So I suppose Ill post something. Might not be all that important, but Ill post.. something.
My delete key seems to be on the blink. I think its a prime indication that its time to buy a new computer. As you all know, its much easier and way more practical to purchase a new computer than to simply switch a keyboard for another, selected from the surplus lying about my house. (geek logic)
Moving right along..
Since leaving my job with Tacoma Goodwill Industries I think I can plainly say that that company is fucking retarded. Seriously. They now have a campaign to get people to purchase, for $3 a blue plastic bracelet that says "Goodwill" on it. This fabulous piece of shit rubber comes elegantly packaged in a clear plastic bag with a full color cardboard card attatched thanking customers for donating and purchasing crap. It also details the fact that $.90 of every dollar spent there goes directly to helping people. The ploy in this bracelet thing? You get a coupon good for 20% off your next purchase when you buy this silly piece of shit bracelet. Now thinking about this from a logical perspective.. ie a cheap fucking dickwad, if I were to purchase MORE THAN $15 worth of merchandise in one sitting (which I have a tendency to do) it would pay for itself. But the coupon is only good once. So in order for this to be profitable for me, Id have to purchase a new bracelet each time I go there. Ok.. wait. Now I know what you are thinking... "But Gary! You shop there all the time!" THATS WHAT I WAS THINKING TOO! I would wind up with 890734590273 of these god damned plastic pieces of shit. So I would wind up donating them back. And throwing away a perfectly good $3.00 bracelet. Me being the egotistical jackass I am, I wouldnt wear the god damned thing, but still!
Enough rambling. The point is, that company wastes money like its no tomorrow. Thats why I left that company. That, and they pay shit, dont give a flying fuck about their employees (thankfully I had a kickass manager who really DID give a shit about the employees.. as I said.. the company could give two shits less.) which made leaving really easy. On to more pressing subjects.
Last night (Friday) we purchased an arcade game from some guy on ebay. It's called 'Lethal Enforcers' and is quite bloody. And nasty. And is in general a kickass time. We are going to convert my computer room into a 'home arcade.' Man, we rock!
Speaking of thrift stores, Value Village is really starting to piss me off. They once again have changed their pricing guidelines. (If you have the privilage of ever working for that company, let me tell you, kill yourself. They change things daily...) Once again, customers will see a significant hike in prices. They really ought to change their motto to something like.. "Overiced shit at overpriced shit prices." It makes way more sense. And its honest. Now you can purchase a used pair of Nike shorts in shoddy condition for a REDICULOUS "low" price of only $9.99. I hate to tell these fucktards this, but you can buy a NEW pair for $20, and if there is something wrong with them, instead of having to spend your money THE day you return them, you can get another pair. Simple. Fucking cocksnacks. Heh - just an FYI - if anyone is ever at the TJ Maxx in University Place, my former Value Village manager is now a sales associate there. Stop her if you see her and ask why she got fired from Value Village. She is a scrunt. If you want her name, email me. Hehehe.
Speaking of thrift stores, the thrift store at my church was broken into last week. The cocktasters attempted to kick in the front door and were unsuccessful. They kicked in the back door, and were successful (which you could deduce from the fact that in stating that they broke in would imply their successfullness, but in the interest of thoroughsity, I figured Id say it anyway..) at entering the premisis. There was no money on the site. Hello, were not morons. No, no, no. These farking wierdos werent out for money. They didnt get any either. There wasnt any. I told you that already. Instead, they stole underwear. Not all of it. In their haste they dropped two pair on the floor. They also dropped a cute pair of silk boxers on the back porch as they exited. morons. Now we wont be selling any underwear. Its not like anyone bought it anyway. So its gone. For good. Sick freaks. And now after the alarm system has been fixed, if they do it again, their asses will be caught. Sick wierdos.
You know, this very well could be the longest post Ive ever made. I think I should take a moment to reflect on this milestone, but since you all stopped reading three paragraphs ago, Ill digress and just close this post with a thought for you to ponder.
French toast is neither French nor toast. Discuss.
Peace in. G
