Re: Blog Thread IIIb : Look Who's Blogging Now
pwhodges:
Dijkstra's book on Algol-60 headed the chapter on procedures and parameters with "All jokes are better when applied to bishops". The definition of the language Algol-68 had a quote from Winnie the Pooh over the section on I/O - it was from the story where Eeyore gets a burst balloon and an empty honey pot for his birthday and ends up happily putting the balloon in the pot and taking it out again "look, he said, it goes in and out like anything!"

I just shaved half my head.
Patrick:
Looks fucking awesome, by the way.
Zingoleb:
thanks! it was my second time using clippers but definitely not my first time drastically altering my appearance on a whim
Patrick:
I just found out that my stockroom manager, whose heavy handed, passive-aggressive approach is completely useless at managing actual human beings, may well be getting fired soon. Literally everyone in the store except for one person (who got the job because of her recommendation, and is a complete darling) has complained about her. The person most likely to replace her has been not only delightful company and a good friend since day one, but instrumental in improving my work attitude and performance.
If this rumor turns out to be true, I guarantee that the next shift after I find out, I'm making my family's fried chicken recipe in bulk and bringing it to work so we can all celebrate. I will also barely try not to get caught whistling "Ding Dong, The Witch Is Dead" gleefully throughout the store.
