*headdeskheaddeskheaddesk*

Today seems to be designed to keep my blood pressure up. Argh.

(Yes, I realize that new icon looks like Dan Halen incarnate.)

Actually that icon is reminding me of John Goodman in _Barton Fink_ bellowing "Look upon me! I will show you the life of the mind!"

Thank goodness, I was afraid it was just me. Here: hold these two hatchets, and stand at the other end of this hallway while I set it on fire.

Ahhh, perfect.

That's an *excellent* idea!

Remember, the universe exists exclusively to annoy the PCs.

Apparently so. :P

One thing finally turned my way... PowerPoint sucks ass. We know this. Exporting from Keynote to PPT means you lose 90% of the visual niceties that make a Keynote presentation nice to look at while the speaker is making with the mouth noises. Worse, it bungled every Move Object action I had, which rendered each animation useless. I considered making slides that had each pre- and post- move action, but then realized that that was insane.

So I decided not to use PowerPoint at all. Blasphemy, I know. Instead, I had Keynote export to PDF, with a page for each build transition in the presentation. Then I just deleted the pages that were mid-build. Voila.

It's sad when the technical side of things is the easiest flow during the day. :P

You and me both, my friend.

But I submit if you wouldn't waste so much time making icons and posting, you'd likely get more done. ;)

You say 'waste time'. I say 'expressing myself'.

Be glad I'm clothed.

Of *all* people, I would have thought you'd be the one supporting the right to run around buck naked, screaming wildly at the top of one's lungs!

least 7

making an icon of myself or you running around nekkid in the office is wrong....and likely to get yourself a fast tix to the special place with the rubber walls for at least 72 hours.

However running around nekkid in the woods screaming at the top of my lungs? Happens just 'bout everyday-my neighbors probably hate me;)

I don't care how clothed you are, you're in New York.

Besides, if you annoyed me I could twist the piercings. ;D

give him an extra twist for me ;)

[identity profile] kickaha.livejournal.com 2008-04-02 06:13 pm (UTC)(link)
Hey now! I insist on any piercing twisting be delivered in person!

And you'll be back in town when?

[identity profile] kickaha.livejournal.com 2008-04-03 08:36 pm (UTC)(link)
Not anytime soon, if that's the reception I'm going to receive!

Well maybe if you buy me dinner first. I *do* have standards.

You say 'waste time'. I say 'expressing myself'.

I fail to see the distinction.
