Well that explains your shitty outlook on things.

A new meaning to stink eye

Some joker in the dentistry department set the students an assignment on oral / dental X-rays. It was a case study report about a woman, Megan Raye, and her son Xavier. Yes. Xavier Raye.
Saw it

My sister who is very nontechnical when it comes to cell phones or the internet called me with a new big problem. She dropped her phone, an HTC model and shattered the screen.

She told me she was just going to cancel her contract and get a new phone as it was too expensive to replace the glass. I explained that the contract would not cancel, she would pay it out as well as one for a new phone.

Next day I get call from her saying she her contract only has a month left so no big deal but she now wants to buy an unlocked iPad mini because she heard it can be used as a phone. Before I even explained that it can via Skype and other apps it is not really a phone and I tried to picture her driving in traffic and trying to make a call on a big tablet and hold it up to her ear... my sister is a very bad driver already. I also explained that while an unlocked phone has some advantages it is also much more expensive. She said she would get back to me as soon as she makes up her mind.

Swooper swoops in.

(random voices, raised a notch or two) Oh HAI, oh yes we did that Oh listen I'm on the phone speaking very loudly to a student, do you hear how good I am? Oh yes, of course we can do that...that's wonderful.

Swooper: You're all so wonderful and so great and so perfect and stuff. Thanks for all you do.

Randoms: Oh yes, oh yes, watch me walk really fast to the file cabinet to show how busy and industrious I am. Do you see me working closely with my team? I'm a team player. Team all the way, that's me, team team team.

(who's that girl sitting in her cube processing? What's wrong with her?)

Meh.

Meh. Meh is it. Keep on meh-ing. Do not care. Mind over matter - you don't mind and they don't matter.

I never watched much of the original Star Trek series.
By the time it was being repeated here it was already dated.

Imagine my surprise today when a random article informed me that Ensign Chekov was Russian.
I thought he was Scottish!

Yes, there's the name and all that. But the accent threw me.
Blame Sean Connery, with his vast repertoire of foreign accents.
I think everyone sounds Scottish.

The Scotsman on Star Trek: The Original Series was named...

Montgomery Scott

or Scotty for short

Pretty frickkin stereotypical, but then TOS was kinda obvious about everything, because it was network television after all.

(The character is currently played by Simon Pegg.)

I must get round to watching the new films.
Pegg, Cumberbatch and all that.

I was a big fan back in the day, had the DVDs and everything.
Well - of The Next Gen and Deep Space 9.
They started to lose me by squeaky-Janeway, even though I liked her hair. And Enterprise was sexy but had no soul. Or I'd lost mine.

I watched a Star Trek film in a cinema in New York.
We were in the white minority. Felt weird, but good in a way.
One of the few films I've been to where people applaud at the end. I think the others were all on the first day of relaease.

Had to amend as I said premiere.
With all I've done in my life, I have never attended a premiere/ walked the red carpet.

Shopping for a Mother's Day card for my wife
Didn't get it but maybe should have

Attachment 43987

Does it say anything else on the inside?

Yeah, some appropriate stuff like "but we turned out to be good parents." It's the cover that made me laugh.

Well, at least the inside didn't say "Happy Mother's Day!"

:eek:

Thesaurus abuse.
