My Roccat Kone XTD doesn't do jackshit anymore. Only thing it does is light up the LEDs when holding down the Easyshift+ button. Now I have to use some bargainbin 3 year old ''''''''''gaming'''''''''' mouse which is so accurate that trying to draw a straight line makes the cursor jump all over the place. Plus, I miss my XTD macros like pausing and playing music by just holding down the Easyshift and clicking my mousewheel :(
For those who play Magic: the Gathering: Playing a draft, you get to keep what you draft. Literally everybody else is pulling Fetch/Ugins/Monastery Mentors out of their boosters and the best I get is Duneblast. Guy next to me had [B]three[/B] Fetch in 6 boosters. :( That Duneblast did win me a game while their Fetch did fuck all, so moral victory for me I suppose. :v:

Steam being a trivial bitch about downloading games while playing something else I even just set it one download to the top of the queue as I started a game and it still made no progress by the time I was done, and I know for a fact I was neither playing online nor did I lose my connection
Some parts of the forum makes me want to bash my head on a table sometimes(figuratively anyway). It would really hurt otherwise.

Maybe I just don't understand how it works, but UPS has my package at a facility in Harrisburg, PA, which is literally an hour away from where I live. They could get me it now, but it's scheduled to be delivered on Monday instead because fuck me right?

Keyboard clatter noises drive me up the wall. I love and hate the weekends but chilling is really impossible when you hear someone next door HAMMERING THE FUCKING KEYBOARD. It REALLY IRRITATES ME. Me: "Sorry could you quieten down the noise a little bit?" Brother: "No shut up stop having a go at me all my fucking life I'm going to kill myself" All I said was quieten it down. He has Aspergers but its obviously himself being selfish. Has a go at me more often, I can't take it and neither does mom and dad. He has some obsession if everything is either off properly (literally pats the tap to make sure its properly turned off) or worries about the tiniest of tiny things which is hardly something an average person worries about. He also swears more than I do, says "fuck" or "shit" very VERY often. And he says he is always stressed. I don't mean to be an idiot but I'm very VERY stressed and I don't let it out via anger or tantrums, fuckwit. Hell, he even hammers his head when he gets mad and threatens he'd make himself sick if mom and dad don't do something for him that involves spending about £400 a year of CDs and concert tickets. Ridiculous, having a brother who is 5 years older and has the maturity of a 6 year old.
I don't rememeber anything about yesterday and I have a nasty bruise on my back I hope I didn't wrestle with my friends
Sounds like a hell of a party
I wish Twitter would add categories and give me the ability to put people I follow into it.

I'll ask him about looking at a new keyboard. His current one is 7+ years old and he had it since he had his old Gigabyte PC replaced with a Fujitsu Esprimo, and now a custom PC.

I know someone that got no therapy and is on no meds, and acts out but I'm on meds and have gone to therapy my whole life and I can pass for normal.
[QUOTE=TheFilmSlacker;47232232]I guess liking Hotline Miami makes me a sadist lol[/QUOTE] Mind sharing the context? Sounds like an amusing story.
[QUOTE=TheFilmSlacker;47232232]I guess liking Hotline Miami makes me a sadist lol[/QUOTE] Well to be fair the game is sadistic as fuck You can drill through a guy's skull while he's alive, if that ain't sadism I don't know what is :v:
Been sitting here arguing for over an hour about setting the internet up. The line is actually up, because we are [I][B]PAYING MONEY FOR IT[/B][/I], but then it won't work because we haven't activated it. She won't give me the newest login info because [B][I]"ATT and Motorola are frauds and are having concerted efforts against white people and Christians and germans and blah blah the communication lines and bawk bawk blah blah it's not a joking matter and they stole my id and my communications when i was a kid."[/I][/B] Also, she deleted both of the voice mails from a few months ago about activating the service. Then this whole time I'm trying to go to the att website to find out how to call them or something she won't shut the fuck up about how the website is redirecting us to mexico and the ukraine. I'm so fucking done with this shit. Going to my boyfriends because I need to get the fuck out of my house before I smack that bitch. I'm getting really close to just slipping her some pills.
I really wish we'd call MOBA something else, like Action Real Time Strategy or Competitive Action RPG. Multiplayer Online Battle Arena can mean anything, not to mention the name itself a mess of words.

My computer locked up while playing Skyrim cuz Windows wanted to update.

Why does Steam even bother having a Busy status if literally no one fucking acknowledges it hhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
[QUOTE=NiandraLades;47234021]Why does Steam even bother having a Busy status if literally no one fucking acknowledges it hhhhhhhhhhhhhhh[/QUOTE] When I don't want to be bothered I just sign out.
[QUOTE=NiandraLades;47234021]Why does Steam even bother having a Busy status if literally no one fucking acknowledges it hhhhhhhhhhhhhhh[/QUOTE] I used to set my status to away or busy when playing a fullscreen non-steam game, but now I just go offline because everyone fucking messages me anyway
I wish Steam just had an invisible mode, because sometimes I want to hide but I also still want to message specific people, but offline mode won't let me.
If I get messages in Away/Busy I just ignore them until later. If they get pissy I get to tell them what "Busy" means.
Seatbelts. I know they're supposed to be safe and all and I use them anyways, but just about every seatbelt I use hardly fucking works because the inertia lock engages at the slightest budge or pull. Sometimes it takes me ten God damn minutes to put on a seatbelt because no matter how [I]gently[/I] I pull it out to buckle in, the FUCKING INERTIA LOCK KICKS IN AND WON'T LET ME PULL ANYMORE so I have to let it REEL BACK IN and try again. Even after I get it buckled in, I can't move. I cannot move or else the inertia lock kicks in and completely restricts my upper body movement entirely which is extremely uncomfortable and possibly isn't really safe either. I try to and eventually buckle up anyways because I don't like dying, but holy shit why are they so badly designed?
