listen, seriously, a retarded monkey with a personality could do my job, i don’t know what is proving so hard to everyone else in this bitch, rewrite your resume to sound like you did p.r.-y type shit and i’ll get you a job with me. granted this place is hella lame so you might not want to do that.

it is not a done deal until I get an offer and respond in the affirmative. this has not happened yet because “The prime is out until tuesday.” meaning that the new-job equiv. of my current boss’s boss on the LM side is not around, which sounds familiar.

From what I’ve heard I should be getting a better deal being hired by this sub company rather than directly hired by GD though.

ugh no working from home does not appear to be a possibility. no no it’s ok, look i don’t wanna be here anyway and now i’ve got a legitimate motivation to get my ass in gear re: applying to other shit. but i sort of have no idea what i want to do ;_;

ally i will consider science, we should talk about it. i mean, i have always liked science, the discipline, and i like magazines, so you know, there is that.

can we call our band SCIENCE THE DISCIPLINE or is that too lame for everyone

nevermind the answer is yes it is too lame

how about

FUCK YOU WE’RE SCIENCE

SCIENCE THIS IS WHACK

uggggggggggggggggh

yeah, look what you did.

Hi DC. This is Nick. I realized I might not be coming back to DC with any regularity anymore because my parents are moving to North Carolina. My sister will still be in DC, but I don’t really visit her specifically as often.

;_;

I have to admit that I don’t understand that emoticon. I see everyone using it but I don’t know what it means. Is it a crying face?

yeah it’s emotion tears face

eventually when it is not fuckoff fuck you fuckass fuck weather outside we will make a field trip to chicago though

cool—we have a futon. Ask Pete.

we’ll make our way over there at some point too (playing out of town more often these days) and we can play the fakest show of all time

let’s all just go together in one big group

catparade.jpg

alex kudos on login i approve

i claim raised fist cat

anyway it is technically not a cat parade, the title of this work of art, which i own btw, is cats going to school

I so so so want to steal that for a show flier.

yeah dude nick and sarah have an awesome futon in a great apartment in a cool neighborhood in a city with WAY more rollerbladers than are in DC!

hey waitaminute shit I can see flickr images again?!?!? this place is so fucked up

Let go of the rollerbladers.

wvs yo—shit was shocking

fuck this day, i’m just heading to the big hunt now

see you guys in 7 hours!

hate to break it to you but they don’t open until like 4. trust me, i’ve tried before

that’s exactly what you’d expect to hear from a person without a crowbar

hahahahahahahaha

lol ally is nazi

“cats going to school” my ass.

everyone already knew i was a nazi

WOW HOW THE FUCK IS IT NOT EVEN NOON YET

It’s not even 11 here yet. :( I am so far ahead on my work today. Sorry I am haunting DC ILX today but I am bored and DC and Chicago seem to be the only ILX sandboxers yet.

my office is finally getting together for sort of a kind of happy hour thing at 3:30 at the old dominion brewpub at the convention center. hoorade.

xpost no dude you rule! haunt!

n/a we like you here, you should stay

also wtf at 3:30 happy hour!! jeez.

dude j.lu is like the most xtreme old-skool dcilxor—don’t be hatin’!

S’all right, I’ve been a recluse for far too long. Glad to see that you all haven’t remained frozen in time while I was away. I’ll see youz guyz at the BH, probably around 6:30/7pm.

Way back when I lived in Mount Pleasant, one of the restaurants had a sign saying its happy hour was something like 10am-6pm.

I was looking on the old dominion website to see what beer they have on tap there and I came across a photo that somehow manages to make beer look unappealing:

TOMBOT if you order pints of the millenium barleywine you should be drunk by 4:30.

dudes the original Zelda, A Link To The Past (super nintendo) and Ocarina Of Time (N64) are all available for download on the Wii now

xxpst some of my friends used have this meme about how wed rather drink a frothy glass of cum than _______

PURITY & FRESHNESS

haha “When I get up in the morning I piss purity and freshness!!”

if you don’t drink Old Dominion then FUCK YOU!

awesome new line:

“i got banned from gmail; i can only communicate by kissing”

pete your lines are so totally weird to me

ive got fitzcarraldo in my bag

otm

send the dead roses

fizcarraldo v. classic

re: post article, i am FROM western md and i have never once seen those on any truck out there. either del. myers is crazy or they’re all in garrett county, i dunno

ok is it really that hard to understand that if you are purchasing a banner ad on a website, you need to provide a url to link to.

that is impossible to get your head around

whoa garance you just laid a mindfuck on me

“Hey, sorry, I thought 1an had sent them to you! Here it is again”

(insert banner.gif here, no URL)

wtf

i’m just gonna link it to a picture of reche caldwell

LINK IT TO SCHEFTERBLOG

DID YOU KNOW THAT HE IS TIME MAGAZINE’S 2006 PERSON OF THE YEAR

what if they just want a banner ad for display purposes? like if I bought an ad that said “BLOOD DIAMONDS” I wouldn’t need a link.

wait we can make that happen for a relatively small amount of money

dude you’re running that magazine we clearly need no money at all to make it happen

okay WTF project manager be talking about how my projects aren’t as desirable as bigger projects. My projects EXIST and are PROFITABLE unlike the big projects you keep interviewing for and not landing!

yeah but i get commissions if we pay for it

if we purchase 50k impressions for one day it would only be like maybe $50 each and the website would say nothing but blood diamonds for an entire day

and with my $8 of commissions, i will buy some appetizers at the big hunt, for us all to share while celebrating

ally can we commission you in beers?

ok yeah i’ll agree to that. let’s make this happen

If we’re gonna get serious about this I vote for the banner ad to be the following:

or maybe

it has to confirm to width/length guidelines tho but there’s no reason ALL of these elements cannot be included.

hey guys i have to do an interview in like 20 minutes and just got it sprung on me now!!!!

I hate that when that happens

lol he is apparently georgian and i do not mean the state!!!!!! this guy is going to rule!!! :D

“I think I’d be a great fit for Science.”

OTM!!!!!!

oh holy fuck they really didn’t make any of the corrections to my commissions. i’m gonna tell stalin to run far away i think

but you told ZR he could come work there!

there is room for me, stalin and zr all in one room, brian.

“In Soviet Russia, commissions correct you!

apparently my boss is interviewing for my boss boss’ job? so I might get my boss’ job. Again. Just what I always wanted, to be first mate on a sinking ship.

fuck you we’re talking about my job now

i would work with all of this politburos

TOMBOT I think your boss is interviewing for a job with SCIENCE!

maybe we should all just take over science mag, is the thing

oh man we’d make it the best magazine EVER

EVERYONE COME INTERVIEW WITH ME, IT’LL BE FUN, I’LL SERVE REFRESHMENTS, ZR OTM

sciUHnce

lol oh man if someone would make that photoshop i would print it out and it would be the one personal item i will have on my desk

next issue of sciUNce:

* TIME: can it ever mend the careless whispers of a good friend?

* ughhh sooo hungover

* This month’s centerfold: LONGCAT

back page should be all choice caruso quotes

*GIN: great or second-rate? our expert panel learns the shocking truth

Dudes, I’m 2m below sea level, on my second pint of gin and considering whether st peter’s ruby re or best bitter should be my next drink.

You decide.

ed clearly in a situation like this the answer is always “both”
