hypothetically, if some foreign country were to take over the United States they wouldn't need to kill a single person. from what i understand they just need to capture the IRS building, keep the tax rate the same, rake in trillions in Revenue, and be done with it. if this were to happen, the people probably wouldn't know the fucking difference anyhow as long as it appeared 'Internal' to us. thus making me question, perhaps we are already captured and the IRS actually is a foreign entity consisting of powerful international bankers in cahoots with corrupt members of the US government (past or present)? but of course, i am just being hypothetical..

So my friend that I complained about last time for not paying me and avoiding me finally came through and added extra coins in the pot. He didn't have to do that. It was cool to see him have a heart so he is completely exonerated.
The end.

Man, like I don't get exposed to the insanity of politicians in my country everyday, whenever I check to see what's happening in the US politics I see that the level of insanity is not a bit less there.
Was it always like this for humanity or are we really nearing the end of times?
Then I remember people like Nero who burned Rome, like Adolf the fascist, Like Alexander the war monger, like Bush the whatever, like Erdogan the fake sultan.
Now Trump or Hillary...
I guess there is an ever existing human stupidity for power and control.Why am I not even slightly interested in asserting control or power over others? Is it normal? Am I too lazy? It's so tiring even to watch and follow what these people do for their own glory. What a life they have. What a stupid life. I just want to plant some tomatoes in my yard for the summer.

Oh god.
I used to work with this bloke. Chubby, very middle class British, a bit pompous, total mommy's boy still pulling vital life-fuel out of all that talk about being a special child, and still really high on those fumes. Total egocentric little Fauntleroy, did a doctorate, so now insists on being called 'doctor' even though he spends his life asking members of the public what their favourite brand of yoghurt is in a room with dry croissants and cheap filter coffee.
Anyway, he's essentially a nice bloke, but in a very kind and gentle way he's totally full of himself and utterly fucking oblivious to everything. Too dumb to ever realise he ain't a tenth as smart as the person he likes to think he is. A smiling hapless buffoon. You get the picture. Nice, but a bumbling halfwit and a liability.
So I'm sat at a train station this morning trying to assemble a presentation I didn't do yesterday, which I'm due to deliver in twenty minutes. Busy train station, I've got a coffee on the floor below my seat, an apple laptop (one of those super thin ones hey do, whatever those are called) on my lap, and I'm eating a breakfast bagel. I'm All fucking hunched up and cranky because it's early and I haven't had coffee or breakfast and I'm late, and I'm all cramped up like an old tramp with withered arthritic limbs, and the crowds of commuters are swarming past, and suddenly one of them, a fat one in a sweater that is way too small for a fat person, aims directly for me, and I can tell by the bright white upside down star-trek badge shaped smile nestled inside a deeply unfashionable dad style 80's beard that it's Doctor Yoghurt, and he's really pleased to see me after many months since I left the company. "HELLO YOO!" His Star Trek badge mouth boomed as he just came directly into my space at 30mph like I'm just there to stop fat people hitting the glass... "CHRIST, WATCH THE COFFEE" I yell, followed by "FUCK" as he kicks it all over AND INTO my open laptop bag lying under my seat. "OH SORRY ABOUT THAT HOW ARE YOU? IT'S BEEN AGES!" He booms as he attempts to rectify the damage by flapping his doctor's arms around mid-air, which hit the top of my screen and send this fucking laptop on my lap, sliding like a toboggan down my legs, off my feet, onto the back of the screen-half and skating across the floor to get wedged under the edge of a construction masking board opposite me.
"OH SORRY ABOUT THAT" his big fucking face said, as I put all my shit next to me and run to retrieve the laptop.
When I got back my breakfast bagel had rolled off my coat, onto the floor, into the pool of coffee.
"SO HOW ARE YOU?" He asked again, smiling. Total devastation. Utter and complete. No presentation, no coffee, no breakfast, a borrowed company laptop irrevocably damaged.
Fuck.
I hate meeting that bloke.

Bought 2 tickets to San Diego, bank called and thought it could be fraud...I told them it was me but they went on to say "we declined the charge, just incase."
So I decided to book the tickets again, but this time with the airline.
Next day I see the first set of tickets went through and I was charged. Told my bank and they said they'd stop payment and not to worry.
Now I"m getting emails from the first airline that they are going to sue me if I don't pay.
(All of this because the guy on the phone from my bank said they were declined incase of fraudulent activity)
: /
- wtf kind of airline would sue you instead of giving the flight up?monospaced
- mono-I guess they have a "no cancelation" in their T&C's..cbass99
- your cc company will sort hem out.
no worriesimbecile - *themimbecile
- its going to cost them the amount of the flight plus more to sue.yurimon
- yeah, and they're located in Spain. Thanks for making me feel better about it..cbass99

Jury form asks, "Do you have any physical or mental disability that would interfere with or prevent you from serving as a juror?"

How do I tell a colleague NOT to put bells and whistles (literally) on their resume, gently. C'MON!
So many poorly designed resumes out there... hurts my brain.
- tell them the truth, they won't be offended, they're the one looking for workmonospaced
- what do you think a good designed resume is post a pic. just curious.yurimon
- you're right mono. i don't think this person will be offended, and if they are, either way it'll be "good" for them.bklyndroobeki
- its only a question if their success is tied to the design. just tell them which types of resumes get more success n rest is their problem.yurimon
- post the successful design resume on here for me to confirm if you are correct.yurimon
- yuri,
1. Find a clean but unique typeface that speaks to you (see fonts you want 201-) 2. Set up an really nice grid in InDesign (you can break the rules if yobklyndroobeki - you know what you're doing.)
3. Bring your personality to it -- though keep it simple.bklyndroobeki - i want to see a literal bell and/or whistle adorned résumé. I feel like it would garner attention.imbecile
- @yuri, a well-designed resume is one that puts legibility above all elsemonospaced
- I don't want to point out any specific individual but look @ this search https://www.google.c…bklyndroobeki
- ugh! just google: "ui designer resume"bklyndroobeki
- A CV/resume is designed to present information. The optimum design was achieved with typewriters. Anything more than selecting a favoured typeface is waste.Muncher
- your information has been approved.yurimon
