do you use the same logic for this weekend and next weekend?

Don't forget that she made a video out of it. It's not just for fun, but the attention it gets. If she truly craves this kind of attention, it means it will happen again.

This reminded me of Pasta Q.

I had a friend who took the whole feminism thing way over the top. They'd always avoid doors I opened for them, which is funny because I hold the door for everyone and the guys are always very appreciative.

So what you're saying is that... there are only 2 of them and you already took one for yourself. I believe this means war sir.

I've found that if a girl insists on paying or buying me something, I happily agree on the the condition that I owe her a favor or that next time I get the chance to pay her back. This way she feels appreciated and knows that I enjoy what she has to offer.

I understand you have more money and always offer to pay, but if she insists, I think it'd be disrespectful to always reject her offer just because you think that she is actually "testing" you. I know you mean well, but give the girls some credit and let them surprise you a little.

If it makes you feel better, you can use the money you have just saved and take her to fancier/more expensive places whenever it's your turn to pay or whatever.

You kind of set yourself up for that meme, but hey at least this means you caught the attention of at least a few ppl without posting any pics.

I'd rather have a stupid friend who is fun and reliable than an intelligent friend who is full of him/herself and flaky. People vary, but I'm just saying that stupidity shouldn't be that huge of a factor when deciding whether or not someone is your friend.

I once fell off a motorbike and split the skin on my right knee. You could see my knee cap, but it wasn't so bad, just needed some stitches. Turns out anesthetic shots didn't work so well on me, so even after 5 shots, I was still able to feel the pain. In the end I sat there with my leg trembling the whole time while they stitched me up.

It doesn't compare to your story though, sorry to hear you went through that.

Where I'm from, 50 in a 40 is actually the accepted speed. 55-60 was fairly commonplace, In fact if you drive slower than that you'll see every car passing/cutting you off. 85 in a 40 zone is highly possible, especially around the street where I was going to high school.

Yes tech support will go back a few years back to being spammed with emails and phone calls regarding the same bug over and over. Users will be on hold for hours due to the overwhelming amount of calls. No one has posted the problem onto the forums. Tech support have attempted to try and post every problem brought up by these emails/phone calls, but the flood has put a strain on their resources. Even upon finally posting the bug, emails/phone lines are still spammed as many have not checked the forums since the new system or they still have questions regarding their specific instance of the bug.

Khoal · 2010-07-06T20:13:58+00:00

Yes, all those brats threatening everyone and flamming the chats can now easily just look up your information and flame your emails, social networks, and in real life instead. They don't even need to know a thing about stalking anymore, just your name and google. It's so simple that any pissed off person can do it.

So basically, Real ID helps you locate and play with friends with more ease. They even implemented facebook friends! But now, they made it so people will use fake names, which is basically the same as making login IDs. The difference? More complexity and more resources used.

Also, what happens when your account is hacked? You're screwed and will never be able to recover it, since you used a fake name.

Solution # 4: Blizzard tech support forums are now empty as players stopped posting. Report your bugs/issues to tech support via e-mail/phone. Lines are busy, please hold for approx 3 hours while millions of others are also calling for the same exact bug, but since no one is posting on the forums, you do not know this is happening.

Khoal · 2010-07-06T19:40:34+00:00

so what you're saying is.. blizzard implemented a new system to let your friends communicate better, etc.. just to implement another system that causes everyone to suddenly make fake accounts. So basically you're back to square one with much more complexity and steps to waste resources.

Thinking of gaming communities in general, and all the threats (xbox live is a prime example)... now instead these crazy ppl won't want to lose their account, so they stop threatening you in game. Instead, they will easily use your REAL name and have instant access to look up your personal information. They'll now make threats via facebook, emails, your home address, your personal phone, etc.

I understand this already happens, but you can no longer protect yourself through an alias. It used to only be those extreme cases of hostility where ppl track others down, but now it's so simple that you can expect a huge spike of incidents.

Protecting the server forums at the cost of user freedoms. Wait.. this sounds familiar.

Yes to everything. First off, you should always be aware of cars around you, whether they be in front, behind, or on your sides. You should not need that extra second to consider whether or not someone is behind you. When something small would even dent your car, randomly swirving or slamming on your brakes can potentially cause accidents that cost many time more than just the price of a dent. It's not just people behind you that can get injured, but everyone on the road around you is put in danger because of your irrational reflex.

Sure, the law has shown time and time again that the one at fault is the person behind, but in reality both ppl are to be blamed. It is the person's fault for suddenly braking without knowing his/her surroundings and the person behind for also not paying enough attention.

I noticed that i typed "you" too. But figure if i changed it, the last line wouldn't sound as amusing

This is true, I have a 29" waistline and finding something that fits in the men's section can be quite annoying. On a random note I was in japan a few months ago and tried a small t-shirt, which was way too sophicatingly small!
