Warhammer, Geeky and Tech, Geeky, WTF

I will crush you

I will crush you

The Toronto Area had another dramatic lightning storm lastโ€ฆ some areas even had *gasp* tornado warnings! Rain and lightning, ok I get that, but lightning! *cringe* I didnโ€™t hear of any major damage done. Work has been pretty stressful the past few days. Iโ€™ve felt a lot of scrutiny on my work and what I do. My role is still so undefined I often wonder what I should be doing and to what extent I responsible. My boss does provide a fair bit of feedback, but even stillโ€ฆ it isnโ€™t like Iโ€™m coding or creating art which is pretty black and white.

I stayed after work tonight to try out Warhammer 40,000 with some co-worker. (Other co-workers mockingly refer to it as Nerdhammerโ€ฆ Pshaw!) It is a tactical board game with miniatures vaguely like Dungeons & Dragons but not really role play, more like a war board game. It was pretty fun. If it be nerdy then nerd away.

I went to pay for my dinner tonight with my debit card and it was declined. Debt card declined? WTF! I know there is money in the account! So I called the bank as soon as I got home tonightโ€ฆ well apparently my account was compromised! Somehow, somewhere some douche bag added my card number to a list that was going to be fraudulently. Fortunately the card was frozen and nothing was missing. Creepy. Apparently pay-at-the-pump is a risky endeavor for debit, so be careful!

Hilarious Sure it is somewhat sensationalistโ€ฆ but there is more about the points stated hereโ€ฆ and frankly whatever it takes to keep the Republican out for the next four years Iโ€™m willing to deal with. The world (and most importantly the U.S.) needs change not more Republican warmongering.
