    Because she is a drama/attention whore?

    (5) she has narcissistic tendencies, and is full of herself. Lacking any sort of self-awareness

    Chrome has just updated on my Android tablet, and the angle of the tab graphics has changed slightly. I could care less about that (possible, but difficult), what pisses me off is that a whole team of graphic designers at Google have just kept themselves from their rightful occupations in the salt mines by making a functionless aesthetic change...

    Because she can. If she plays the victim then it's much harder for you to get leverage. Welcome to the wonderful modern world we live in where if someone plays the victim card, uncommon sense and logic fly gracefully out of the window, and the general lemming population pick up the pitchforks and come out to play.

    Memo to purveyors of baked goods: if you use twist ties (and you should - those plastic clips suck), the rule is: righty-tighty, lefty-loosey. Don't make me experiment to figure out how to get the bag open.

    My new knee high socks don't seem to know how to stay up. Sigh.

    Gotta work those calf muscles. We could get you started on some of our new kelp based protein shakes, and Cindy here could get you signed up on our basic gym membership. Of course if you wanted to upgrade to a deluxe package, that includes a free session with Enrique to help you figure out your workout goals and gives you access to our free ergo-sonic kickboxing classes every Saturday.

    So you are suggesting that my new socks aren't fulfilling their duties in sockery because my leg muscles have wasted away from living on WF?
    Well...you might actually be onto something there, but you didn't hear it from me. :p

    Are those things elasticated, because if so, they look like they will definitely pull his pants down.

    I haven't worn knee-high socks since primary school. Ah, memories.

    Yeah, they're elastic, but they're hooked to the bottom of the shirt, not the boxers, so they help keep the shirt tucked in smoothly as well. Sometimes they slip, if they pop off the top, it's inconvenient, but if they pop off the bottom, well...

    My package from the US, which started out in LA, has now made its way through Ohio and is in Kentucky. On its way to Osaka. Either they're taking it the long way 'round, or there's a lot of endless messing about and shuffling being done in North America before it takes wing over the Pacific.

    They just want your package on the scenic route. :)

    If it's from Amazon and you're not a Prime member, they ship everything by mule train.

    Fuck google and fuck apple. That is all. I'm going to bed! :mad:

    ETA: And fuck Ireland too. Nothing can be delivered here, and we don't get services for useful systems either.

    I thought Google+ was already being slowly marched towards the back of the barn with a shotgun wielding Larry Page in tow.

    She has a great voice.
    It was google pay that I signed up to, only to discover after I'd done that, that I can't even use it here in Ireland. :(

    I bought a bottle of French Champagne for New Year's Eve online and the seller was a bum who didn't manage to send it on time. Will have to go out and buy another one personally. Ugh.
