SO I dont have power... Projected time 10 days. SO I am like okay I will stay in a hotel. Well they are all full except for one. Call and say hey.. how much per night. Do you know they actually had the nerve to say $100 with a straight face. Seriously who the hell has $1,000 laying around like that. Its a college town you price gouging censor.gif . I would ask if money grew on tress but that wouldnt work cause there arent any trees around cause they all got obliterated by the ice. What makes it worse is I want to buy cigarettes but I cant cause the 7-11 I go to doesnt have power (I get a discount)

I hate when the stupid computer I use for Photoshop and other design stuff has a random disk error - which makes me have to reboot the computer. Even more than that though, I hate when it won't let me save my work first... so I lose what I've been working on for the last half hour. smash.gif

Shouldn't this be a rave? ohmy.gif

They bought the book, not the rights to publish it.

Essentially they're just posting reviews of all the stories and a few pictures, but that's it.

I don't understand why people complain about herstorytelling. If you like it, you like it. You buy it. If you don't, why do you act stupidly and pretend you don't know why such a huge fuss is being made about the book? Also, all the witch things on amazon are funny.

My rant: I hate missing an opportunity with someone. I really do.

I just found out that only 8 episodes of Lost got done before the stupid Writers Strike... so the new season I've been looking forward to for like ever... is only going to be 8 weeks long. sad.gif

Why won't they just give the writers the money or whatever already so they'll get back to work and stop messing up my freakin tv? crying.gif

Even though there are five broadcast channels, there's only one organization representing them all.

Even though there are lots of writers, there's only one organization representing the ones that aren't writing right now, and it's a big chunk.

So, really, you're witnessing the reason we have laws against monopolies. If we didn't have them, the channels without striking writers would be raping the stations who have been on reruns for a while now.

Yes - and then maybe the channels would just give the frick in already. Meh, I am displeased. Stupid channels need to stop being so tightwadish or whatever. Eight weeks! And my other shows I like are in trouble too. pissed.gif

I watch a lot of TV dammit. laugh.gif

The packaging for Microsoft Office.

Yes, it's simple once you figure it out. Yes it makes you feel like a retard. Yes, my next step, had I not gone online for a step by step, pictoral explination was going to be climbing up somewhere really really high and dropping it.

I don't know, the packaging for XP took us pliers and a couple levers to get open before we realized that the not how or where we thought it was.... The fact that it had cardboard coverthings that opened normally, bookwise, didn't help either.

Dude, they seriously called generics multi-type classes? Wtf. Not even sun calls them that, afaik. (I am taking that stupid SCJP certificate, cause our teach forced us to. And that's my rant, I guess.)


Aren't they also called something like "abstract" too? Kantian ethics make sense as an abstract class for some reason........ That was extremely tangential.

EDIT: Almost missed this one... mrh.

ALL GLORY TO HYPNOPIE!!!

EDIT EDIT: I'm gonna stop posting now. Insanity has reached critical mass. Scouters read it at OVER NINE THOUSAND!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Yeah that sucks. We have to wait like, over half a year just for a few weeks. Stupid writers! ohmy.gif Who cares about their pay, I want my new episodes!

Why is there a warning on the frozen frenchbread pizza box that tells people to cook the food? Unless you're starving and have no cooking method, an uncooked frozen frenchbred pizza just doesn't scream yum, ya know? laugh.gif
