Waste of resources trying to shut these places down. It's the same as piratebay; if you manage to shut one place down 2 more pop up.

This pisses me off. I mean, I get it....but fuck.

It's not my fault that the NFL has exclusive rights with DirecTV, and my house is in a temperate rain forest surrounded by gigantic evergreens. I'm more than willing to pay to watch the NFL games, but what are my options?? Oh, that's right - none. Fuck you US government. Fuck you NFL.

That really sucks for an American abroad like me who uses online channels to watch everything I can't in America. But sports are number one.

I'm glad I didn't plan a Super Bowl party now. I guess I will be at a bar at 8 AM on Monday

God damn it. Some fucking cat in my barn decided to flip a switch to shut off water to 140 cows during the night. I wish I knew which one it was so I could shoot it.

Before anybody reports me as a cat killer I'm not seriously going to shoot any. Duct tape over the switch they flipped will have to do.... Though that .22 rifle is tempting to use

The lid to my brand new trash can went missing this morning. It was windy, but even the lid on my old crummy ones, and every other lid up and down the street can be found, but not my brand new one. Nope, it's effing gone.

I would generally be against cat killing but that is seriously one homicidal cat. You could be next if you're not careful.

Had to go to the doctor today and get a shot in my ass. I'm greeted by a nurse that I recognize and a really attractive young asian woman who says "hi I'm a student and I'll be observing today". All I could think of to say was "uh ok." I know I missed a golden opportunity here to ratchet things up on the awkward meter by saying something ridiculously inappropriate, but for the life of me I can't really think of anything even after the fact.

We don't actually own this house. We're renting from a close friend as a favor to her....long story.

Now that my health has gone down the tubes in recent months, this is hurting in areas much more important than DirecTV.

So yeah, I chose to move here, but I feel like I chose it in the same way I choose to walk down my stairs one step at a time, as opposed to leaping down 12 at once.

Ok, it's almost 2 a.m. I just re-read what I wrote, and it didn't make much sense, but I'm tired so screw it. Can't you just let me bitch without busting my chops? If I have yet another seizure tomorrow, I'm blaming it on you!

The cats might actually come out pretty good in all this. Now that my anger at them is down, I decided I should buy them a cat house and put it back in the corner where they climb all over the pumps and motors to keep warm and fuck things up in the process.

Now if they don't like the house I buy them, I'll be pissed.

Not long after I first moved to Korea, I visited a doctor's office because of some digestion problems. The doctor, who spoke decent English, told me I needed to get a shot, so he sent me to his nurse, who spoke very little English. When I went into the room to receive my shot, she said, "Drop your pants," so I did. What she meant to say was, "Slightly pull down your pants so that I can give you a shot on the top of your buttocks." I didn't know that, and neither did she. But she did have a big smile when I left. I bet she started learning English more after that day. See. I am a great teacher!

Had to share this email and how it started. It may not be funny to anyone else, but, needless to say, I got a good laugh out of it.

"So Mat came at my desk, and explained me the original problem which I think some of us got confused by the email title."

Yes, I do believe there is some confusion there and a mess to clean up.

You know how you get those enticements to register a new product and get a chance to win something? Well, they aren't all scams. Just found out that I won $1000 for registering my new HP laptop!

You are completely free to bitch. I'm just sayin', blaming the NFL for where you live makes about as much sense as hockey in Phoenix.

Cool. I'm trying to remember the last time I won something. That probably makes its own thread, actually.

Yesterday, we discovered a light in the boys bathroom, over the shower that we didn't remember being there. We have been in the house for almost 3 years now. No wonder it was so damn dark in there.

I notice that I tend to have the same three typos repeatedly... I hit "2" instead of "S," "thing" and "think" tend to get swapped & nearly every time I type "relationship" I mistakenly substitute a "T" at the end instead of the "P."

I sure wish there was one facebook application I could block to get rid of all the fucking "CINDY JUST ENTERED THE WIN-FREE-JUICE SWEEPSTAKES" updates I get. I mean, it's everything from orange juice to ipads. Do these companies write their own app for each of these items? I try to hide all from the app and I get "Hide Win Free Juice" instead of "Hide all Free Item Sweepstakes App" or something.

And yes I know I could just hide the users, that isn't a good option in this case.

Frustrating.

While it helps, it still contains aspects of the new design, which is slow as shit. And switching back doesn't always stay switched back - it occaisonally kicks you back to the new design.
