Okay.

So one day, theres two Canadian Geese outside our office door. The door is glass, and they are trying to get in. I thought it was funny. Us engineers gathered around and watched the geese. Do you realize how big they really are? Makes me want to eat em, mmmmmm :)

Some facts about canadian geese:
  • Geese mate for life.
  • If one dies, the other usually does too.
  • Canadian Geese FULLY protected by law in ohio.
  • Our door is glass.
Okay! So, for the last WEEK, these geese are trying to get INSIDE the office! Ahhhh! Why?

Inside office = Warm nest

Aight aight. So every time I go outside, they hiss! Geese hiss??? I GUESS SO!

They have nested near our office complex. Okay, so soon we will have LOTS of geese.

Now, get this. Goose? He hides behind the concrete wall, outside my window.

Except his head.

Like a periscope.

He spies on me daily! Every moment I look up, HE IS THERE. I can't take it anymore! Spies! That stupid goose stares at me ALLLLL day. I am going crazy.

I have included an illustration. Goose. Behind wall. Outside window.

Please help,

Ryoko.

...You...are one unique individual, Ryoko! :P Did someone for get to take their meds today?!

No, seriously: That has to be both annoying as hell and hugely funny! :D Take a real picture!
 
Hahaha!

I feel sorry for you. My recent happening is that a stupid woodpecker keeps pecking out of our house...and they're protected by those dang tree huggers of PA.
 
BWAHAHAHAHAHAHHAA ahhh, this is almost as good as the mouse hunt of '04! Yeah geese hiss, case in point, Ken, when he was like 5 and was at the park and geese hissed at him, and he hissed back, and they ran him down and bit his behind. So, moral of the story, whatever you do, don't hiss back.
 
HAHAHAHA

Good luck with that man, but maybe you'll need 2 hamburgers, those geese are not that dumb to take only 1 :D
 
Looks like a solid plan to me. Good call on that double chee, maybe you catch him in half the time that way? Make sure the half naked chick has the bike running already to cut down on get away time, those geese are fast when they get going LOL
 
Lol, very good plan. it reminds me of that one steven king movie, where he sling shots a pepsi can at the switch on the wall, and then the monster bat thing gets groundup, and then the rats are all eating it, and then....anyone know what I'm talking about?....ok, nvm....
 
I like your plan Ryoko.:D

Same thing's going on with me and my cat. Bastard sits outside my sliding glass door peaking her head in and staring at me. I had it open the other day to get some air in and she got on my bookshelf and did nothing but stare at me.

Then there are 2 movies with slingshots that steven king made. Think the one i saw was...um...graveyard, something. Had the word graveyard.

EDIT: Graveyard Shift!
 
Ok we need another Ryoko one in the Hall of Fame. He was one interesting guy that is for sure.

    LOL! A tweak job!
  • The Helper The Helper:
    this is the fix I get from that yeah this is hard to control. disabling bots is pretty much necessary as ai and other bots would push really old threads to the top. reduce weight of view count. disable guest view tracking if you really want to push active threads to the top. a bit of tinkering for a few days with the weights and other settings should get you a decent trending widget box.
  • Ghan Ghan:
    I changed the settings a bit.
  • Ghan Ghan:
    Narrowed it to 7 days for the half-life and set views to 0 weight.
  • The Helper The Helper:
    I dont think Trending would work for this forum it would be better to just have the last 5 posts from anywhere
  • Ghan Ghan:
    Probably will have to give it some time to update.
  • Ghan Ghan:
    I'm guessing it is not retroactive.
  • Ghan Ghan:
    Next on the punch list: Update the server to Ubuntu 24.04.
  • The Helper The Helper:
    Mad Lads is new I see it displays original post date
  • The Helper The Helper:
    as long as it changes it is good - it is good now it updated and its new stuff
  • The Helper The Helper:
    One thing I have noticed and I dont know if it is by design but like 1 out of 3 times I come to the site the Anubis screen just hangs open, if I refresh it will go away but sometimes it hangs
  • Ghan Ghan:
    I've seen that as well.
  • The Helper The Helper:
    Wow - the change in the stats are major. I kind of knew it was all bots but wow, to see the effect. Why the social media sites cant do something like this I have no idea.
  • Ghan Ghan:
    Probably inflates their numbers so they look better to advertisers.
  • The Helper The Helper:
    Yeah google does not filter those bots. I remember when Apex was doing Google ads I saw the same IPs in there as I was seeing here - google is totally tracking all those bots as traffic and most google traffic, at least ours, was all bots
  • The Helper The Helper:
    oh wow, i bet i can post x links now and do the webp pics now giggity
  • The Helper The Helper:

    Weekend went by too fast. Next weekend I am going to try to do a nature thing - buddy of mine lives by the Colorado river and has some kayaks and invited me to do some kayaking from a place he knows to get on the river.
  • Ghan Ghan:
    That sounds like an adventure.
