All right. I was having a pretty good morning. Slept late. Made a tasty sammich for breakfast. Feelin' good about yesterday's final, and today's should be was a breeze. Then, Em posted:
LJ is about to do something really fucking stupid: They're about to institute a code change that requires accounts to choose either "male" or "female" and strip out the "Unspecified" option.
>__<
Since then, the Russians have backpedaled like woah, trying to say that they had NEVER intended for that code to be used or seen. Uh-huh. Sure. But let's say that's true -- LJ is one of the exceptions in this. From facebook to university registration, this problem slaps us in the face all the time. FORTUNATELY, I'm in too good a mood right now to ruin it by giving the full rant. I shall simply waggle a stern finger at LJ and say be careful. We are a loud and bitchy clientele, and we's watchin' you.
In other new: Thank you, Jesus, for making science really easy to learn via uncomfortably snug pants. My finals are over, and they went well. :) Teacher also said that my bug collection was one of the best he had seen and was impressed because of how much I hate nature. Let it be known to all, *I HATE NATURE.* Icky, creepy, crawling things that bite and sting and ooze. *___* Ick. Give me poop any day. I would rather be in a lab with a pile of POOP looking for parasites than outside in green stuff and non-temperature-controlled air with a net wondering where the hell all the concrete went and what the hell was that in the bushes that just made that noise????
