Playstation Hackable

PSP! Portable nut!
Yup. It’s one of the original PSP’s that were hack-able. I think I have custom firmware on there so I could play backup iso images of games. It was easier for me to rip a couple games I had to files on a memory card, instead of shlepping around a bunch of UMD’s that were prone to breaking in travel.
But I don’t use it anymore. So, time to go.

Get to work, Sally Shortbread! The roads are clear!
I am working. From home. Where it’s warm, and I have coffee, and the lack of need to put on big-boy clothing.
I’m glad the roads are clear. It’ll be nice when I go out to get lunch.

At least the TSA are in tuxedos, so you know you’re in good hands, right?
Right up until the cavity search.

Jesus Christ. Sounds like you’re off to a rocking start. I hope it only gets better from here!

This while extended is really off to a stellar beginning.

Ugh…hope it all goes well, man.
Thank you, sir. I’m doing all I can to make it so, whether this trip wants to cooperate willingly or not.

You all are awesome.
True Dedication

You grew a beard just for a knot? Dedication.
I’m nothing if not intensely dedicated to odd and unnecessary things. I started growing this beard 10 years ago for this very moment. The more bushy goatee is a more recent addition, though.

This is what I tie all the time. I can’t really stand the half-windsor look—it feels like there are missing parts to it. :)
On STFU…
bakewithavengeance replied to your post: STFU, please…
YEEEEAAHHHHHH!!!! Kick some ass!
Can I say how hard it was not to just scream into the phone “HOLY FUCKING FUCK SHUT THE FUCK UP! YOU ARE A WASTE OF THINGS, AND I DON’T LIKE IT!”
It was difficult, sir. Difficult
sounds like every single miserable day of the two years i worked at mtv.
M’kay, the difference here is that you were working at MTV. On paper, that sounds awesome. Well, maybe not now. Remember when they played music? Anyone?
I like the way you think. Well played, my friend.

It’s Halloween! And I’m at work, of course. I was tempted to dress up, so I kicked around a few ideas.
Here’s a list of my rejected Halloween Costumes:
- Dr. Cranquis (Hell, I could be him, since no one knows what he looks like)
- Rick from Walking Dead (I’m not bad ass enough)
- Joey Fatone (For reasons. Rejected because fuck N*Sync
I see you, and raise.
I think it’s every chubby, bearded guy’s destiny to be Silent Bob at some point. Coincidentally, the gentleman to my left, Noodles (who is Shaun, the titular hero from Shaun of the Dead) went as Finn from Adventure Time this year, with his fiancee as Jake.
Well done, sir. I applaud the costume, and tip my backwards baseball cap to you.
When I was in college, I had long hair, down past my shoulders. And a trench coat. And black denim shorts. ”Silent Bob” happened sometimes just through wardrobe rotation.
Also, your friend wins for pulling Shaun off, and for not only doing Finn, but having his fiancee roll with it and be Jake.

DUDE! What the heck?! Also, call the hotel, tell them they shocked the crap outta you and get upgrades, comp food and ALL OF THE FREE THINGS.
Yeah, I had that thought, too. But honestly, I just want to leave. I’ll make mention of it when I check out later, maybe get a free upgrade for another trip. But really, it’s just more reason why I want to go home.
THIS IS HOW YOU DIE!
I forgot that room service delivery guys were electricians. Yay for efficiency! Maybe that’s why it broke in the first place.The Room Service Delivery job industry is very cut throat. You need to be incredibly versatile. Lifting and setting food down, banter, reaching out expectantly for a tip, electrical, song and dance, and being willing to help out with a small discrete wager.
Boosh!
Breaking News…
bakewithavengeance replied to your post: Monday
Are you in the DC area? I thought you were West Coast! ALL MY ILLUSIONS HAVE BEEN SHATTERED!
Sorry about the illusion shattering. I work for a company based on the West Coast, so I travel out there a fair bit. And most of my project team and coworkers are out west. And since I grouse about them a lot, that’s probably what caused confusion (that or my vague vagueness). But I am a born-and-raised East Coaster.
