Re: THE RANT THREAD!

The 'Am I Human?' question in the profile settings won't let me answer with 'I am a meat popsicle'. I feel that is a valid option under the circumstances :P

If it makes you feel any better, it's a hidden field that no one will ever see anyway. I only added it just now because I'm trying a new tactic to combat the damn spammers. I may do away with it if it proves to be useless. :P

Edit: Also, DAMN WOMAN! That option hasn't even been there for 30 minutes. How did you find it so fast?!
Nevermind. I know how you found it.

Perze, You know what. You may go ahead and use that answer. I've decided to bump it up to 30 characters. Unique answers like that certainly won't hurt my cause and who am I to deny you the pleasure of having fun with that question? (Do you think I should make that field visible to all users, even?)

Edit: This feels like such a one sided conversation. I've decided not to make it a hidden field. I want people to have fun with this, if they choose to, anyway. That, or I'll be getting a lot of hate mail. XD

Happy to serve as a sounding board. You totally made my day Rant resolved.

Let her know I shall burn two flags and kill three infidels to defend her honor.

I told her to make sure she was going towards a religion and not running from one. She's decided to give the hijabi another go tomorrow. I hope it goes well for her.

Re: THE RANT THREAD!

Ugh job hunting sucks. There are so few entry level positions in what I want to do, and unfortunately this country doesn't operate on the "any experience is good experience" principle. So, I have to somehow get on my proper career path, but it's so hard to start! Meanwhile, there are tons of internships in what I'm doing now (content writing/editiorial) but I've been doing that for years and I just don't feel willing to be paid 400-500 Euros a month full-time for it. But there's nothing in THAT beyond internships (and I don't really want to do it as my career, but I'm looking into expanding my options). ARG.

Re: THE RANT THREAD!

No, please, ask away. We don't mind sitting down and typing out a whole two episodes of a crappy anime into romaji so you and your sister can fandub it from Japanese to Japanese. Of course this isn't a problem. It is for things like this that I study the language. While you're here, why don't you ask me to write something in kanji so you can tattoo your ass, or why not demand that we 'teach you all of Japanese now', and then get pissy when we tell you that hard study is genuinely the only way to learn a language.

There is nothing like participating in another forum, to make one appreciate how civilized Pagan Forum is, even if we are a teeny bit bonkers sometimes.

Re: THE RANT THREAD!

When I came in, I told you not to let K post cash. It seemed understood that K would pass any cash-paying guest on to a different clerk. I even picked up a bank & stood next to him so he'd have someone to pass cash to. I understand, you don't want to embarrass him or anything, don't want to make it a big hairy deal... but...

Why did you let K post cash, knowing he has issues with money, and the system was going offline for maintenance?

K's cash was wrong. Of course it was. What did you expect? Are you seriously that insane to expect a different outcome this time?

All of my coworkers are retarded, each in their own very special ways.

Re: THE RANT THREAD!

My obscenity filter keeps me from posting as much as I'd like to!

I'm reading. I'm browsing and listening. I just don't DARE open my cake hole, for fear of disrupting the forum(s) tranquility! I just want to rock the boat "a LITTLE"!!



Solved, rather. Too many people suffering too many abuses for no purpose!















You're welcome.

Tolerance is such a gift. I guess not everyone has evolved enough to understand the manual yet.

Re: THE RANT THREAD!

I agree with the Oatmeal...Printers are sent from hell to make us miserable!

I don't understand why HP, Canon, and the like disrespect their customers so much. How stupid do they think we are? I can't print a black and white document because I'm out of Magenta? I'm out of ink, when I'm clearly printing black (back in the day, it still printed when you were out of ink, and it just went more and more grey until it didn't print at all). I hacked it, so it will print like it did in the good old days, but it's causing the printer to occasionally say I'm out of ink when I'm not. So I have to keep reloading the cartridge. Still better than having to buy ink when I'm not out though. I'm smarter than you, HP.

DanieMarie, I am so with you on that.

I'll be working on something that HAS to be ready for tomorrow, and, at the last minute, the printer will refuse to print because there's no color... but I only need black!

It's an hour drive to town and back to buy one... Usually late at night...



Current rant -

I spent 4 hours working with a client to make a sale that would net me about $5 in profit, then she backed out. Sometimes it does not pay to be nice to people, but that's busines, and when you're a little guy, it NEVER pays not to be nice to people.

Always buy from the little guys, when you can.
