Damn Japanese bank still blocking my creditcard. I will give the asswhooping.
Also, I think the cold that I’ve been having for the past two months has finally disappeared. And on that note: my room really smells! Or rather, the roof next to my room smells, and now it’s infecting my room as well..
I’ve been cleaning up a bit at work, and I rediscovered a file with various quotes that the interns and I thought funny enough to log. I’ll share some of them here, for nostalgias sake. I omitted the names and the countries cause I don’t want to offend people. It’s been a great couple of years, and there’s a lot more quotes besides these, but these are the only ones that are quite context-free and devoid of vulgar language
On countries, language, culture and misunderstandings

Intern R trying his security card: it doesn't work!
Intern W: that's because you are bad personality.
Intern R: Every Japanese person in any kind of vehicle will eventually fall asleep and fall on you
Intern to M to Intern R: here's a copy of the scientific paper, because you probably didn't get it.
Intern W: But my [speech recognition] model is not wrong! It's just DIFFERENT!
Good times!
Why is that there’s always some asshole who leaves his shit in the dryer for the whole day, preventing other people from doing their laundry? Let’s contemplate on that for a moment while I molest someone.
Today a young man on acid realized that all matter is merely energy condensed into a slow vibration, that we are all one consciousness experiencing itself subjectively, there is no such thing as death life is only a dream and we’re the imagination of ourselves…Here’s Tom with the weather.
