poetterware

Poetterware is a type of software mostly found on Linux systems, for example systemd, pulseaudio, policykit, consolekit, xdg-open, colord and more.
This software generally works very well and solves really complicated problems, but if it doesn't behave the way it should, you will have a hard time debugging the issue (e.g. via dbus), working around it (by quick hacks) or use alternative software. It may be written by Lennart Poettering or the freedesktop foundation or other participants in the ecosystem.

You're using Gentoo Linux with systemd? Yes, although it's poetterware it works very well for me.

pretty girls make graves

A narrative song from The Smiths that concludes in Morrissey losing hope of ever sustaining a relationship with a woman. Also the name of a band from Seattle, which formed almost two decades after that brilliant song was written.

Upon the sand, upon the bay

"There is a quick and easy way" you say

Before you illustrate

I'd rather state :

"I'm not the man you think I am

I'm not the man you think I am"

And Sorrow's native son

He will not smile for anyone

And Pretty Girls Make Graves

Ohh....

End of the pier, end of the bay

You tug my arm, and say : "Give in to lust,

Give up to lust, oh heaven knows we'll

Soon be dust ... "

Oh, I'm not the man you think I am

I'm not the man you think I am

And Sorrow's native son

He will not rise for anyone

And Pretty Girls Make Graves

Oh, really ?
Oh ...

NJIT Pretty

A substandard attractiveness scale applicable towards young female students at the New Jersey Institute of Technology in Newark, NJ. Due to a horrendous 8:1 Male:Female ratio, a young lady that might otherwise be considered unattractive, annoying, or even a potential psychopath at another University is considered attractive to the young men at NJIT, therefore "NJIT Pretty".

"Bro, that girl is pretty fugly and might choke you in your sleep. Run now"

"Dude, she's the only girl in all of my classes and the ones in Laurel smell bad. Shes NJIT Pretty"

"Ah true bro. Make sure I get your PS3 when you die.
