Moments of monumental absurdity January 15, 2007

Posted by Aaron in : Work , trackback

I have a career of monumental absurdity. Think about it, I sit around telling a little box to do things, and having it mock me in a simple way for instructing it poorly, or not anticipating that another little box may have a slightly different world view, and so may need to be instructed in a slightly different fashion. That is my job. One of the many questions I’ve always had though isn’t about my career, its about others. Do you other people outside of the IT industry also find your day to day life beset by monumental absurdity as well, of either tool, coworker or another source?

While I’ve wondered this for quite a while, Dan provided the inspiration to turn it into a post….

Dan: last night, I dreamed that I made the coolest JS thing ever
AC: lol, were you in a scripting contest with the devil?
AC: and today did you set out to make a tribute to the best JS thing ever?
Dan: no, sadly
Dan: to make it nerdier… I think it had to do with data abstraction

Its not mockery… its iMockery, and it comes in 6 delicious flavors (all involving chocolate as the next post will suggest)
