Nice Brokie-isms, and welcome to the forum

[coffeedrinkintexan]

CellarDweller and Sason, I think I recognize you from another recently-joined forum. My username over there (one'senough) was already taken here, so had to find another handle.

I'm doing a final project for my research design & statistics class, and because my data are skewed (can't help it, just the way it happened), there are certain tests I can't run to analyze them. The last half of today's facebook status update is, "Tell you what....the truth is, I want to use parametric analyses so much I can hardly stand it."

Yup, Sonja and I are on both forums.  Nice to see you here, and there!  LOL

Well CDT, that's a god damn bitch of an unsatisfactory situation!  Also known around here as a GDBOAUS 

(and yes, what Chuck said)

It was a GDBOAUS. Definitely!

But if you can't fix it, Jack, you gotta stand it.

Sometimes it's just too perfect...

We've been working a LOT of hours, especially the supervisors and managers, usually 8am to 6pm or later, then log in from home, and a lot of Saturdays. 

This afternoon I got up from my desk to stretch, and my supervisor was standing up in front of his desk.  He saw me and closed his eyes and pretended to fall backwards, asleep.

Yes, I said it..........he's sleepin on his feet like a horse.......

And if they react in any noticeable way it's like a secret Brokie handshake!

You mean there really is a secret handshake?

You mean there really is a secret handshake? 

No, it's a password. Or rather, a set of passwords. Including "shit, that's hard" and "fast or slow, I like the direction you're going," or ""this is a goddamn bitch of an unsatisfactory situation" and so on. If you say those things and someone gives you a knowing look, they're a Brokie.

This has never actually happened to me, but it sure would be fun if if did!
