I can bring the live action Tick to the next D*C. Funny stuff.
I like Epic Naughty....

Well you should certainly look for the animated series at least. Quality TV even if you don't catch all of the references.
As for "epic naughty" I should think that would fit into almost every conversation here in the tower.

In addition to plans for D*C, If you guys want to pre schedule a dinner, let me know. Apparently I can have the concierge arrange that months ahead of time.

DISASTER!!!!!!
i need to cry! I just went to start writing more job application letters and looked over my c.v. and theres a WHOLE CHUNK OF TEXT MISSING! i don't know how! I looked back on the computer at the original, i checked the ones i sent via email, i even went to a site i'd uploaded it to and they're all fine! but on the ones i printed out there's a bit in the middle of the fourth sentence down, two or so words just dissappeared, blank space where they were, like some one rubbed them out with an eraser, and i really can't work out how... and now those people who got them are just going to stick the c.vs in the bin without even reading further, and i really wanted two of those jobs to go to interview, and now... i mean who's going to hire someone who lets a mistake like that slip past? i don't know wtf happened.
i think i'm cursed, i really do, something is just following me round f****** everthing up so that i'm stuck in that job for the rest of my life, i need to cry, why does this happen? why didn't i spot it? i looked those cvs over three times at least. How?
Isn't sanity really a one trick pony, anyway? I mean all you get is one trick, rational thinking! But when you're good and crazy...ooh hoo hoo hoo... the skys the limit!

I don't know if there's deadlines involved with your c.v. submissions, but, if there's still time, you need to re-submit the corrected versions soonest!
Whatever word processing application you are using, it's clearly not parsing with 100% reliability, a fact you have sussed the hard way. Now that you know this, I'm certain you've already decided to proofread with greater care.
When you resubmit your c.v., a short note explaining your technical difficulties would not be amiss. Remember that the the folks reading your submission have tiny attention spans.
You're too talented to be overlooked by all of those who read your c.v. Don't give up on account of a technical glitch, okay?

Yup, I agree with cozen. Resubmit STAT. Short note explanation. All is not lost!
When I was applying for my 1st nanny job, I had this horrid apartment with a horrid roommate. I came home late one night to find she'd chained the door so I couldn't get in and then when I knocked and rang the bell, she yelled at me for waking up her 2 year old. She then proceeded to cuss me out, accusing me of stealing a $100 lottery ticket she couldn't find. As if!
After a horrible fight and a worse night, I got up extra early to go to a job interview to discover that the family had called the house the night before and the roommate from hell had answered the phone and told them not to hire me because I was "a lying, theiving b****." I was gobsmacked. But I apologized, briefly explained the situation, finished the interview and went home and immediately called the father (who hadn't been there at the interview) and apologized for my roommate's behaviour. I then moved out and was subsequently homeless for over a month, but that's another story.
Anyway, this story has a happy ending! Because they did end up hiring me and I was very happy working for them for 3 whole years.
And, the moral of course is to simply admit your error and move on! It'll make you look better in the long run because it proves you can handle mistakes and are mature and worthy of hiring!

Yes, Cozen is right. Just resubmit. Worst thing that could happen is the see your name again and it sticks in their head. That's not too bad really.

Forgive my shortness. I have a migraine, and my ussual drugs are gone so I'm overdosing on everything else.
