You quickly become the Excel guy if you get caught halfway knowing what you're doing. I remember absolutely mystifying some colleagues with formulas in hidden columns. I haven't bought a copy of office in years but it's still pretty standard on enterprise workstations. A lot of companies would prefer you not put…

The downside of chips is that they're generally sold as a subscription. Luckily you can register any brand microchip at akcreunite.org for a one time fee. Not everyone is going to take a found dog to a vet or shelter so my dogs just have tags with my name, phone #, and email address.

Generally okay but the lining eventually comes un stitched or torn.

I had to wear a suit and tie to work a lot and I just tossed everything in the regular wash. It's not like I buy expensive suits though.

I really only wash my hands because they seem dirty or where it makes a lot of sense like when handling food or when I'm prepping to give myself an injection. I wash my hands after I use the restroom at work out of politeness but I don't think it protects me or anyone else that much in the grand scheme of things. My…

Most places I've worked keep the developers away from touching customer facing servers. Generally speaking, new software developer hires where I've been always struggle most on configuring a development server environment on their workstations and getting familiarized with internal standards and practices. This isn't…

Only AMEX or debit/cash/check

My dad has a tri fold that has all kinds of junk crammed into like George did on that episode of Seinfeld. It's bad. He still has ID cards in it from the 70s. He has to keep rubber bands wrapped around it.

I keep video games installed on a portable hard drive because it takes hours to download at some of the places I visit frequently. Of course, I don't carry this around everywhere. It's just something I'm likely to bring with me if I'm intending to stay overnight or longer. I also prefer to have a several copies of…

You could probably take almost everything out of it and put it into a normal sized motherboard.

I keep my games on a WD passport. The price I pay in loading time is worth it when I don't have to re download on my other machines when I'm away from good internet.

My coworkers better not rub anything on me.

I tried to get pit stains out of a shirt with peroxide. It disintegrated.

I don't wash clothes unless they need it so my pants go until I get something on them.

I just take my pants off when I'm lost

Java was the default language at my school but upper level classes either required something else or gave free range. Ruby was the first language I picked up on my own. I liked it because syntax was kind of flexible. You can use do - end or { curly braces } for code blocks. It just felt like Ruby was easier to work…

I've had facial hair since sixth grade. I shaved every now and then but I mostly kept my patchwork beard through high school and have only been clean shaven once as an adult. My head is shaped like a block and a beard makes it look like I have a chin.

Medications that change the color of urine make me want to get on probation so I can hand over cups of my flamboyant fluid and insist that I'm not on anything.
