Much better to base your life and actions on some ridiculous notion of a sky faerie rather the logical arguments put forward by living individuals who can be challenged and debated with.

Just to be the oil on troubled waters for a change, I would point out that we have a number of differing religious viewpoints within our little membership, so I try to avoid comments which denigrate others beliefs.

Yeah. I think wheeling out the old sarcastic sky-fairy response just seems needlessly antagonistic on such a small close-knit forum. No need for it really.

Indeed. Nobody is going to convince each other to any point of view when it comes to their views on religion so I'd rather we just left the subject alone instead of antagonising each other over it please.

Team America - World Police. It's not that it was a bad film, I quite enjoyed it at the time, it's just that whenever you see Americans referencing it, they completely ignore the fact that it was meant to be satirical. "America, Fuck Yeah!" has become their unofficial national anthem on sites like Reddit. You can't remind such people of this without suffering a flurry of downvotes.

First, SalesForce.

Second, anyone dumb enough to wait until the week of go-live to begin training of people on SalesForce who then expresses disbelief at opinions that people are not ready for SalesForce.

My workplace Responsible Adult is a fucking moron.

The rare times I’m forced to use SalesForce are pure misery. It’s like the developers took everything wrong with Sharepoint and amplified the pain.

Insomnia. 3 hours sleep the night before last. 5 hours last night. Doing really great this week!

Got quite a bit of painting done, however, so there's some plusses. ¬_¬

I sympathise with that. I've had two near-sleepless nights in the last week due to high anxiety, brought on by two separate acts of utter selfishness from two separate people. I tried every trick in the book to take my mind off it, with zero success. It's a weird thing that the more tired you are, the harder it is to sleep, I imagine because your body starts to run on adrenaline.

I think part of it is also because I've had 2 days holiday in the last 6 months, so I'm completely fried. :lol: If I can get to next Thursday then I've got 18 days off. All I want for Christmas is sleep!

I had 6.5 hours last night, so I'm slowly building up. Was in quite a grumpy mood when I woke, though I think this was enhanced by some aches and pains I've been having in my neck and shoulders this week, as well as some weird rash that's broken out on my neck and upper left arm. :?

Foxes screaming and cats fucking or fighting sets the local dogs off barking. I'm a very light sleeper so this nightly chorus of animal music is a tad grating.

Cunts :x

Cats fucking.. That is the worst noise. Or in the summer when you have to have the window open and you get woken up by sheep randomly wandering my estate.

Also this noise. Sounds like a small child crying, hearing this at 3am from a deep sleep is no fucking joke!

I had to pause that video at the halfway mark to give my own cat a chance to calm down.
