So.. I tested other people's breastmilk today.
Yes, you read that right. No, it was NOT a *taste*test. I played scientist and took part in a consumer test (paid, I might add) where I squirted (real! live!!!) breastmilk onto test strips and decided if the alcohol level was too high. [side note: it really was alive! did you know that breastmilk is alive??! okay, not alive-alive, but it's full of live cultures and metabolizes for hours and hours after it's out there, sitting in a cup on the table. crazy.] It was marvelous. I even looked the part (sorry, no pics). I donned a lab coat, latex gloves, and goggles for the testing, just in case the breastmilk was filled with teh AIDS. Or something. But I'm pretty sure it wasn't, plus I didn't get any in my eyes (or mouth, yeck!), so don't worry.
And clearly I have not matured much, because everytime I say it aloud to someone I burst into fits of giggles.

I booted a guy out of my guild because even though we're now living in President Blackazoid's post-racial utopia, I still don't find racist jokes funny. Admittedly, I lost my temper. But you know what? Fuck it. In World of Warcraft, you don't know who is behind the toon. I guess it's interesting, in an academic way, how everybody assumes that A) everybody else is a white dude and B) that makes ok to tell racist, sexist jokes. As an officer in this guild, I'd like to build a core raid group that is successful at downing bosses and getting the loot, and that means we have to attract skilled players. You don't attract and keep good people if it gets around that you've got a trashy guild. The last thing I want is for a skilled tank or healer to ditch the guild because some fuckface can't keep his trap shut. Call me crazy, but I'd like for the game environment to be fun rather than hostile.
