So I have a playful discourse with someone in the office who laments that she doesn't have anything in her inbox. So I drew a picture of a dam and put it in there to counter my "I don't give a damn" attitude.

Then I drew a picture of a rat's ass and put it in there.

If my work environment was less restrictive (and I knew she wouldn't be offended), I would consider drawing a flying fuck, but I think that will just have to stay in my head and off the paper.

Any other metaphor-like stuff (not that metaphor is the correct term but whatever)?

You totally dropped the ball with some sexual-harassment innuendo.

I think of it less of dropping balls and more of ensuring my balls don't end up in HR having a stern talking-to.

But sexual innuendos did fill my head.

Wonder if this is the kind of stuff that can be found in Goko's code:

My favorite so far:

Code: [Select]
// I can't divide with zero, so I have to divide with something very similar
result = number/0.00000000000001;

Really interesting mini-documentary about the nature of internet celebrity.  As usual, the youtube comments are depressing and filled with people missing (and proving) the point.  But the video is worth the watch!

I watched that the other day. Interesting film. I thought of it again when Notch recently sold Mojang (Minecraft) to Microsoft. It seems that part of the reason he did it was because a vocal minority on the internet was mad at him over Minecraft's EULA. I guess I don't know for certain how I would react in a similar situation, but damn that seems like overkill.

The billions of dollars was probably part of the consideration as well. :P  What was wrong with the EULA?

I've never paid much attention to Minecraft.  Not sure if it's because the game just never appealed to me, or I never gave it a chance out of some hipster desire to not enjoy the latest trend.  I never actually tried it out, beyond watching friends play it.

Nothing was wrong with the EULA. It didn't change. Some other Mojang employee reminded folks that they weren't allowed to charge real moneys for server perks (like in-game items and abilities). Some parasites people who were making tons of money off these sorts of servers were enraged and spewed hatred at Notch, among others. Apparently this hurt his feelings.

EDIT: Here, you can read his take on it on his website. The post titled "Literally worse than EA" is about the EULA stuff. The post titled "I'm leaving Mojang" is about the sale to Microsoft. I try not to be a hipster, but the guy literally sold out. And he sold out all his employees in the process.

Hmm, maybe it's because I'm not a Minecraft player, but he seems pretty reasonable when he lays it out.  I don't know what it means for Mojang or Minecraft though.

It's perfectly reasonable. I guess I just held him to a higher standard.

I don't know much about the guy or his game, but I presume he built it from the ground up? If so, then he watched his quaint little game turn into this creeping kudzu fungus virus plague monster and may have just said, "fuck this shit."

Wild speculation on my part having no idea what is really going on.

I did try Minecraft, but I found it tedious for my tastes. I also tried Terraria, which I understand is a 2D Minecraft. I found that tedious as well. Apparently that type of game holds no interest for me.

Someone is playing this kingdom against 5 bots right now: Haggler, Cultist, Count, Border Village, Altar, Steward, Market Square, Upgrade, Torturer, Knights.


Why would anyone do that?

I watched a video of a woman wearing a bikini and some animal mask pulling up in a high-end car and getting out. Then a man, also wearing a mask, groped her breasts with a rubber glove attached at the end of a trombone as he played Yankee Doodle. Upon the song's completion, the woman got in the car and drove off.

I would hunt down the video and link it, but I think the description is weird enough.

Not sure if hawt.

I assure you that having sound did not enhance it in any way, so you're good to go.

So I have a playful discourse with someone in the office who laments that she doesn't have anything in her inbox. So I drew a picture of a dam and put it in there to counter my "I don't give a damn" attitude.

Then I drew a picture of a rat's ass and put it in there.

If my work environment was less restrictive (and I knew she wouldn't be offended), I would consider drawing a flying fuck, but I think that will just have to stay in my head and off the paper.

Any other metaphor-like stuff (not that metaphor is the correct term but whatever)?


Update: I did include a flying fig, as that expression sees some use.

But now, aside from not giving a damn, a rat's ass, or a flying fig, I've run out of idioms along this thought. I'm about to start making things up like not giving a bear on a trike.

You could always give a shit. Which is fairly vulgar I suppose, so maybe you could give a Shih Tzu or a shiitake?

I like it. The group isn't very prudish, so the play on words that sounds like shit would go over well without the awkwardness of drawing something crude. Excellent suggestion.
