Yippee-IA, Motherf***ers! IRRATIONALLY ANGRY PT. 2: Irrationally Angrier

Muffins are super easy to make in a bowl without a bread machine -- you don't have to knead them or anything. It's just a batter, slightly more floury/less wet than a cake batter.

these things?
http://www.bbc.co.uk/food/recipes/english_muffins_56640

we get these fancy reams of paper at work that are shrinkwrapped. the first page of the ream has a non-removable sticker on it with the paper type etc. so the first page is useless for printing. it's such a ridiculous waste i hate it.

also we get large rolls of paper to use on our plotter printer. the rolls are sealed with adhesive tape...that tears the paper underneath when you remove it. surely, SURELY you would have half a brain to figure out that maybe you should seal it with removable tape so that the paper is not marked by your stupid non-removable tape.

kill smash murder

xp - oh sorry!
i should have known better

People who pipe up to answer support form questions like this:

Can this TV be controlled with PlayStation 3 Remote Control? 5 days ago
Sorry, I have no idea about that.

does it stream amazon instant video 3 days ago
Sorry, we haven't tried that. But it is the best tv in our house.

Can I use my amazon prime account to watch videos on this tv, without another devise? 6 days ago
As far as I know you can. I do not use that service so I am not 100% certain.

It's strange to think that there are people out there who look at support form boards the same way the rest of us look at facebook, ilx, templeowlsbasketball.edu, etc.

As bad or worse, people who answer, "That's not possible." E.g.

Asker: How do I disable the Insert key on my keyboard?
Answerer: I don't think you can do that.
(others offer instructions for remapping keyboards)
Answerer: I never heard of doing that. I don't see how that could actually work.
Asker: Thanks, that worked!
Answerer: That wasn't a good idea. You probably just ruined your computer. it's impossible THEY'RE ALL GONNA LAUGH AT YOUa;dklfja;sd

ASKER; Is there an easy way I can search for apps on my iPhone by typing in the name?
ANSWERER: First of all, this forum is for unmodified iPhones still serviceable by Apple, not "jailbroken" ones...

People getting excited about thundersnow.

"Two tortilla burrito" should be a phrase for something needlessly complicated. "How's the security line at the airport?" "Ugh, they make you go through this stupid maze even though no one's in line. It's such a two-tortilla burrito."

I like that

Man, this American bicameral legislative system is a real two-tortilla burrito

lol

as useless as tits on a bull a two tortilla burrito

I like to think of the two-tortilla burrito as making the best of what you have.

what we think of the two-tortilla burrito says much more about us than the two-tortilla burrito

the two tortilla burrito in you is the reality in you

I am two-tortilla burrito!

god i could really go for two burritos

Books that are told in first-person viewpoint and recount long dreams full of dialogue quoted verbatim. Dreams do not work like that. And they're boring to hear/read about.

I have a facebook friend who posts his dreams all the time -- he's a good writer and they're very imaginative and poetic dreams and they're STILL boring as fuck to read about. I've only known one person ever whose dreams were interesting to hear.

And we all get free parking on his birthday every January.

lol

carl agatha is the only person I've know who can recount dreams in an interesting way. I can't figure out her trick. Probably she's a witch.

I'm definitely a witch.

Also thank you.

Here's one: I had a dream I was changing a baby (not Ivy, thank god) and instead of legs, it had catfish whiskers.

What's your trick? Let's workshop my dreams.

Xp I hate you

It was really hard to get a diaper to stay on!

Maybe she tells the interesting dreams to you only.

The Xfinity One commercial featuring Abrams Spock and Abrams Chekov talking about how they must be in the future because of this awesome cable OS makes me fly into screaming rages

Maybe she tells the interesting dreams to you only.

Maybe I'm more interesting than you give me credit for!

oooooo

We've got a drop-down menu list of photographers on one of our internal sites. This is what I see when I'm trying to search for an item by that category:

Fred Allen
Jim Baker
Arnold Coolidge
Kim Davis
Kevin Effington
Zack Farner
Nell Garland
Phyllis Hathaway

THAT IS NOT A GOOD REPRESENTATION OF ALPHABETICAL ORDER.

this is a shit article

shit

you really think so? I totally get where he is coming from. The brand of "reading" endorsed by Dead Poets Society seems ready-made for feel-goody high-concept advertisements.

did someone think high school english as portrayed in a movie was the same as grad school critical theory? i bet they feel dumb now

totally, i just feel like

- he didn't need 3500 words to make his sort of obvious point about a 20 year old movie
- putting 'appreciation' in opposition to close reading is fucking nonsense

"everyone says english departments overanalyze things well thats stupid you have to analyze things instead of just having feelings about them"

its a spirited defense of bloodlessness

- putting 'appreciation' in opposition to close reading is fucking nonsense

^^^ a million times this

And it's what I think when people get het up about analyzing jokes. For me, picking apart a joke doesn't "kill it," it gives it a second life.

Otherwise entertaining podcasts where they can't be bothered to edit out the boring 20 mins at the start where set up and complain about Skype glitches, etc etc

How Windows 7 likes to display every new folder window with the following 'details':

#
Title
Contributing Artists
Album

So instead of just me clicking a button or two so I can see file size and date, I have to unclick all these mp3-centric options and then click all the stuff 'on'. Thanks, MS.

Also, I have received multiple used printers that 100% work in other versions of Windows but REFUSE to do so in Windows 7. Ease of use w peripherals should be the fucking FOUNDATION of your OS. Otherwise this is just DOS in drag.

the literary equivalent of fandom

god forbid people would be fans of literature

Huge 2500 page print job, diligently replenish paper as I go so printer doesn't stop .... 10 sheets shy of finishing it's completely out of paper RAGH FUCK YOU

also the printer trays hold -just shy- of a ream

hate that so much

ok that is ludicrous
also i am so tired right now that i had to type ludacris next to that to see if i spelled ludicrous right, to make sure a red underline would appear if i didn't

sad commentary on ludacris' fortunes

people who are not a) e.e. cummings and b) i GUESS bell hooks but who c) foist their special snowflake requirement of only printing their name in lowercase on everyone who surrounds them

uncapitalization of a person's name actually has the opposite effect of what it purports to be for
