Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
Steph--I ended up buying a tie from that site you said Tim was shopping from.
You can thank Jilli for that. She linked it in a Gothic Charm School post once, and I've had it bookmarked since then, waiting for a reason to buy him a fancy tie. (My other choice was the ampersand tie, because it seemed fitting for a wedding.)
Unrelatedly, now that I've eaten the bourbon fudge, I have a headache. I call no fair.

Cyberoptix makes wonderful ties. I saw this tie from Binarywinter at ECCC and am KICKING myself for not having purchased it at the show.

Definitely not fair!
I took some allergy meds I was certain were non-drowsy, but it turns out they are not. Naturally this happens on a day when I decide to be good and drink water instead of Diet Coke...
I just realised I'd made a tumblr ties shopping post, and went back to see who the vendor was, and...Cyberoptix for the continued win. I was supposed to buy the circuit board ties for instance. I don't think I want them in brass colour, but, DUDE. I definitely should wear that to work next business formal day...

Awesome!

Oh, I seriously need that circuit board scarf in kelly green.
Workplace venting: Dude, you don't get a vote on these terms! You are not part of the terminology board! Your part in the process is to give dev feedback and context on proposed terms when we ask for it. I'm (not) sorry that you feel "left out of the meetings where the actual decision was made", but that's not your role.
P.S. Your role is also not being an argumentative asshat, but I've been told that no one has been able to change your mind about that. YET.
I am spending basically all day trying to find someone willing to accept responsibility for a decision I'll gladly make, but don't have the authority to. I need questions answered, and direction chosen.
And I got zip.
