I went to the shop at lunch time and got a load of crap about how they've not finished preparing it yet. A whole 24 hours to install XP? I've done it myself before and it hasn't taken more than a few!
The point of spending loads of cash on tech that isn't really needed is to make myself feel good. I'm not getting that feeling right now and if it isn't ready in an hour I'm taking my business else where. The B*STARDS!

Rant over.

I honestly hope that business goes into the red because at the least they should be able to install XP and have it ready for the customer to pick it up the next day. I know at least I can install XP and still get it working in a matter of hours despite having troubles finding drivers for old hardware.

That's another thing I hate. IT Tech's who don't know how to troubleshoot and keep on doing the same thing expecting different results! Also got to add in some IT Tech's who throw a anger fit when they can't fix something. How about you take a minute away from the machine and think what you've done and what you have not done? Maybe if you used a thing called the brain you could figure it out!?

People that thing everything is racist, or derogatory in some manner. Also people that go claiming that everything has "sex" written on it, just hidden. (Subliminal messages) I mean, really? Cant people accept life is normal and that there are going to be some random spoofs on soda cans, or that words' value and meaning depends of context?

This.

Its annoying on the internet, but I actually overheard one of those "idiots I work with" arguing about faces in the smoke of fire. One of them was holding it as proof god exists.

What. The. 🤬?

I just stood 2 registers down shaking my head. So glad Im leaving this job soon.

To simply put it, a flame war is ongoing somewhere, and my current faction leader is betraying us, leave the war on our own.
One member of my faction simply gets mad, and launched an attack on him, but the leader declares war on his own faction.

(To any of you that know the reference, peace.)
 
Thanks Mr. CoolFiat? Anyways, having to be so busy in the last 2 weeks of school before 3 exams is driving me mad. English, math and science.
 
Typos you can't correct. My PSN is meant to be Skython11 but I stuffed it up and it says Sython11 :mad: And I can't even change it. DAMN YOU!!!!!

Sucks to be you then. :P

Time grinds my gears, especially when it travels at a rate of OVER 9000 mph. I need more time to complete the next chapter of my fanfic before school starts tomorrow...

Thing is I'm thinking I might come to prefer it.

You MUST FIND time to do your fan fic, I WANT MOOOOAAAAARRR!!!!!!! :)
 
University. Not actually university, more of a pre-university stage. I have three exams in one week, and I haven't studied for any of them. One of them is math as well, and I need to get an 8/10 to have a chance of passing the subject.
 
Ah. I have 3 exams that start next week :scared:. I'm passing all of the classes (English, Math, and Science) but need to ace the exams to get 80 percent in each classes. I really want to get 80 percent in Math to show that I can do it. I had a mark of 55 percent in March. So to say I'm resilient is a understatement. Quadratics and trigonometry are difficult for me, all other math I have learned is a piece of cake. To increase my mark by 25 percent would be incredible. But this is stressing me out.
 
People who answer a question like: "Would you rather _______ with X or Y?" with an answer like "Neither I would _____ with Z1!"
That's not what I 🤬 asked!



I have absolutely no idea why this pisses me off so much.
 
Trigonometry. I know the length of the base of the triangle and all 3 angles but can't figure out the height of the triangle. The base is 500km, The angles joining the base are as follows: angle A is on the left side and is 80 degrees. angle b is on the right side and is 75 degrees. These two angles end up joining at point c above the base. The angle from point c to angle a is 10 degrees and the point c to angle b is 15 degrees. Help please? If someone could pm me and help I would greatly appreciate it.
 
Suggestion to VANDENEL, get a Zeus book. It's a small book that I discovered while studying engineering. Basically it charts all the possible outcomes from a trig equation and also has the back calculated numbers. So if you have the lengths of 2 sides of a triangle and one corner angle, you can look down the chart with the info you have and it will give you the third length and the other angles. It's really helpful and removes the need for lengthy mathematics.
 
The football(Soccer) transfer window, or silly season as its well known as.

Please hurry up August 31! I want to see Modric in a Spurs shirt for atleast another season.
 
Not too annoying though but people on YouTube flame me for no reason at all. They kept cursing be just because of using an overused joke without knowing. *sigh*

Then again, 90% of youtube people are wackos, they can moan and complain about anything
 
On you tube comments, I hate the people who leave comments saying Welcome to **football club** for example "Welcome to Liverpool" On montages of players that they have only been linked with.

It seems Liverpool fans who do this the most. WHY!

What grinds my gears? .......... The Funny Pictures thread being locked because some people are acting like plums on their and posting crap that is unnecessary/ unrelated.
 
i hate it when people judge me on a first impression... im a completely different person underneath. If i wasnt so shy then i wouldnt be hiding under this veneer :/
Also I hate it when it's my birthday (yesterday) and my 'friends' dont wish me happy birthday... even on fb.. I make a point of saying happy birthday to ALL of my friends, be it on facebook, in person, by text etc.. then it comes round to my turn and only 10 people say happy birthday...
 
What grinds my gears ALL THROUGHOUT MY LIFE? GOT NO 🤬 TIME FOR MY OWN SELF TO ENJOY LIFE AND YOUTH. HOMEWORKS, HOMEWORKS, HOMEWORKS.

I hate it when I SHOULD live life like a nerd. It ain't cool at all. I'm smart but I DON'T WANT TO BE 🤬 GEEKY.

Hmm, is this like the 6th time you've complained about homework?

Anyways, what grinds my gears? Mosquitoes. Also my neighbors who always have their, "Midnight Chats", until 4 AM, playing their rap extremely loud, I can barely sleep.
 
Old people driving and women driving! They always think their right even after trying to bump you out a road :lol:!
