I told you putting that bottle rocket down your pants and declaring yourself "A Real Boy" was a bad idea...

Were peach and vanilla excluded by the other flavors from National Ice Cream Day? Or do they just think they're better than all the rest? This inability to coexist troubles me...

WTF is C3PO supposed to be USEFUL for anyway, besides whining? Stupid piece of scrap metal would be more useful recycled as a toaster. But even that would suck, because who would want to listen to a whining wussy toaster? Is he gold plated? If that's the case he should just be melted down into gold ingots. Help the economy some, and stop being so damn useless you stupid bucket of bolts! R2 is 1,000 times more useful than your tin man ass, and he's shaped like a salt and pepper shaker FFS!

It's the 7th of July now, and it's not getting any better than the 6th was. :( I think worse is to come.

Not to mention that my normally pristine neighborhood looks like a shithole because of all of the depleted fireworks and juice-boxes (both Coors and Capri-Sun) all over the streets. Gah!

Just wait until NEXT year when instead of 6/6/6 we have to deal with 7/7/7. The devotees of Churchianity will be all busy proclaiming some sort of celebration, I foresee.

And did you know people in France work about 35-37 hours per week and have about 30-35 paid days off (vacation time) per year? :-)

Though all is not so rosy there: they have some unemployment problems, too...

Just one more thing i found with google:
From: someone
Today's German worker averages a 38-hour workweek, and there is a proposal at present to limit working hours to 35 hours a week. Germans have more holidays than Canadians, with at least 12 paid statutory holidays and a minimum of four weeks' paid vacation each year. More than half of all employees are entitled to at least five weeks' vacation. Traditional hours are from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m., but flexible hours are becoming more popular. People do not work on the weekends and keep private life separate from work life.

It just barely became the 9th of July, and already I find myself filled with a sense of impending doom.

This cannot end well.
