You can buy the dog all sorts of expensive toys to keep him entertained…but the only toy he really needs is free and came with him.

Evan has Awesome Customer Support

Ian Grist — Wed, 07 Sep 2011 18:33:18 +0000

Evan’s has set up his own online store where he is selling motorcycle parts through his new company. IN the name of excellent customer service, he has also set up an online chat form where customers can contact him for support via IM. As you can imagine, once we discovered this functionality, it has been non-stop fucking with him to see who can have the funniest conversation with him whilst he thinks its an actual customer. I had a pretty good one yesterday that I am very proud of:

Ultimo Att(h)acks!

Ian Grist — Wed, 22 Jun 2011 19:09:30 +0000

I was chatting with Jess on Google Chat today, and some weird messages started showing up. I was pretty confused at first, because Jess was typing and then someone else was sending messages from her account at the same time. At first I got kind of scared, because about a year ago, my gmail account got hacked and someone started sending messages to her from it. You can see in gmail where your account is logged in from, and there was a login listed from India. Make sure you keep an eye on that account activity link in gmail! Anyway….the following conversation was had, and I didn’t figure out what was going on until about halfway through…

It hilariously turned out that Evan went home for lunch and happened to see that her iMac was still turned on and he could see all of our IM’s. He jumped on the computer and started sending messages as Ultimo. I called him halfway through when I realized Ultimo was similar to AWESOME-O, the name of Cartman’s robot in the awesome southpark episode where he pretends to be Butter’s friend to get back the video of him dancing to britney spears. I figured that evan is one of the only people who would find this hilarious. But at this point, Jess was already freaking out and I was laughing so hard we kept at it for a while longer.

Sorry babe!

From the Kaner Conversation Files…

From deep within the archives we find this gem of a conversation. It was the product of an awesome conversation concerning Evan’s attempt to organize a cross-country motorcycle trip with a gang consisting of Kaner the Soulless Ginger, and myself. However, Evan doesn’t even own a motorcycle, a fact which we brutally exploited, and hilarity ensued. Enjoy!

My Dad vs Clairemont

Ian Grist — Sat, 28 May 2011 20:21:58 +0000

My dad was ranting this morning about the biodegradeable spoons at the yogurt shop in Clairemont. Apparently they give you biodegradeable spoons made out of corn starch with your yogurt. According to my dad, they have these stupid spoons in the yogurt shops “to pacify the liberal idiots in clairemont”. My dad, being the awesome patriot and crusader of freedom that he is, took a couple of these spoons a few years ago, and buried them in the backyard. He digs them up from time to time to check just how much they had biodegraded. Apparently, in the few years he has had them buried, they have not changed one bit. He says once they biodegrade at all, he’s going to take them back to that stupid yogurt shop and tell them that they aren’t helping the environment, and this type of stuff only works on the hippies in clairemont.

I love my dad!
