Um.. yuk

So Im bored and decide to listen to some Bad Brains.. for S&Gs and to give it a fair shake, put on the RISE CD.

Yuk.

The title track seems like a BB wannabe band.. more like a old production demo before HR left.. cuz this song is the closest to claasic Brains.. and thats the best this album has to offer. the rest is just.. yuk.

Could have been worse.. I could find my copy of God of Love.

So now Im thinking if I should avoid the next one and leave my precious memories of the brains intact.

IM.. the new annoyance

Does anyone find this tool just a bit annoying?

Im at work and I go to lunch or have the DND/idle flag up. Someone messages me. and it goes something like..

"HEY"
"WHere R U?"
"HELLOOOOOO"
"Why dont you talk to me?"

Its very interesting at work when I pass another persons' PC and I see a dozen or so boxes saying these things.

anyway... Duh? business hours? Work? DND/Idle flags?

If someone has been inactive for over an hour, take that as a clue.

IM is not a phone. Yet most people expect instant replies nor expect constant attention like it is. I expect them to be doing 2-3 other things as well.. downloading porn, watching the hippest movie off of bit torrent and playing mahjong.

Chill out, IM users.. just fucking call if you need to talk so bad.
