back in my glory days at the prestigious University at Albany I used to spend some broke Friday and Saturday nights at the library trying to pick up Asian chicks. Most didn't speak hardly any English, or pretended not to. Even their textbooks were written in Korean, Chinese, whatever. 'Merikuh...used like a cheap whore by progressive races of people since forever. I was unsuccessful after a few tries so I just gave up.

    A guy just came to our office and gave a presentation. At the end of his presentation, he showed us a video. He left the white arrow computer cursor right in the middle of the screen.

    not sure, probably some university bullshit trying to inflate their number of international students. plus they pay out of state fees I'm sure. the amount of hello kitty Iphone cases I see every day is truly astounding

    Re: What irritates you?

    This is NOT irritating. There was a "what makes you happy" thread but I can't find it buried. Some of you may recall the things I went through two or three years ago with a cousin's fiance. Well, I'm proud to announce that they're officially done. While they had a couple of troubling periods, it's over now. I am so glad that he can begin living HIS life, not hers, and so glad that he's finally moving on. Supposedly the breakup is mutual. The guy has come a long way over the past few years, getting sober, a great job, and finally casting off this succubus to the pits of hell where she belongs. This is a glorious day.

    Yeah. I couldn't find it and I didn't want to top the thread that I made addressing just some of the bullshit myself and my family had been through with her.

    Kind of amazing the changes that sobriety can bring.

    I'm editing this corporate policy and it is riddled with typos, grammatical errors and formatting inconsistencies. I'm talking about different fonts and font sizes within the same freaking sentence. Really?

    Irritated really isn't the word, but it is a part of what I'm feeling so I'll use this thread to vent: my mom's cancer. That is what is irritating me right now, among many other emotions. She just had two surgeries last week, and about 20 minutes ago I found out the doctors now need to take her eye out as well. This is all so hard right now, I can't even imagine how this feels for my mom.

    I called someone I've known for at least 8 years now and this is how the beginning went:

    Me: Hey Jan, It's Elizabeth *LastName*
    Jan: Who?
    Me: Elizabeth *LastName*
    -silence-
    Jan: Oh, Liz! I was confused when you said Elizabeth.


    My damn name is Elizabeth and that's what I've always referred to myself as, you shouldn't have been confused!

    Also, my name tag at work says Elizabeth yet customers come up and say "How's it going Liz/Lizzie/Beth?" etc...

    In a similar note, most people call me Mandy.
    I don't find this irritating, but more mind-boggling, but I run into confused people all the time that are expecting an "Amanda" but I answer as Mandy or expecting "Mandy" but get an Amanda - like I wasn't aware the people that don't realize Mandy is a nickname for Amanda.

    For example, when I send formal letters at work, I use Amanda M Last name.
    But, I answer my work phone with "Hi, this is Mandy." So many times, the response will be "Can I speak with Amanda" or "Is this Amanda," etc.
    Is it really that hard to figure out?

    Years ago, at my first job out of college, I had my Warehouse tickets shipped to work (due to signature required) and the receptionist almost rejected them b/c they came to "Mandy Last Name" (now that I think about it, apparently at that job I went by Amanda).

    Re: What irritates you?

    Training people. Especially training my replacement. I leave my job in two weeks and I have no desire or motivation to be here anymore and now I have to train the dude that's taking over for me. All I want to do the next two weeks is slack off and not give a single fuck.
