Re: Taboo Topics (Heavily moderated)

I mean like the whole purpose of birth control is to prevent unwanted pregnancies, which would reduce the number of people who wanted abortions. And most of the people who are anti birth control are also pro-life. How does that make sense? Sections of the Catholic church in particular are against a...

Re: Things that Mildly Annoy You

I'm paid to rip a 80 years old millionnaire's 700+ movies so we can put them in a multimedia server he can access from anywhere and I have to convert them all to NTSC for the server software to work properly but half of the cases don't mention their region anywhere so I have to convert them just in ...

It's the ring that makes the whole thing recognizable, though I got it mixed up, it should be on the one above it.

So for this class I hate with the idiot teacher, we had to do a simple Android application to dispatch firefighters and fire trucks. Here's the icon I whipped up at the last minute, just in time for the presentation.

First snow here too. I'm pretty sure it'll melt though.

Re: All topics unimportant enough to not create a thread for

My favorite band is coming to Montreal in two weeks and I'd like to go see them but -It's in Montreal*. -I don't have friends and I don't want to go alone. I could ask my sister but -I don't know if she's into Ukrainian nu-folk. -It starts at midnight and we are both boring people who go to bed earl...

Re: What makes you pop flyin'?

I was having problems with my laptop (the fan was always at 100% because the GPU was also always at 100% because I was using the free driver). After a while I gave up and installed the proprietary driver, which solved the fan problem but caused all sorts of freezes and crashes and visual glitches an...

Re: What makes you pop flyin'?

Last week I finally sent an email to my mother to ask if she still hated me as much and she replied she wanted to see me. We talked for two hours today and it was only contextually awkward. It turns out those last four years were all just a misunderstanding. http://i.imgur.com/3uzQHHa.jpg But seriou...

Re: All topics unimportant enough to not create a thread for

On another note, most of the Sesame Street videos have a lot of thumbs down, or at least half of it thumbs down. :psyduck: I don't understand. I should just learn to never scroll down anymore. If you use an ad blocker, you can add a custom rule to tell it to block the comments and whatnot. Yo, folk...

Re: Things that piss you off

I tried changing a single parameter and then my system permanently destroyed the skin I've been working on for six months. I deleted my backups minutes before it happened and the only online snapshot I had is so old I might as well just start over.

Re: All topics unimportant enough to not create a thread for

A student was talking about the essay he's writing about death penalty for his philosophy class and Teacher McDoucheHole "jokingly" said we should inject criminals with oestrogen to make them less aggressive. 1- What the fuck. 2- As an IT "teacher", have you not heard of Alan Turing? 3- What the fuc...

Re: Things that piss you off

It'd be nice if putting someone in your blacklist made it so their posts don't mark a thread as unread.
But yeah those puns and forced memes are bottom of the barrel non-humor.

It's happening less and less frequently but back when I first got my car I'd often panic while driving because I couldn't remember where my car keys were.
