| fingerprint fun
i was at the santa clara sheriff's office last night getting some fingerprint cards filled out.
the new school way of taking prints is to use this computer that scans
your fingers, then prints it out using a regular printer. however, i
had to do it the old school way thanks to the lame government agency
that does the fingerprint checking. bastards!
basically the way the fingerprinting works is there's this circular
metal plate with a bunch of this black sticky ink stuff smeared on it.
the fingerprint taker places your fingers on the plate to pick up the
ink, then presses your fingers to the fingerprint card. repeat for each
finger and hand, and voila, you're done. the whole process takes all of
three minutes. nice and easy, right?
so anyways, i ended up spending an hour in the nearly deserted
sheriff's office. i dunno why it took so long, i mean, there wasn't
exactly a crowd waiting to get fingerprinted.
the place was almost as slow as getting something done at the dmv. *shudder*
