As bummers go, 30 is so overhyped.

Good God, you'd be red raw after 30!

That expression has puzzled me quite some years indeed, but I've accepted it that some expressions just do not make sense :lol:
rock 2 |rɑk| |rɒk|
verb
2 [ intrans. ] informal dance to or play rock music.

:afro:

Eh, no, that's another. There I couldn't find any vacancies. And the company where I finished my graduation project, had to lay off people because of the recession, so they were not legally entitled to hire me.
Ahh well, as long as you're happy where you are :)

Yes, but the thing that puzzled me is why to name a dance to the most inanimate kind of object in existance.

Oh I see. Well it's probably a contraction of "rock and roll", which may be considered "hard" or "heavy" music, making it kind of analogous to a rock.

Yes, very nice colleagues, 25 minutes cycling from home, and much programming to do. I certainly do not have much to complain. :)

Excellent :D :D :D :D :D

Oh, and also "rock" as a verb has another meaning, namely a way of moving. So that might be something to do with it.

Anyway it's the same thing with names. Why can people have the same name? If it was up to me it'd be custom to give a person a unique ID as name (well, together with a unique family ID).
It's just that people don't want to live and think pure ;)


If only the world were an SQL database :D

I tend to lose things quite often, and when I do, I often think to myself that if the world were an SQL database, I could just do "SELECT location FROM world WHERE object = 'mykeys'".

I can't possibly be expected to be that organised. At the moment I'm too distracted by working out whether objects in my house are symmetrical enough :nervous:
