And so I do.

1. My privacy was violated, and I'm not feeling too keen about that.
2. My feet did that thing that they do, so I'm walking with the stick today, when I'm walking at all.
3. I need a crash course in perl, and I'm not finding what I need on the net.

I can't express how much it hurts when someone you trust betrays that trust. It just...hurts.

He's deleted his account.

This makes me sad.

You fuck up, you deal with the outfall and keep going.

You don't run and hide.

We all fuck up.

[azurelunatic]

Well... I run and hide.

[nilodlien.livejournal.com]

Point taken.

Clarification: I don't want him to run and hide.

He's still important to me.

*nods* Which is why I'm avoiding giving out his name to those of my friends who are offering to help, because I know I'll eventually calm down, and I'm right now too pissed to be responsible for what my friends do.

Speak softly, but carry a BIG STICK.

Preferably the one they used to stab you in the back? What irony.... beat them with the stick they stuck you with.

*sigh* I'm grumpy. I'm grouchy. I'm pretty mad.

I don't want to hurt 'em too badly, though.

Start with Learning Perl, read from the front until you feel confident, and don't publicize the link TOO much because they're not supposed to be up on the Web for free reading. (I own them too though, so....)

If you have any "how do you do this?" questions on the language, I may be able to answer them. I can't, however, read others' perl code, unless they happen to write the sort of C-like perl I write.

[azurelunatic]

Oooooh.

I can help out w/ reading code. Just remember:

#!/usr/bin/perl -w
use strict;

also, if I decide to buy myself a new Camel Book, you can have my old one. It's only 5.005, but it's still a good resource.

It is t3h weird to see this comment on this post!

[sithjawa.livejournal.com]

You asked.

[azurelunatic]

Yes, it is.

[azurelunatic]

I mean, yes, I did.

It is still wierd.
