said x is wrong because y
Other person: well y is wrong because of x
Me: (tries to reiterate in different terms how x is wrong because of y)
Other person: well y is wrong because x

At some point I give up. But it usually takes a few tries. It's like your argument is never actually acknowledged and you're just talking to a parrot.

I wonder if law school will teach you how to argue properly. The only time I convince somebody of something is if they were ambivalent of something to begin with.

I am pretty self conscious of this so I always try to keep an open mind even if somebody is arguing 1 + 1 = 3 because you never know if in some bizzaro land 1 + 1 actually is 3. A lot of times tho my ego gets in the way and I have a tendency to be blinded by my own assumptions but I try and suppress this as much as possible.

I'd go as StephenHero but people around here would find it "offensive" and in "poor taste".

I have no idea as to why this childish and trivial tripe enrages me.... but it makes we want to turn into the Hulk and rage.

New office policy implemented today. This piles on the fact that the supply closets in the hallways are locked--- with effing huge pad locks. The mail machine is locked. Meaning if It now takes me 10 mins to look up the combinations, even if all I want is a goddamn post-it note. We must now list the account number on the letter so a 46 CENT STAMP can be charged and keep a log of all mail we send and submit for reconciling each month.

Of course the office manager who implemented this, will not actually do anything and will instead tell others it is their responsibility. Therefore when confronted as to why something wasn't done, she can then say, it wasn't my job. I will then tell her that as the office manager, EVERYTHING IS YOUR ******* JOB YOU ******* SPECIAL FLOWER MILLENNIAL YOU ARE THE OFFICE MANAGER.

I left a pot of beans and rice on the counter when I left for work this morning. Safe to keep or should I toss? I can't decide.

What in the **** does this have to do with her being young? I've seen very old officers and supply sergeants implement the same kind of asinine policies, you ****.

Bought 2 boxes of candy bars to pass out and it's pouring out. Only have handed out 2 so far.

 

[LawrenceMD]

my halloween costume is backfiring. I was standing behind my screen door and kids got halfway to my door, freaked out, and turned back to their parents.

i've given away no candy yet.

One mother yelled: sorry she's afraid, but GO RED SOX!
