How many of you have been asked to write an interface to something so that "anyone" can use it. But instead of using the nice interface you wrote, they still demand that you do it?

Tell me why...

So, I work for a company that supports guests that are staying in hotels. This one just ticked me off to no end. I mean, if you just do what people tell you then generally, things run pretty smoothly.

I was nothing but polite to her and the whole thing stemmed from her doing something that no one had even told her to do.
Now, if the heifer had bothered to call us first (Hello, it works on one floor but not another!!! Can we say hotel infrastructure issue??) she would not have been on the phone no where near as long and would have been able to get back to her online course is whatever the hell it was that she said she was doing.)

From Earlier Today

There is a man. This man looks like other men, in fact, he looks better than most men. He is smooth, he is funny, he is innocuous, and he goes where he likes. This man pays no taxes, pays no rent, and does no work. The only thing that sticks out about this man, the one thing that nobody can ever see is this:

The man is made from pure Stupid.

The Stupid of this man is extreme on levels that you and I will never understand. Religious fundamentalists are less stupid than this man. Extreme feminists and sexists are shamed by the stupid of this man. Politicians hold not a stupid candle to this man. All the infomercials in the world running at once in a room filled with televisions would posess only half the stupid of this man, and it would be interspersed with things that are slightly less stupid, it would be stupidly weak stupid. This man is so stupid that everyone buys into his stupid. He passes through our lives, and we believe he is a good man, a kind man, a smart man. To say he bullshits us doesn't do justice to what this man does, because bullshit is not nearly so refined. You never know you've met this man, because your memory will not hold onto so much stupid.

Unfortunately for us all, this man, the king of stupid, is able to stupid his way into womens pants. Everytime you've seen someone and thought 'why did she go out with him, he's such a dick' those are the stupid children of this stupid man breeding with each other or with other people, bringing forth half breeds of stupid. All these stupid children who walk among us annoy us greatly. Perhaps you've met them. Unfortunately this man, being too stupid to die, has been with us since the beginning of time. Stupiding his way through whole continents of women (and some men) to get his stupid rocks off. That means there's a very good chance you have a little stupid in you.

Most of us deal with it, we have moments of stupid, but it doesn't rule us. Most days the stupid is latent.

Today I am speaking to...
Ninth Generation.
Purebred.
Royalty-level.
STUPID.
PEOPLE.
