That comes with being God I guess

Names are just symbols. If I were to call myself Stan or Satan I might get odd looks but... It gets like that when your psych says you live with severe dissociation.

I think it's cleaning and then nap time.

I can't seem to qual for pinterest no matter what I do.

I don't think they have a qual? Just a disqual. They are hard to catch, though.

We just watched this episode of Psych this morning and then saw the title of this thread.

 

[tricker]

anyone remember EyeApps? and that time they posted on MTF saying that we should feel lucky to get paid crap to do their image HIT's... lmao

This reminded me of those hits that were pics of eyeballs and you had to mark the ones where they were blinking or almost blinking or closed.

My eyes are watering now just remembering them.

 

[GTR]

Yeah exactly. Y'all should try meeting him in real life

and the fact that you survived is a miracle in itself

Where is all the work today?

Part of what causes racism is those who research the concept of 'race'. Half the time the requesters for some odd reason perpetuate stereotypes in an attempt to get some unknown result.

I've been dealing with the issue of "race" since the early 1960s and I think you might be "projecting" your experience as a Turker to the wider population of Americans. Throughout my life I've known scads of people who were or are "racist" without ever having taken a survey or poll on the subject. (Well, maybe one or two, but that isn't enough to perpetuate "racism.")

More often than not, there are a LOT of issues involved in why a person is racist or not (some "open." some hidden). For instance, the simple concept of "other." So far as I can see, there is no rational reason for being racist (although those who *are* racist believe what they believe is based on "rational" argument).

My apologies for such an "involved" couple of paragraphs.

Where is all the work today?

So slow I'm working on str while re-evaluating life decisions that led me to this point.

 

[marshmallows]

I'm working ... while re-evaluating life decisions that led me to this point.

Do you not do that every day?

I'm in Florida, I need to go outside and tell it to go home.

Where is all the work today?

I decided I was going to watch that fan edit of the Hobbit movies that cuts out all the extraneous, tone-demolishing nonsense and makes a reasonable 4 hour movie out of a bloated mess. So I asked all Mturk requesters to hold off work for the day since I won't be available.

EDIT: Would still like to live in the alternate universe where Guillermo del Toro made a Hobbit movie without five different studios sticking their fingers init.
