I have scripts for copying and moving to a different directory, I have scripts to open files in gedit as me or as root, a script for searching, a script to enqueue files in Audacious, a script to replace the spaces in a file name with “-” (I hate spaces in file names because they […]

I was sure I had this somewhere, but couldn’t find it, so I’ll put it here where I can find it, and if I can manage not to clutter up my Jaunty with stuff I installed “just to see what it does”, I’ll be able to use it for Karmic in October unless I decide […]

“Nice closeup work with a P&S.” I’m not sure whether I’m supposed to be flattered or insulted; what a backhanded fucking compliment! Why didn’t he just say what he meant? “You did okay for having such rubbish equipment.” Unless he’s calling me later today to give me his credit card number and PIN, I guess […]

You can say them the same if you like, but they are two different words and if you ever picked up a fucking book, you’d […]

Well, there went my grand intentions of getting my work done early. I couldn’t get logged into MSN this morning (maybe MS changed the goddamned protocol again to lock out non-MS clients), but thought I’d do a quick check on FB. I happened to notice that L(K) was logged into chat, so I sent a […]
