Male Barista: Do you have your Borders Rewards card?

Old Man Customer: Yup *hands him card*

Barista: This is your Safeway card.

Customer: Oh, this one? *holds up card*

Barista: No, that’s still your Safeway card.

Customer: *fumbles through wallet, pulls out card* Here it is.

Barista: Sir, that is still your Safeway card.

Customer: Really? *looks at card*

Barista: Yeah, *takes card* I’m just gonna scan it so we can move on…

You can’t put pillow cases on the wrong pillows. A pillow case has to match it’s pillow, otherwise it’s like it’s an entirely different pillow.

Love,
The part of you trying to get a good night’s sleep.

This site will be rebuilt from the ground up.
It will probably not include the “cool” duelling columns thing anymore.
It will still include Tony and I.
I’ll be writing a LOT more.
I’ll be integrating content/mashing up stuff with my various content-everywhere sites. And then building something amazing off of the concept.
I will learn how to leverage and develop brand equity.
I will sadly not exceed 100 viewers a day, and I will take it personally.
Et cetera.

Starting up:
OMGFood.com
Because I like to talk about food a lot.

Guy with longboard: Dude your bag is open. Holy shit what’s in here?

Guy with backpack: Oh I didn’t want to leave it in my car.

Longboard: Dude it’s a big bag of weed!

Backpack: Yeah, I didn’t want to leave it in my car.

Longboard: Oh-ho, what if you did, and when you went back out it was like, all clam-baked and shit?

Backpack: … Fuck dude, that is so awesome.

Woman: *to other woman* It’s only 99 cents, get me one.

Man: It’s a dollar.

Woman: No, it’s 99 cents.

Man: A dollar. They’re the same thing.

Woman: Why do you always have to pull this shit out of my ass? One of these days I’m going to explode and then what? You’re going to have my shit all over your face and who’s going to like you then, huh?

Man: *to woman* I want one too.

ClearType, which I understand is locked as a feature in 2007, is appearing to be completely deactivated, or otherwise rendering incorrectly when using Remote Desktop Connection at the “Full” experience.

The problem is most prevalent on unread, and thus bolded messages, and is just a bit of a quirk that should probably be dealt with. In my humble opinion.

Edit: Other Microsoft dev whose name eludes me pointed out that ClearType doesn’t render on Windows at all through RemDesk, or that it wasn’t supposed to, or *some*thing like that. While I admit that it’s somewhat obvious, I think it might have to do with Office using Calibri or the other ClearType fonts, and said fonts not scaling down properly, which makes it look so much worse than the standard XP interface downscale.

Further update: Robert Scoble was kind enough to point me to the ClearType group leader, who pointed me to the Terminal Services guy who mentioned that he’s actually working on it AT THIS VERY INSTANT. Nice to see the system works.
