Cripes, I'm gone for one day & a whole new thread pops up!

We really do WORK hard at slacking, don't we?

That's an oxymoron if I ever heard one!!!

Slack on everyone.

Creepio, That co-worker was never a true friend. How couls she deny you the truth. She must be an agent of evil. Evil and dark. The council agrees to whatever punishment you can imagine Master Slacker Creepio. Give her all you got!

Before I found this place, I spent my whole workday on AIM looking and hoping I could find a converstaion with another Star Wars Fan. That task was nearly imposible. Those that I did find you could hardly call them fans. Luckily I stumbled into this Forum! And even here finding another AIM user was a hassle. Here is a concentration of full blooded Star Wars lovers. The kind of people I spent a long time looking for.

There is no better place to find another Star Wars Lover. TheForce.net is my place. And what we do here is Slack. We discuss Star Wars Topic, Read other threads regarding Star Wars, comment and just plain have fun. There is no better place for this then here in Misc. And we do this at the risk of losing our jobs. (and they are very nice paying jobs)

Im so glad to have found you guys,and I want to thank you for making me feel so welcomed.. Feel like I belong.

Man I can't wait till 5pm. I need to get out of this freakin' freezing lab!!!

Um, excuse me, I, I'd like to introduce myself. My name is Los Angelean Droid, and I woke up this morning, looked in the mirror and said: "You have no job. You didn't even look for a job this summer. You acted like you were looking for a job. You wake up at 1 pm every day and don't go to sleep until 5 am because of that JC Misc Forum. You're a slacker. Time to face the facts."

Excuse moi, hew?? I'm in a rancorious mood??? If you guys hadn't provoked me, I'd be in a perfectly happy mood. You guys do this on purpose, and then make me look like the bad guy. Leave me ****ing alone for the love of Christ!

Wow, 3 pages already.

Sorry I missed you all today. I was slacking away from the office. I was running erands for the boss and what should have taken 2-3 hours, took all day I even stopped at a friends house for lunch. Slacking without worry, it was wonderful!

C Creepio - Thanks for giving me most enthusiatic for 2 weeks in a row! All I can say is YIPPPPEEE! Oh by the way is there still a corner office left or did I miss out again?

Sandfarmer - What can I say, YOU RULE! Teach them they cannot keep a good slacker down

Jedi Knight TarynS - I agree with your sentiments, except I was never on AIM. Up until I found TF.N I would have to find ways of slacking by myself. Not very exciting let me tell you.
Oh, I am almost at 100 posts my master.

gundark - Congradulations on 1000! Be careful I hear there's a case of mono going around the forums

hew - Your boss can feel how powerful the slack is with you. He wouldn't dare give you a bad review for fear of angering you.

tabhwd - Welcome to the slack! Watch out where you ash though, the maid has the weekend off

Los Angelean Droid - Welcome. I guess it was time to come out of the closet and admit what you really are Enjoy the stay!

I feel like singing!

*RedHot5 starts singing*

Making your way in the world today takes everything you've got,
Taking a break from all your worries sure would help a lot.
Wouldn't you like to get away?
(piano tinkle)

Sometimes you want to go
Where everybody knows your name,
And they're always glad you came,
You want to be where you can see,
Our troubles are all the same,
You want to be where everybody knows your name.

All those night when you've got no lights the check is in the mail,
And your little angel hung the cat up by it's tail,
And your third fiance didn't show;
(piano tinkle)

Sometimes you want to go
Where everybody knows your name,
And they're always glad you came,
You want to be where you can see,
Our troubles are all the same,
You want to be where everybody knows your name.

Roll out of bed, Mr. Coffee's dead the morning's looking bright,
And your shrink ran off to Europe and didn't even write,
And your husband wants to be a girl.
(piano tinkle)

Be glad there's one place in the world
Where everybody knows your name,
And they're always glad you came,
You want to go where people know,
People are all the same,
You want to go where everybody knows your name.

(ALL together Now)

Where everybody knows your name,
And they're always glad you came,
Where everybody knows your name,
And they're always glad you came,
(fade out)

That's it for now. See what happens when I miss a whole day? RedHot5 signing off, shazbot!

Hi everybody !
Just passing by again...

Hacienda 51, your french is great !

Everybody else : I'm not here often enough, I need updates.

- Why is Son Of The Sun upset THIS time ?

- What has Sand Farmer done to be banned again ?
(Or is "supposed to have done"...)
I'm fighting against all odds on the "Why did Sand Farmer get banned" thread, I need help !


- And yes, the end of the Bashers thread is hilarious.
What do you say we bring them furniture for their new home, a good neighbourghly act?

Bonsoir Sabé, comment-allez vous?

It's been awhile, eh? It's nice to see you back.

I can't answer too many of your questions because I've been too busy slacking, but I can tell you it's been rather "interesting" here the last few days.

À bientôt mon amie.

Bonjour Rookie ! ça boume, mon vieux ?

Well, I was not absent long... In fact, I was not absent at all ( I came and check twice a day ) but this thread is growing so fast, and - more important - things are happening so fast in this neighbourhood that I think I'm missing plenty of stuff...
This is frustrating...

Maybe someone could e-mail me a sum-up of the last news....

So be prepared ! Here comes Darth Sabé ! I'm going to be mean and, huh, well, MEAN to everyone !

And to start the day :

Cut the frigging chat threads already !
Go to work !
Be nice to Son of The Suns !

Bonjour, guten Tag, buenos dias, hello everybody. Happy Friday, the weekly official slacker's holiday.

Welcome LA Droid...you might be interested to know that my law school professor was talking about the stock market last night, and he brought up the movie Pi...I was the only one in the class of 200 people who had seen it... I know you're a fan so I thought you'd appreciate that.

rookie, redhot...I'm sorry I omitted you from the "shouts" list.

See you guys in the chat! MTSBWY!

"Work.... here???"

Cheer up, LA Droid. The summer job market is a savage wasteland. I know quite a few good students who ended up doing next to nothing, or accepting ridiculously low-paying jobs, simply because there's very little out there that doesn't involve telemarketing, waiting on kids, or pushing ice cream trucks.

LA Droid's post also raises an interesting question. Next week is going to be my last week here. I'm going back to university this fall and will lose this T1 connection to the Internet. [quiet sobs]

I'll be checking on from library computers, to be sure. But we should have an official line of this. Is SWMCMMJ still "the right place" to be? Technically, after all, I won't be employed anymore.

SOTS, I apologize you aren't nearly the ******* that PB and Lord Chewy are. They really need to stop sucking each others dicks long enough to get some air.
