I normally reserve the compliments for the second date, so really I didn't see it coming. And fuck off, if I can build a computer then I can make a girl cum

some of my best friends are female. what's wrong with having a female as a friend?

at worst, you can look at it as networking ++.

Yeah, but they're no good for poon.

MadMax · 12th November 2007, 21:03

um, cause they're FRIENDS? a mate's poon is like your sisters poon. or does your sister share her toys?

My father used to say that not playing to win is like sleeping with your sister. Sure she's a great piece of tail, with a blouse full of goodies, but... it's just illegal. Then you get into that whole inbred thing. Kids with no teeth who do nothing but play the banjo... eat apple sauce through a straw... pork farm animals.

Vista DVD burning.

It really is shit! I used it with a mate for the first time yesterday, but I had to follow my nose. There was no happy shiny CD person saying "Hai, click me to burn dvd" Instead you have to insert the DVD which then gets 'formatted' and from there you can drag and drop your files.

Can't imagine the average user would like it done like that

DrTiTus · 13th November 2007, 15:33

Fuck! I thought OS X was perfect... I just realised it is not.. at least Finder is not.

I just moved my Books folder into my Data folder, which already had a huge amount of Books in a folder, and when asked to replace or stop, I simply clicked replace, not really thinking it would literally REPLACE the folder and not merge the contents!

Bastard.

Now I have to try and recover them, or get them again

a T intersection here in palmy.

South << T >> North
at the bottom is east

It's all simple enough... hopefully i can describe it here:

If your travelling from north to south you have a stop sign.
South to north you travel straight through, just taking care to merge with those turning right (from east) into north.
From north to east you enter a two laned road where you can usually enter your own lane with those travelling from south to east entering (usually) their own lane.
Free turn from east to south, just taking care that those behind the stop sign from north have actually seen you.

The final one is the fun one: turning right from east into north. You're at a give way sign so you only give way to those turning right from south into east. Those at the stop sign wait for you, obviously. The idea here is to wait for a gap in the traffic heading from south to east and then go, then merge into a single lane with the south to north traffic. That's fine, so long as vehicles indicate what they're doing, and that your view isn't blocked by banked up traffic turning left from east to south waiting at another intersection just meters up the road. Then of course you need to check that someone at the stop sign doesn't just take off in front of you.

hope that makes sense

So you clicked "replace", assuming that it meant something other than "replace"?

To be honest that aspect of the interface bit me on the ass a couple of times too. I put it down to Windows's behaviour being retarded and us just having grown used to it.

when you're reading a book and coming up with your own conclusion about whats going to happen in the end, and you for some reason, decide to read the description on the back of the book which then confirms that your conclusion was correct.

self pwnage.

It's a cycle lane, dickheads, not a cycle on the right of the line separating the car part from the cycle part.

What I hate is when people drive over cycle lanes to get past queued up traffic, then have the gall to growl at you when you pull out from a side street to join said queued traffic and get in their way.

what gives you the right to litter? There's a little ashtray in every car to put your rubbish in. Or is it you don't like the smell of ciggie butts and are too lazy to empty your ashtray?
