Randomosity

Random bits from my notepad file at work (155k and counting...)

Wow. My brain? Thinks wet produce has something to do with porn. Help.

...ok, so, did you know that a produce area with lots of space is a bad thing? I suppose this guy just, like, assumes that it means the produce will go nuts and grow tentacles and start feeding on the shoppers, if, say, it has room...

Oh, god. If I have to type in a complaint from someone who owns their own business and is a good customer, and can't grammatize/spell properly.... Aaaargh. Americans are so fucking stupid. and illiterate. Oh my GOD is this country illiterate.

Please note that the outbreak has been contained. The virus has been identified as Beagle.AO or Bagle.AC. The firewall detection engine has been updated, so zip files will again be permitted through e-mail.

Words can NOT express how much a virus called 'beagle' made me laugh. Thanks to nos'... And I so can't explain it's because Daniel gave Jack a dog to prove his love.

We got a comment card from Kathryn Parker today. And I kept thinking, "But you're dead! You're dead and buried! And, ohmigod! What will Miss Parker think. And, I bet Jarod knows about this... Heheheheh." And then I actually read the card, and the woman was a whiny bitch, so I knew it wasn't Miss Parker's mother...

...just read 'Midway' as McKay... Damn you, nos'.

'when store is busy, provide additional cashiers to cull patrons waiting in line'....

OK. Can someone explain to me the point of vegetarian meats? It suddenly occured to me, y'know, to wonder about them. The point of vegetarianveganism, or what have you is to stop cruelty to animals and not eat meat... And yet you want to eat things that TASTE like meat... Somewhere, my logic must be faulty, because this strikes me as, well... stupid. Hrm.

*raises hand*

I like vegetarian meat stuff...

Totally raised on tofu pups and seitan. Mmm. Am no longer vegetarian, but still like that stuff better than meat in most cases...

I think a lot of people like fake meat stuff in order to use it in traditional recipes. Or to persuade members of their family who are *not* vegetarian :) And cuz it tastes good.

Aha.

And I think I had just done, like, six cards from people who were all "Meat sucks, get more veggie stuff with meat flavor." So.. it disturbed me.

Hmm. Yes. When put like that, I too am disturbed.

What will Miss Parker think.

Random question here, but did we EVER learn her first name? (And was I the only amused by the fact that the actress that played her is named Andrea Parker?)

I'm not a vegetarian, but I can tell you that avoiding cruelty is not the only reason to be one. There's also that 10% efficiency thing that may motivate such a diet - in order to produce one pound of beef, you've gotta feed a cow ten pounds of grain. Therefore, it's more efficient to just have people eat the ten pounds of grain, and let the cow go hungry.

Oh, and I think Miss Parker's first name was "Angus". No, wait...
