Shuttlecock! Part XVIII - Like the top of an airborne birdie's head

I'd rather talk about it through PM.

How many people on this site actually have a job or are in school? I'm convinced there's a larger unemployed population than one would think.

What makes you say this?

I have no idea. Just thinking out loud.

Gotcha.

I can relate to that. I've been avoiding homework for nearly three years on this site.

Can I amend my agreement of Irvine's post with I've been avoiding studying/homework, too? Heh.

I love Jon Stewart's take on the mad dash on Tax Day.

Paraphrasing, of course: "I know! Why don't we move tax day to April 16, this way people won't be filing their returns at the last minute? (Unless...I've fundamentally misunderstood human nature—what could go wrong?)"

Sometimes I stop and think about how much I could have accomplished without Interference. I wonder whether I could be something more, I could have gotten more money for college, better grades, won some awards, gone somewhere farther in my life.

Then someone makes a post that I disagree with.

Interference: Destroying lives since 1999...

My boss doesn't mind if I mess around online at work, because she knows the stuff I need to do gets done.

It's been quiet lately, so I've been online more. things are going to pick up very soon, though, so we'll see how much time I get to goof off for the next few months.

 

[elevated_u2_fan]

sounds like a cool boss...

 

[Irvine511]

most of my job involves writing, so i'm always on the computer, i always have several things open at once, and it only takes but a minute to find someone, somewhere on this site who's wrong, and to let them know just how wrong they are.

She really is. I've been spending more time than normal online at work. Yes, I feel guilty about it.

 

[elevated_u2_fan]

I don't

Knock it off.

Also, elfa, a message from NSW:

"Doves album = excellent. Neko Case album = very good. Seeing both in concert soon."

could you tell him "NSW = lucky bastard"

 

[impy13]

If you replace "lucky" with "Jew," relay the same message for me.

 

[corianderstem]

I need to start going to more concerts. When they come around, I whine that it's too late, it's a weeknight, and I'm so lazy. Then when I don't go, I wish I had.

Mind you, this is only for certain bands. I'm not going to whine about missing The Jonas Brothers.

I definitely want to keep my eyes out for Elbow coming through town - I really want to see them.

 

[LarryMullen's POPAngel]

I need to start reading more books, luckily I have one easy class next semester and won't feel guilty for reading for fun.

I also would love to go to more concerts, but class and money both interfere.

It's weird, I can't really remember life before I started going back to school, but can't wait until I'm done (and even after I graduate from this school I still might continue on, depending.)

So I check this page periodically in hopes of a ticket drop since it's sold out. An hour ago it let me purchase just one for some reason. So I snagged it hoping to get another later. I see now why people get all crazy for these Shuttlecock ticket drops.

 

[corianderstem]

Yay, my fanclub CD came today! It's very spiffy.
