I feel very alien-like this morning. Extremely detatched from all humans! I'm in a strange place at the moment!

I almost forgot, it's my half-birthday today! Only six more months until I'm 28. Yes, even though I'm almost 28 and single.......... I have more freedom with my life. I'm now at peace with things, and know that I've got to go with the flow in life...... my woman will come to me in due time. :D

At least the scope has a duplex reticle. I can't stand the wannabe sniper mil-dot things.

Heh, I do that too. I do it with everything related to foodstuffs in the stores, really.


Well, stock rotation and all. All the newer stock gets placed at the back of the shelf and the older stock moved to the front, so customers take the older stock before the newer stock sells, otherwise the old stock just ends up staying there and goes off. Thats when we come in and ruin their inventory strategy :P

Yeah, I'm one of those that steals the milk cartons from the back of the line with the freshest dates too. It's always good to watch out for dents and whatnot on tins too (don't want to get botulism).

I actually spend a lot of my spare time in grocery stores molesting the bread. People on the bread-molestation sub-reddit are well-aware that our intended targets pick the loaves from the back, so we all make sure to especially molest those packages.

Hands in the air and step away from the bread. Step away from the bread sir!

I always pick items from the back, check the use-by date and inspect the product to ensure that I'm buying the best possible one. It's surprising that you often find really old ones at the back. I was once told off by a Woolworth woman for picking an item from the back because it ruined the rotation. I had to remind her that it's not my problem.

I have just discovered a mistake in my avatar. It took 1 1/2 years. It's been wrong the whole time! And I haven't finished drawing my new one yet!

If I had a time machine, I'd travel back to 1933 and tell Hitler to smarten up.

Suddenly all the banner ads read WP is being upgraded, please click. I checked the site discussion forum and the front page for some official info, but I don't see any. WTH?

Never mind, I found it.

I once dated a girl from the island of Crete. What a cretin she was.

I'm reading a book about body language and apparently NTs use extraneous words to lengthen their speeches to allow extra time to convey the nonverbal communication.

Aparrently nonverbal communication makes up between 60% to 90% of the entire message. I wonder what they're saying. They're probably making fun of us Aspies.

Fascinating!
