Not so random life lesson

Wednesday, June 10th, 2009 by Dawn Summers

You can order shrimp from a sketchy Chinese restaurant. You can eat that shrimp and then proclaim victory five hours later because you didn’t get sick at all.
However.
You cannot return to the cafeteria refrigerator, where you stored the leftover of said shrimp, two days later and eat the remainder of the sketchy Chinese restaurant meal.
Well, you can.
But then you will learn, first hand, a lesson that I am graciously attempting to impart to you without the sweat, vomit and stomach ache.

Stupid pizza lady.

Because New York politics isn’t wacky enough

Tuesday, June 9th, 2009 by Dawn Summers

Dissident Democrats switch sides to hand GOP control of state Senate.

Democratic leaders were caught off guard as the Republicans and the two Democratic dissidents, Pedro Espada Jr. of the Bronx and Hiram Monserrate of Queens, moved to topple them, and at one point became so flustered that they turned out the lights in the Senate chamber to try to prevent Republicans from installing new leaders.

Asked by a reporter what was occurring, Senator Malcolm A. Smith, leader of the Senate Democrats who was huddled in the hall with his staff, responded, “I’m trying to find out right now.”

Really, dudes? Not enough we had our Governor hiring hookers and being forced to resign while trying to avoid indictment? Or that he got replaced by a BLACK GUY THAT NOBODY SAW COMING — (insert he didn’t even see himself BECAUSE HE’S BLIND! Joke)? OR THAT THE STATE IS ONE value meal away from bankruptcy and the Mayor of New York is trying to seize power forever, oh NO, that’s not enough for you turd rockets, you’ve got to switch parties in the middle of a vote, so now we have TWO house majority leaders and will have to revote on every piece of legislation that has gone through in the last month?

Morons. Why do we let Queens and Bronx even have representation in the Senate? Their only claims to fame are that they are better than Staten Island, like that’s even hard to do.

Not so random at work at 6 am thought

“McCafay” lattes should be called “McCrapay” lattes.
They taste bad, are only 19 cents cheaper than Starbucks, don’t come with the nifty cup sleeve and have this weird spout thingie covering the drink hole making it impossible for you to drink out of the drink hole, and COME ON it’s a DRINK HOLE.
So then you’ve all got to figure out that you need to pop the spout back (not push it in) and then you press it down in a groove on the lid and there’s your drink hole. But it’s 6 a.m. and you’re tired and still skeptical, so you just take the whole lid off and discover THEY ONLY FILL THE CUP 3/4 of the way! Making it MORE EXPENSIVE, per fluid ounce*, than the better tasting, sleeved, regular drink hole Starbucks latte.

Brand new Clareified feature…seriously, got to get the drudge red and blue alarms code, cause this is BIG.

You know what’s not awesome? Going to the gym with Jake and bringing everything you’ll need to shower and change your clothes at the gym, only to get there and realize that you managed to pack everything…except pants.
