07:42 <@Dolemite> mr0ning, be0tches and h0ez!
07:42 < Evilpig> no
07:42 < Evilpig> just no
07:42 <@Dolemite> too late
07:42 < Evilpig> dealing with tier 1 tech support this morning has me annoyed
07:44 <@Dolemite> Ah, welcome to ORNL!
07:46 < Evilpig> not our tier 1 folks.  the ones at palo alto
07:46 <@Dolemite> Gotcha.   I figured you had another like I got yesterday - instead of just answering the question with the answer we've told them to give, they sent a ticket to me.
07:47 <@Dolemite> I mean, seriously.  "How do I purchase a web server certificate?" shouldn't be sent as an incident to a senior tech.   And let me tell ya, I'm getting more and more senior by the day.   I have to grey hairs to prove it.
08:10 <@Dolemite> yay, laptop just blue screened in the middle of my team meeting
08:13 < Evilpig> surrrrrrrrre it did.  I like that excuse though, how often can you use that to get out of meetings and it still be valid?
08:19 <@Dolemite> depends on whether or not your group is responsible for patching laptops and desktops ;)

09:38 <@Dolemite> noice
09:39 < Evilpig> I have enjoyed that one
09:40 <@Dolemite> yep, it was pretty slick
09:40 <@Dolemite> I am REALLY enjoying Poker Face
09:41 <@Dolemite> I like Rian Johnson's style of storytelling
09:42 < Evilpig> I still haven't checked that out
09:43 <@Dolemite> This article sounds like NotLarry wrote it.  https://gizmodo.com/how-giraffes-flirt-mating-habits-urine-1850090535
09:43 < Evilpig> will probably do that here soon though, just finished with brisco county jr this morning

10:09 < Evilpig> good lord tara reid looks like a skeleton now
11:43 <@Mirage> yeah
12:39 < Evilpig> just finished filing ash's taxes and they got rejected because someone filed with liam's ssn as a dependant
12:44 < Evilpig> so now i'm sitting on hold with the IRS waiting for their legal folks to explain what we have to do to fix this.  we already have to file her taxes by paper return, which will then trigger a notice to file an amended return
12:59 < dasunt> Evilpig: The solution used to be to file them by hand (paper copies, not electronic), then the IRS will flag it.  Not sure if that's still true.
13:02 < dasunt> I only know this because one of the forums I was on used to have this as a not-too-infrequent question because one divorced parent would try to claim a child they couldn't and file first.
13:05 < dasunt> Here, this is the IRS website's take:  https://www.irs.gov/identity-theft-fraud-scams/identity-theft-dependents#:~:text=Answer%20when%20the%20IRS%20contacts%20you&text=You%20may%20receive%20a%20letter,will%20get%20the%20same%20letter.

13:09 < Evilpig> dasunt: it is
13:10 < Evilpig> we're filing paper on her this year which will trigger the CP87A for the second year in a row which should start an audit on both of them
13:10 < Evilpig> we definitely didn't file the amended return last year after getting the notice because she was the rightful claimer
13:11 < Evilpig> we have all the documents for 886-H-DEP so what will end up happening is he'll get penalized and have to pay back the wrongful gains.  I'd bet that if he gets audited more fraud will turn up

18:41 <@Dagmar> Looks like gaming companies finally realized not everyone wants hteir keyboard to sound like a fucking AK-47
18:41 <@Dagmar> The keycaps on this are starting to wear through, so I may just be buying a new keyboard this weekend (for like half what I paid for bullshit "silent" Cherry MX keys)
