Random Rants LV: The Joy of Ranting

[SS-18 ICBM]

Subway service to and from downtown from my home station is gone for the weekend.
Local bank branch is closed for a few months for construction.
It won't stop bloody raining all through this weekend.

Just a bunch of stupid inconveniences that taken together leave me feeling very irate.

bloody raining

The end times are at hand! Which, actually, might make you feel better, SS-18. You won't have to worry about the bank or subway anymore.

Spoiler :

Revelation 8:7 - The first angel sounded, and there followed hail and fire mingled with blood, and they were cast upon the earth: and the third part of trees was burnt up, and all green grass was burnt up.

You just need to go somewhere where you meet women (I don't go to language + dance classes without a reason),

Okay, I do that sometimes...

then you need to talk to them (that's why courses are great, because you just will),

Yeah, that one too, because courses...

and then you need to get your balls together and ask them if they'd like to do something at another time point.

Ah, this seems to be my problem...

Choxorn, all the advice you need about women is available at your local barber shop. However, just in case you are not in need of a haircut at the moment, I found a video for you wish sage barber advice. (advice starts around 0:45)


Link to video.

Nope, her flatmate just told me she's spending her weekend in another city, together with her boyfriend.
Goddammit !

So, the next problem: What am I going to do tonight?

The man is delusional. How can you headbang adequately without a full beard and long hair?

Man, I went to my favorite local burger shop last night, which happens to sell pints of their housemade pickles. Apparently, the person behind the counter misunderstood me and not only were there not any pints available to be purchased, but I also didn't get any pickles with my burger.

You can order a pint of something that's not beer?

 

[Takhisis]

If you specify it's not beer, yes.

At this place, yes. You can also buy real pints of beer to have with your burger. It's pretty solid.

as someone who loves pickles, this saddens me immensely

A pint of shrimps. Yeah, why not?

Just try *something*.
A coffee after whatever you're doing, dinner next day, party next Friday, whatever.
No need to be special there. Just try.

Her flatmate is something betweeen 5-10 years older than me, relatively austere, and oh, she's utterly nuts. If she's the last one on earth, then yes, but not before (okay, probably slightly before, but no, elsewise not really an option).

So...next Salsa session on Tuesday then...

I lost my ipod in a taxi in Yerevan on Tuesday evening.

It had all my photos from this trip on it.

I hadn't backed them up (was planning on doing it that exact night)

I didn't have the find my ipod thing turned on.

God dammit.

 

[bhsup]

Virote?! HI!

 

[Virote_Considon]

Hi Vr!

 

[Takhisis]

Señor Virote! You're alive!

 

[Virote_Considon]

Alive AND Well, Takhisis!

I am defeated

Start a new round then.

Guess work might again be the best option.
(slightly related: Got some new project dumped on me. Hell yeah, more of it )

...and even more. I can't...
A good depiction of my current work life would be a person in a lab coat bludgeoning me with a hard drive, saying "We have more data!!!".
Na, seriously. They do stuff, and don't organize who's going to deal with it.
When the other PhD student who's working on the same project is gone in a few months, then I'll have a dozen of people on my back, all wanting to get stuff done.
Not including the ones who'll bother our technician, who also has too much stuff to do.
I seriously hope that this B.sc. thesis I'm currently supervising is going to work out, else we'll be completely lost, if we don't get that pipeline running.
And we need another server. When the workload is high, sometimes half of the lab could need 2 per person, or 3. At the end of the week I'll need to occupy one for the next 2-3 weeks, not including that last batch of work.
And we have only 3 servers atm.
*gah*
Work isn't fun.
