@FarrahC32 @lynnlangit My older friend Lyn has a great response to those statements, where the person is just being a complete idiot: you give them a withering stare and calmly say, “Thank you for that useful contribution.” She manages to convey an ocean of contempt with it. 😂

@jedws @Amys_Kapers @unixbigot I can’t believe none of you heard me say it before! Or my favourite unit of measurement – the metric ass-ton.

---

@Amys_Kapers @jedws @unixbigot A subtle but important distinction, like how Rodd keeps telling me that the US tablespoons in my recipes aren’t the same as the Australian tablespoons in our kitchen, and I just shrug. (Metric ass-spoons, amirite?)

Watching Community Season 5 where Abed has to watch 5 Nic Cage movies. The Snook challenged me to name my 5: Con Air, The Rock, Raising Arizona, Moonstruck (the one where he’s hot), and Peggy Sue Got Married (deep cut).

---

The Snook: “I’ll also pick Con Air, The Rock, Raising Arizona… as well as National Treasure and Kick-Ass.”

Me: “You’re the worst.”

---

Ah. The crappiness of getting some recognition, feeling good for a moment… and then hearing through the grapevine that a friend/colleague is implying you didn’t deserve it.

---

@gilmae Meh. Screw ‘em.

@glenngillen 100%! Just getting the annoyance out of my system. 😉

@The_McJones @SeaOfThieves I told the Snook last night that you and @TheMartianLife have finally succeeded in making me want to be a pirate too. We don’t have a supported system right now though… 😭

---

@The_McJones @SeaOfThieves @TheMartianLife I’ll have to borrow his Surface. And I haven’t done any RPGs in, like, ever… Am I going to be falling off the boat like a clueless n00b?

---

@MelissaKaulfuss Biased, but I’d say Solutions Architects like the ones on my team fit the bill! We do a bit of building out demos; a bit of evangelising; but the bulk of our time is spent meeting with different customers and helping them get the most out of the cloud.

---

@MelissaKaulfuss I would’ve said so before, but the weird thing is the longer this isolation goes on, the more withdrawn I feel like I am. Maybe the Snook’s introversion is rubbing off. I’m getting worried I’ll lose my ability to socialise when I get free. 😂

@The_McJones I was with you up until you besmirched R+J. 😐

@The_McJones Heh. As a theater and film student, I feel like things would be a lot more boring if that were always the case.

---

@msharp That’s really cool!

---

@petehanssens @richbuggy @MichelePlayfair This has died down a little bit for me recently – probably due to current state of things. The one that really made me see red recently was the recruiter who messaged on LinkedIn demanding that I intro him to other hiring managers in my company. LIKE, NO.

---

👋 Film & Theater degree. I built websites as my part-time job all through college. I lucked out in the timing – in 1999 saying “I know HTML” opened a lot more doors than it does these days. I’ll second @gabehollombe though – all my best jobs have come through my social network. https://t.co/FQVmmNtGC0

---

@gabehollombe Did I know you had an English degree? If not, BIG LIBERAL ARTS HUG from your theater nerd buddy. ❤️

---

@petehanssens @richbuggy @MichelePlayfair I also tend to get the “Hmm, we need to hire women, so we’ll ask Kris because she’s a woman and must have a secret pile of talented women candidates!” As if I wouldn’t be hiring them my damn self.

---

@gabehollombe As a Stage Manager, I’m now filled with the urge to yell at you over a headset. 😂

Ignore the dodgy pleating on the front – it’s meant to have a drawstring so I’m just pulling it in to check the fit.

---

Oh, and it’s an old bedsheet.

---

….and I accidentally sewed one leg inside out. (And don’t think I couldn’t hear @randomknits laughing in my head at that one.)

---

@misswired It’s not as bad as I expected, to be honest.

@minxdragon @the_snook It was awesome! https://t.co/H2VF22Zff2 I believe they have retooled it these days to focus more on a mission to Mars.
