Anne rice got it right
When people mispronounce my online name,even worse if done on purpose and mockingly!
It wasn't until Wipeout HD that I realized it was pronounced Feisar - I called it Fee-isar for years upon years.
I used to pronounce Qirex as Qui-rex, thanks again voice in HD
Never underestimate the stupidity of humans. :dizzy
Why does Qurex and Feisar don't sound the way they are spelled?
That's the real question. :?:
What really grinds my gears are people who pull out on police cars who are flashing their sirens, resulting in the police car hitting their car and veering off onto the pavement and nearly hitting me. True story...
one damn misprint in the directions to the st christopher hotel motel
when i was following a route by train to the place...
Lumi're station is not spelled that way!
Laumire!
you D---S!!
im at the right spot.. now...
@IH8YOU & oneAVGNfan
Qirex sounds exactly like it's spelled, there was never any "u" :P
FEISAR is a dialect/accent issue... I always pronounced it "fey-szar" just because I'm used to the "ei" making that "ey" sound instead of the long "I" sound.
Had my morning cup of coffee just now... WAY TOO THIN/LIGHT, so that really grinds my gears. I was being conservative because i'm running low, but drinking crappy coffee is worse than not having any at all lol
Who left "ace-flo is a terrorist" and "ace-flo sells drugs" as tags in the general conversation thread? My fukking gears are grinded - if you got something to say, don't be a coward about it and post snide remarks in the form of tags - come paste that schit on my Visitor Messages so I know who to deal with. OK?
FFS
If it helps, I put that you were my adopted brother. :g
hahaha terrorist? what?
I believe KIGO did those, although of course I can't prove it. I have some vague memory of him doing it, and it looks like his "style". :rolleyes:
Well, I've asked Rob tom remove them anyway :) no biggie... Just that, being a Muslim by faith, and an Indian by race, someone might actually take that seriously you know? i can't be living in fear when I'm just some guy who enjoys playing online with you guys. And dammit, it wasnt funny in the least... :(
They do; you're just not reading them right. And there's no U in Qirex.Quote:

Youtube's new site layout. holy damn, infuriating.
oyster cards not getting read at rush hour :bomb
What were they thinking with that new YouTube text format? When I watch the vids, all i want is that they are in high picture quality, NOT IN SCRAMBLED TEXT THAT'S SUPPOSED TO BE REPRESENTING THE VIDEO IMAGE!!!!! Also, how is it cheaper?!
^ It's just an extra option for april fools...
I have two accounts on youtube, one has rather low views and the other is my oblivion account with near 3 mill views. I keep getting messages from people asking me questions that are already answered in the video description... or that can be answered with 5 seconds spent on google.
Also, people keep sending PMs about why their computers don't work just because they see mine working in the videos. ARRGHHH. And most of the time they don't even bother specify a single thing despite the PM being a 600 word wall of text. It all summarizes to "IT DUN WORK LOL".
It's like having your car break down and then proceeding to flag any random car down by going with the logic: "HEY! His car is working... so he must obviously know what's broken in mine!!!" No mate, call a mechanic or your recovery service. :bomb
Ok, just had to rant about that after seeing another 10 PMs this morning. :|
....When you can't play Tron 2.0 because your laptop's touchpad makes you look up into the "sky" getting you derezzed: All because it thought you wanted to use it eith your thumb because of where the pad is on the laptop. :bomb
Speaking of Tron, is anyone else disappointed with the remake? From the trailer, it looks like a cell-phone commercial, or maybe Audiosurf. It has none of the style or character of the original.
I am actually, Tron (original) was fair crap as well, given that 2.0 looks infinitely better than it, although it was the 80's, there wasn't much to go by.
Wouldn't really say that Tron being a disappointment would be grinding my gears, :g but I know what you mean - if you're gonna make a remake of an old classic (one that wasn't particularly good anyway :+ Tron) atleast try to improve on it convincingly enough to appeal to more than just die hard fans of the movie... Take Batman, the one with Jack Nicholson and Michael Keaton, crap - comical - laughable... take Batman of today, Now he the man...
...having said that, Jack Nocholson and Michel Keaton are miles better than George Clooney and Arnold Shwarznegger - mehness all around!
I gotta get off this thread, if I'm not careful, I probably will end up grinding my own gears, gah :lol
first thing that grinds my gears. The most annoying trophy in history. Bling brigade.
Second. My Crap isp. Sky broadband in my area is beyond shocking. 8mb they tell me.. Yea right!
3rd. Work calling me in at the worst possible time.
After organising an international bling meet with people from all over the world. Sending about 100 messages and making lots of friends and then being called away at the last minute... That really grinds my gears but then even worse. Getting my housemate to stay in on a friday night to help for the bling meet and race online on my profile to then only get 0.15mps at the agreed meet time..... Grrrrr im seething right now as im writing this from my desk in work. If anyone can help me with bling. Check the bling volunteers thread
Ah, Bear Buddy! Nevermind, schitt happens - usually in threes so don't feel bad. Karma will come round and lick your face with Air, and that'll feel nice - trust me. I'm the AirLicker :lol But I wont be licking no faces, just massaging egos.
Here's my effort - Avalon is coming up, plenty of Zoners with the silver skins there mate. Also - I'm host, so will notify all in my room to change to bling skins if you still need the trophy by then. But this is a last resort ok?
We'll do another Bling run on Sunday and I'll call out some favours so we can make this happen.
Oil those gears now bud, they'll run smoother ;)
BB trophy is a bitch to get i agree. Its up there with Zico.
Google's awful YouTube redesign. They basically removed loads and loads of features in the name of simplicity - because simplicity is obviously an end in its own right and definitely not a way to increase usability.
Also, phone-based account verification.
I'm with you on the Youtube thing. They completely nerfed groups ages ago too - very annoying.
That reminds me of my other Youtube gripe that I experienced just today:
When every video I upload to Youtube fails about 5 times before it finally decides to work just once. Every damn time!:bomb
-not knowing the name of the song you want to listen to
Hearing a song that you really like and not knowing what the heck it's called
...having a whole web-hosting environment dumped on me, when I clearly hava pointed out that I'm done admining webservices and only do telecom stuff.
I narrowly avoided a (email) postmaster gig, so I guess it wasn't all bad. Besides, maybe we can come up with some fun things to do with all those webservers... :D
There are apps on mobile phones that allow you to record a proportion of the song then you'll receive a message of what the song is. Ive got it on my old shitty phone, does come in handy once in a while.Quote:

I can highly recommend getting a foam pillow. The foam is temperature sensitive and moulds itself round your head and neck, providing support where it's needed. It literally saved my nights since a few years ago. it is a bit pricey, but IMHO well worth it.
PM me if you want product details - it's available in Finland too!
...When somebody, somehow, finds out about my foot fetish and terrorizes me about it. :/
Christ, I can't believe I had the nerve to write that.
Use Shazam. You can get it a an app on iPhone or you can call 2580 on any phone (in the UK). It'll 'listen' to the song for a while then it'll send you a txt with the title/artist.Quote:

I think you may be able to do it for free using other similar services or companies or t'internet, haven't checked it out though.
:)
When you hear the word "GRIND" then get shot to **** with a Troika.
Getting an ear infection where you become pretty much deaf in one ear. It's incredibly painful and I'm unable to move my jaw without a sudden sharp pain in my ear. Lying down is impossible no matter what position and as a result I'm losing sleep.
Swallowing the anti-biotic pills is fairly painful but the worst thing is... the ear spray SMELLS. It smells like a moldy packet of smokey bacon. I HATE SMOKEY BACON. ARRGH.
