So I just spent the last I don't know how long making a couple of stencils. I just went out to paint them onto the shirts, and what do I find? I have 2 child size XLs instead of normal XLs. Grrrrrr.

Dear self,
STOP looking at FlatBoi's "Facebook". You have seen those annoying yet mind-numbingly cute pictures of him for only God-knows-how-many times! I get it, you have a crush on the poor guy but it seems kind of time-wasting that you connect to the internet just to look at those same-old pics for almost half an hour. Seriously, just study for your midterms or something!
Much concern on hormones,
Your frontal lobe, amygdala and primary visual cortex (w/c is located on the occipital lobe...)
Okay, that was weird...
Dear Introverted self,
You should really go out more.
Much concern,
The sheltered girl with no social life.

Embarassing Admission
It wasn't until Pearl Harbor (the movie) that I realized the name Rafe I'd been reading in romance novels was pronounced "Rayf" and not "Raf-ee".
What have you been pronouncing wrong forever? :P

Be blinded by my awesomeness!!
I went to watch Kung Fu Panda yesterday, and it was a pretty good movie with some laughs and plenty of Kung Fu action :D ASIANS ARE THE ULTIMATE~! Only thing which could have made it better was if Monkey (voiced by Jackie Chan) had got a couple more speaking lines in the film - the dude is like one of the most famous martial artists, and he gets what? 4-5 lines?
You know who I would have liked to see voice one of the characters? Jason David Frank - he would have some of the BEST karate cries!
In other news, I'm on School Holidays for three weeks, and probably need to write some more fanfic, mainly fics for Souta-kun's ![[info]](http://p-stat.livejournal.com/img/community.gif) 10_themes - I'm suffering from a little bit of Writer's Block at the moment, still trying to figure out what to do with some of the themes that I've been given...

I work as a front end coordinator at a grocery store on the East Coast. Yesterday, one of my cashiers flashed her light and she looked a little upset. Apparently, before I got there, her customer, a middle aged guy with his kid, handed her a bottle slip (we have bottle return machines, and when you are done with them, they spit out a receipt that you hand to the cashier for either your money from returning the bottles or it is applied to your order). This is what happened before(as relayed to me by my cashier) and then when I got there.
C-cashier
CM-complete moron
M-me
CM: I have a bottle slip
C: Um, this looks different, I'm not sure how to put this in.
CM: Are you kidding me? It's a bottle slip. Did you just start today or something?
C: Actually, I've been here for 6 months, but hold on I'll get my manager over here *flashes her light*
CM: This is so ridiculous. I didn't realize doing your job was so hard for you.
Enter me, cheerfully, though he looks irate, and my cashier looks slightly battered.
M: Hey there, what can I do for you?
CM: I just gave this cashier a bottle slip I got out of your machine, and she can't figure out how to put it through. I think maybe she needs a little bit better training before dealing with the public.
M: OK, C, can I see the bottle slip? *examines it for a moment, there is obviously something wrong* Um, sir this is a Barnes and Noble receipt.
CM ....... *followed by glaring at his daughter* what is wrong with you? Uh sorry, she must have grabbed the wrong paper. *Walks away yelling at his 6 or 7 year old daughter.
Oh, and a quick question....what could possibly be the circumstances that would lead someone to leave a clear bulk food container filled with poop (tipped over and leaking, I might add) in a grocery cart? Just wondering.

The following is NOT the correct response to "I need to see your ID, please"...
1) Your partner-in-crime offering hers, when she is not the buyer.
2) You huffing about the previous customer taking up time with her tobacco request
3) Grunting your D-O-B
4) Telling me I'm being a dick about following the law
5) Asking for a manager, then storming off after shouting "Shove it up your ass!"
I didn't appreciate you leaving the bag of ice behind, either, since it got mixed in with the next guy's order. And he didn't say anything until after being cashed out. And he didn't even speak English!

I just wanna be sure I'm not reading into anything...
When you look at this sequence of caps, what do you think is going on in the princess's head? Granted, it is out of context, but the movie is famous enough that most people have seen it at least once, or at least know the general story it's based off of.
Because there is something very specific I think she goes through in this scene (which allows Maleficent to take advantage of her, etc) and I just wanna be sure I'm not the only one seeing it. :/ I might pose this question at the comm if I need to.

the best sibsets
in your opinion, what are the best sibsets you've encountered in real life?
my favorites are:
- anna & tess
- amy lauren, timothy ryan, alexander corey & caroline elyse - i'm not too fond of amy, lauren, or corey, but i think in general the first names all flow well together.

Suing Over Bleu Cheese
Sooooo, I'm new to this community, but not a day into being a member here, I had a rather foolish customer try to pull some shit on me, because he was "with" (not actually with, just stalking) two pretty girls. I work at a medium service cafe/bakery/marketplace type thing, and have only worked there for almost two weeks. I'm a newbie, but if I had been an old face, I would have not hesitated to be blunt in this situation. Instead, I stayed calm, and focused.
So I had just rang up two girls, and near the end of the the transaction, this guy cuts into their conversation, and insistently asks them about our chopped salad. They give it a thumbs up, he walks away with them, then comes back to order.
Me: = me.
DS: dipshit.
DS: I'd like a chopped salad, no bleu cheese.
Me: I'm sorry sir, but that salad is pre-made in the morning, and packaged. We cannot remove the bleu cheese.
DS: *snerk* So, what? You can't do it?
Me: No, sir, the salads are pre-made.
At this point he walks back over to the girls, and they tell him to say they just got it made that way. Then tell him to start a fight. They actually encouraged his behavior.
DS: So...wait. What if I'm allergic to it? Can you take it off?
Me: *BRAINPOP* No, sir, we can't.
DS: And what if I went to the hospital? And I sued you? What if I sued you?
Me: That...wouldn't be...good. *just blinks*
DS: Whatever. I'll take the salad.
Me: *rings him up, feeling ill due to the stupid aura* Thank you, and have a good afternoon.
DS: Yeah, I certainly hope i don't get sick. I'll have to sue you.
If this had been my last job, I would have told him it is not wise to get something that would make you sick, but I don't know what constitutes as fair, and bad customer service yet. No, jerkoff, we're not going to a) remake it, nor will we b) pick out little bits of bleu cheese for you. We make good tips, and good money, and we don't particularly need your patronage. He was a jerk, merely to look cute for the girls who wouldn't have fucked him anyway. ~sighs~
I told my manager about it, and she made a very serious note to tell me if a customer -knows- what is in something, and eats it anyway, they can't sue. I know my fellow employees told me about this crappola, but that was middle school antics at best. It is expected that we, as cashiers and counterpersons are kind and respectful. Why can't customers be this same way?
Whatever. I got $50 in tips for two days today, AND I rung up Kanye West's order (I don't particularly like Kanye, it was just fun to know I talked with somebody my stupid ex would probably kill to meet, and schmooze with). That asshole couldn't spoil my day.

Searching for screenies.
Are there any online archives of Sailor moon screenshots? I'm in serious need of Icon material, or if anyone has screenshots specifically of the Amazon Trio it would be very much appreciated.
Thank you in advance.
