Little things that annoy the hell out of you

[Edmond Dantes]

@Ed Oscuro... without having played DeathKeep, I can't comment on how bad the "reviews" are. But the game seems interesting and I've been into oldschool FPSes recently (taking on Duke 3D right now).

Speaking of Duke 3D... in Episode 2, one monitor simply displays the number "1138" and later in the level the same number is on a wall that contains a secret. I'm wondering if that's its only significance, or if 1138 has some hidden meaning (like maybe its someone's phone number or something?)

....

Also, animation fans (particularly bronies) who are fucking hypocrites. As in they criticize other cartoons for things that they let slide in their beloved MLP. An eighties cartoon has animation glitches? It's a sign of how bad they were. MLP has animation glitches? It's something to make a meme about and only adds to the enjoyment. Seriously, fuck these guys.

Laptop CD trays that just fly out whenever they feel like it just because you pick the laptop up.

yes

It's been forever since I've had a laptop that did it [mostly since it's been a while since I've had a laptop with an optical drive... ], but you'd just nudge the thing and it would seem to think "you probably want to put a CD in!" and fire it off. So, I'd tape the drive shut.

That image made me giggle. Then I read the whole thing down. Panel 3 made me sad. Why does that panel exist. I got a headache from reading that.

As for what KAI said, the only time it's really annoying is when someone is honestly using those words and not just being silly. Fuck those people.

Tales from The Olden Days: Bad Game Reviews

All music in DeathKeep is stored as .WAV files on the CD-Rom, thus a 4x CD-Rom drive is highly recommended. What's odd, however, is the fact that the music plays back with a lot of hiss in the background--but the .WAV files themselves contain no hiss. Apparently the music player is introducing this hiss.

The cutest thing about that review is how he shits on the game and still gives it a 75 overall.

Liars. I hate liars, especially those who like to use 'white lies.'

You'd hate Japan. Imagine an entire country with that attitude.

I hate lying myself. It feels disgusting.

And then there is a entire theory that the human brain evolved as much as it did because the need to deceive and to keep track of others deception. As the lies needed to get more complex to stay on top of others so did the brain.

So, to lie is to human. apparently.

Oh, same thing happened to me once, it sux.

When you buy something second hand and it doesn't come with all the necessary components, so you have to buy those later.

My computer deciding to hang at random because of graphics card issues. I've tried a driver update to no avail, it'll just rarely hang the entire system (like no keyboard response, whatever sound/music playing stutters as though it's 'locked') and force a hard reset. I think it doesn't like Windows XP, so I'll likely have to shell out money for Windows 7 to avoid this shit and still have a 3D card. I don't use anything terribly new though; if I went with the easier to obtain Windows 8, I'd hate the interface, but would the compatibility with older stuff be shit too? That's why I'm leaning towards just getting Windows 7.

I hate having to update my computer, I find installing new OSes such a chore because I spent forever tweaking little settings to get it the way I want.

[Edmond Dantes]

That might not necessarily be a driver/software issue, Roo. Issues like that can also be caused by overheating, or damaged/faulty cards or sockets.

THX-1138 of course.

YouTube (I know, it's a shock to seem them here on this topic) making it so your subscriptions' videos stop at one point. 'Scuse me while I look through all 72 subscribed channels to get to the new videos (especially since their watch later thing for some reason is fucking limited to 200 for no discernible reason).

[Edmond Dantes]

Speaking of Youtube, I feel dirty now.

Thanks to their "recommended for you" thing, I found out that Nostalgia Critic had done a review of... Sailor Moon. Oh fucking God. My first instinct was "don't watch it, don't even give it the time of day, because you know Nostalgia Critic is an annoying, ignorant hack." But I just had to know, and I watched it.

Now if you'll excuse me, I have to go wipe the filfth off... then prepare a response video, because I can't let this travesty stand.

Second potentially good run on ibara arrange ruined by...my controller dying half way through the game.

ibara does these things on purpose. wait til it sends the axe murderer to pay you a visit on your next good run.

[Jonst]

Yeah,I believe it does! I think I was improving at rate that it just couldn't handle...so the rate of sabotage ramped up! I give up...for now,as I'm out of funds for a new controller.
