omg hi

[x_dj]

I have a blog for work? Coolest job ever. I should customize it so it's all pink and shiny impossible to read like MySpace. That'll get me a promotion, right? Sweet.

So the PTB told me that I should say hi now so nobody goes all wtf later when they see some strange person post. I'm Mark Sheppard, and I'm Snow Valley's pretty face at the front door receptionist/office bitch. That'd be my charmingly sexy voice you hear when you call our main number. So hello, all. Pleased to meet you.

I would also like to take this opportunity to pimp my one true everlasting love forever and ever amen, Silver. The only nightclub in the state of New York that caters especially to mutants. (At least, I think it's the only one. If it's not, then it's definitely the best.) I'm there just about every night, being the music man and all. Everyone who says hi here gets a free drink. But only if you're over 21. If you're not, then only if you smile sorry, no can do. We love our liquor license very much and couldn't stand to see her leave. It'd leave me heartbroken and then I wouldn't be able to do my job here and then I'd end up begging for boxed wine on the streets, and no one should ever have to drink boxed wine.

I wrote myself a little Post It and hung it up on my monitor to remind me so I don't speak too filthily. I'm not sure how well I did. It's been so long since I was a teenager.

Lots of our teenagers swear like troopers. Although you'd be liable to shock the ones that don't, so maybe the post-it isn't such a bad idea.

Do we still have that language filtering system?

[xp_daytripper]

*nods* For the little ones, you mean? Yeah, I think that's still in force - Doug writes good code. ;)

I thought Dr. McCoy wrote that software?

[xp_daytripper]

If McCoy wrote it, kudos to him instead. I'm pretty sure Doug and Kitty maintained it, though, considering McCoy wasn't exactly around for much of the last three years and had a lot of other stuff going on when he was.

[x-siryn.livejournal.com]

I'm quite sure he did. Doug wasn't here when the system went up as I recall. Kit was but I don't think she was quite up to programming it then.

The journals went up back in 2003, yeah, but I thought the filter was brought in later? I seem to remember backreading to some fuss about John swearing in his journal and the little kids reading it.

*shrugs* Whatever. It's not really important, and if I'm wrong, I'm wrong. I certainly have better things to do than to argue it, and I'm sure you do too.

Upshot is, there's a filter program for naughty words so us rough types don't traumatise the littlies.

Not really. Just homework that I'm avoiding. What kind of professor gives homework on the first day of class? My social justice professor, that's who.

It was brought in later. But I'm pretty sure it was Dr. McCoy who wrote it.

Could be wrong of course. I've been here too long.

*snorts* You're two years older than me. Positively ancient, that is...

[x-pressive.livejournal.com]

It was a long time ago :P It's been more than three years since high school, and that's 14% of my life.

[xp_daytripper]

Only one year for me. Yeah, late bloomer and all that. *grins* Worth the wait, though, don't you think?
