Little things that irk you.. (no swearing please)

How much I brag about **** on forums.

I gotta stop doing that ****.

And me.

Is this 60hz related?

Eh? Is this because of the HRAP/monitor/Beatmania posts? I quite like those.

I thought speed's account had been haxxored, seeing as he's avatarless

My current irk: being unable to sleep thanks to endlessly reliving an earlier verbal exchange in my head that left me angry at the time, but which has made me absolutely seething the more I think about it.

My brain is now alternating between scolding myself for not telling the gooch where to go at the time (and perhaps smacking him in his weaselly face for good measure), and pondering whether to tell him tomorrow that if he ever says anything along those lines again, I'll 'ave him.

Obviously I'll just end up biting my tongue for the sake of my income. But I'll continue to play out alternative events in my head that result in fluttering confetti and roaring crowds as my workmates lift me on their shoulders and celebrate my toppling of the bumder.

None of this is conducive to a good night's kip, though. And I bet he's sleeping like a baby right now!

Sort of. Being insulted because I play some games that aren't mainstream pissed me off a bit.

Just generally I guess. Trying to inform mostly but I guess people see it as bragging.

Netflix mucking up the sound settings on movies i want to watch. I get the background music and nothing else. Grr.
Also, for telling me they have The Blob (1986) when it's actually The Blob (1956). Same for Knight Rider (2008) and original Knight Rider.

Fell victim to the age-old 'you should have read my mind' thing from the missus this morning. Walked right into it.

Spotify's total inability to update itself. Seems like there's a new version on a daily basis and I have to manually download and install it. Think I'll revert back to the old days of buying CDs and ripping them to itunes.

I thought I was the only person in the world who watched and liked The Blob remake. Had some proper gorey moments in there that scared the hell out of me when I was little!

Speedlolita - don't care about what others think dude, just play the games you enjoy. Big deal if they are not mainstream, most of the games this gen are crap to me when in comparison to older gens.

How about the adverts! It seems the frequency of them has increased like crazy recently for free users.

And new users needing to have a facebook account!
I'm on premium (thanks the the Three Mobile Network!) so no ads for me but also lots of my fave acts missing :-( Bring back vinyl. I'd love a record deck in the office.

Another irk:
I keep clicking on the Kinect thread because I just see the first three letters and think Kindle.

Come back from a week off to find they've increased the hours to nearly 47 a week.

It's really knocked the wind out of my sails and I'm really demotivated. It wasn't even said in a polite way.

Let them buy and play their hundred of bad games mate. They enjoy collecting and we enjoy minty pictures and full speed gaming. Over the years you realise its not worth trying to explain the benefits of 60hz/RGB as most don't care.

That's not very fair. How much were you on before?

I get this sometimes, although at the moment I have a "planning the (most likely written) exchange I am going to have in my head" due to an idiot tightfisted money grabbing ex landlord.

Please, if any of you are landlords, don't be dicks [to your tenants].
