Dear Microsoft
B: Dear Microsoft, An output column that I have chosen to ignore should not trigger a truncation error that makes the whole import fail. Love, Ben
J: Dear Microsoft, A syntax error I already fixed should not continue displaying, requiring me to restart Visual Studio in order to clear it. Love, Jess
B: Both of these should be in the Teaches of Peaches
J: Like sex on the beaches

A splash of Sotomayor love
JUSTICE SOTOMAYOR: Outside of the marriage context, can you think of any other rational basis, reason, for a State using sexual orientation as a factor in denying homosexuals benefits or imposing burdens on them? Is there any other rational decision--making that the Government could make? Denying them a job, not granting them benefits of some sort, any other decision?
MR. COOPER: Your Honor, I cannot. I do not have any -- anything to offer you in that regard. I think marriage is --
JUSTICE SOTOMAYOR: All right. If that --if that is true, then why aren't they a class? If they're a class that makes any other discrimination improper, irrational, then why aren't we treating them as a class for this one thing? Are you saying that the interest of marriage is so much more compelling than any other interest as they could have?
MR. COOPER: No, Your Honor, we certainly are not.

The Nerve Endings Shatter Like Glass
officialiwrotethisforyou:
It doesn’t hurt because if you keep hurting the same part of you again and again and again, the nerve endings all die. And when that happens, that part of you goes numb. That’s why it doesn’t hurt. Don’t be proud of it.
