    I don't give a shit about "waste," I just want some luxury when I'm laying down my hard-earned money.

    for the car, of course!

    Obviously, all napkins should be made out of tortillas...which can later be eaten. Think man, think!

    Getting served a nice stout or porter in a frozen glass, so I can't really taste the dark beer. That is only good for cheap/macro beer hiding imperfections.

    Nailed it.

    I grab a fistful from Chipotle or wherever I grab a bite every so often to restock the glove box. Napkins come in handy in the car.

    Now that I know it irks people I'm doubling down on each stack I grab from here on out.

    GoToMeeting. The crimefighters over there had months to test out their versions on OS X Mavericks and yet, it still crashes when I share my screen. Upon contacting support, the finger gets pointed at nVidia and/or Apple.

    Fuck you! Fix your product, you cunts. You had months to test on the next release of OS X.

    Has the new iOS been mentioned yet? I'm no techie but I hate my new (old) iPhone with this shit. I thought iPhones were for the un-tech-savvy?

    I just figured out DOS, how am I supposed to deal with this?

    No napkins included in your lunch to go at the deli, etc.

    Those napkins that have the texture of a magazine and don't absorb anything.

    Totally. Don't they know we've got to check the new posts on TGR before any work gets done?

    I still haven't updated, and probably won't. This just reassures me that I shouldn't.

    Good lord, why the fuck not?

    I have a work-issued iPhone 5 and updated when our IT dept. told us to - about a week after release. Zero problems since then, love how easy it is to turn wifi/blutooth/airplane mode on or off, set an alarm or timer, and turn on a "flashlight" without having to unlock the phone. The rest is pretty much exactly the way it was before, except with a new look and somewhat improved battery life.

    I don't get the hate.

    Those douches were so funny, I had to mock them. Every now & then I put a few facts in. They like the aspect of a ski town vs. a ski hill & spending all day in the ski town. They seem to like to be allergic to powder.

    finding out that my friends still don't know how transfer music files to iTunes from my computer to their computer. That stuff makes me laugh, it blow their minds when I show them how easy it is.

    I own a business. My father in law is a multi-millionaire, sick beach house, winters in Naples, 2014 BMW 650i, a slew of $300 jeans, etc, and he fucking grinds me up every time they ask me to quote work for his business. Gets quotes from piece of shit companies and insinuates that their, design, equipment, labor, service, and desire to make them a happy client is superior to mine. It's wrong and insulting, and this morning I told him to fuck off, do business with the other company, and like the last time he went with someone else, don't call me to fix it when your shit decision making comes home to roost.

    His son works for the company, is 27 years old, and just got his wife an X5 as a company car in addition to the car he drives. But you know, grind me for a few grand. The husband of your daughter. What a dick.

    Good move. Just try not to cave when he comes crawling back, even though his daughter will probably want you to. Let him stew in it.
