Or inspirational?

Now you should really worry if they say they have 3d printers.

Been there, done that though with a dietician. "Here, out this Mediterranean style food" <hands over menu> "Errr, but when I eat this type of food I put weight on and feel grotty." <one week later> "You put on 15 lbs?" <the look> "I told you. You're fired."

I am led to believe that this is an unfortunate turn of phrase.

Why does this not surprise me?

Absolutely disgusting and that they would do this to a published author, too.

One of the best printers I ever had. It was a shame to see it disappear when we moved to a new house.
