No, it's rather called cynism...

Its amazing how some thread can get off topic.

Really? http://dictionary.reference.com/search?q=cynicism I don't think that applies to what I said... Though the deffenition of sarcasm doesn't exactly fit either.... http://dictionary.reference.com/search?q=sarcasm

 

Wow, now we're debating grammar! What'd this thread even start out as?

Wow, now we're debating grammar!

Welcome to the ways of the BEAK and BREAK.

Jobs, Tofu. And Mad is correct.

Wow, now we're debating grammar!

Welcome to the ways of the BEAK and BREAK.

 

BEAK I know... What's BREAK? And shouldn't both of those acronyms include periods after each letter, being acronyms and what not?

Actually, no. These particular acronyms are restricted offical copyrights and property of the BEAK Imperium & Scathane Industries, Inc.

 

BREAK are the powers Scath has. You see, Scath is the founder of the BEAK Imperium, but not it's CEO. Regardless, unlike most heads of state, Scathane actually does have some powers--that's where the BREAK powers come in. BREAK stands for Being Really Emperor-like And Kill. So Scath has the power to BREAK, mostly spammers and non-BEAKs. You see why I'm merely Imperator (a military-styled title)? Scath is Emperor.

 

Now do you understand?

Moreover, I have the power to edit OPP...

Yes... So back on topic... I'm currently working here... unloading babies like this one... We've got containers coming in from all around the world... China, the States, India, Indonesia, Turkey, Taiwan and Singapore... If all goes well, this baby will dock at the port of Rotterdam, April 16th...

 

...she can carry roughly 8,500 Twenty Equivalent Unit... 2 of those TEU - or 20' containers if you like - are for my client... I hope I can find them...

 

Fortunately, each container has a unique number world wide...

Dude, that's awesome! Do you lift the units on your back yourself, or do you have a donkey help you?

...So was that just a really fancy way of saying that you help to load very heavy crates onto ships for a major shipping company?

Back to topic.

 

George Mason said yes, they would accept me as both student and aide... :D ...on one condition. They require that my previous university send them a transcript. Okay, I', cool with that since that's part of the normal procedure--oh, wait, that's right, my previous university is full of assholes! Either they're really delied at the previous university (which I doubt), or they're playing the "let's mess up his life" routine because of the recent string of stupidity/false accusations! Damn those bastards! Damn them!!! If they don't send George Mason my transcript like I asked them to more than three weeks ago, they'll pay! THEY WILL PAY!

 

*clears throat* Ahem... Sorry about that.

What you need to do is go to the last place (the one full of assholes) and stand in their office while they print, stamp/seal the transcript. Then you watch them put it in the envelope, address it, put the stamp on and drop it in the mail. Make sure you do all of this in the morning, before the mailman comes. Then you stick around until the mail is picked up. Be as much of an ass as it takes to get things done.

 

BTW: Congrats on George Mason.

The assholes there don't like me. And also, due to the ensuing situation (that concerns the police), I'm am trying to avoid the old place as much as possible. If anything, I have proof that I requested the transcripts long ago and can simply sue them.

That could work. I don't like the idea though. I dislike lawyers.

Yeah, I don't much care for lawyers myself, but my attorney seems to be the only legal person on my side right now.

And that's only because you are paying him to be.

Thanks for putting the world in perspective, Mitth. Makes me feel a hell of a lot better.

 

Oh, thanks for the congrats on Mason!

Hey now, not all lawyers are complete jerks. I should know, I live in a college town with a major law school. Most of the law students don't know enough to be jerks yet; some of the teachers are, but not all. To be honest, being around a law school has restored some of my faith in lawyers (though not in the system).

My uncle is a lawyer--well, I take that back, he's an ex-lawyer, and he's not a jerk. It's not that I have anything against all lawyers, just most everyone who has anything to do with the system. The system rankles me and now with the police breathing down my neck, telling me I can't post on my blog, and being just all-around pricks I...I...!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

They told you you couldn't post on your blog?????

Damned bastards. Yeah. I would give the details, but I'm afraid the ears have walls...I mean, the walls have ears (I've always screwed that up)--the damned ex-girlfriend and her frat friends.
