Just had Subway myself.

Fries do sound good at the moment though.

A new grind: Being at work for a 12 hour shift and watching movies for over half cause there is NOTHING going on. I mean, im getting paid, but i could be doing something much more productive...

Lol. That actually stopped right when i posted that. Jinxed myself.

Every alarm for about 300 different sites decided to go off. So, our monitor took a dump, then when it got back up i had about 10 sites genuinely ****ed.

Then add the change over to our NOC from other NOC's(we are after hours support) and i was constantly busy past few hours.

I hate NASCAR weekends...clogs up the little town where my office is to a standstill. I also really enjoy them all yelling at me "buy American" while coasting by in the Honda because of all the traffic these idiots have caused in their rusted out school buses and RV's.

Bunch of furking retarded redneck hillbilly phukstains.

Not that buying an American car really matters anymore, because hardly anything on the car is made in the US as in individual parts.

That pretty much goes for any manufacturer except for something like Tata motors (India) or Cherry. (China)

...And never mind that there are plenty of foreign car companies that employ many people here in North America.
