TET: Snail Riders, Charge!

[Infected Mushroom]

Unless, like me, you're not proficient in Excel.

I don't recall saying you had to actually be proficient.

My standard for “proficiency” in Excel:

1. You can find and open Excel
2. Can type some things into the squares
3. You know how to Save

How to format? How to calculate? Well...

I know very little about it.
I get irritated by the auto-complete and wish I could turn it off.

God, La Croix tastes like absolute shit, is all sparkling water this bad? I'm just trying to cut overwhelmingly sugary drinks out of my diet but still want something with flavor.

Been soda-free* for 8 months and now I'm trying to kick sweet tea - which I've been drinking like its water.

*I've had three 20-ounce bottles of soda in the last eight months.

I’m familiar with Perrier. I would say it tastes like sour soda with zero sweetness.

Is that what La Croix tastes like?

La Croix tastes like carbonation and no flavor, unless carbonated is a flavor?

Always remember to put Proficient in Excel in a Resume.

In high school I took classes for the whole Microsoft office suite and got certified in Microsoft 2010 programs - Office, PowerPoint, Access, Excel, the works.

Should I put "certified in Excel 2010" on my resume?

'I was once competent on Excel and had that on my CV.

Then -- a good number of years ago -- I got to an interview where there was a surprise aptitude test in my "highly competent" computer skills. Aced the rest, but hadn't touched Excel since uni... Mind. Blank.

Protip: Keep up those Excel skills or your resume may bite you on the behind one day.

I think it actually is. Carbon dioxide in water, is a weak acid: carbonic acid.

I added seltzer to the drink mix, better than soda for you

I've kicked soda. I mean, like I said I've had a few bottles over the last eight months and I'm fine with having one every once in a while like that. Just glad I kicked the habit of drinking it like water. It's been a good eight months.

Though recently I've been thinking, "Why did I drop soda?" and my answer is because its loaded as fuck with sugar. With that in mind, I want to drop sweet tea - which I drink like water - and relegate it to "every once in a while" status as well. So I'm just trying to find sugar-free or even low sugar drinks to make my regular drinks.

Could try sugarless/low sugar bottled ice green tea drinks

Don’t like?

I know. But if there's nothing more you want to type (say you type "cat" and it completes to "catalogue") you can't just hit return to move to the next box. This is particularly annoying if you're entering data from paper or from another screen.

I just want to turn the bastard off.

When you drink a soda, sometimes the carbon dioxide escapes with a burp.
But sometimes it doesn't. I have to assume CO₂ escapes your gut through your bloodstream, and is exhaled.

Maybe burping is a sufficient safety valve to save you from CO₂ poisoning ...

But what about the carbon monoxide?

Ah, that's a shame. I had to unplug the detector because it kept screaming at me

You have a toxic gas detector? I nearly bought one of those.

Right. I shouldn't have assumed.

Are you okay?

I'll survive I stung a little for a while, but i'm actually more upset about the chair. I've had that thing for like 2 years now, and it's survived me getting overexcited at video games for that long, but alas it is no more.

My first instinct was to say that I'll keep your chair in my prayers.

I'm sorry about your chair, though, and hopefully you can replace it.

It is indeed a hassle.

My one atheist friend apparently only likes me because I'm "brainwashed" and she thinks it's "cute."

I'm a little offended by that.

I once thought that Google Sheets was better.

I can understand why you're offended.

Hell, the "it's cute" would have offended me at 16. There again, when I was 16, one of my friends told me she liked me because I reminded her of her mother -- when I was less-than-pleased she hastily added "in a good way".

If your atheist friend is usually nice, maybe tell her -- in as level-headed a way as possible -- that you were offended. You never know, it might provide the opportunity for some good discussions. When I was 16/17, I remember some very lively theological debates with my high-school friends (lots of different beliefs; plenty of debate)

Her mother? That's an interesting thing to say. I've never heard of that before, and it does seem a bit strange.

I've had some interesting debates with her in the past. This will probably end as another one of the fun ones, because I definitely enjoy defending my sanity to people. She's usually friendly enough, though, which is good.

If she's usually friendly then, hopefully you'll be able to move past the comments.

And as for the "mother" thing -- it was strange. Some people seem to take longer than others to master the fine art of compliments.

I'll just see if she has some sort of explanation, maybe.

How does someone even think of that sort of statement? It's very strange. It's not a real compliment at all.

I have absolutely no idea.

Even though you have to pay through the nose for it, Microsoft > Google in this regard.

I haven't used Excel in so long I can't say if Libre Office is the same, or as good. It's good enough for me and is free.
