I rediscovered this poem yesterday. I absolutely love it.


An Expostulation by C.S. Lewis


Against too many writers of science fiction

Why did you lure us on like this,
Light-year on light-year, through the abyss,
Building (as though we cared for size!)
Empires that cover galaxies
If at the journey's end we find
The same old stuff we left behind,
Well-worn Tellurian stories of
Crooks, spies, conspirators, or love,
Whose setting might as well have been
The Bronx, Montmartre, or Bedinal Green?

Why should I leave this green-floored cell,
Roofed with blue air, in which we dwell,
Unless, outside its guarded gates,
Long, long desired, the Unearthly waits
Strangeness that moves us more than fear,
Beauty that stabs with tingling spear,
Or Wonder, laying on one's heart
That finger-tip at which we start
As if some thought too swift and shy
For reason's grasp had just gone by?

just had a customer called Mr Chase Jade McBain

[CoB]

cool name bro

[DBoy]

When I wake up people take up mostly all of my time
I'm not singin', phone keep ringin' cause I make up a rhyme
I'm not braggin', people naggin' cause they think I'm a star
Always tearin' what I'm wearin', I think they're goin' too far
A girl named Carol follows Daryll every gig we play
Then D dissed her and dismissed her, now she's jockin' Jay
I ain't lyin', girls be cryin' cause I'm on TV
They even bother my poor father cos he's down with me

[system]

he carvin', they hatin'.

[CoB]

lol

[witty_pseudonym]

yeh that guy is awesome!!!

i really astounds me how retarded people in senior positions can be sometimes. no attention to detail whatsoever. you give them very easy to follow instructions, and they fuck it up, making themselves look stupid. sheesh!

[Lizkins]

hehehe you said "sheesh"

[retzie]

You is talking about academics, aren't you?

[witty_pseudonym]

they definitely fall within that category.

[youthful_implants]

I have met barristers before who have trouble tying their own shoe-laces.

[retzie]

Heh, I worked uni admin as my casual gig during undergrad. Now I'm on the other side it's pretty lol to see other academics soooo confused that I manage to complete basic tasks. If the photocopier jams, they just leave it and run away.

It has made it very very very infuriating having shithouse admin people here, though

[witty_pseudonym]

Academics are useless at most things outside of their writing and research. Working with philosophers was total lol, if not immensely infuriating. Now I'm working with pretty switched on people, directors of think tanky kind of places...and they still have no idea.

Also, on the useless note, it astounds me how many school teachers cannot write to save themselves. God forbid my kids are ever at their mercy!

[huge]

huhu. if you guys find peoples lack of basic modern day work function abilities then you should not work in I.T.

people who have been using windows xp for 10 years and and computers for probably 15, still have no idea what you are talking about when you ask them to click the start button or the difference between monitor and computer, difference between log off and reboot, how to change their password.

not limited to computers tho. not able to plug into and turn on a projector is one of my pet peeves.

seriously what the deuce mate? how to you even manage to feed yourself!?

[witty_pseudonym]

need an 'everyone else is stupid' thread.

[gnat]

lol huge! i must admit i can never find my asset number when i call them up. although it's been in the same place the entire 5 years i've had the computer...hmmm what

also i accidentally an entire cup of mini chips ahoy. sugar rushing. work from home fail

[huge]

i dont bother asking for asset numbers any longer. can get it from just knowing their name. at least they should have no problems telling you what that is!

chips ahoy ftw! not had them for yonks. another think i havent had for ages and am now wanting, honey flavoured tiny teddies.

would eat.

[gnat]

hahaha! the boys in IT at my work always sound like hotties on the phone. sometimes i call up christian to help me organise my outlook just because i'm bored lol sshh

mini chips ahoy are teeny! so cute. but i just ate at least 35 of them. oink

[youthful_implants]

seriously what the deuce mate? how to you even manage to feed yourself!?

hahaha!

[gnat]

p.s ROFLLLLLL at then he cupped my balls spidey. best

[Lizkins]

haha we have people run away from the photocopiers here too, hilarious!

also basic Word functioning, wait what is that?

my massive peeve here is how to format a letter or even write one properly. One partner was using semi-colons to start a bullet list, and then colons to end each bullet. I thought it was one letter, but it kept happening. Well awkward to correct someone who is 20 years my senior.

i just got sent this email -

"Next Wednesday is we have a Federal Budget Breakfast in the morning and the majority of the team will be up all night preparing the for the event the next morning. Some team members have suggested that presenting material at lunch time is unlikely to happen."

argh!

*cough*Many academics*cough*

Somehow, I don't think anyone's going to find my dumb student stories funny

[witty_pseudonym]

dumb student stories are definitely lol, i just fear that i'm one of them amongst my lecturers.
