Personal Top Lists & Rankings

I made a promise, so here is my definitive list of the most infuriating things AutoCAD users do—I am honestly fuming right now.

1. When my colleagues blow up the base file just so they can work on it, because what on earth are they going to do with all those polylines? Then they send it back to me, and I’m left wanting to scream. Of course, they don't clean anything up, so I can't even perform a simple task like xrefing the original base—say, a tiny rotation of maybe 0.0389674 degrees 😠just for kicks. Wow. Just... wow. 🙂
2. When people refuse to use blocks!!!!!! Instead, they draw every single door using nothing but lines and arcs, and then—get this—every single window is on its own separate layer. Lovely. Every single leader arrow consists of about seventy individual segments, because apparently, making it easy to select them is too much to ask. Using blocks with attributes? Clearly, that's far too advanced for them.
3. Hatching every single tiny piece of wall or brickwork individually. It's maddening!
4. Failing to use ordinate dimensions in sections for height elevations. Absolutely infuriating!
(All of this is inspired by the specific file I am currently working on—or rather, trying to save somehow.)
5. Relying exclusively on *nearest snaps. It's absolutely childish—truly amateur hour. They actually have the nerve to brag about how fast they draw! I don't work with that particular person anymore, but there was a time when I felt a daily urge to write to Autodesk and beg them to remove "nearest" from the next version.

Anyway, how are you all doing today? 🙂

God, why would anyone actually like hospitals? 😲 😲 I’ll never forget the one time I visited a buddy in an infectious disease ward... the whole place just reeked of sickness :horror:.....The only decent spot was the cardiology wing over at the Newport News facility; it’s like a rooftop penthouse/solarium filled with plants.

But that’s just their job. They get paid for it. And they get paid whether they actually step up or not...

So, they did this study among our med students (if anyone actually bothered to look) about why people even enroll in medical school, blah, blah...

The results (something along these lines):
1. Money
2. Social status

6. Helping other people

And honestly, why are we even surprised? I remember this one doctor who was "treating" my grandma—he basically told my dad and aunt straight to their faces that he had no clue what was wrong with her, but if they just wired a few hundred or a thousand bucks to his private account, he might be able to figure it out. 🙂 Then, when she passed away, they wouldn't even tell us what happened; we had to find out from some guy working in the ER who finally spilled the beans on what actually went down.

1. A couple of slices of artisanal jerky from a local farmstead
2. Black tea
3. Honey
4. Lemon

👎

clean, refined taste 🙂
an elevated flavor profile 🤔

our cutting-edge selective filtration—using nothing but natural absorbers—is what truly puts Avangard years ahead of the pack 🤣 😂

bad seed said:the doctor who basically "shortchanged" my grandmother was blunt enough to tell my dad and aunt he had no clue what was wrong with her—unless, of course, they dropped a few hundred or even a thousand bucks into his private account to get some answers 🙂 and after she passed, they wouldn't give us the truth; we actually had to find out what happened from a guy working the ER floor.

🙂

...then again, I have met genuinely kind and selfless doctors... you really can't paint everyone with the same brush 🙂

Top three women I happened to run into today between noon and 3 PM:

1. A total goddess😍 living near the campus dining hall. Pure beauty.
2. Some girl who walked into the men's locker room after being at the pool while I was in there (I nearly passed out), and she actually spoke to me. It was kind of cute.
3. Someone on a bike wearing leggings with a total activist vibe.

Harold Wright54 said:3. maybe in those tight bike shorts (you know, that whole Antifa look).

Oh man... I am totally 😳 down to see some really hot guy on a bike from behind, especially when he's doing that thing where he stands up on the pedals (whatever you call it... who even cares...)

pet said:I promised a list, so here’s the ultimate hall of shame for AutoCAD users. Honestly, I'm still fuming.

I hate getting a base with warped elevations. It’s the worst... especially when you only realize it right as you're starting a 3D model.😠

how's everyone doing today? 🙂

Rough. Total headache. 😁

Food I'd kill for right now if it were actually in my kitchen:
1. Truffles
2. Steak in peppercorn sauce
3. Slow-cooked beef stew
4. Veggie lasagna
5. Venison hunter-style

1. A total knockout😍 living near the campus dining hall—basically Aphrodite herself.

Are we talking about "the one who shall not be named"? 😁

Harold Wright54 said:3. maybe just in cycling shorts (Antifa style).

David Sullivan4 said:Man, you're totally tripping! That guy isn't some rockstar from Nickelback or anything—that’s just Robin Booth. He actually lives over in a quiet neighborhood in Chicago. 😬

Man, I knew you wouldn't be able to just let this one slide, huh?😈

Robin Booth said:I knew you wouldn't be able to keep your mouth shut about this, would I?😈

just an American

Samuel Murphy6 said:I guess we might be looking at tea served at exactly freezing! That’s certainly one way to start the morning, though I imagine it might be a bit of a shock to the system. Maybe it's just a little too chilly for my taste, but hey, stay frosty! 😈

☕ 🙂

I’m with you there. Honestly, I’d probably lose my cool and take out whoever is responsible for letting money leak out of the glass while someone’s just trying to enjoy a drink. 🙂

Oh, you wouldn't believe it if I told you!

Why are you getting so worked up? The guy clearly wrote "no tea."
Besides, tea is supposed to be served lukewarm anyway.
The only thing that actually needs to be hot is the burgers.

I’m currently sipping on the hottest green tea on the planet (paired with some toasted almonds). It’s basically a religious experience.
You guys are all soft...☕ 🙂
