They say Xanax is addictive but I’ve found that once you hit 10mg you can stave off the desire to make the dosage higher by simply taking more frequent 10mg dosages throughout the day. Addiction averted!

It’s not OCD. Waffles just taste better if every square has butter in it.

Tick tock January 31, 2014 8:48 am

It’s the last day of the month
I’ve never felt so fucked
Deadlines loom
Choices to be made
Life goes on
Day by day
Future becomes the past
Days go too fast
Opportunities missed
Obligation in the way
Watching kids grow up
What would Chapin say
Tick tock
Another beat of the clock
Time is an illusion
Created by man
Used to fill the void
Used to drive us mad
Disproven by physicists
We exist all at once
Until observed
Then we’re fucked.

You might be a programmer if…
…you’ve ever sat at your desk, computer in one hand, pot of coffee in the other, and considered wearing an adult diaper.

Student: Why do they frustrate me so?
Master: Are you sure they are the cause of your frustration?
