Just played NFS the run what a piece of fecal matter, its somehow WORSE than undercover, and this just angers me that the Porsche name hasn't been in a good game since 2002 (I haven't played FM3 so I don't know how that game turned out) I used to blame only EA, but now, I look towards Porsche itself because it keeps putting its trust into a company that crams riced out BMW's, and slang that sounds like it derived from a bunch of mentally challenged gang bangers with a speech impediment down your throat.
 
Fire fox 8.0.1? Anyone else's gears being ground by this? It's twice as slow as the previous version and doesn't seem to have an advantages. Me is thinking of using my Opera browser from now on. :grumpy:
 
Today it was pouring and I was goin down the road and this guy in an F-150 decides to pass me which is fine, but then he cuts me off RIGHT IN FRONT OF A HUGE PUDDLE, giving me absolutley no chance for me to react and get in the other lane, then he decides to make a right turn right after the puddle. Thank god for Rain-X, I eventually heard a bunch of people's stories of idiotic inconsiderate drivers throughout the day, it's amazing what a rainstorm can do to people

What's so bad about that?

Because I never seem to have time to read or relax, I'm always on here. I enjoy it here, it's just sometimes I wish I didn't have the urge to check every 5 minutes.
 
Matty is right. It doesn't grind me gears but does consume a lot of my time. For instance, I should have showered and gone out for food an hour or more ago. As it is I'm still on the sofa in my under-crackers smoking and reading the threads.

Oh 🤬!!!! I just got a text and it scared the life out of me. I had no idea my phone was next to me.

I get that. Sometimes the TV is on but I'm not even paying attention to it, and suddenly the antiques roadshow sneaks up on me. I have to suddenly change channel to Dave.

What grinds my gears today is my writers block. I tried to pen my thoughts today, but nothing comes to my mind >.<

I got the newest one and it freezes like non stop. It did that a couple versions ago than was alright and now it's back at it. Nothing more annoying.
 
To the other guy: what's wrong with The Run? From what I've seen it should be similar to Hot Pursuit, which is probably my favorite PS3 game at the moment.

Am I actually lucky that I didn't pre-order it like I was considering?
 
God, someone nearly caused a collision with my father's car when I was driving it! I am fully insured on it and everything and this driver wasn't quite paying attention coming towards me and stepped onto the damp part of the road and basically fish-tailed towards my car.

I know why he did it and the speed he was going at (going home from the factory = fast speed + country road = high blood pressure time!) wasn't acceptable for a 30mph limit at that time.

He was very lucky that there wasn't another car behind me or he would have basically ruined his and someone else's day in a big way.

TL;DR: Gear grinders = People not driving safety and being aware of different grip levels on the road.
 
All of the people I know from school is having fun with their relatives and friends and such while I'm home basically alone (my sis is asleep) :grumpy: No one really bothers with me anyways.
 
Take the mick out of someone instead. Or just call up a dude/girl/homey/whatever and just jabber about random stuff.

Or go and walk around somewhere. Or drive (Don't think you're old enough for that?). Take a bus somewhere. Go to the shopping centre. Do something random. Something constructive (don't play games).

Enough ideas for you?
 
^^

I have no friends, so..

And I already did some of those. Where I live there isn't much that interest me.
 
The word 'extraordinary'.

Basically, it's the words 'extra' and 'ordinary'... which to me means really ordinary, as in not very good.

So the next time someone gives you a 'compliment' by using that word... go ahead and punch them in the ear.

:lol: Now THAT is a rant.

I feel the same way, (Porsche's are good in FM3 though).

But EA has completely done the NFS series wrong, and its sickening.

Most Wanted was the last good NFS game.
 
My post earlier in the day hasn't worked. My PPD has gone above 10. *sigh* I guess I'll stop fighting the addiction and settle with the fact I am actually quite sad.
