Bitches love a man who can spend two hours in the kitchen.
All the men in my family are cooks. It's the only way to avoid food poisoning, as girls today don't take home economic classes in school.
[...] an unlikable shitstain.
You're thinking of Chris Christie. When he came up on the news during Fourth of July, I've told my friends that he reportedly weighed 320 pounds. Everyone knows I'm 350 pounds. My friends couldn't believe that I was slimmer than the governor even though I weighed more. As I pointed out, muscle weighs more than fat..
The touch OS got upgraded too many times and slowed down [...]
My iPad 2 has the same problem. I only need it to run the alarm clock app with the air raid siren to wake me up at 4:30AM. For that I leave it plugged in, so battery life isn't an issue.
There is no reason to throw something away just because it needs a new battery.
I still have it. Collecting dust with my HP calculators and Nintendo GBA. Thinking about putting it up on eBay. Maybe someone will want to run Windows on it.
If you want to impress the ladies, making awesome deviled eggs during the holiday season is the skill to learn. One year I made 17 dozen deviled eggs for a half-dozen holiday parties. I was the most popular guy at every party.
I'm sure they all respected the fat man wearing a corset and "formal" sneakers, who has never had sex, has an AA degree, lives in a studio apartment, is a member of a weird Christian cult, and likes manga.
Twenty years ago in 1997... I wore white New Balance training shoes as the dress code at Fujitsu was blue jeans and t-shirts. I got my first AA degree in 1994 and the second AA degree came in 2007. I was living in three-bedroom apartment with five other guys. Because we belonged to the same church, we took care of another roommate who had Lou Gehrig's disease and he died in April 2000 after his 39th birthday. After I left the church and got my studio apartment in 2005, I got into manga.
Doesn't make sense, they should have started at david0
That really depended on the IT department, as there were no best practices for usernames 20 years ago. The first David would almost always use "david" as the username. The next David would either get "david1" or "david2" (it was "david2" at Fujitsu). The fifth David is usually the smart ass out of the bunch, as I've seen a few "da5id" over the years.
Could you maybe elaborate on why that pissed them off?
david, david2, david3, david4, da5id...wtf?! who does this noob think he is?!
Also, why does it matter if he's a graphic artist?
Programmers thought the graphic artists were a bunch of assholes. Graphic artists thought the programmers were a bunch of assholes. I managed to gain the respect of both teams from my hard work as the intern.
I suppose 20 years ago "noreply@" wasn't really standardized as an email bit bucket for domains, so I'll give him a pass on that, but yes, in general it really doesn't seem a suitable email address today.
I worked at Fujitsu's WorldsAway virtual world division that had five Davids in 1997. If you ever read "Snow Crash" by Neal Stephenson, David #5's username was "da5id" and that pissed off all the other Davids. Especially since David #5 was a graphic artist and not a programmer.
Either you're using the hosting for a heck of a lot more than hosting images or you're an idiot for overpaying by a factor of 10. My guess is the latter.
I pay $15 per month for a Virtual Private Server (VPS) at DreamHost to host a dozen websites. If you know where I can host a dozen websites for $1.50 per month,
let me know.
I passed a kidney stone in 1995. Doctor told me that I had a kidney infection and take some pills. One morning I got up to take a piss. Watch an egg-shaped rock slide through my dick, pop out the other end, and pissed blood and pus for the next 15 minutes. I felt a lot better after that.
I was in the second grade in the 1970's when I found out that there was a one-dollar bill, a two-dollar bill and a five-dollar bill. But no three-dollar bill. I was shocked. Everyone said "queer as a three-dollar bill" in my neighborhood. How can you have a queer without a three-dollar bill?

why not just get a $2 alarm clock?
Not loud enough to wake up the dead.
An iPad is an expensive solution for just waking up in the morning.
The iPad 2 is at end of life and will probably get dropped in the next iOS version. It only needs to run the alarm clock app.

My first-gen iPod Touch should have lasted ten years before the battery died. It only lasted eight years.
If you have a smart TV with a built-in video camera, you can be visually expressive to the spy in your house.
And learn to dance, the ladies love it when you can get up and dance with them.
Another useful skill. The first time I learned how to dance was when my date taught me the moves to "YMCA" by the Village People.

This sounds like something an asshole would say.
Which is why I work in IT today.
Da5id = DaVid.
That is the answer for actually pronouncing the name.

What steak?

Was it worth it?
A $100 steak that melts like butter in your mouth? Absolutely.
Wow, that's an evening out for my wife and I.
That last time I spent more than my food budget was when I had a $100 steak in Las Vegas a few years ago.

You also spend hundreds of dollars a week gorging on buffets.
My monthly food budget is $200 per month.
Lard ass.
Dumb ass.
But that costs money
I spend $180 per year for my hosting provider and another $20 per year to store backups on AWS and Rackspace.
It should have been $123.45. But someone got greedy and added two cents.

I got a whole circus stalking me.
I think they should make a slashdot achievement for that.
