A day without Doctor Nefarious is like a day without sunshine…

Case in point...

Somebody has been a very good dog, so as a special treat last night I got him the cute stuffed Mr. Bill toy. When you squeeze his tummy, he says “OH NOOOOOOOooooooo!”

It’s adorable…

… the first 10 times you hear it. It’s moved up to SECOND in the favorite toys ever, knocking Honking Hedgehog into third place. Kinda wishing I got him something not as noisy, but he LOVES it.

So friends of mine had a kid last year and they’re having a party this year to celebrate. My question is what the hell do I get somebody who hasn’t done anything or doesn’t tell anyone what his interests are?

This is the kind of stuff that gets you gift certificates.

“Why don’t you get them a nice savings bond for college…”

…is the advice I always get and promptly don’t follow. The cool uncle gets them TOYS not financial security. Pfft.

The noisiest toy ever! It’s not coming home with you… (this is much more effective if you don’t have kids of your own through which they can reciprocate).

Yes! Also good: The 1000 piece lego set.

Said it before, and I’ll say it again: Emotionally Stable is a must… either of the other two are fine.

“Because of the temporary nature of the knowledge capital, computer programmers quickly reach a stage in their career when their old knowledge capital becomes worthless at the same rate as they acquire new knowledge capital. Their total knowledge capital is no longer increasing, so neither does their salary increase. They have reached the dead end plateau of their career, and it happens after less than ten years in the field.”

- Half Sigma, Why a career in computer programming sucks.

I guess I am lucky to have made it to 20?

On names.

From charo.com:

“Charo is short for Rosario, her given name of Maria Rosario Pilar Martinez Molina Baeza.”

… I did not know you were so susceptible to musical suggestion. You better be careful or the rhythm is going to get you.

You asshole.

That video, by the way, is out of control. YO.

You know what I would do with the dislike button on Facebook? Dislike all these stupid feeds about the dislike button.

If you don’t like something someone said - NUT UP AND SPEAK UP.

If you can’t handle the almost inevitable response(s), then IGNORE IT.

Or take a screen shot and make fun of the passive-aggressive pussies.

I blame Woody Harrelson for the sudden popularity of this phrase.
