That is the truth!

You are a sweety, Oly. You are also in IT and like me, probably have not actually seen a piece of paper in approximately three years. Can I get a delivery boy instead?

Sure, but I'd be moving from Ballard.

I feel your pain brother. I have a Master's and I been getting turned down. Hurts. I feel like I am getting rejected for prom or something. I'm going soft in my old age.

I do PM work in IT. With my clothes on.

Somewhere not so predictable?

Different industry I guess.

I'm looking for some input from you guys on how to better find a fucking job. So far, I have followed up with a few possibilities with the following correspondance: Subject: Human Resources Dear Hiring Manager, Thank you for your letter of January 16. After careful consideration, I regret to inform you that I am unable to accept your refusal to offer me a position in your department at this time. This year I have been particularly fortunate in receiving an unusually large number of rejection letters. With such a varied and promising field of candidates, it is impossible for me to accept all refusals. Despite your company's outstanding qualifications and previous experience in rejecting applicants, I find that your rejection does not meet my needs at this time. Therefore, I will assume the position in your department this February. I look forward to seeing you then. Best of luck in rejecting future applicants. Sincerely, Interviewee However, I am not sure I am getting my point across. Suggestions?

That is fucking awful. And you guys wonder why "women are crazy". Fucking disgusting. She was sixteen for god's sake. For the next couple of years she'll have to listen to guys telling her to "get over it" or "deal with you baggage" and various other shallow worthless platitudes. Meanwhile, the ex-cop goes on to mollest your seven year old daughter.

Why can't men be like that? All patient and orderly.

It could be worse. They could have shot your dog with your gun.

Yes and no... if wildlife officials can quell human fears of animals that have gotten "the taste of blood" then perhaps they can quell the redneck desire to poach and shoot animals at random. Up here bear attacks are really common and a very pragmatical approach is taken towards them: if the bear attacked unprovoked then the bear is shot. If the bear attacked because of natural reactions (protecting it's young, human in the trail etc.) then the attack is justified and the bear isn't killed. If no bears were killed every redneck would just assume that every bear was out to kill him and many more would be shot. It's stupid to treat bears and cougars like criminals - but the public buys it and are to an extent thus willing to tolerate the presence of large predators. Now that makes sense.

We should also get rid of all the useless riff raff and round up to the nearest human.

They both look delicious.

Eeewww

Oh right, how could I have missed it. I didn't recognize the subtlety in the statement nor did I "read between the lines" to get its deep and meaningful compliment. And I understand your reaction to feel sorry; you are indeed a sorry creature. But you certainly don't need to apologize for the way I see things. Even though I'm just a woman, (one who hasn't even fulfilled the requirement for respect--babymaking) I do have right to my own opinion.

That's how they become leaders That's when they get labeled dictator

Minx...my main reason for being pleased I am not a woman primarily falls into the fact that I am a wimp. After watching my child be born, I realize the strength of a woman is so far beyond me. I am thankful I will never have to do that. You rock for doing it! 5) The predictable patronization to womankind just b/c they give birth.

Ahh....someone must have left the Song of Solomon out of her Bible then Oh please. One book about sex (which let's not forget is necessary to produce sons) in the middle of the Bible just doesn't counterbalance the constant anti-woman messages throughout the rest of the book. And yes, I've read it all the way through. More than once.

Yes, we do have mechanisms that support the rights of women. But those which are supposed to be protecting us from men don't work.

I don't get the contradiction between these two beliefs: 1. Women are so evil, they shouldn't be touched with a ten foot pole 2. Men shouldn't love other men (in intimate ways). At least the Greeks were logical and considered man-man love far superior to man-woman love.

Take that, fucker.

I liked that movie! And she is hot, even with the lame hair. What's his face is not hot, even when he had hair.

and go right past her.
