What did you do today?

[deepak]

I eat tea leaves.

I'm fat myself, lol. There's no shame in it.

They sell loose leaf tea

You measure the amount of tea, put t into the filter.

Then you put hot water into the cup, then the filter into the cup with the lid on the filter.

and tea looks like this

*japanese sencha*

Heh, I set myself up for that one. But yea, I use tea leaves like these.

After I drink it, the leaves aren't as bitter and I like to chew on them. =T I got that habit from my uncle. I like the bitter taste.

[manaox2]

I'm so poor I thought that joke might have been about not reusing bags of tea.

I taught Technology at a middle school all day. Correlation? maybe.

I've been building PC's for way too long and never use anything with an Asus label on it. I did own a laptop from them back in 2002 which was ok but that's it. Abit or Gigabyte are the only mobo's I use. Dump the PC and get a 909 or even a 303 and mod the shit out of it.

I hard to look at that three times before I figured out you weren't talking about a 303 or 909. I didn't figure you for the Hardfloor type. Or even the Gus Gus type, really.

People do mod the shit out of their 303s. 909s and 707s as well.

I purge the leaves by running them under some cool water first.

"hot" is according to the instruction based on the tea.

Besides, I never cared for Burgamot.

Even when I do get Darjeelings and Assam teas, I usually brew them lighter than most people would. Though, this is not observed when dealing with the first flush which has a refined oolong taste (technically it is an oolong).

As someone who's earned both degree and title I take particular offense to her claim of being a professional engineer. Not that the title means a great deal, the list of idiot engineers is not short, but to make the claim when it's not true is just .

My point, although you don't seem to recognize my title since I don't take your silly exam

I missed said claim. indeed. I am deeply offended!

Yeah, I'm not sure "silly" is the term I'd use to describe that exam

[JBLoudG20]

It sure is silly to me Nobody in my branch takes it.

Do you guys/gals refer to yourselves as professional engineers, or just software engineers (or other nonsense). To me a PE is a PE, which means you're licensed and registered with the appropriate board. But there are lots of jobs that carry an "engineer" title that operate in a gray area. -=she=- is referring to herself and her friends as professional engineers which take it to another level in my book. In some states unfounded claims like that can land you in a lot of hot water.

'Professional Engineer' means jack shit to EE's/Software E. I'm an embeded engineer by trade, Computer Engineer (and Electrical) by academia, and idiot by general consensus.

[en480c4]

an <snip> idiot by general consensus.

+1 for honesty.

[grawk]

I'm officially a high performance computing engineer by job title, and I'm a college dropout

But that's not the same thing as professional engineer.

That's some knee slappin' goodness.

I'm a Juris Doctor, but I can't even stand to watch ER with all the guts and stuff. And John Stamos' 18 o'clock shadow. Eww.

[Smeggy]

I make shit look pretty now and used to be in the Royal Electrical and Mechanical Engineers Corps. I'm not an engineer either, does that qualify me to make cables too?
