Where is racketboy the owner of this site? I almost never see him post?
Also there was a guy called LordOfDuct, he disappeared?



@Mr.Popo

If I was well payed tech. guy I will not be living in a 1 bedroom apartment, thats the opposite of why I want to be well paid.

@AlienJesus

I am aware of the prices in London. I know of a studio apartment with 1 bathroom and 1 kitchen, the rent was $2,386 per week. It was like 3 minute walk from Harrods though...

I'm getting to the point where I just can't be in the same 10 feet as the one co-worker I hate. Ugh. Like, she's sitting behind me and eating something crunchy and every time she reaches into the bag and the bag crinkles then she takes a bite and I hear that crunch my skin crawls. Then she opens her mouth to talk to officers and I want to punch her.

Part of me wants to complain about the "unapproved food on the floor" (we're technically only allowed hard candy, but no one follows that rule) but I'm not that petty. Trying to be the bigger man and just suffer in silence.

The wonderful thing about humans is we have figured out ways to enjoy chemicals that were created by plants to keep us away from them. Also see capsaicin.

I believe he's walking the earth like in Kung-Fu.

9 hours down, 7 to go. Wooooooooooooo.

I'm seriously looking forward to Little Caesar's tomorrow, how sad is that? I'm a fat, fat man I swear :D I gotta get back in the gym though, I've gained way too much weight. Still not back at my top end, but waaaaaaaaay higher than my lowest was. About halfway between the two. And I do things like order bacon wrapped pizza, so yeah.

Ok yeah Travolta's behavior was weird, but the rest of the article made me think of this Polandball comic...

They are if your friends clicked on info about that stuff. It isn't based only what you talk about or have in your profile--it is an amalgamation of many things, including national/regional trends. Bottom line: "trending" on your feed does not equal actual "trending" topics outside of your particular network.

You've talked on this very site about classical music, ballroom dancing, marketing, advertising, etc.

They aren't direct links to those 3 things, but they are all in the same arena.

All 3 of those make complete sense to me that they would be in your trending.
