President of your heart, baby!
Search my blog!
Get off my lawn! (Formerly "Greetings, hello, and welcome!") Ordinarily this area is devoted to "a few words about me", but I am 25 (formerly 24) years old and I did not get this far by not telling people to get off my lawn (formerly "by telling people about myself"). Instead, you can go on an exciting voyage of non-self-discovery (unless you're myself - and I know I am!) by reading my posts. They date back to February of 2004 - that's more than a shit-ton (formerly three) years of quality!
I love blogging. I love this joint. And just as I predicted, this blog was ten gallons of fun in a one gallon jug. Then the jug split and burst, forcing me to find another one, and since I was unable to find a suitable replacement, I have a bunch of cups sitting around, full of fun. And one of the cups is full of scorpions! So if you decide to have a look around, watch your step.
Ladies and gentlemen, I present: Drawing Blog v2.0. (It has nothing to do with drawing, please stop sending me angry e-mails about that.)
Multiple hours of mine that have been finest (at special request):
For the love of God, and all that is holy: Contact Me!

Titles Are For Losers. Gay Losers.
I've had to watch a bunch of training videos on account of a new job (and by "new" I mean "three months old"), and apparently - this is news to me - even the mentally disabled should be treated with respect. I know how crazy that sounds, but I guess it's true. And judging by the eight or ten hours of videos I've seen, this is news to everybody. I imagine that if one were to take the time to count the number of instances of the word "respect" in these dozen movies, one's head would explode because of the cranial bomb secretly placed there. It's that many.
I GET IT. PEOPLE DESERVE RESPECT.
I wish the movies had bothered conveying any kind of useful skills (though of course I wouldn't have needed them even then, as I not only excel but literally define excellence in everything I do. Which means, basically, that in most fields "excellence" is defined as "marginal competence or familiarity", so people in all those fields you can totally feel good about yourselves.) instead of harping on something that a person would have to exhibit as a core belief before even getting around to watching the movies. For instance, juggling. How cool is juggling? The answer may surprise you!*
Also: Oafy doesn't seem to have ever realized that she is not a kitten, which is *adorable*. Also she likes snuggling and bellyrubs. Aww. So adorable.
*Answer is not surprising. Answer is nine.

Oh, trust me. If it is anything, gotten is what it is. |  |

I don't think you get it. |  |

But still, now you know how to handle yourself if a mentally disabled person needs you to fix his TV.
But you've always known what to do in that situation. It's why you've been carrying that hammer around for the past eleven years. |  |

Actually, it's about working with mentally disabled people. And while I realize that that's a stickier situation on account of they don't really know how to stick up for themselves, still it's absurd. |  |

Ah yes, customer service videos. Where the videos are all about being nice, but have no useful information about your company, product or how to fix it if the customer is unhappy. Because, really, if you make them happy enough, they won't care that their product is horrible.
Or something. Which is why I am no longer (for now anyway) in the customer service industry. |  |
