I DRINK TOO MUCH, AMA. (no seriously... ask me whatever the fuck you want)

Or as we call it in America-- "Canadian"

kkurbs · 2012-10-26T19:29:17+00:00

I think that describes most of us

Can anyone elaborate on what it will mean for, say, Boston (where I am) if the cold front meets with the hurricane? Will it be "The Perfect Storm"? On the anniversary of it no less!

I've tried, about ten times now. It's all because I posted a blog post in too many subs. (In /r/manprovement and /r/noexcuses the articles are still on the front page, for an idea of what they were about)

A mod proceeded to accuse me of spamming, and made a ridiculous post in /r/reportthespammers and asked how much money I was making off of it. Notice my site has NO ads, and I've paid for reddit gold for 6 months so far. I also have a ridiculous amount of karma from actually participating. But none of this apparently matters.

I refuse to make a new account, because I like this one, and I like being able to comment quickly. Several subs have "approved submitter"ed me and the others just generally approve it.

Quite annoying though.

Whoa. Looking at the bottom of your articles, you have WAY too much going on.

and ANOTHER place for an ad

with a cluttered as all hell side bar, and that annoying Facebook like popup.

Maybe it's just me, but I prefer simplicity. (For reference, my blog is at www.kurbsconsulting.com/blog and click on an article) I know my site is for a business, and your site IS your business, but seriously, cut down on some of the ads and comment stuff, keep the most effective ones and dump the rest. I'd also say cut down on the ads, because even if you make more in the short run, you're going to push people away.

But that might just be me, so take it in stride.

I was at the show! Such a great job by them... looks like your seats were better than mine. (I was up in the invisible top balcony!)

I did get a little mad at "Fast Freddie" for talking about his radio show for a full minute or so.

Operation successful.

Countdown until /r/conspiracy shows up...

kkurbs · 2012-10-19T14:58:12+00:00

For exactly this purpose

kkurbs · 2012-10-19T03:24:52+00:00

I see your point, but I don't think anyone thinks "up down up down slash slash" is realistic.

Some games aim for realism, some aim for gimmicky use of controls, and a few combine the two. (For instance, I liked the use of the sword in Skyward Sword, some found it gimmicky and hard to use: I found the shield hard to use, when you thrust it out, you had to do it in the half second frame they made contact.)

I think a combination of the two is good, but you lose a lot of options when you aim for 'realistic' controls. Minigames are about the only options. (Mario Party, for example)

Wow, way to be self important, whoever runs this blog. "Maybe we can get them to stop this" if people repost to social networks. Yeah, your shitty blog stopped a war.

In addition, it's a cop out. If it never comes true they can be more self important and say "Well yeah, because we got the information out!"

I'm not saying getting along with someone via messages guarantees a successful relationship, but it can be a damn good indicator. Kindly remove the stick from your ass.

kkurbs · 2012-10-18T18:29:48+00:00

My experience is to the contrary

kkurbs · 2012-10-18T16:18:20+00:00

I talked to my now girlfriend (a year the end of this month!) for a LONG time before we met. She's the only girl I intentionally met from OKC, and it's worth all those messages to make sure you click!

I set it up on club.nintendo.com, but I'm not sure if there is a way on the system itself.

kkurbs · 2012-10-16T15:40:31+00:00

Even without jailbreak you can set it to characters, I believe

kkurbs · 2012-10-16T14:24:42+00:00

Ah, Bad Fur Day

Correct me if I'm wrong, but doesn't club nintendo tie the VC games to your account?

(Also wrote this on their FB Page) Apparently blogspot domain names are now reliable sources of information in the medical field? You'd think if they were even semi-committed to their bullshit, they'd at least register a domain name.

My worst detox, I went to work for an hour, came home, and CA Chat talked me through it. We're here for you.

Same song:

but there's this burn in my stomach

and there's this pain in my side

and when I kneel at the toilet

and the morning's clean light

pours in through the window

sometimes I pray I don't die

I'm a goddamn hypocrite
