Guilt can be a
beautiful thing. Sometimes life and ouchies can get the best of you,
so you take a break. And then you get used to having a break.
Then one day Cold Hard Reality IMs you and reminds you that long ago, in a
galaxy far, far away, you used to write a column. And the Cold Hard
Reality reminds you how you promised to write more often, and how he even
eased up on your contribution rate. Finally, CHR tosses in some sweet
words of flattery, as he knows what a shallow Lurker Girl you really are,
and clinches the deal.
Forgive me, Dark
Father, for I have sinned. It has been two months since my last foray
into the WWWBoard. My penance will harsh, though, for there is a
mountain of idiocy I am forced to wade through.
So here I go.
Let's see if this is like riding a bike.
So, what's the
deal with all the Fucking Newbies who, after a flurry of posting over four
or so days, feel the need to burden the rest of the VA community with some
plea for major life changing advice? Case in point: Jessica
Rabbit
I need help.
I've been
working in Canada for a company who I feel, has been taking advantage of my
nice nature. Not in a really bad way, just in a "you're a pain in the ass
and I don't particularly like working here" way.
My question is
this. I'm leaving the company in two months (as I am finally returning home
to Australia) and I want to know, should I;
A) Just continue
to do my job the way I have been - ie, going over and beyond the call of
duty; or
B) Come to work
and just do what I need to do to get by; or
C) Come to work
and just do the absolute minimum; or
D) You tell me?
I'm asking this
decision as after talking to my boss today, he's decided that perhaps they
shoudl revamp my role and throw a little more into it (which is basically
what I was going anyway) and pay the person an addition $20k per year. He's
really classy hey?
Ok, so give me
your advice, what would you do?
Why do people
feel the need to post this sort of stuff? Like anyone really CARES.
And you are trusting people who fashion their screennames from random
babblings from Jay Phat Buds to give you sage advice??!!
FUCKING NEWBIE
OF THE WEEK: M@KAL
i`m going right
out and say it "not gay Jay" if Jason is starting his production company and
kevin is doing sow well, how about a job, i live in Central America and it`s
basicly going to hell in a handbasket. Ever since i finaly understud how
movies we`re made I allways wanted to get in the "Biss", BUT, in central
America is an easier task to kill 8 German tourist than to ever work on a
movie, sow i hope you can get my perspective, and money is not a problem.
It`s the fuckin boulder in the road, the Dollar has only made my life sow 8
times more, yeah, 8 Q`s for 1 Dollar, Guatemalan Quetzales. O.k. the
frustration is disapated, i`ll stop my bitchin, can you hook me up or
what...I`ll work my ass off, even better if it`s on you`re flicks. como on
give me an answer don`t leave me hangin a`it, if the wrighting or grammar is
crappy sorry dude. i`m out of practice
This has to be a
fake post. But, because it made me laugh so, I'll pretend it's real.
Not only does this guy seem to have little regard for the summaries, he
manages to sound even more stupid than the usual stupid newbie poster.
I am not sure what all the currency references are all about, the plethora
of apostrophes, or the horrible spelling. Of course, the Old Timers
have to feed into the idiot and invoke the holy "Read the Summaries!" order.
I'm probably
going to get stoned (and not in a nice way) for saying this, but is anyone
else as annoyed by the constant barrage of polls? I hate these things.
Most of them are named after some variation of male genitalia and reveal
very little, if any, interesting information. And does anyone ever
read ALL the responses? I will venture to guess that besides the Reds
and a few "cool posters", no one reads ALL the responses, including the dude
who asked the question in the first place.
ASSHOLE OF THE
WEEK: Me.
For not being
around and missing cool things like the return of Kevin and a Mewes
appearance at the Stash. And seeing how we have PHOTOGRAPHIC EVIDENCE
that Jay is alive and well...
MEWESINGS FOR
THE WEEK:
Jay is
apparently alive and well... so 
GIRL WHO LURKS
CONFIDENTIAL:
Sources tell us
that the mysterious Lurker Girl actually came NOSE TO NOSE with a REAL LIVE
VIEW ASKEW RED!! Of course, this person had no idea who she was, as
she is a secretive lurker, but, rest assured, IT REALLY HAPPENED!
SCARY POST OF
THE WEEK: Witchbelle.
She wants a
Vulgar the Clown tattoo. So when people come up to her and ask her
about it, she can say "It's from that clown rape movie". Eww.
Just eww.
So that's about
all I see for the moment. I guess I am rusty. Or else I don't
know who to focus my attention on just yet.
I leave you with
one last question:
WHAT DID YOU
PEOPLE DO WITH CHURLISH? |
