OMG, people are stupid

Search that page for 'bathroom' and then try to search ANY or ALL of the last four long forms for a question asking how many bathrooms you have.

Here, I'll give you the links for those too:

2011 (NHS), 2006, 2001, 1996

I'll save you the trouble if you're feeling lazy. No questions about bathrooms. None. The stupid government would have rather pissed everyone off railing about how many invasive questions about toilets there were in the form than formulate a GOOD REASON why the long form Census should have been eliminated in favour of a voluntary survey.

I hang my head in shame

I just had what felt like a great job interview yesterday.

Then I realized that I made two TERRIBLE mistakes on the task assignment they had candidates complete.

All I can say is 'Guh!'

Ow, my burning cat arse...

Pippin managed to insinuate his tail right above a candle. A candle that was making the apartment smell delicious. A candle that was on the computer desk. While I was eating a cheese stick. The cheese made him do it.

I now have an apartment that smells like burnt hair, a wet cat with a pathetically haphazardly trimmed tail, and an astmatic wheeze from the cat bathing. Incidentally, that's the first time I've ever bathed Pippin. And it wasn't so bad.

$3.3 Billion Bailout

We truly live in frightening times. How a government could POSSIBLY rationalize injecting money into supporting dying automakers is completely beyond me.

Honestly, why not just wait for Toyota, Honda, Hyundai and other superior automakers to pick up the slack once the 'Big Three' die? They'll fill the market void once American piece of shit cars are out of the picture. And I'm pretty sure those cars don't make themselves, so surely there will be jobs for auto workers who want them.
