Day on a farm:
She looks very happy!
Have you ever driven a tractor? It's pretty damn awesome.
My wife works at a company that auctions off machinery of all types. The week before an auction, they let anyone who registered come into their lot and try out the equipment. You're not allowed to move it much, but you can try out basically any other function.
I've operated all kinds of machinery I had no right to even try. Stuff that dwarfs me and/or could kill me at a moment's notice. I didn't usually try the bigger scarier stuff, but even machines like excavators, tractors, party busses, and super cars were enough to thrill me.
My wife's work wallpaper is of me in the driver's seat of a firetruck. I feel bad about that one - I accidentally triggered the siren and couldn't figure out how to turn it off. By the time I was ready to ask for help the yard crew had left. I really tried to figure it out or recruit help, but I ended up just leaving with it still on.
Some say you still hear that siren if you listen closely
Well, that just makes me feel sorry for whomever ended up buying it.
I was told there be goths in IT. Just fat nerds, mostly me.
You should have watched the promotional material more closely.
Pale, weird, hidden in the server room, and occasionally some Cradel of Filth, that's just my office...
Be the goth you wish to see in the world
