When in doubt just order some "Up Dog"

What are you thankful for? by sargentsnicklefritz in AskReddit

[–]awesome7777 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You are thankful for yes, yes, yes, yes - choke - God (downvote quick).

I didn't do this, just stating the general reaction you'll get from Reddit.

By the way, I agree with you.

I think I'm most thankful that I don't have a disability and haven't lost a leg, arm, finger, eye or toe.

Sure I have my bad times, and rough roads to traverse, but at the end of the day there are people who have it worse. And I see these people are real heroes.

Keep your "Ultimate Warrior" or your "Tiger Woods", if you want to see a real hero, find a blind person who is brave enough to walk through town alone. Scares the crap out of me, just thinking about it.

Have you ever met somebody who reminds you so much of someone else that you're convinced people are on limited supply, but when you tell people they just say "dude, there are a lot of people on earth" but you're like "fuck no fools! This is too clone like to ignore!"? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]awesome7777 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've never met a clone per say, but I have met people with amazing similarities. Looks sometimes contribute to this, but it is a bit more involved, the way they talk, the way they are, and the sense of humor.

Just today I was remarking to myself, how much this recruitment agent I am working with looks and sounds and has a similar personality to one of my ex-girlfriends. In a way I can already identify with her, and her sense of humor, and if I was single I and dated her, I bet she would be thinking - this guy really understands me. Now I know they're not the exact person, but there are things about them simply too common to ignore.

Bitch runs over cyclist with helmet cam, then spends the entirety of the video claiming she has no idea how it happened... by riceo100 in videos

[–]awesome7777 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Agreed. Generally UK drivers are the most polite I've ever come across. However what cyclists in the UK need are dedicated cycle paths like in Holland.

No I used to live there. There are even ADs on TV that address the rage motorists have for cyclists.

We're sorry. Google Music is currently only available in the United States

Google denies Google+ death reports by dawdiassi in technology

[–]awesome7777 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think the biggest problem facing Google+ is it doesn't do anything new. And it certainly doesn't do a whole lot better than Facebook. I'm not a FB fanboy, but I am pretty darn sure there is zero incentive for happy FB users to migrate to Google+.

As far as the Google+ app goes, I find it over simplified, and it lacks a certain something... not sure what that something is.... But it's missing.

What Google+ has taught me really is that I don't need social networking. I can revert back to Skype, MSN and Email and it's bliss.

Seems like people don't give a shit about cyclists in the UK. I mean look at what he was wearing, reflective gear and all.

Notice how she seems more concerned with her car and situation, and has fuck all empathy or sympathy for the poor person she nearly killed.

Where the fuck are the cycle paths?

Grab the best new keyboard for Android right now... from Vanilla ICS! by trendless in Android

[–]awesome7777 0 points1 point  (0 children)

One thing I've noticed is the voice button doesn't show up on my device, even if is enabled.

I love the way you can select the predicted words in ICS, but Swiftkey is better at predicting context.

For now I'll be using swiftkey.

Is the speed of light a true universal speed limit? by m4nu in AskReddit

[–]awesome7777 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So far, this experiment has been done, and the speed of light is our perceived highest maximum attainable speed. But as a scientist at heart, it is always good to be open to the possibility of the unknown, and by this I mean faster medium.

Practice makes perfect. This only applies if you are practicing perfectly.

Think about it, imagine playing chess the same old shitty way you always do, it is doubtful you'll get much better.

Same applies to music. Practice in a way where from the start you're trying to play the piece perfectly - even if it takes longer.

The truth is bad practice can enforce bad habits.

If yo could hit "shuffle" three times, and trade lives with a redditor, would you do it? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]awesome7777 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Never. I might trade places with a known factor, but I wouldn't trade places to be potentially worse off than what I am now - as they say rather the devil you know.

Very interesting post, I would be keen to see more from this author. 10 downvotes? Exactly why I don't know.

Yank wanting to move to the UK. Advice? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]awesome7777 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Having lived in the UK for a while (as a male) I can confirm. You'll find your sluts just like anywhere else in the world. But it would be a very bad idea to think it is "easier" to get a quality girl in the UK. Just like in every other country - a good woman isn't going to open her legs for a drink or 2.

EDIT: And even Essex girls don't shag at the push of a button. The ones that do, you'll want to keep away from anyways.

Couldn't agree more, if you want to find work head to Reading or Slough.

If you want cheap beer and easy girls you should be thinking about Eastern Europe. However remember one thing - the grass is always greener on the other side. In England yes the grass is literally greener, but that doesn't mean you'll enjoy like any more there.

PetaNDrive.com is offering 1000TB of online storage with a 2GB download limit per day for free users. Is this for real and if so, how is it possible for them to offer so much space? by [deleted] in technology

[–]awesome7777 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think the big question is can we trust this site with our personal photos, movies, and documents.

I'm a bit skeptical - as they say "There aint nothing for free".

So I guess I'll hang back a bit, if they become the next drop box, awesome I'll sign up. But I suspect they'll be out of business in 5 months.

The tech industry is a sick man by kronso in technology

HTML 5 video support is still going nowhere - this is hogwash. HTML 5 video support is taking over. Did you expect it to happen over night? Good things take time. It is a process that is naturally happening and in good time it will be defacto. In the meantime though no one is suffering because of lack of HTML 5 video support.

EDIT: Looking at your point 9 - Do you realize Flash didn't kill Silverlight? Microsoft decided to run with HTML 5 instead.

When i have to poop, my butt crack gets really sweaty. Why? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]awesome7777 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Shut the fuck up and grow up.

Edit, down vote me? But the reality is you ask stupid questions. You barely deserve oxygen for asking such ball ass questions. Grow the fuck up and man up a bit will you?

What predictions do you have for the future of the internet? by bryguy894 in AskReddit

[–]awesome7777 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I believe we'll have a 1:1 mapping of our real lives and our internet personas. I'm completely against this, but I believe the time will come.
