Welcome to the IHoP

Recommended Posts

I feel that same way about eclipse sales and customer support.  Tech is great there, the others suck.  Yesterday I was on the phone with 5 different people.  Finally I was told that the sales manager would call me back.  Did she?  Nope.

Thats the way pioneer was with me. I hated dealing with them, only to receive my deck back broken again.

Tom would need to cut the hair.

We'd all sit in the back and ask those stupid questions teachers never like, especially after they go over the course syllabus.

*whiny voice*

"Will this be on the exam?"

"Do we have to read this?"

will this be graded?

Almost got into a good wreck on the way to campus this morning, but at least it had a happy ending...

I merged into traffic from the left side (this is a two lane highway), and there was a gray SUV in the right lane several hundred feet back and a guy on a bike up ahead about a hundred feet or so. I merged into the left lane, making sure to keep plenty of clearance on my right side - and I'm damned glad I did, because the arseho in the gray SUV decided to thread the needle between the biker in his lane and me in the left. It wasn't like I just pulled out in front of them...he had a good five hundred feet to decide whether or not to hit the brakes and pass the biker up the road.

So instead of getting angry, I took a mental note of his plate number and dialed 911 - while he swerved in front of two more people and ran a red light at the next intersection. I must not have been the only call, because a minute or so later a VA State Police car with lights flashing went by me :) When I got to school, they were pulled over right at the entrance to campus, and it looks like the officer was giving him a piece of his mind :D:idiot::ohsnap: Sometimes...the pigs are handy for these sorts of things, heh.

pwntwagon to the m-m-m-max.

was a relatively tame lecture in sociology today. today's topic was culture, so naturally he lectured on the ways different countries take chits and pisses. he also told us the phrase should be "making a chit" and not "taking a chit" and "springing a leak" and not "taking a leak," valid points I must say. then he said "phuck you" for some reason but I wasnt paying attention. I think Steve should teach his class like this :D

where did you get -10 from?

(the equation right above it shows you how)

can I turn my homework in earlier? (cause I'm a stupidass overachiever)

Right on ... I think you'd like it.

I drew up a whole bunch of lesson plans today, it's kind of exciting.

It's a dry class. I'm going to try and make the class as fun as possible though. Wonder if the young crew likes fight stories or chit like that. Always good to refer to practical experiences of friends during certain bone breakings or muscle tearings.

Stories are fun.

People WILL listen to a story if its funny/awseome.

Lesson plans, ehh, doubt that

My english teacher used to tell the clas about his yound days when he used to throw golf balls at people.
