  1. Just used my WCPL library card for the first time in over a year, and found that a sibling had used it and incurred $15 in late fees.
  2. Went to work, realized I'd forgotten to bring my headphones. Then I remembered that I hadn't brought them because I left them at work. :D
  3. Dear person next to me at the bus stop: you're going to be deaf before you hit 30.
  4. @Volatar another option is to do comparisons as constant == variable. That way if you use = it will error. It just looks dumb instead.
  5. @Volatar have you got the -Wall -Werror -Wextra flags set on your compiler? On some compilers that will make them check for that mistake.
  6. OMG, sodium! twitter.com/_jdpage/status…
  7. Just spent the afternoon reimplementing a 124-line C program as a 45-line Haskell program. I'm not sure if I should feel productive or not.
  8. Hey guys, minesweeper on hard is the best game for Windows, amirite?
  9. @bearjcc muahaha. That's what you think.
  10. @sdub1985 spoilers: pintsize and hanners end up together, dora and steve, and marten comes out to liking Lady Gaga. :P
  11. @SamuelPage000 "extraneous diction aside" is a gem, the best phrase I've heard all day. You win, good sir.
  12. @SamuelPage000 *genuinely. "u" omitted inadvertently.
  13. @SamuelPage000 Why so brief? Minimalism leaves comprehension challenging. Verbose remarks please one intellectually if formed correctly.
  14. @SamuelPage000 mere initial descent conveys braininess, almost! Total reduction lexically invokes geninely entertaining arrangements.
  15. Yes, witty remarks regarding prose made lexically descending court cerebral abstraction. What of it?
  16. @SamuelPage000 vexingly, sullied second part eviscerates effect. Time taken revising might left inadequate brainpower; advise?
  17. @SamuelPage000 Provide, please, pithy epigrams dissipating diffeq angst. Worded, preferably, so initials descend alphabetically.
  18. @teawithhippies two finals left! I return Wed evening & have the rest of the week off, so I can go pester you and @SamuelPage000 at work.
  19. @teawithhippies also, computer science majors. I can't wear my fedora anymore because it's too mainstream.
  20. @sdub1985 I have been wearing a lot of dark shirts lately.
