Ya know that new PoS cleaning Item on TV commercials?

Yeah… I luve it how the dude’s accent starts out as a profound australian accent, slowly evloves into an American Midwest accent and then morphs into a less profound australian accent.

Behold how they get yuppies to buy things.

“OMG! He has an Indistinct European Accent! I Must Charge $19.95 Plus $6.95 S&H to my Discover/Visa/MasterCard/Diners Club Card NOW! The Indistinct European Accent means that it’s not crap!”

Ever have one of those days where you can’t find what you’re looking for on a cell phone coverage map of Ukraine?

I have. I can’t find Chernobyl. It’s somewhere north of Kiev (КИЕВ). I need it for my english paper.

FYI, You’re looking for “ЧОРНОБУЛЬ” or “ПРИПЯТ”.

Hast goth cast his wrath upon me?

Filed under: Rants, Tech — jimX @ 11:56 pm

After finding the FIRST DRAFT of my paper on my USB thumb drive, I began working on it. I got pretty far. I saved it and went to go eat dinner. I came back and OpenOffice had closed. I re-opened the file. Blank. “Shit.”

I think I’ll dig out my grandma’s typewriter to do this if I have another problem.

Update: In my anger at technology, OpenOffice.org, Hard Drives, Bill Gates, keybords and laser printers, I remembered that I had added 1 page of blank to the document for the cover page.

Silly procrastinator! blind anger at technology is for emo kids and 2nd Grade flunk-ees!

Oops… sorry 2nd Grade flunk-ees… I really shouldn’t have grouped you with emo kids.
