The Internet entertainment division is apparently on strike.

It is currently very boring. I mean, seriously. OJ?! That is SO ten years ago.

If things don't pick up, I'll have to go do actual work, which is teh suck.

Also teh suck are Graduate "group projects", in which I always get screwed. Seriously, could I get just one sane group? Instead it's:

"Ohh, my part is too huge and complicated despite it's being what I wanted to do. You do this bit of it, despite the fact that you doing it makes NO FUCKING SENSE in relation to the rest of your part. Plus, we'll contact you THE DAY BEFORE THE FIRST PART IS DUE to start working out what we're going to do. In front of the entire class. Because we have jobs and don't give a shit that your ENTIRE life is focused on school and getting a decent job afterwards.

And by the way, our bit so far reads like a treatise on management. What's up with you explaining how the assigned topic is usually approached, and how it's affected by the specific type of organization we're working on?"

I have made my sibling promise to incapacitate me if he ever finds out I'm teaching a Grad course and assigning group projects. Last year, I had a course where we did not turn in a single individual paper. Several people got royally screwed.
