"The stone cannot know why the chisel cleaves it. The iron cannot know why the fire scorches it. When thy life is cleft and scorched; when death and sadness leap at thee, beat not thy breast and curse thy evil fate. But thank The Builder for the trials which shape thee."

From Thief: The Dark Project

Used to work at a casino as security and while recording employees with coin to fill the machines, we had to sign our name and employee number on literally hundreds of slips per day.

I have signed my employee number on rent checks and even some Christmas and birthday cards without even realizing it.

We also had to clear our hands by showing front and back of hands to the surveillance camera.

I've unthinkingly cleared my hands on many occasions while shopping and putting something back on the shelf.

It took me literally years to break those habits and I still occasionally fight to not sign my employee number.

America is becoming one of those Third World shit holes Trump talked about way back when.

I'm so glad I'm Canadian. I'll just watch the flames from across the border.

If you like that, here's the Total Eclipse of the Heart literal video, which I also find hilarious.

I write screenplays for fun.

I've written a bunch of short films and one day maybe one will get produced.

I'm also kind working on a historical drama feature film.

I really enjoy the creative process and don't truly care if I ever sell one it get one produced.

OMG I thought I might be the only one!

I do this too and it drives everyone nuts but it's so much better!

Only thing is sometimes I miss a snot rocket that goes astray.

I have to keep scrolling further and further back every year on age verification for websites.

I work in travel insurance claims. I'm in a third party administrator for underwriters. When you're on a trip and you get hurt or get sick, you give us a call and we get a claim started for you.
