Scatterbrained and friendly optimist. Always happy to give my (unasked for) opinion :)

Pardon my rambling and broken English, I know I often sound like an alien trying to impersonate a human being.

  • This was in the beginning of May as well. It looked really gorgeous, but some of the flowers (tulips especially) were already wilting.I think a week or so earlier would've been even nicer, though the weather was really good that day.

  • What's your biggest debuff?

    Jump

  • Inattentive adhd. My mind likes to go on little vacations.

  • Did you ever get almost fired from a job?

    Jump

  • They had to cut down the company from 15 to 8 employees due to a big client leaving.I was one of those seven that needed to go. But one of those that got to stay had a year long sabbatical planned and decided to take it earlier. This allowed me to stay, but I only got to hear this about a week or two before I had to go.

    I already had some second job interviews planned and attended these anyway for fun. I wasn’t rude, but definitely a lot more casual than your usual applicant :)

  • Some text-based games to play at work?

    Jump

  • That used to be my slacking off game at my first real job. I'd ssh into my computer at home and sneakily play Nethack whenever I got bored. Either that or browse websites with Links.This was around 2007 and way outside my comfort zone as far as computers were concerned. I felt like such a hacker at the time :)

    I don’t think this summary matches the article. Or something is very wrong in Finland right now.

  • Is he calling him Mark Nato yet?

  • Wow, this gorgeous! I love the detail and composition.

  • What does everyone here do when you can’t sleep and are wide awake besides being on phone? [serious]

    Jump

  • I take a random number around 800 and start to count backwards in increments of 7. It’s kind of tedious and drowns out my other thoughts. I don’t think I’ve ever made it to zero :)

    Of course you should use bigger numbers if your math skills are better.

  • People who made a single terrible financial decision that still haunts you to this day - how did it happen?

    Jump

  • I worked too long for a job that paid way below average. Thinking I didn’t deserve any better.

  • What's the worst you ever hurt yourself as a kid?

    Jump

  • A flowerpot fell on my head when I was little, on my forehead.The thing is, I don’t remember this ever happening. There’s a photo of me with a giant bandage, and I still have a scar in the form of some dented skin. But I can’t recall anything from that time.Maybe it’s because I was like 2 or 3 years old or something. But I find it a little bit unsettling that my memory is a blank.

  • Ohh, I wouldn’t mess with that Orange Laddie.You’d better forfeit this one Banan Boi.

  • What book(s) are you reading right now and recommend for others?

    Jump

  • I’m busy working my way through Steven Erikson’s Malazan Book of the Fallen series.It’s a very dense set of books with a ton of lore, but I’m enjoying it a lot (I’m at the sixth one so far).

    The only downside is that I read them on an e-reader and can’t quickly look at all the detailed maps and glossaries whenever I want.

  • Honestly, last time I was in urgent I would've loved some taco bell

  • It's Half-Way to X-Mas so I made a comic about it!
