And nope, the Villains tourney will be my last one for awhile. Unless people demand another.

It was a joke. A bit of friendly teasing. Don't take offense.

I know what you mean, I was just saying, you seemed to take the joke and make it all very serious like you were annoyed slightly.

When someone falls and busts their ass. After people laugh a bit, they walk over to you and ask: Are you Ok?

Yep. Just spectacular. :cool:

When you're listening to your MP4 player, walking along, and someone says "Hey, is that yours?"

You see a person with pack of smokes and lighter in hand, dressed for cold weather, walking toward a door:

"You going for a smoke break?"

one of the stupidest questions i ever heard was from a hardware engineer 4 when I worked for enterasys. this one requires a bit of setup.

Enterasys is like a small version of Cysco, they make networking equipment and software; you know, what the internet essentially exists on. The ranking in the company goes like this: 1 2 3 4, pretty simple. An engineer 4 is a senior level engineer, meaning they have been working with routers, switches hubs and all manner of networking equipment for over 10 years AT LEAST.

So i get a call from a guy and look him up. Engineer 4. In all seriousness he asks:
"Is the server with the internet on it down? I can't get to my home email."

problem number 1 is minor: dont waste company resources (IE, helpdesk personel) because you cant reach your personal email, we dont care.

The big one is, this man managed to put in over 10 years designing and building hardware for the internet and HAS NO IDEA HOW IT WORKS.

For the 2 maybe 3 people who are reading this and may not know, the internet is a collection of servers, switches, hubs, routers, cables and half a million other pieces of equipment scattered all over the world. Not on a server in one building where itmight come to a crashing end because someone spills a glass of water.

I hate the stupid questions people ask because they have no idea how to start a conversation, but feel the need to strike up polite conversation, yet only create akward silence:

"hot enough for ya?"
"cold enough for ya?"
"Do you think it will stop raining?"

Please, just shut up if you have nothing substantial to say.

So...nice weather we're having, huh?
