The Question Game
I've been thinking about doing this for a while now, but it was rlly my BF who convinced me too.
This is called the Question Game. You comment and ask me a question. It can be anything: funny, humorous, racy, serious, embarrassing, whatever. I have to answer it honestly. The catch is that I get to ask you a question, and you have to answer it also. We go back and forth like that until someone gives up or we get tired of playing.
Ready? Go!

I don't know, but if person is younger than 30 or so (ie, started working after computers were common) you can generally get them to do new things. Anyone older seems to think that if something works you need to fix it so that it doesn't work and something that fails needs a better system but will not ever put the effort into it.
(What is a POS?)
You did not answer my question. Does this mean I win?

POS stands for Point Of Sale. It's the computer program used to run the cash register. It also stands for exactly what you're thinking it stands for.
Old people fall into the category with everyone else. They're "normal humans". Which also explains your question of why drivers are morons. Because the average human is a complete and utter moron. The 15% of those morons who ever finish some sort of degree are slightly better than the rest at being not-stupid but there's still a lot of stupid out there. There are entire hours of stupid where all the morons flock to the road to display their stupid like some twisted badge of honor. Those hours are collectively called "rush hour".
As cool as my old guy boss being a ninja is, he's still old and he's still pretty "normal human". Today he offered to sell the store to a random guy instead of my supervisor who's been working said store for over a decade and has been making hints, pleas, and offers for three years. Wow, Boss isn't even attempting to hide his disdain for my supervisor.
My boss even warned me today to not let my supervisor "push me around". Dude, he so doesn't. He buys me sushi and banters and is fun and amusing and I can get him to shut up with a well-placed Your Mom joke. It's great.
Oh, I found out today that I can prevent shoplifting with one hard-placed glare. Apparently I look EVIL.
Why do all energy drinks taste like cough syrup?
no subject
I wish my supervisor were like that. I have had a grand total of sx conversations with my supervisor in six weeks. It's making me nervous; I can't tell if he doesn't like me or is just too busy to deal with the intern.
Lacha, you are evil. I don't think it is so much that you look it as that you exude evil aura and everyone picks up that it is Not Good to be on your bad side.
Because everything else tastes like chicken.
Does that mean Malaga is an energy drink? O.o
no subject
Eh, he's just busy.
You have no idea how hard it is to exude not-evil for work. Because tho it keeps the 4 year olds in line the moms are unappreciative.
Everything else does not taste like chicken. I should know, I've eaten many of the everything else.
My comp doesn't offer any clairolfactory hookups so I can't tell for sure but good muscat doesn't usually taste like cough syrup.
But still, to cover up the bitter of 294mg of caffiene they use so much sugar and bad food flavoring it becomes cough syrup. Bleh.
Who in their right (or wrong) mind makes cough syrup wine?
no subject
I speak, not of the Spanish Malagas, but the Kosher wines of the same name. If I had to describe the taste, it would be like taking cough syrup, adding sugar to it, and then allowing the whole thing to ferment. It tastes exactly like fake grape flavoring, and I don't really know how that's managed because it comes from real grapes. We all drink it anyway because the other Kosher wines are worse.
You must understand that because grapes are not meat and no meat or meat products are used in wine production, it's impossible to make an unKosher wine.
To understand why the Kosher wineries don't just make better tasting wines, I must relate a story. My great-great-granduncle, who immigrated from the old counrty, lived in Kentucky. Kentucky is bourbon country, and he was regularly invited by some of his gentile friends to try the Kentucky bourbon. Eventually, he agreed. The poured him a shotglass of it; the drop that spilled was stripping the varnish of the table. So he picks up the shot, slugs it, slams the shotglass down and says . . . "That vas nice vine."
That is what most Black Hatter patriarchs think of bourbon, even today. Malaga, as far as they are concerned, is not wine. It's not even alcoholic. You give it to the kids to make then sleepy, and the women because [rolleyes] women cannot handle real vodka, and therefore it has to be sweet.
The sad bit is that my grandmother, 84 year old putz that she is, likes Malaga. Way to enforce the stereotype! [/sarcastic]
Aren't you glad you're not Jewish?
no subject
I... somehow fear Jewish wine now. Because as a chemist I'll swallow most things that don't smell poisonous. But that kinda stretches my definition of what smells poisonous.
I does make me glad I'm not Jewish, actually. Or, well, at least not that Jewish.
I should get a tattoo. I've got the wings-spread dragon planned for my lower back, just have to finish designing it. Any suggestions for anything else? I was thinking of a serpent armband around my upper left arm.
no subject
I'm not that Jewish either, although a lot of my extended family is. My immediate family only uses Malaga for the blessings. For dinner/table wines, we use dinner/table wines. I prefer Bartenura :9
Serpents are always cool. Given the entire la chatte noire thing, I think you also need to have a black cat done somewhere. Or the cat's eye. One of the two.
Is evil actually delicious, or is it just empty carbs?

Why is it stuff to do at work only shows up when you're goofing off? That's why I'm on LJ at work, to attract Murphy's customers.

I just had my pregnant friend bring her toddler over to the store for me to do readings on him (UGH!!). Why are little kids always throwing up for no reason? It almost made me sick today.

Whyyyy did my boss think that setting up shop next to a haunted halfway house for insane people was a good idea? Not that the occasional game of cards with random people isn't fun but some of the nutjobs put the worst gamer funk to shame.

How crazy are these nutjobs?
