random blips

For some bizarre reason, I'm reminded of my Contracts prof from last year, who said something like, "It's hard to quantify the loss of something. For example, [while the plaintiff in this case sued in part over the lack of the promised yodelling in his crummy Swiss vacation package], some people might have been grateful for the lack of yodelling. Like I am always grateful for the lack of bagpipes."

I hadn't realized that in the last couple of weeks, I should have been feeling grateful for the lack of Admin and Const readings in my life. Holy god they are dull.

Woeful Wednesday No. 8

MBPU on 4 hours sleep. Just kill me now.

heh

Copied from snarkhunter, and with the same result, too. Bugger.

Squib You scored 8% Slytherin, 40% Ravenclaw, 40% Gryffindor, and 36% Hufflepuff!

Are you sure that you belong at Hogwarts? You show no defined personal characteristics and therefore no house preference. Perhaps you should seriously consider a lucrative career in dentistry or tax preparation -- or allow the Sorting Hat to redetermine your place at a later date.

My test tracked 4 variables How you compared to other people your age and gender: You scored higher than 99% on Slytherin You scored higher than 99% on Ravenclaw You scored higher than 99% on Gryffindor You scored higher than 99% on Hufflepuff

Well. I'll just call myself a Ravenclaw-Gryffindor, then.

oowww...

My eyes... my eyes are bleeding.

Gawd, there's nothing like reading 7 consecutive badhideousfics to make you lose all faith in the English language. Admin Law is looking pretty damn attractive right now.

Right then. I'm off.
