"War on terror" is just an interesting phrase in itself. The insinuation of performing this noble and honorable (heroic even) action... through using the word 'war'.
I say it should be even stronger - like "Reckless mayhem on terror".

I’ve wondered if the umbrella of the term “terror” covers the night-terrors my son has occasionally. Cheney, Rumsfeld, etc have not been round to my house once, despite several late night calls. Some war, ffs!

- I’d just like them to define the scope of “terror”.MrOneHundred

Terrorist all depends what end of the stick you're on, dunnit?
Some terrorists are freedom-fighters from their perspective.

Just sent off the Deployment Instructions for a Project I've been working on since September that has caused me to clock 70+ hour weeks usually. It's done a full week ahead of when it was due.
Of course now I can only think that since I was able to do this project on top of all my others, that I'm only going to get more work.
I can't wait until this thing is verified that it works the same on Production as our QA Servers. Because starting Friday at noon, this weekend is going to be absolutely ridiculous, quickly followed by a lot of fun equally ridiculous events through May.
Whew.

I just finished writing a big "rah-rah" e-mail to the people involved on the project thanking them for their time and the like copying the big whigs. Strangely enough, whenever I send these things out to my team ... they really think it's sincere. Despite most of them knowing how huge of an asshole I am.
I honestly didn't want to write anything, and still I don't think I should have to.
This is the only thing thing I should have to write.
"Congratulations everyone, you did your job and I didn't have to fire anyone in the process of reaching our agreed upon milestones contractually set with the client."
Instead I timeline the g-ddamn process with anecdotes and "heartfelt" thanks.
Honestly the only thing I'm looking forward to is the reply from my VP, where I'm sure he'll pull out a few lines and go, "You're so full of shit", and, "How hard were you laughing while writing this." The other ones who send off similar e-mails to me thanking me for keeping them in the loop as to who was involved and the effort ... I know they are doing the same thing I'm doing, haha.
- It's the illusion of care, flav. That's all that matters.********
- this is the most depressing thing I've ever read.killthefish
- I just killed myself********
- People don't want to say, but flav, you sound like a total fucking asshole. You need to back off the caffeine and step outside your self obsessed prick persona for a second.********
- outside your self obsessed prick persona for a second.********
- it's just a ruse, I think, the real flav has a heart of gold********

I would love to have an audio library with individual files of everyone saying:
"Hello, I'm __________ from Newstoday/QBN. And this is what I sound like."
That way, I would able to attach a realistic voice, accent... etc. with your posts.
(Instead of the Shrek-ish voice I by default attach to everyone).
