Help!
« on: December 23, 2003, 04:04:42 PM »
I'm trapped in an office and I can't get out! They keep coming closer and closer, everyone is watching.

I'm going to make a break for the door...if I don't make it, send my ceramic snowman to the mail room...maybe he can get out alive...

:notes the ominous tone in Gelf's writing:

Hrm, I'm guessing it's some sort of "not good" thing. Like a "whoa, some guy is a moron and posted something stupid so we should entropy him" thing.

Well, being as things haven't been explained to me, I'll just do what I always do...make things up.

Let's break it down...Entropy
Ent - A tree being from LotR that watches the other trees and whoops arse on Saruman.

Ro - Hrm, this is a bit more difficult, but I'm guessing it was derived from Everquest...Solusek Ro, god of Fire...

py - ez, obviously this is 3.1459...etc.

So...that didn't help at all...but if it is something against completely random posts then /shrug. w/e


Hrm, or entropy is an admin...and I'm just retarded...
(and I know it's Pi, not py...it's a joke)

Actually, the Ro refers to Ensign Ro Laren, from Star Trek TNG. So it's worse than you think.

My heart goes out to you, and to your snowman, and to anyone else stuck inside of an office when they really should be at home playing Warcraft 3 with me. Maybe if you explain it to your boss that way, he'll let you leave early.

Ode to the 12 hour standard Military hoiday Watch rotation.

1800 to 0600 In a poorly lit command center,
Dishes, some filled with pasta, and crumped paper coffee cups now empty of their precious ambrosia.
Silent conversations, the occasional ring, and a crippled internet. All my gifts are wrapped, I could be at home watching my extended Two Towers. Alas Its not meant to be.

Never mind that entropy is energy that can't be used, a measure of disorder in a closed system if you will, according to Thermodynamics (most importantly, the second law).

In any case, Dinodynamo, you should write to Dr. Se with your troubles, and stop eating the cookies with the green spots on them.
