I am trying to find a job and I was looking on this website. There was a job listed as "cardiovascular disease" that's it. That is what the job is called. Hehe I know it is a medical position of some sort but it still cracked me up. I could do THAT!

I just found a song I have barely remembered for years. When I looked for it, I found several forum posts from other people who also vaguely remembered it. The song's super power seems to be making gen X people vaguely remember it. Anyway, all I remembered was a guy having a dream about a sign that said "Aren't you supposed to be at work today?" and a girl who talked with her eyes and said, "Can you see what I'm saying?". The band was 2nu apparently, and the song is "This is Ponderous".

 
I was saving up for a new gaming computer. I was gonna play SWTOR, I was sure.

Then I bought a shit-ton of books with a good deal of that money. Borders closing sales sucked us in and I paid for her books as well...
Then on Amazon I saw Hellboy and BPRD trades were on sale, and I'd been waiting years to buy those, so I got about seven volumes of Hellboy and all but #3 and #6 of BPRD.

Maybe I'll play Left 4 Dead again by April 2012, when the taxes come back.

So, um, I mean absolutely no offense by this, but I have always assumed Tress was a woman based on the name until I saw "he" used twice without objection in the Irene thread. Not that it changes anything but the voice he's assigned in my head.
 
Just hopped into the shower for the first time since my second surgery, a little over a week ago. And I proceeded to fill my hand from my pump bottle of shampoo and run it over my recently shaved head...
 
One of our rats has gotten large and fat enough that he really just comes out of the cage to lie next to me and sleep.

But his neutered brothers are little idiots and so when he gets settled enough with being petting and has his eyes closed, they come over and lick my hand or sit on his back and face. Little assholes.

One of my college girlfriends had a rat. Made me want one because it acted like a tiny dog. I never knew they would that. I always wanted one after that. A rat, not another girlfriend. Those are way more trouble than they're worth.
 
I used to own rats. Best pets ever! Then my husband got a cat and I had to seprate them into their own room...and they became neglected be cause the cat would bite me after I held them.

I'd much prefer to have rats then this god damn cat.

If I didn't have a cat I would totes get a rat and name his ass Ratigan.

Or maybe I'd get a mouse. A BIG mouse.

Huh. I never knew this:

The original Japanese version of Street Fighter II introduced an African-American boxer named "Mike Bison" (abbreviated as "M. Bison") as a boss character, a parody of real-life boxer Mike Tyson. In order to avoid any likeness infringement lawsuit from Tyson, Capcom rotated the names of three of the boss characters for international versions of the game:[9] The final boss, called Vega in the Japanese version, was given the M. Bison name; the talon-wielding Spanish warrior known as Balrog in the Japanese version was renamed Vega; and the boxer became Balrog.
