🎂The cupcake thread of celebrations.

-
I'm glad that pumpkin beer is spreading around here, so that means there's more good beer left over for me.
-
more good beer
More beer cupcakes!

Black and tan-cake?
-
-
Not quite what I had in mind...
-
-
That wasn't a rottweiler, it was a Black and Tan, or "Black and Tan Coonhound" in some jurisdictions.
-
True, but at least it was a black and tan dog cake.

End of spec-less hell project in sight. Have sign off on a deploy to production for new website for early testing tomorrow, followed by a week of last minute bug fixes/new feature requests and I can wash my hands of it. Strongly considering cutting out a little early today and doing more on the weekend to get my next feature done as I get overtime for weekend work on this project.
In short, celebrating end of frustration.
EDIT: managed to do a ninja edit to make that fit here vs. the other thread I thought of putting it in.

For really bad headaches, Excedrin is best: aspirin + acetaminophen + caffeine.
The best thing I've tried was (IIRC) a mix of acetaminophen, ibuprofen and codeine. I was taking it for a tooth that needed major work (along with a massive dose of two antibiotics, several times stronger than the normal limit). Suddenly I couldn't feel anything at all. Wonderful, given that acute pain had been my life 24 hours earlier, and now I could sleep. As soon as the swelling was down enough, got everything fixed (and the dentist did a really nice job). Yes, that was a prescription-only mix (anything stronger tends to involve morphine and injections) but I really did not mind at all as it did the trick perfectly.The best part? It got me out of a horrible business trip I didn't want to do, as I was completely off my head, first on pain then on that drug mix. (This was around 10 years ago. Not celebrating any more.)

(This was around 10 years ago. Not celebrating any more.)
I discovered /r/tifu on reddit t'other day. Maybe from here. If they don't care that your celebration's not current, I certainly don't. You'll have to ask @Yamikuronue if she's willing to cup' you.
[~] notice that apostrophe. It works just like a regular contraction. Get your mind out of the gutter.

i'm celebrating being awesome and finding a bug in the code before it caused problems.
of course i put it there in the first place, but that was past me so that doesn't count.
-
I'm celebrating that I made my program run 3.1 times faster
$ time ./cmv2gif-old dwarf_fortress.cmv real 0m25.277s user 0m23.010s sys 0m2.604s $ time ./cmv2gif-new dwarf_fortress.cmv real 0m8.180s user 0m7.497s sys 0m0.768s
-
wheeeeee?
-
-
Dwarf Fortress has cutscenes!? Holy shit.
-
I take it you've never opened Dwarf Fortress, then? That's what plays before the main menu. It has audio as well. You can cancel it with esc.
-
I've never even downloaded it. Why would I have?
-
Well, you're a gamerist, so I assumed you gamed.
<disclaimer: these are not words>
-
I do, which is why I don't play Dwarf Fortress, which is work.
Besides, I only need 2000 more XP in World of Tanks to unlock the KV-1S.
-
Tempted to play Worms: Armageddon now.

Chocolate chili cupcakes!
-
Just bothered to get the mail.
Someone, from my seminar, put a $50 in my slot with a note: "Thank you for the budgeting info".
Wooo Hooo! ( Honestly wasn't expecting anything other than occasional thanks ).

Chocolate surprise cupcakes!

Ok, here's what is there now:
Going to the image link:
Why do people think this is acceptable?
-
-
That's not a reason, it's a disease…
-
I've never seen a WordPress site do that before. Usually the template has some sort of "no, there's nothing here" page, but I guess this one has that monstrosity instead.
-
I'm celebrating finishing my generic centered interval tree multimap. Removing things from it is scary.
-
That looks like it was fun! Really!
I'll have to give that a try in Perl ( most fluent, know useful idioms, etc… ).
-
…And then maybe port THAT to Python as a jump-starter for really trying to get comfy w/ Python.
-
Minor celebration: I've seen the sun today! (The past week of constant thick cloud cover was a bit of a downer…)

Kind of sounds like a Dogbert move. Host a budgeting seminar for people who are bad with money and convince them to give more to you.
-
-
Somebody gave you $50 for budgeting info...
I feel like maybe the point of a budget was lost on them.
-
I'm celebrating nothing, my life is and has always been a pointless piece of shit.
-
I'm not gonna go and look but I think shit cupcakes have already been pictured.
-
-
I beat something called "Tomomo Hell".
After 10 billion tries.

Does seem that way, doesn't it?
You can lead a horse, and all that.

i'm celebrating pizza, that i made, with my hands, using yeast and flour and oil and oats and bran and tomato sauce i made from tomatoes and basil in the slow cooker, and pepperoni, which i could have made but was too lazy to use the meat grinder so i bought it, same with the cheese.
also the caffeine.... i've had a bit of that today, ok a lot of it,m but i have it under control i swear. why is the wall vibrating?

@Yamikuronue don't forget me!

Sorry, your celebration was so fascinating I went down a rabbit hole trying to find just the right cupcake XD
In apology, have two:

Oh! I got myself a connector for my headphones. Only ordered it yesterday (Saturday) and it arrived today (Sunday). Which was unexpectedly fast, especially when choosing the “cheapest possible shipping” option. I'll now (probably) be able to use the headset microphone in Skype meetings instead of the laptop mic (which picks up when I type…)
