Right, this happened quite a while ago when I was still living in the States but I still think it's relevant (I was 18, which I think explains my going along with her stupid bra suggestion). Although if I'm not meant to post old stories here let me know ( Read more... )

I should probably warn you that this is long. But there are lists! ... people like lists! ... right? D:?

I'm a student working with the only remaining dinosaur on Earth -- meaning the antiquated desktop sitting in the corner of my bedroom -- and am getting more than a little fed up with him, so I finally decided that I needed to get a decent laptop ( Read more... )

Happened last month, but I was reminded of it today.

Last Saturday, another fast food location actually managed to trump the Wendy's I've complained about here. I had been out at dealerships all morning and had to work at 2PM, so when we were heading home at 12~12:20ish, we stopped at McDonald's. I wanted to be home at 1:15ish so I'd have time to eat my lunch and finish getting ready (I was already ( Read more... )
