Man, it has been quite some time since I posted on Enemesis. I figured it was a good time to post when I found something that is trully ironic. And since we like to trash talk a lot of things here, read on for your entertainment.

Just for shits and giggles, I went to Live.com and typed "search".

You'd think that Microsoft would be smart enough to make their own search engine be the first result that came up.

Nope. Google is the 3rd on the list. Yahoo is 4th. AOL is 8th.

Live Search is 66th. MSN Search NEVER comes up (I looked through 10 pages of results before getting bored.

However, if you go to Google and type "search", Live.com is the first result.

Just goes to show that these companies, in their ultimate wisdom, are pure turd-burglers.

I thought the linked story was interesting, mainly because it doesn't seem that very many people acknowledge the possibility that someone could have possibly "provoked" Hitler to do what he did with the Nazi war machine.

If you check the article linked via the "source" link at the bottom of this post, you will see a fairly old news article which talks about "The Jewish Declaration of War on Nazi Germany - The Economic Boycott of 1933."

World War II started as two separate conflicts, the first being in Asia in 1937, the second being in Europe around 1939.

In or around 1933 however, the general sentiment in the air was to give Hitler his space and to also play nice with him (mainly because nobody really knew what he was going to do next, or when he was going to stop trying to take over Europe).

Wouldn't it be a sad irony if in fact one group of Jewish people caused another group of Jewish people to have to go through one of the most, if not the most tragic episode of ethnic cleansing this world has ever known? I guess this just goes to show that it really is a very small world after all.

...is my witty posts on this website, and I bet you do too!

So, this week was super killer busy. I was working 10+ hour days every day but Thursday, which is just as good because I had to go to class and then I got to hang out with some good friends for dinner.

A busy day no matter which way you slice it.

I guess what really seems to throw a wrench in my whole crazy work schedule is the fact that my commute takes me down into Redmond from Everett where I currently live. Now I do have to say that I live in south Everett, like just north of Silver Lake... so it's not as though I have to commute from north Everett or worse.

I do have to commute during the heaviest traffic times of the day. I will more than likely end up staying late even when we aren't busy (if that ever happens) until at least 7 or 7:30pm just to avoid the heavy onslaught of traffic and also to have the ability to use the carpool lane after 7 (yes, we actually open our HOV lanes on some of our highways to help with traffic congestion. They don't do it during the traffic shittiness... but they do use it at the end of rush hour, and it helps clear out the last bit of remaining shit tube clog... yes I just coined a new phrase for traffic... I agree, it isn't very creative is it?) and for all of you fuck-tards that honk at me, flash your brights, flip me off, write down my plate, call me into that '1800-I'mabusterandhavenofriends' number... next time look at the little tiny sign they have attached to the HOV lane restriction signs. You might notice that it says 5am-7pm. What this means is that when we are outside of these times, the carpool lane is just like any other lane. Now get it straight you losers, or I might just punch you in the neck.

Anyhow, I am working on a plan to help my commute. It might end up being the bus, or maybe a carpool, but it's going to be something dammit, I can't handle this shit.

Also, I found out that taking the bus from Snohomish County into King County can actually cost more than it's worth.... I mean if I'm going to be stranded at work all day until I take the bus back home, I want it to be more than reasonably priced.

Well, that's what's going on right now... or what I'm thinking about at least... enjoy...

One of the definitions of irony is: refers to the use of words to convey the opposite of their literal meaning. The three kinds of irony used most often in these standards are situational, dramatic, and verbal.

Today's example of irony is situational.

I am in a marketing department at my work. We launched a new tool which is supposed to post advertisements to the web. As such, we decided to do a little quality assurance and test out a random order number.

We searched the order number and found the advertisement didn't come up. It couldn't get up.

The advertisement was for Viagra.
