Random Rants

We had a guy ask @Freeman today if we were going to make an A2 with a mohair collar.

When Freeman said, probably not. The guy then asked for a list of the suppliers of the mohair, whipcord etc etc and for the patterns of the N1 and the A2, so he could make his own.

I think Freeman was quite polite.

My answer would have been just 2 words. Get would have been one of them....

@Giles …bent??

@goosehd I work in a University and I had one of my learners fall for this scam this week. The poor soul went so far as to print a check that the scammer sent to them. He then proceeded to bring it to his bank and cash it. Of course now his bank account has been closed and he's come crying to us about "what can you do?" etc. How do you tell an adult to not be so damn gullible? Who in their right mind would think a check you printed off your HP all in one is going to be valid?

[goosehd]

@GardenState …to be honest, I assumed that everyone knew of that scam by now.

[Giles]

It's a scam, not according to this?

[GardenState]

@Giles Ah, shit! I have to go answer some emails be back in a bit!

[goosehd]

…now I’m starting to wonder if the penis enlargement emails and offers really work.

[Giles]

No

[goosehd]

@Giles Is that from experience from taking said supplements? Or is bent the wrong fill in the blank from your previous post?

[Giles]

It was supposed to be a humorous response to the Penis enlargement comment. And you know bent was wrong....

@Giles He‘s Canadian, he’s not used to such foul language

[goosehd]

@Tago-Mago That’s not fair as I have used “darn it to heck” in a sentence once.

We’re cool like the rest of the world…

@goosehd the 1950s called, they want their lingo back

[Giles]

He's a fucking Virginian.......

[Tago Mago]

@Giles but he has two kids? I’m confused

[GardenState]

@Giles I thought this said "He's a fucking virgin" and I was thinking "how Canadian of him"

[goosehd]

[Tago Mago]

Fucking Virgin is an oxymoron if I ever saw one

[Giles]

Yeah, all arse about tit....

[goosehd]

…but what you don’t understand is the process to becoming a Canadian citizen. I had to renounce the imperial measuring system, use Eh in a sentence properly, chug a litre of maple syrup, and take a niceties exam. I almost failed that part where the examiner rants about politics, religion, and racism for an hour and you can’t tell them to fuck off…
