I just had to sit through a business meeting with other partner companies, and I heard stuff like:
• "monotonectally reinvent emerging methodologies"
• "collaboratively synthesize extensible innovation"
• "holisticly provide access to sticky e-markets"
• "distinctively expedite clicks-and-mortar applications"
• "fungibly transform multimedia based manufactured products"
• "seamlessly foster functionalized web services"
• "distinctively orchestrate next-generation web services"
• "authoritatively cloudify on-demand markets"
• "synergistically disseminate holistic benefits"
• "completely initiate scalable core competencies"
Does anyone know what any of this means. Like anyone. Or are these people making up shit to get paid. Why am I paying people to make shit up.

So, apparently, I count as an honorary Machine for having gotten Super Dora with Van Der Aart's help a few years ago.

::So, Shian, you've tried to get into contact with Noriko, and presumably since she's being Noriko and thus impossible to get a hold of her when you need her, you try to get to her office.
Where you find what feels like Noriko but evil ordering the papers on Noriko's desk. How do you engage?::

I was gonna make some quippy post about how the news got my picture from a bad angle.
But then I had a zen realization it didn't matter.
I've just gotten everything I've ever wanted in life, and I wasn't even trying.
I feel cheated and yet happy and yet completely hollow.
And all that comes to mind is the adage about the butterfly:
“Once upon a time, I dreamt I was a butterfly, fluttering hither and thither, to all intents and purposes a butterfly. I was conscious only of my happiness as a butterfly, unaware that I was myself. Soon I awaked, and there I was, veritably myself again. Now I do not know whether I was then a man dreaming I was a butterfly, or whether I am now a butterfly, dreaming I am a man.”

So. What do you do when you want to talk to a shrink. But the one best likely to deal with you is you. And the attitude of any others makes you want to make the shrink quit their job and vanish and show up three towns away.

Hi hi, I'm back or whatever.
Start throwing the fucking tomatoes and calling me a worthless piece of hypocritical trash or whatever.
Adam, can I have my job back?

I think I have an existential crisis.
I'm inherently greedy and I love money.
I have access to infinity money.
MY LIFE HAS NO MEANING.

Yo, Sadame or whatever your name is, I need you to do something for me.
It's sort of an order from Noriko, half me being selfish.

::Meanwhile, during something completely different, you can find Moeko trawling around the Wakahisa residence or Carden of Eden, in grey sweats, doing what appears to be repeated drawing from a Duel Disk. As if it were excercise.::

Gah. I'm stuck with Santa duty.
Stupid Noriko and wanting to spend time with her friends and family.
And where did she find these Phantom Beast Wild-Horns!?

Ugh, how can people in card shops deal with register jobs when so many of the customers smell like they saw a shower one day and decided to never touch it again.

Just as an FYI, I'm going to be leaving Japan soon, for business trip related reasons. I'll be back as soon as possible.

You know what annoys me?
When people who owe me money think they can change their appearance or gender to squirm out of paying me back.
Oh well, I guess Momma's got her own personal gym, then?

::So guys, there's this Gym with a sign reading 完全なボディイメージチェンジ阿修羅アスレチッククラブ (The Complete Body Image Change Ashura Fitness Club).

::So you're walking around town, that's nice, right?
Well you come across a fancy building labelled "Jupiter Loans Co. Ltd.". Inside you'll find a woman in a pantsuit who looks like Noriko, if she wore her hair up in pigtails. She's sitting a desk, which has brochures, a laptop and fancy pens, and a stack of black plastic business cards with an emblem of a stylized Jupiter on it.
Oh yeah, and a stuffed kitty.::

::So a slightly older, non-Jailbait Noriko is standing on a sidewalk, handing out fliers, while wearing something that's platform shoes, a mini-skirt and a halter. Why is she handing out fliers.::

::So there's this pretty red-head/brunette diva moving into Tops. She looks pretty nice. And those of you who know Noriko can confuse her for the Lovely Squid Goddess. Those of you who alternatively know her can recognize Moeko pretty easily.
Anyways, she has a moving truck in front of the building and is yelling at people to move stuff in.::
