Obā-san · 2014-10-01 21:56:01

Imipolex G · 2014-10-01 21:57:30

cool, thanks

Hexartes · 2014-10-01 22:06:53

I wrote a paper so fuckawful that my English teacher had to outsource its grading to another teacher

I say it in a vaguely humorous way but I genuinely was on the verge of tears when I heard it

Hexartes · 2014-10-01 22:07:13

First post made with new avatar/signature. Whatevs

I dunno, maybe "wasted" isn't the right way to express it

But it feels shitty that I was forcing myself to get up at "normal person" hours to work a job where I didn't fit in instead of just not working and being able to stay up as late as I wanted >_>

Shhh.

Repeat after me. Resume. Fodder.

Bleh, and if it's not Koch-sucking oil companies shilling on WTOP, it's militaristic ads for defense contractors on Verizon's local loop. :P SIEG HEIL, PRAISE GLORIOUS MOTHERLAND and all that totalitarian rot.

Yarrun XIX · 2014-10-01 23:59:33

I've gotten a lot of ads complaining about some chap in Colorado who's taking away jobs or summat

Sredni Vashtar · 2014-10-02 00:16:20

I find it interesting that Germany is one of the few places that personifies its homeland in masculine rather than feminine terms—the Fatherland versus Mother Russia, etc.

Klinotaxis · 2014-10-02 00:20:00

what about england, or the US half the time

(US confirmed for bigender)

Imipolex G · 2014-10-02 00:25:12

Uncle Sam, that old greedy bastard

Yarrun XIX · 2014-10-02 00:30:52

US is plural. It's allowed to have multiple genders.

Princess Alice · 2014-10-02 00:33:39

Now I'm imagining otherkin who identify as countries

Imipolex G · 2014-10-02 00:34:08

A search for such a thing brought up only parody blogs, but I'm almost certain there is a small but dedicated community for it.

Salix Babylonika · 2014-10-02 00:51:52

I identify as the territorial holdings of The Hanseatic League circa 1338.

why does parsing numbers have to be so hard

Any particular type of number, or...?

Princess Alice · 2014-10-02 01:20:31

Stormy always hated it when I'd call him Cuddly Cuddleston

Wasn't manly enough for him

Princess Alice · 2014-10-02 01:21:07

but what else can you call someone who sits on your lap while you watch My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic and purrs loudly?

Obā-san · 2014-10-02 01:26:36

having actually noticeable muscles will never not be weird to me

Salix Babylonika · 2014-10-02 01:27:46

Obā-san · 2014-10-02 01:35:15

anime character disapproves of physical fitness

lee4hmz · 2014-10-02 01:40:34

I wonder if said character is Marge-growling, too

Haven · 2014-10-02 01:44:58

integers ar ehard enough

floats get into mathematical novelty territory

lee4hmz · 2014-10-02 02:11:14

I'd probably be like "screw it, I'll see how BSD's scanf does it", if it were for my own curiosity and not for a class anyway

Klinotaxis · 2014-10-02 02:12:29

i found out that scanf silently* just returns LONG_MAX or whatever if it's too big

* errno is set, but it counts as successful for scanf's return value

Klinotaxis · 2014-10-02 02:19:10

K&R parameter convention complete with implicit int types

if (len == 0) len = 30000

 139:         if (isdigit(c)
 140:          || base==16 && ('a'<=c && c<='f' || 'A'<=c && c<='F')) {
 141:             ndigit++;
 142:             if (base==8)
 143:                 lcval <<=3;
 144:             else if (base==10)
 145:                 lcval = ((lcval<<2) + lcval)<<1;
 146:             else
 147:                 lcval <<= 4;
 148:             c1 = c;
 149:             if (isdigit(c))
 150:                 c -= '0';
 151:             else if ('a'<=c && c<='f')
 152:                 c -= 'a'-10;
 153:             else
 154:                 c -= 'A'-10;
 155:             lcval += c;
 156:             c = c1;

Salix Babylonika · 2014-10-02 06:44:32

thank you.

Where in Centralia is Carmen Sandiego?

Alright, gumshoes, remember the clues we just heard: University of Centralia, second largest city in the principality, and home of Alicorn Systems.

Is Patty Larceny in: Queen City, Colerain, or Havensborough?

Obā-san · 2014-10-02 11:33:21

I HAVE A SECOND INTERVIEW AT BANANA REPUBLIC TOMORROW. OwO

Klinotaxis · 2014-10-02 11:49:37

soon inane will be gunning down liberation theologians and well paid for it

Obā-san · 2014-10-02 11:52:30

si.

parking sign said:
17th Avenue
All unmarked spaces 15-minute passenger pick-up/drop-off only unless otherwise posted.

...Isn't that a bit redundant? "Unmarked spaces", by definition, already excludes any space with rules posted otherwise.

Imipolex G · 2014-10-02 13:08:02

you forget people are stupid

Imipolex G · 2014-10-02 13:08:20

I shout from the top of the page

Princess Alice · 2014-10-02 13:11:02

hey imi

Imipolex G · 2014-10-02 13:12:23

I dunno, what?
