Whitebread has a fiance

It’s true. I managed to engage on Sunday last. b and I are going to pick up a christmas tree tonight, in an attempt to be as domestic as possible. Also I’ll probably buy another norfolk pine.

In other news, if you find yourself (irrecoverably and accidentally) flying out of the saddle, aim for the pelvis. It’s nice and thick, and heals quickly if you do it right.

Here’s to someone who takes care of me even after I break myself, and don’t appreciate her the way I should, and am generally obnoxious, and self-centered, and…

here’s to the rest of our lives together, Beth.

what to get me for christmas

Something from here.

Mightybike

“Well those are some mighty tires!”
Said the man walking his jack russell around Brownie lake, and the pugs had a new nickname. As I outlined to Pop, all we need for world peace is about 3500 pugsleys, and people to ride them around. Huge smiles from everyone, and a sense that all was right in the world.

I hope you all enjoyed the warm November air, and if you want to hit the trails, let me know.

Dear Imagemagick

First off, that ‘k’ at the end of your name: a. makes me want to wretch and b. isn’t fooling anyone. The only way in which you are magic is that you do completely incomprehensible things. Why the fuck do you add color information to a black and white image by default? Yeah, a lot of zeros is just what I need jackass. Hey, why don’t you take my bilevel 12KB file and pad it with zeros so that it’s 1.1MB? Nice work asshole. When I specify “-monochrome” I’m not fucking kidding, ok? I actually want you to make that bitch monochrome. You know why? Because my god damn input file was monochrome. I know you love colors and all, but lets get something straight, moron. I’m the user and you’re the program so you get to do what I say, not whatever the hell you want.

P.S. your documentation makes me want to invade Iraq.

error: storage class specified for parameter

This error from gcc might mean you have forgotten a semicolon after a function prototype. Check your header files.

GNU_SOURCE

If you’re compiling something and you get this, despite having included sys/types.h

error: expected specifier-qualifier-list before ‘u_int’

You have to pass this to the compiler:
-D_GNU_SOURCE
