In which telephone book can I find the name "yourpusher"?
You're not exactly showing a lot of bravery yourself, you cowardly little chickenshit punk. Identify yourself so I can beat your ass like you deserve - DO IT NOW!

In A.D. 2101 War was beginning. Captain: What happen ? Mechanic: Somebody set up us the bomb. Operator: We get signal. Captain: What ! Operator: Main screen turn on. Captain: It's you !! CATS: How are you gentlemen !! CATS: All your base are belong to us. CATS: You are on the way to destruction. Captain: What you say !! CATS: You have no chance to survive make your time. CATS: Ha ha ha ha.... Operator: Captain !! * Captain: Take off every 'ZIG'!! Captain: You know what you doing.
Captain: Move 'ZIG'. Captain: For great justice.
The US Food and Drug Administration has banned donations of blood from people who lived in Britain during a certain time. All to prevent the spread of an ailment that so far (in my case at least) has had 30 years to manifest itself but hasn't as of yet. At this rate, I won't contract Creutzfeldt-Jakob Disease until I turn 150.
Dream Scenario: Lucas Wallenczech (sp?) and Wesley Crusher in a steel cage match. When the smoke clears, there's nothing left but a scorched SCUBA regulator and a wrecked baryon particle detector.
Considering that 90 percent of the IT jobs in this area have gone offshore, I personally would be grateful for an 80-hour work week at this point, even if the air conditioners in the office were a bit wonky. It would beat being on extended "sabbatical" or taking one of the many unpaid internships that dominate the job market these days. Just as long as the paychecks which nobody except the guys in Shenzhen and New Delhi are receiving anyway - see above) don't bounce.

If someone offers you food or drink, take it and eat/drink it, as refusal of a gift is seen as a grave insult. I had a loaded and cocked.45 pointed at my face once when I didn't want to drink a shot of whiskey.
Considering that I am a recovering alcoholic and am severely allergic to several types of food, I guess that trip to Thailand is off the table. (At least until I am allowed to carry my own weapon out to dinner).
I've watched three IT admins get escorted out of the building in the past 5 years due to my sending of emails carefully salted with bogus salacious information about our department. If the fake information doesn't make it to a certain vice-president, then their job is safe. If it does, then there's only one person who could have known it (besides me of course), and out the door they go.
This little collateral duty of mine has been quite lucrative - I receive a percentage of whatever money the company saved by firing the dirtbag admins who couldn't keep their noses out of other people's data. And if they were willing to pass on what essentially is inter-office gossip, then who is to say that they wouldn't be just as willing to pass our trade secrets to outsiders?
Well, which one ended up being folded spindled and mutilated inside a wrecked footbridge by a fifth-rate villain then? I wonder if "it was fun" to be made into a human pinata by Guinan's fifth cousin twice removed?
Well, in Britain you're free to utilize another company other than St. Pancras International if you don't like their blocking policies. OTOH, in China you're perfectly free to warmly embrace the blocking policies, as well as being free to attend any of the myriad re-educational soirees held by the Chinese government. I heard they have cookies.
"What is so difficult about making a paper trail?"
AFAIK, the legal fiction behind not providing a paper trail to end users is to prevent your boss or other nefarious authority figure(s) from having an easy way of confirming how you voted. IOW, boss generously allows you time off work to go vote but demands to see your voting slip to prove that you actually went, sees that you didn't vote for his brother-in-law running for dogcatcher as instructed, and cans you as a result.
Depending on where you live, you can be fired because the boss didn't like the color of the tie you wore to work that day - for pretty much any reason or even no reason at all. As always, YMMV.
I got canned once because one of my former manager's kids wanted a summer job - MY job as it turned out. No severance, no COBRA, no nothing - just broomed out the door by security before 10 AM on Friday. (It took me less than 8 hours to start work at the company across the street with a $10,000 a year raise, and my former manager and his kid got canned themselves 3 weeks later.)
"At-will" employment has its good points but it can turn around and bite you very hard.

No worries. The atrocious Engrish is what makes it funny.
Sorry sir, but you've referenced the wrong joke. You want the Large Gravimetric Mass Collider - its 3 doors down the hall, to your right.
Gah! You're doing it WRONG!
In A.D. 2101 ....
War was beginning.
Captain: What happen ?
Mechanic: Somebody set up us the bomb.
Operator: We get signal.
Captain: What !
Operator: Main screen turn on.
Captain: It's you !!
CATS: How are you gentlemen !!
CATS: All your base are belong to us.
CATS: You are on the way to destruction.
Captain: What you say !!
CATS: You have no chance to survive make your time.
CATS: Ha ha ha ha
Operator: Captain !! *

... is the cry every time I see the phrase "close proximity". Is there any other kind of proximity?

Don't forget to reverse the polarity. You ALWAYS have to reverse the polarity.

Don't be a wuss, go, you may not (...) come back.
FIFY. ;)

Give him a top hat and a cane, teach him to croak the binary file on command, then seal him in the box.

Just hope that the Chicoms haven't already bought your bullet.

Some days you get the bear, some days the bear gets Woo.
Well, its a rare medium that is well done.

Tell Gus Grissom, Ed White and Roger Chaffee how well the original Apollo design worked for them. Oh wait you can't - they're dead.
And if the mail runs late or she misses a payment or she bounces a check, she's on the hook for double (over $12,000.00) the settlement amount.
