Yet Another You Can Be Defined (Version A Type)

Huffington Post has a post, probably just reblogged from elsewhere, 16 Signs You’re a Little Type A wherein they reenforce that everyone can fit into a box. Much like a horoscope one can easily read into these diagnoses. Rather than take them at face value I decided to have a little fun with them.

Waiting in long lines kills you a little bit inside.
I don’t wait in lines, there are not many events or items that warrant waiting in a line.

You’ve been described as a perfectionist, overachiever, workaholic or all of the above.
Overacheiver only because the competition sucks

You bite your nails or grind your teeth.
I used but it makes your fingers look gross so I stopped because I have discipline.

You have a serious phobia of wasting time.
Time isn’t wasted when you’re getting wasted.

You’re highly conscientious.
Don’t think that because I understand I care

You’ve always been a bit of a catastrophist.
I plan for the worst and welcome the end of humanity.

You frequently talk over and interrupt people.
Most people don’t have anything good to say, I just don’t like motherfuckers, I haven’t meet too many motherfuckers I like.

You have a hard time falling asleep at night.
Nothing that a stiff drink can’t help

People can’t keep up with you — in conversation or on the sidewalk.
I’m usually three steps ahead of you in converstaion I skip the irreveleant details b/c you SHOULD be able to fill them in but you often cannot.

You put more energy into your career than your relationships
I learned to how to properly manage my time long ago.

Relaxing can be hard work for you.
NOPE

You have a low tolerance for incompetence.
Results or GTFO

You’d be lost without your to-do list.
You’d be lost with my to-do list.

At work, everything is urgent.
Nope, I set my priorities.

You’re sensitive to stress.
Stress free, if no one is going to die then it’s not that important.

You make it happen.
Yep, I get shit done.

The Insane Clown Posse Sues the FBI

The FBI listed the Juggalos, a source of great fascination for the Common Folk, as gang for no solid reason. The Insane Clown Posse on behalf of their fans have sued the FBI.
Fucking lawsuits how do they work?

Popular Doesn’t Mean Good

Spotify suggested this today:

Straight up now tell me do I really want to oppress forever.

Straight up now tell me do I really want to oppress forever.

Hey Spotify,

Apartheid was popular when I was in high school as well, it doesn’t mean I want to relive it.

Thanks,

How to Lose an Easy Sale

Anyone who knows me, knows that I complain often and loudly about the fact that I live in the capitol of the richest and most powerful nation in the world yet I have to settle for shitty DSL with no option for FiOS or a cable modem. While I understand that FiOS involves infrastructure changes, I can’t say the same for the much hated Comcast (my local cable monopoly) Comcast simply doesn’t want to string a cable to my building. Despite my sole shitty option, I on a regular basis get ads for FiOS and Comcast Business services.

This week I got a letter in the mail touting Comcast Business Services I went to the website http://www.cant-wait.com/ to find out more info and for a mere $109.95 a month I can get 50/10mbps which is literally more than 10 times faster than my current connection. My hope is that if I’m willing to pay for business level Comcast they might be motivated to add me as a customer. So I filled out a form on the site and got an email letting me know that I would be contacted by a rep within a few hours. This is who the rep reached out to me (name redacted)

Did you need services??

Technical Support: If you are having trouble with your service please contact 1-800-391-3000 for 24/7 assistance.

I’m contacting you for a service that runs over $100 a month and your response looks like something that I’d expect to see on Yahoo! Answers. That’s a pretty solid way to ensure all of the complaints about your shitty customer service are likely true.

Yep this is all I get.

Common Folk Heroes of the Week: U.S. Congress!

AP0901060255551-e1323728513880

Fucking Bitch Ass Scabs

The almighty Congress. Do they do it for the common folk? No. Should we have ever really thought they did? No. But they win heroes of the week for reaffirming my belief in evil (not in a supernatural way, I don’t believe in religion beyond that, but in a very real way). Sometimes i grow soft and optimistic, I start to believe governing bodies really do have the people’s best interest in mind. Egad, I was starting to get such good vibes I almost decided to grow dreads! Thank you Congress for setting me straight again and bringing me back home to cynicism and defeatism.

Secretly, I think Rage Against The Machine is actually the illuminati and they craft and concoct these schemes to boost their sales. Daaaamn you, Zach de la Rocha.
