stuff that amuses me at work

[lotus0kid]

I've been doing a lot of research on local companies recently, and that has involved going through a list of all the companies on CareerBuilder (argh). So far, I've come across some really interesting ones:

1. GenCorp- "I leave for ten minutes and Evil Co. is in shambles!" Actually, I'm not sure if I should be surprised or not that there's a company called the same thing as the antagonistic corporation from Time Chasers.
2. Alpha & Omega Publishing- Somehow the fact that it would be a Christian publishing company run by two crazy composite Actives makes it even better.
3. ASCAP- "We're agents Boetticher and Kennedy from American Shrimp and Crab Amalgamated Processors. Law enforcement branch." You know, I always thought MM saying they don't use the acronym for copyright reasons was a joke because ASCAP sounds like "ass cap," but it turns out ASCAP also stands for the American Society of Composers, Authors, & Publishers, sooo...

ETA: Lost tonight! Oh boy! fadeintodawn, gelatinous_goat, I know it won't be the same as when we were all hanging out in the common room, but if you guys happen to be on the computer tonight and want to watch it with me, I think we could do a great pseudo discussion post.

*snort* Indeed.

aww I would love to but unfortunately I have to work tonight. and lost airs at a different time here :( I will be there in spirit!

Haha, I haven't watched Lost with anyone in, like, years. I've gotten used to just sitting there being quietly surprised when something exciting happens. :P But yay for Season 6! \o/

I'm DVRing Lost to watch at a later point, since Mom might watch it and Brian has the tv. Plus, I haven't yet decided if I'm going to watch it week by week or in clumps, since I don't know if I can take Jack and Kate every week without you guys. ;)

Eeee! Here we go! I've been reading ack_attack's ongoing posts and now I'm all jazzed.

What the-? Desmond... what're you doing there?

[saena17.livejournal.com]

Ahaha, what in the world?? The island is underwater? WTF?

[saena17.livejournal.com]

This is the 3rd time we've seen this death scene, and every time it makes me sadder and sadder. :(

[saena17.livejournal.com]

OK, so how do the non-crashing plane, the underwater island, and this intersect? Because Jack can't be on the plane and on the island at the same time...

Oh my goodness, me and Hurley just said "How do you know that?" at exactly the same time.

God bless Hurley, the perfect audience proxy.

Oh no, Parallel!Jin's back to being a controlling jerkwad. Lame.

[saena17.livejournal.com]

OK, so is Locke not paralyzed in this universe, or is he lying to Boone? Either one's possible.

[saena17.livejournal.com]

Poor Ben, always out of the loop with those island deities.

CHARLIE! Oh. Well. Great. *goes back into mourning*

[lotus0kid.livejournal.com]

Guh. Screw everyone who doesn't like Juliet/Sawyer. They're adorable.

[saena17.livejournal.com]

Well, there goes my "this is the in-between until Juliet triggers the bomb" theory. I'm never right about these things.

"I just wanted you to be able to go home." Oh, Juliet! :(

[lotus0kid.livejournal.com]

I really have no idea who these guys with the guns are. I've been perplexed by them since they showed up.

Oooh! Hi, smoke monster!

[saena17.livejournal.com]

Hey, it's the Black Cloud of Electrical Doom! (Why do all of my descriptions of things have "of doom" attached to the end of them?)

[saena17.livejournal.com]

What did she say? I couldn't tell.

[saena17.livejournal.com]

This is breaking my heart. But of course she would die before saying her really important thing. Of course.

[lotus0kid.livejournal.com]

Arrrrgh. Up a Charlie, down a Juliet. -_-.

Oh shit, Jack better watch his back now.

[lotus0kid.livejournal.com]

Hee. Hi, Greg Grunberg's voice!

[saena17.livejournal.com]

This new, reworked flight where the characters reach L.A. should be a happy thing. But it just feels so sad.

[saena17.livejournal.com]

You know, I keep trying to do a Lost rewatch (this is the second time in a year I've started it) but I'm thinking maybe I should wait on it until the series finale. I'm just going to want to see it all over again once I know how it ends.

[saena17.livejournal.com]

Wait, is this a 2-hour episode? I had no idea.
