50 Things We've Learned this Year
Reposted from our Pi-Blog:
1. U.S. life expectancy in 2005 inched up to a record high of 77.9 years. 2. The part of the brain that regulates reasoning, impulse control and judgment is still under construction during puberty and doesn't shift into autopilot until about age 25. 3. Blue light fends off drowsiness in the middle of the night, which could be useful to people who work at night. 4. The 8-foot-long tooth emerging from the head of the narwhal whale is actually a type of sensor that detects changes in water temperature, pressure and particle gradients. 5. U.S. Protestant "megachurches" - defined as having a weekly attendance of at least 2,000 - doubled in five years to more than 1,200 and are among the nation's fastest-growing faith groups. 6. Cheese consumption in the United States is expected to grow by 50 percent between now and 2013. 7. At 68.1 percent, the United States ranks eighth among countries that have access to and use the Internet. The largest percentage of online use was in Malta, where 78.1 percent access the Web. 8. The U.S. government has paid about $1.5 billion in benefits to thousands of sick nuclear-weapons workers since 2001. 9. Scientists have discovered that certain brain chemicals in our tears are natural pain relievers. 10. FBI chief J. Edgar Hoover wrote a drooling fan letter to Lucille Ball in 1955 to tell her how much he enjoyed an episode of "I Love Lucy." "In all the years I have traveled on trains," he noted, "I have often wondered why someone did not pull the emergency brake, but I have never been aboard a train where it was done. The humor in your program last Monday, I think, exceeded any of your previous programs and they have been really good in themselves." PI Blog I edited it.. cuz it was just tooo dayam long.. will be published in full on Jan 2. *rolling eyes*.. why do i start shit i don't finish??? Last edited by docholly; 2006-12-28 at 06:31 PM..

The main thing I learned this year. Keep my mouth shut when talking to your boss as most of the time I end up with my foot in it. lol. Nothing like going to an x-mas family dinner with a couple of Colonels and asking "Who has the Jack and Coke hidden under their table?" lol

I've learned that there a frightening large amount of people who seemingly take pleasure from being tools, drones, or both. Today was a crowning end to 2006 (I doubt the next few days are going to match all the nonsense that was packed in to today). First there was the pleasure of banging heads with Yahoo over there 72hr mailbox placed in pending status state for new commercial accounts which has my inbound mail for my website being sent back as undeliverable.
I can be a real dick sometimes and when someone's treating me like that I just bought my first system when I'm mentioning MX records to them (and I can tell they're not completely dead from the neck up) that's my cue. I left two happy campers behind in that train wreck (the drone and his supervisor), but at least I gleaned a work around out of the super that now has my mail being received at my old mail server until their timer finishes its count down. Then there was paying for the dinner that I just ate. I went to a local pizzeria, ordered a large order, then had them run my visa to pay for it, and the machine freezes after spitting out part of the receipt. After maybe a minute of waiting for the rest I go to have a seat 5ft away so I can eat before the food became cold. The idiots behind the counter tried telling me that I had to stand and wait until the thing finished. Yeah, because everyone knows that if it doesn't finish printing in one minute it'll miraculously finish in the next minute. Right. So I went sat down and ate anyway (still in visual range of the cashier). I sat, ate, and watched as instead of canceling out the purchase at the register to allow both of them be taking orders they just stupidly stood around the credit card machine and stared at it like looking for water to boil rather than maybe unplugging it and trying again with my card (I'm banking the "hold" was because of someone in the back on the freakin phone). I just watched in amazement as the line of people piled up as they worked with one register while three people stood around the credit card machine looking at it, playing with the already printed portion (like pulling on it will make the rest print), and take group think to a new low. Meanwhile I'm eating my food while trying not to laugh as I'm thinking of three stooges jokes (I wasn't in any rush as I was eating). One minute passes, five minutes pass, ten minutes pass (no, I'm not making these numbers up), and viola! the machine finally prints the other half. I'm just really not happy with how the bulk of this year was. |

Don't feel bad. hit the movies the other night with the wife, waited 10 minutes in line for some dumbass who thought he could pay with a check. The girl put in the order for his tickets and when he told her he was paying by check she explained they did not take checks and he figured he would argue. Well after the 8 minutes I hit the roof, seeing the other lines move very fast. I started yelling "How in the world can you pay for a fucking movie with a check? Are you broke? You can't leave your fucking house with $20.00?" The wife loves when I go off like that. Yeah I look like a nut job, but it got the manager over to fix the issue. When I explained I now missed 10 minutes of the movie and will never return to that complex again, they gave us 1/2 off lol. Movie still sucked anyway. Had some fat bitch who kept turning on her phone and texting someone while sitting next to me. I leaned over and told her "Look if your boyfriend has no shown up by now, it's cause he don't want to. Turn the phone off!" She moved lol.

Your inane responses have progressivly become a regurgitation of the post at best. Reminds me of Fillipino to Engrish. Or are you one of those "dedicated" employees that I would work with that is in fact a freshly educated design school grad that is furiously working for 6 clients in an 8 hour span? |

Some of those were *really* interesting.
Especially the one about the super-earth. Imagine if we found humanoid life on that planet. Now imagine that it was still in the stages of Neanderthal Man. What do you think we'd do? Introduce ourselves and get our own cave paintings of men in rocketships or just leave them be and watch and learn? Docholly, a link to the source for each of those right by the factoid would've been really helpful and interesting, rather than the clump of them at the bottom of the post. Great list! |
