Making Tubes
I learned a very important lesson today.
Making internets is hard work.
I just spent half the day trying to figure out why something doesn’t work. Then while tracking down the problem, I found another problem. And then while figuring out that problem, I found another problem, and then another one. Then all of the sudden I look up and it’s past 3:00 and I have many problems, no solutions, and I have nothing to show for my day other than IM transcripts of me yelling OH GOOD GRAVY WTF I DO NOT UNDERSTAND. There are also IM transcripts of me wanting to throw various objects that are heavy and dense in nature and also emails that have a lot of questions and many curse words. Very unladylike and for this I apologize. But not really. It is one of those fake apologies. Sorry for interrupting you while you are youtubing, but I have a question. You know that kind of apology.
Sometimes when you are making tubes, stuff happens and you cannot make the tubes. The internets become broked. Tubes! Where are the tubes! I do not know! You become sad. You wonder why you even bother. You become, perhaps, a little desperate. A little ragey.
One problem I figured out had to do with the lack of a letter ‘s’. Something did not have an ‘s’. It caused carnage. I am surrounded by puppies and giant pandas and wombats, all headless. I see some innards laying about casually. So, everyone, please mind your s’s because they are very dangerous. They are deadly and violent. S, I hate you. I had a problem, now I have problems. See what you do?
That’s what happens when you look at things. You find problems. I never look at anything.
annie; BTW did U check your nums lock already?
If so, then the 3-part workaround for u’r hard internets problem:
1. Go home & OD on fig newtons.
2. Say magic words “Sim Sala Bim” to vex-out the “s’s”.
3. Count to infinity…..twice.
“S” can be troublesome. On the other hand, my friend Steve thinks the letter “A” is the most sexually exciting of all the letters.
Thoughts?
It’s time to call up Al Gore for advice on how to deal with the Internets that he invented.
D is right.
Albert Arnold Gore has two big, sexy ‘A’s prompting his new motto “Warm the ladies, not the globe!” A man like that will certainly stand by his product.
Man… That really puts the “S” in “Sidebar”. HA HA HA HA. Sniff.
Does that make sense? I was trying to make an inside joke, but I am bad at them.
Been Go-oleing the internets like CRAzy 2day to figure out why Annie’s computer something doesn’t do something …Hot links trail lead me to:

BINGOS!!! Rule #21 Cute Wombats apparently somehow involved.
teh internetz stays broked most times…or at least i wish i would. >.<!!!!
Renato: Yeah that’s a good lesson. It’s a lesson my coworkers are obviously following.
Jon: No I like Renato’s “just ignore it” solution. But if that doesn’t work I’ll do the sim sala bim stuff.
LilG: Hrm. I think “A
is very sexy, but “a” is not so sexy. It looks more like a turd, if you don’t mind me being crass. I think S is a good shape too. I also like P because it looks like it should fall over but it doesn’t.
Doretta: He has so moved on to saving the environment. He’s not returning my calls to his Al Gore House o’ Tech Supportz.
VK: Everytime I think of An Inconvenient Truth I keep thinking An Incontinent Truth and like it makes me grossed out but also laugh.
AaronB: Your inside joke humor is ballz.
Jon: Oh god. It’s too much cute!!!! CUTe!!!!!
Ian: Zrzly. It’d make me more produktiv if it were broked, but it would also mean I’d have to fix it too which is a totez pain in the azz.
